Vorrichtungen der eingangs genannten Art sind im Stand der Technik in großer Zahl bekannt und werden generell verwendet, um Stromkreise reversibel zu schließen. Die bekannten Vorrichtungen weisen jedoch den Nachteil auf, dass sie nicht ausgebildet sind, um eine Aktivieren/ Deaktivieren einer Eingabeeinrichtung eines Computers zu bewirken und es somit bisher nicht ermöglicht ist, eine solche Eingabeeinrichtung kurzzeitig von Hand abzuschalten, wie dies beispielsweise zum Ausüben eines Putzvorganges oder für ein Vermeiden ungewünschter Eingaben vorteilhaft ist. Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es deshalb, eine Schalter- Vorrichtung zu schaffen, mittels derer eine Eingabeeinrichtung kurzzeitig von Hand abschaltbar ist.Devices of the type mentioned in the art are known in large numbers and are generally used to close circuits reversible. However, the known devices have the disadvantage that they are not designed to effect activation / deactivation of an input device of a computer and thus it is not yet possible to turn off such an input device by hand for a short time, as for example to perform a cleaning process or is advantageous for avoiding unwanted inputs. The object of the invention is therefore to provide a switch device by means of which an input device is temporarily switched off manually.
Für eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art wird diese Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, dass der Schalterhebel mit zwei voneinander elektrisch isolierten Kontaktgebereinrichtungen mit jeweils zwei elektrisch miteinander verbindbaren Kontaktflächen zusammenwirkt, um eine gleichzeitig unterbrechbare elektrische Verbindung zweier voneinander unabhängiger elektrischer Stromkreise zu schaffen.For a device of the type mentioned, this object is achieved in that the switch lever cooperates with two mutually electrically insulated Kontaktgebereinrichtungen with two electrically interconnectable contact surfaces to create a simultaneously interruptible electrical connection of two independent electrical circuits.
