| 20110067987 | ELECTRICAL SWITCH - An electrical switch having a housing, with a contact system being located in the interior of the housing. A movable operating member, in particular in the form of a rocker, is arranged on the housing for switching action on the contact system. An opening is located in the housing, for the switching action of the operating member. An elastic seal for the opening is attached to the housing. The operating member comprises a moving inner part, which is located in the interior of the housing, in particular an inner rocker which can pivot, and a moving outer part, which is located on the exterior of the housing, in particular an outer rocker which can pivot. The seal completely covers the opening. The outer part moves the inner part, via the elastically moving seal, for switching action on the contact system. | 03-24-2011 |
