Abstract: A rotary drive for a switch actuated by a toggle lever includes an operative connection which swivels, a first catch element on the operative connection, coupled to the toggle lever, and a second catch element on the operative connection. A mounting plate parallel to the switch base and a rotatable shaft are provided, the rotatable shaft disposed through the mounting plate. The rotary drive further includes a swivel arm on the shaft, a rotary knob coupled to the shaft configured to rotate the shaft. A mechanical connection couples the swivel arm to the second catch element, converting movement of the shaft into a movement of the operative connection. A swivel movement of the toggle lever is transferred to the second catch element, and the swivel arm enables the operative connection to swivel through a rotation of the shaft to move the toggle lever.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for determining a pixel gray scale value image, particularly for a multi-dimensional image system. According to said method a first modulation signal (M1) which is emitted at the emitting end and is reflected on an object that is to be recorded is correlated with a second modulation signal (M2) and is recorded at the receiving end based on at least two correlation signals (Ua, Ub or Ia, Ib) that are proportional to the respective received first modulation signal (M1). One of said modulation signals (M1, M2) is phase shifted in several phase steps (?k) at the emitting or receiving end and a differential signal (D) is determined for each phase step (?k) based on the correlation signals (Ua, Ub or Ia, Ib,) and a pixel gray scale value (PGray) is determined based on said difference signal (D) independently of interfering signals.
