Abstract
The electric switch comprises at least one key (4) that pivots about a pivoting axis (5) and a base (2) provided with at least one electric connection and disconnection actuation point (3), so that the pivoting of the key 4 causes the application of pressure to at least one actuation point 3 and causes the electric connection or disconnection, and it is characterized in that the base (2) comprises at least one pivoting actuator (6). A low-cost mechanical type electric switch is obtained which automatically returns to its rest position, and which for the user has the same sensation as an electronic type electric switch.
