Abstract: A joystick device 10 disclosed herein provides a return function for urging a lever 20 to its initial position. The device includes a first spring 30 and a second spring 40, each of which extends along the lever 20 and is disposed between an upper spring seat 32 and a lower spring seat 34. The springs 30 and 40 are subjected to compression to provide an urging force as the lever 20 is tilted from the initial position.

Abstract: A multipolar switch includes a first electrical contact zone connected to a first electrical circuit, and a second electrical contact zone connected to a second electrical circuit. In addition, a first part made from an electrically conducting material is arranged on and at a distance from the first electrical contact zone, and a second part made from an electrically conducting material is arranged on the first part. An electrically insulating layer is arranged between the first part and the second part so as to electrically insulate them from one another. So configured, the first part is configured to be elastically deformed when being mechanically solicited in an actuating direction of the multipolar switch, and the second part is configured to be elastically deformed or be displaced in the actuating direction of the multipolar switch, between a rest configuration and an activated configuration.

Abstract: The invention relates to an emergency stop device, comprising: an electric module suited to being soldered onto a printed circuit board (PCB), comprising a body, at least two fixed contacts arranged in the body and at least one contact actuator bearing a moveable contact able to connect said fixed contacts electrically, an actuating module suited to being mechanically coupled to the electric module and to being mounted on a panel (P), the actuating module comprising a body and an actuator moveable with respect to the body, the body comprising a so-called rear part able to extend through the panel (P) on a side opposite to the actuator and to receive the electric module, the actuating module being able to be actuated by an operator between the following positions: a rest position in which the moveable contact ensures an electrical connection between the fixed contacts, and an activated position in which the actuator exerts a depression force on the contact actuator so as to break the electrical connection b

Abstract: The present invention relates to a switch comprising a casing (1, 9), an actuator member (2, 3) pivotably mounted in the casing (1, 9) and integral with a switching control rod (10), capable of occupying a central position (A) and a rocked position (C), a pusher (5) slidably mounted in the actuator member (2, 3) in an incoming/outgoing direction substantially parallel to the plane of symmetry of the rocking, remarkable in that it further comprises a rockably mobile lock (4) on an elastic support (11), said lock (4) being distinct from the pusher (5) and capable of assuming a first position where it is interposed on the trajectory of the actuator member (2, 3) and a second position where it cooperates with the pusher (5) so that a thrust on the pusher (5) urges the lock (4) and allows the latter to disengage from the trajectory of the actuator member (2, 3) towards the rocked position (C).

Abstract: The present invention concerns a contact module able to set up electric contact between two fixed contacts (14) by means of a mobile contact (15) when pressure is applied to a transmission member in an actuation direction (X), comprising: a body (7) carrying the two fixed contacts (14), a transmission member (3, 5) carrying the mobile contact (15) and sliding within said body (7) in the actuation direction (X). Said transmission member is formed of two parts (3, 5) and is able to contract in the actuation direction (X) when excessive pressure is applied to said member after electric contact has been made. The mobile contact (15) is able to separate itself from at least one fixed contact (14) under the action of elastic means (12) when the transmission member (3, 5) is in its contracted state. The invention also concerns an enabling switch incorporating said contact module.
