    Electric switch
    The present invention relates to an electrical switch, in particular a switchelectric comprising a rocker operating key. Background of the invention
    The currently known electrical switches comprise a key mounted on a base provided with a drive point, said rocker key being around an axis. This key defines two positions: a first contact or electrical connection position and a second disconnection or rest position.
    15 From this second rest position, when the user presses the key, it goes to the first contact position, where it can be held or, if desired, can automatically return to the second position, for example by means of a spring. When this automatic return occurs, each time the key is pressed, the electrical contact will be switched on or off alternately.
    20 If desired, more than one key can be placed on the same base, and a frame can be placed around the key or keys.
    Usually these keys are tilting with respect to an axis located in its middle portion,
    25 since the electrical connection point is also usually in its middle position. This is because it is advisable that the electrical switches have standard parts whose arrangement does not depend on the mounting position, so that the largest possible number of parts can be used for switches that can be mounted oriented differently.
    30 However, these electrical switches comprising a rocker with respect to a central axis have some drawbacks. First, the surface of the key that the user must press for the connection or disconnection is half of the useful surface of the key, which if the other half is pressed, the connection or disconnection will not occur
    35 because the key will not rock. This can be uncomfortable for the user.


    In addition, if several keys are placed next to each other on the same conventional switch, these keys are placed with their tilt axes aligned.
    Therefore, the objective of the present invention is to provide an electrical switch in the5 that the useful surface of the key that the user can press for the connection is maximized
    or disconnection
    A further objective of the present invention is to provide an electrical switch that allows its parts to be equal regardless of the orientation in which the switch is mounted, keeping the connection point in a centered position.
    Another object of the present invention is to provide an electrical switch comprising a plurality of keys, its separation being minimal, this separation being only to avoid friction between the keys. Description of the invention
    With the electrical switch of the invention, the aforementioned drawbacks are resolved, presenting other advantages that will be described below.
    The electrical switch according to the present invention defines a front surface and comprises: - at least one rocker key, which swings around a corresponding tilt axis,
    25 -and at least one base provided with at least one electrical connection and disconnection actuation point located at a point corresponding to the center of the key, where the key tilt presses the corresponding at least one actuation point and causes the connection or electrical disconnection, and it is characterized in that the key comprises two sections separated by the axis of
    30, a first direct transmission section of the driving force and a second portion that does not transmit the driving force to the driving point, this second section of the key comprising a surface less than 5% of the total front surface.
    According to a preferred embodiment, the second section of the key has an area less than 2% of the total front surface, for example the key only has one section


    of transmission of the driving force, which occupies 100% of the surface of the key.
    In addition, the electrical switch according to the present invention may comprise5 a plurality of rocker keys each with a corresponding rocker axis,with at least two pivot axes being at least two keys parallel to each other.
    Advantageously, the base comprises at least one actuation point associated with a key, and said actuation point is preferably located under the center of the corresponding key 10.
    Each key may occupy half or less of said front surface, and said plurality of keys are preferably arranged in rows and columns.
    The following advantages are achieved with the electric switch according to the present invention:
    - The actuation surface of the key is practically the entire key, which is more comfortable for the user, since it can press practically the entire key;
    - When the switch comprises more than one key, it allows to place them very close to each other, only with a minimum separation to avoid friction;
    25 -As the actuation point can be arranged in a centered position, all the parts of the switch of the present invention can also be used when the switch is installed in any position;
    - The force that the user must exert to operate the switch is the same as in the 30 conventional switches, since the key travel is the same, but allows the surface of the key that can be pressed to be greater. Brief description of the drawings
    35 For a better understanding of what has been exposed, some drawings are attached in which, schematically and only by way of non-limiting example, a case is represented


    practical implementation.
    Figures 1 to 4 are front views of an electrical switch of the present invention, according to various embodiments;
    5 Figure 5 is a sectional view of the electrical switch of the present invention in its rest position;
    Figure 6 is a sectional view of the electrical switch of the present invention in its operating position; Y
    Figure 7 is a plan view of the base of the electrical switch of the present invention, comprising two bases. 15 Description of a preferred embodiment
    The electrical switch according to the present invention defines a front surface 1, and comprises one or more bases 2 and one or more keys 4, each key being preferably of the same size in case there is more than one.
    It should be noted that the switch according to an embodiment of the invention is preferably of the type of low-rise wall switches, especially intended for use below 1.20m high, although it could also be installed at any suitable height.
    It should be noted that the front surface 1 defined by the electrical switch according to the present invention can be defined in the following ways, according to its configuration:
    - one or more keys 4 without frame (figures 1 and 3); 30 -one or more keys 4 with frame 8 (figures 2 and 4).
    It should be noted that the electrical switch according to the present invention may comprise any suitable number of keys arranged next to each other, or forming rows and columns, although for reasons of simplicity in the figures only
    35 have represented realizations with two and four keys.


    In addition, said base 2, or each base 2, is provided with at least one connection and disconnection actuation point 3, each key 4 being tilting with respect to a tilting axis 5, which by means of which tilting, presses said corresponding point drive 3 and causes the electrical connection or disconnection.
    5 Said tilting axis 5 separates a first section 4a of the key, of transmission of the driving force from a second section 4b of the key, which does not transmit the driving force to the driving point 3, this second section 4b comprising key 4 an area less than 5% of the total front surface 1.
    10 It should be noted that the second section 4b may occupy an area approximately or less than 2% of the front surface 1, or even the tilting axis 5 may be arranged on one edge of the key 4, so that the first section 4a substantially occupies the entire key being the second section 4b non-existent.
    In addition, in the event that the switch comprises more than one key, at least two of the tilt axes 5 of a switch are preferably parallel to each other, that is, they are not aligned, as in conventional electrical switches with more of a key.
    20 It should be noted that in the figures 1 to 4 the tilting axes 5 have been represented in the upper part of the key 4, but that they can be interchangeably in the lower part of the key 4, or in any suitable position as long as it is displaced with respect to the center of the front surface 1 of the switch.
    25 As can also be seen in Figures 1 to 4, each key 4 occupies half or less of said front surface 1.
    In addition, each actuation point 3 is advantageously located under the center of each key 4, as can be seen in Figure 7.
    It should be noted that the actuation of the switch according to the present invention can be carried out in any suitable way, for example, by an electronic drive mechanism or by a mechanical drive mechanism
    35 conventional.


    Only by way of non-limiting example, a possible mechanical actuation of the switch according to the present invention, comprising an actuator 6, is described below.
    5 It should be noted that an electrical switch comprising two bases is shown in Figure 7. In order to allow the display of the actuator 6 and the bases 2, in this figure the corresponding keys 4 have been removed, and in the upper half the actuator 6 has been removed.
    10 In Figures 5 and 6 it can be seen that the base 2 comprises a tilting actuator 6 formed by a proximal section 6a and a distal section 6b, which define an angle greater than or equal to 90 degrees. Furthermore, said proximal section 6a of the actuator 6 comprises an axis of rotation 7 at its end furthest from the center of the front surface 1 and said distal section 6b is in contact with the actuation point 3 when said at least one key is pressed
    15 4.
    As indicated above, with the electric switch according to the present invention the user has a larger surface area for actuating the switch, in particular, almost the entire surface of the key 4, being able to place several keys 4
    20 next to each other, all the keys being the same size, unlike conventional electrical switches, which only have half of the surface of the key for operation.
    Although reference has been made to a specific embodiment of the invention, it is
    It is clear to one skilled in the art that the described electrical switch is susceptible to numerous variations and modifications, and that all the mentioned details can be replaced by other technically equivalent ones, without departing from the scope of protection defined by the appended claims.
