Electric switch e.g. pressure switch, for use in e.g. kitchen appliance, has actuating element including contact front surface and disk lateral surface, which forms striking surface for operating pressure switch

摘要

The switch has a switch housing for retaining contact parts, and a disk like actuating element (15) for adjusting switching positions. The actuating element has a flat contact front surface (16) and a disk lateral surface (17), which is provided with projections (18, 19). The contact front surface forms a handle for a pressure switch, and the disk lateral surface forms a striking surface for operating the pressure switch. A deformable bellows (27) is provided below the actuating element, and is produced from rubber-like material such as silicone.
