Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de fonctionnement muni d'un bouton d'opération à presser et d'un élément de support pour guider le bouton d'opération dans la direction de la pression. Le bouton d'opération présente une première section guidée (22) et une seconde section guidée (24) ; l'élément de support présente une première surface de guidage (34) et des secondes surfaces de guidage (43, 44). La première surface de guidage (34) entoure la première section guidée (22). La première section guidée (22) peut tourner tout en restant en contact coulissant avec la première surface de guidage (34) ; sa forme permet à l'axe central de rotation (O) de la première section guidée (22) d'être maintenu à une position constante. Les secondes surfaces de guidage (43, 44) sont perpendiculairement opposées l'une à l'autre (G) et perpendiculaires à l'axe central de rotation (O) et, simultanément, en parallèle avec l'axe perpendiculaire (G). La seconde section guidée (24) peut entrer en contact coulissant avec les secondes surfaces de guidage (43, 44) ; la position du contact coulissant est variable dans la direction perpendiculaire à l'axe perpendiculaire (G).
