Abstract
The invention relates to a switching device comprising:—a first assembly (1) comprising an actuation member (10) that can take a rest position and an actuation position;—a second assembly (2) mounted on the first assembly (1) and comprising a mobile bridge (22) bearing mobile contacts (221) actuated with respect to fixed contacts (201) between an opening position and a closing position so as to respectively open or close an electrical circuit according to the position of the actuation member (10), in which:—the mobile bridge (22) is actuatable in rotation about an axis of rotation (A) and can take a third position so as to open the electrical circuit when the first assembly (1) is mechanically disconnected from the second assembly (2).
Claims12
A switching device comprising:
- a first assembly comprising an actuation member that is able to take a rest position and an actuation position,
- a second assembly mounted on the first assembly and comprising a movable bridge supporting movable contacts actuated relative to fixed contacts between an open position and a closed position in order respectively to open or close an electric circuit depending on the position of the actuation member,
- wherein:
- the movable bridge can be rotated about a rotation axis and can take a third position in order to open the electric circuit when the first assembly is mechanically disconnected from the second assembly.
