Problems solved by technology

[0010] In fact, overturning of the button may occur when the user does not press on the center of the button relative to the central part on which the return spring acts, which leads to a bad fit of the egg with the driver or even causes said button to get stuck in the in its opening

Embodiment Construction

[0037] figure 1 An electrical switching device is schematically shown. The electrical switching device may be a simple circuit breaker or a two-way switch depending on the type of switching mechanism 50 associated therewith.

[0038] In all cases, the device comprises a box 40 with four side walls along the edge of an open floor whose center is provided with an opening 41 for accommodating a pivotally mounted switching mechanism. Switch drive 51 on the base of 50.

[0039] In known manner, the switching drive 51 is adapted to pivot between two stable positions to bring the movable electrical contact into contact or out of contact with a fixed electrical contact (not shown).

[0040] The electrical switching device also includes a button 10 accessible by the user, which closes off the front face of the case 40 . The button 10 is adapted to translate between a rest position and a recessed position by sliding along the side walls of the case 40 .

[0041] In order to cooperat...

Abstract

The invention relates to an electric switching device comprising, inside a housing (40): a pivoting driver (51) that can pivot between two stable positions for bringing a moving electric contactor into or out of contact with / from a fixed electrical contactor; a push-button (10) accessible to the user; an egg insulator (20) connected to the push-button that can interact with the pivoting driver for making it pivot between the two stable positions, and; means for translationally guiding the push-button inside the housing between a pushed-in position and a position of rest. According to the invention, the translational guiding means comprise two joining members (30A, 30B) joined to one another via a pivot axis while crossing one another and interacting with the housing and the push-button for moving together in a scissor-like manner.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to electrical switching equipment, such as circuit breakers and two-way switches. [0002] The invention relates in particular to such an electrical switching device comprising in a housing: [0003] - a switching drive adapted to pivot between two stable positions for bringing the movable electrical contact into or out of contact with the fixed electrical contact; [0004] - buttons accessible (manipulable) by the user; [0005] - an egg-shaped (insulating) piece connected to said button and adapted to cooperate with said switching drive to pivot the switching drive between two stable positions; and [0006] - means for translationally guiding said button in said housing between a recessed position and a rest (rest) position. Background technique [0007] Electrical switching devices such as the above-mentioned two-way switches or circuit breakers of the commonly referred to as "push-push" type are known, whe...
