Load-force-independent triggering device

A load-force-independent triggering device for a load exerting a force on it that is held in a CLOSED position of the triggering device and released in an OPEN position of the triggering device, comprising:

• a housing;
• a triggering lever, which is connected to a triggering gear via a steering lever, the triggering lever being swivel-mounted on a first housing axis, the triggering gear being swivel-mounted on a second housing axis and the steering lever being swivel-mounted on a steering-lever axis on the triggering lever and on a second steering-lever axis on the triggering gear;
• a spring device configured to act on the triggering lever;
• and
• a locking device, by which the triggering device is fixed in the CLOSED position,
• wherein the steering lever has an angular design, and, in the CLOSED position of the triggering device, is configured to contact a first contact surface in the housing and, in the OPEN position of the triggering device, is configured to contact a second contact surface in the housing,
• wherein the two steering-lever axes are positioned at the first contact surface immediately before a self-locking dead-center position towards the first housing axis and on the second contact surface outside of dead-center position, and
• wherein the spring device comprises a tension spring, which is arranged between the triggering lever and the triggering gear and is configured to exert a force on the triggering lever in a direction of the OPEN position of the triggering device.
