Switching device, in particular for an ignition-starter switch in a motor vehicle

摘要

The switching device has an actuation surface and a force transmission element disposed in a holding device. The holding device has a mechanical guide that defines a motion of the force transmission element. If pressure is exerted on the actuation surface, the force transmission element at least partially performs a rotary motion in dependence on an actuation path traveled by the actuation surface. During the process, force transmission to the switching element is deflected and guided away from the switching element as soon as the force transmission element starts to at least partially perform the rotary motion.
