  • On and off switches or toggle switches are state of the art or switches, all known basic circuit variants realize, known. For each corresponding circuit variant a separate switch manufactured and offered. This is particularly so for larger electrical installation work in the housing sector, Home or office area is very complex because of a variety of different Circuit variants, depending on the desired equipment, must be realized, which in turn require differentiated switches. This variety of switches is due to warehousing, as well the different material requirements on site during installation even very complex, because there is always a large number of different types Switch must be available.
  • the state of the art includes switches for all circuit variants known, each having a switch of the corresponding circuit variant assigned. As a rule, these switches have dependencies of the circuit to be realized two or three interrupters on. Defined distances within the interrupters must be used be observed, the symmetry is within the switch base and air and creepage distances are defined accordingly.
  • the Regulations for the electrical and geometric structure of Switches are specified in the VDE or ILC regulations.
  • the object of the invention to develop an electrical universal rear derailleur, which in an electrical component in the form of a rear derailleur all Basic circuit variants, such as single-pole shutdown, shutdown single-pole illuminated, control switch single-pole, switch double-pole, Two-pole illuminated switch-off, two-pole control switch-off, Changeover circuit, changeover circuit illuminated, changeover control circuit, Double changeover circuit, double changeover circuit illuminated, series connection, series connection illuminated, as well Provides auxiliary functions, such as illuminated switches, the corresponding desired circuit variant simply from should be selectable from the outside.

  • auxiliary functions such as illuminated switches, the corresponding desired circuit variant simply from should be selectable from the outside
  • this object is achieved by an electrical universal switching mechanism solved according to claim 1, in which almost all known per se Circuit variants, as listed above as an example are, the selection of the respective desired circuit variant through a combination of defined entrance openings and defined outlet openings, which are then electrically connected are realized via selection elements that can be actuated from the outside.
  • circuit variants are within the switching and contact chambers in the lower base block, the circuit variants made of single-pole, Illuminated from single-pole, from double-pole, control from single-pole, from two-pole, from two-pole illuminated in two switching variants, two-way circuit, Changeover circuit illuminated, control changeover circuit, Double changeover circuit, double changeover circuit illuminated. Series connection and connected in series illuminated and switched, whereby each circuit variant defined inputs and outputs in the lower Base block and in the upper base block for electrical connection are assigned.
  • the circuit variant to be implemented is implemented via at least one selection element defined and selected.
  • the selection elements are designed in the form of movable elements and close or open while moving within the Base block the entrance and exit openings on the front sides of the lower and upper base block.
  • the moving selection elements that select the circuit variants are movable between the lower and upper base block slidably arranged such that these inside on the end faces slide along the base block, these in turn openings have the openings in the end faces of the base block are compatible and close or release selected openings.
  • the movable ones that select the different circuit variants Selection elements can face both the entrance and exit openings, as well as being displaceable relative to one another.
  • the selection elements can be in their simplest form as angle profiles be formed, which the end face and parts of the surface of the Switch and contact chambers overlap triangular, the the front sliding part has openings and the above of the switching and contact chambers sliding part of the selection element reaches through the upper base block to form a selection lever.
  • the selection elements can also be made according to Art be formed by U-profiles, a larger U-profile, which Entry and exit openings covered at the same time, also feasible is like several smaller U-shaped selection elements that itself within the switching and contact chambers for tilt stabilization support.
  • the selection elements can be moved within end positions in the base block, with fixed reference points on the movement path each assigned defined, permanently positioned circuit variants are.
  • the selection elements can on their path of movement within the Base block the upper and / or lower base block under training reach through a selector lever so that the path of movement of the Selection elements external, from the surface or the face of the Base block is adjustable and changeable.
  • the selection element which is movably arranged in the base block is designed such that that it is according to the selection of the switching variant on the defined point of the movement path at the same time that of the corresponding Circuit variant assigned input openings in the Base block opens and all other unnecessary entrance openings closed accordingly. This will consistently result in misallocation avoided.
  • the selection element which in its simplest Form also a flat sliding element or sliding element, according to Art can be a mask, this has a selection lever or Grip on which is a groove within the surface of the top Passes through the base block and is guided in this groove, this Groove is limited by end positions or stop elements.
