An illuminated, waterproof and dust-proof switching element for converting a linear movement of a push button into an electrical switching signal, has a housing and a cap which is axially displaceable within the housing along a stroke path between two end bearings. The cap has a protective membrane for external sealing that is formed from a flexible plastic material by way of multicomponent injection molding. The switching element includes within the housing at least four contacts, a pressure compensation element, a circuit board on which at least one push button and at least two lighting elements are arranged, a silicone pad as a restoring element, a guide, an end stop, a cap with integrally molded protective membrane, and a frame. At least two pairs of the contacts have a like contour including a linear arrangement in the region of a plug and rectangular arrangement in the interior. |
