Abstract

A switch with a selective release having a stroke armature activated by an electromagnet in response to a release current to actuate a switch latch. A lever arrangement encloses a stroke armature in such a fashion that it can be swiveled by the stroke armature from a rest position into a position in which the stroke armature may be rapidly moved to impact on the latch.
