SWITCHING DEVICE HAVING A DAMPING ELEMENT FOR THE CONTACT SYSTEM DURING ABRUPT SWITCHING ON

摘要

The invention relates to a switching device having a damping element (10) for the contact system during abrupt switching on, wherein the contact system has a contact slide (1) and a switching piece (2) movably guided therein, and wherein the movable switching piece (2) is mounted opposite a fixed switching piece (3). The invention is characterised in that the contact slide (1) has at least one projection (15) which is operatively connected to the damping element (10) when the switching device is switched on abruptly.
