If the corresponding conductive connection exists, this is referred to as switched on or switched-on state.
  • the transitions between the two states are accordingly, and as usual, referred to as switching on or off of the switching device 1.
  • the term closed contacts 4, 6 for switched on, as well as opened contacts 4, 6 for switched off can also be used synonymously.
  • the at least one movable contact 4 is arranged on a movable contact arm 3.
  • the switching device 1 has a so-called switching mechanism 2.
  • the switching mechanism 2 is a mechanical arrangement which controls the movements of the contact arm 3.
  • the switching mechanism 2, in the preferred and illustrated embodiment, in addition to the contact arm 3 further comprises a pawl 20 and a latch support 22.
  • the Fig. 4 . 6, 7, 8 and 9 show the corresponding modules solved by the other components of the switching device 1 in different views.
  • the manual shift lever 7 is connected to the contact arm 3 by means of a first bracket 5 and a tab 8 fastened to the first bracket 5.
  • the first bracket 5 is guided in a slot guide 9 of the pivotally mounted pawl 20.
  • the switching device 1 has a jump shut-off mechanism for manually caused jump-like separation of the contacts 4, 6. Except for this jump-breaking mechanism corresponds to the representational switching mechanism 2, according to the preferred embodiment, the switching mechanism 2 according to the EP 680661 B1 ,
  • the switching mechanism 2 has two substantially parallel support plates 25, between which the individual components are mounted.
  • a Verklinkungsstelle 24 is provided, on which the pawl 20 can engage, to form a so-called. Verklinkung.
  • the latch support 22 is pivotally mounted between the two support plates 25.
  • the pawl 20 is preferably formed as a metal part, and also pivotally mounted between the carrier plates 25.
  • a slot guide 9 is arranged, through which a part of the, preferably U-shaped bent, first bracket 5 engages.
  • the tab 8 is arranged, which is connected to the movable contact arm 3.
  • a push rod 10 is movably mounted.
  • the push rod 10 rests on a projection 11 of the manual shift lever 7. It should be noted at this point that the manual shift lever 7 can take this position without the contacts 4, 6 are actually contacted, such as when it is in the context of so-called. Free release with sealed hand lever 7 to trigger the switching device 1 and disconnecting the contacts 4, 6 comes.
  • the first bracket 5 mounted. To switch on the switching device 1, the manual shift lever 7 is rotated. This also changes the position of the projection 11 within the switching device 1. It is preferably provided that the manual shift lever 7 is constructed in several parts, and the projection 11 is part of an inner part of the manual shift lever 7.
  • the push rod 10 bears against the projection 11.
  • the push rod 10 has a corresponding length.
  • the push rod 10 is preferably rotatably mounted on the latch support 22.
  • the push rod 10 is preferably spring-loaded secured to the latch support 22, wherein the so-called push rod spring 13, which is preferably mounted on the latch support 22 itself, the push rod 10 is acted upon in the direction of the manual shift lever 7.
  • the push rod 10 is preferably formed as a plastic part and has according to the illustrated preferred embodiment, two legs which extend from the bearing point to the attack area 12, and thus form an opening.
  • the push rod 10 In the switched-on state of the switching device 1, the push rod 10 is located on the projection 11 of the manual shift lever 7, between this and the latch support 22. It is envisaged that from this state, an operation or rotation of the manual shift lever 7 moves the push rod 10. The push rod 10 further moves the pawl seat 22 and displaces it such that the latching of the pawl seat 22 is released with the pawl 20, thereby causing a "triggering" of the switch latch 2, thereby further the contacts 4, 6 are separated, by the switch lock 2. A detention of the movable contact 4 by means of the manual shift lever 7 in a position close to the housing-fixed contact 6 is thereby no longer possible. It is mentioned for the sake of completeness that from the described switched-on position of the manual shift lever 7 out an operation or rotation is possible only in one direction, which has a separation of the contacts 4, 6 result or should have.
  • the length of the push rod 10 is to be dimensioned such that a release of the latch takes place before it comes to a separation of the contacts 4, 6.
  • the Fig. 1 . 4 and 6 each show the switched-on state.
  • the Fig. 2 and 7 also show a state with closed contacts 4, 6, which can be seen on the manual shift lever 7, that this is already moved in the corresponding, causing a contact opening direction. It is also shown how the push rod 10 has already been moved, and with her a movement of the latch support 22 has been initiated, which leads to a release of the latch. This leads to the state according to the Fig. 3 and 8th in which the contacts are separated.
  • the push rod preferably has a concave engagement region 12 for engagement with the projection 11 of the manual shift lever 7.
  • the projection 11 further has a distinction to prevent premature sliding away of the push rod 10.
  • the contact separation takes place in a representational switching device 1 by the latch is released.
  • the Verklinkungsstelle 24 is only in Fig. 9 shown.
  • the housing 14 of the switching device 1 has a housing projection 15 in the region of the latch support 22, and that the push rod 10, in particular in the region of the bearing on the latch support 22, a stop region 16 for supporting the latch support 22 on the housing projection 15 after releasing the latch has.
  • the projection 11, the push rod 10 and thus also the latch support 22 is not too far away from the pawl 20. This can ensure that it comes again to a latching of the pawl 20 with the pawl support 22 when the manual shift lever 7 has returned to the off position.
  • Fig. 5 shows a section of the upper housing half 27 with the housing projection 15. In Fig. 4 this is also shown, wherein the upper half of the housing is shown partially cut. The view in Fig. 5 shows the part of the upper housing half 27 with a view into the interior, which is why the individual parts mirrored to the representation in Fig. 4 are arranged.
  • the subject switching device 1 in the context of so-called. Free release even with a manual shift lever 7, which is fixed in the position corresponding to the on state, can trigger, and it comes to a separation of the contacts 4, 6.
  • the jump break mechanism described herein relates to the manually caused disconnection the previously closed contacts 4, 6 by means of an operation of the manual shift lever 7.
  • the relevant operation regardless of the term “manually” also by means of an external mechanical actuator, which drives the manual shift lever 7.
