Abstract

See full text

An electric steering column switch for motor vehicles which includes a switching member pivotally mounted for pivotal movement about a pivot axis between predetermined positions. The switching member includes a locking cam that engages a locking lever which is mounted for swivelling movement with respect to the switching member. The locking lever has switch cams that correspond to the predetermined positions of the switching member and receive the locking cam to hold the switching member in one of the predetermined positions. A spring biases against the locking lever urging the lever in the direction of the locking cam. The spring is mounted to the switching member so that the spring pivots with the switching member and the locking cam. In this way, the spring applies consistent pressure against the locking lever and the adjacent locking cam.
