Control module for modular electrical switching device and obtained modular electrical switching device

A control module (10) for a modular electrical switching device (1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 1E) obtained by juxtaposing the control module (10) and at least one switching module (20), the switching module (20) comprising a switching casing (23) containing at least one fixed contact (24) and one moving contact (25) coupled to a transmission mechanism (26) that rotates about a rotation axis (A) and is provided with two coupling end pieces (21, 22) accessible on sides of the switching casing (23),

• the control module (10) comprising a control casing (13) containing an actuating mechanism (14) that rotates about a rotation axis arranged to coincide with the rotation axis (A) of the transmission mechanism (26),
• when the switching module (10) and the at least one control module (20) are juxtaposed, the actuating mechanism (14) being provided with two coupling end pieces (11, 12) accessible on the sides of the control casing (13), arranged to be complementary to the coupling end pieces (21, 22) of the at least one switching module (20) and aligned therewith on the same rotation axis (A) to allow axial fitting, when the control module (10) and the at least one switching module (20) are juxtaposed,
• the control module (10) comprising a control rod (3) coupled, on the one hand, to the actuating mechanism (14) through a front side of the control casing (13) and, on another hand, to an operating element (2) located outside of the control casing (13),
• the actuating mechanism (14) being provided with a front entry opening (30) accessible through the front side of the control casing (13) to receive an end of the control rod (3) and realize a front control of the control module (10),
• wherein the actuating mechanism (14) comprises two side entry openings (34, 35) accessible on the sides of the control casing (13), aligned with the rotation axis (A) of the actuating mechanism (14), and arranged to receive an end of the control rod (3) and realize a right side control or a left side control of the control module (10), respecting a same direction of operation on a right and on a left of the control module (10).
