Abstract

Multipole contact block with sudden disconnection utilisable in a position switch or a push button. The contact parts have connection lands set according to three connection planes (P1-P3) and the movable element has two contact bridges located in a frontal plane PR to co-operate with the end connection planes P1, P3, as well as one or two other contact bridges located in another frontal plane PF to co-operate with the median connection plane P2, in such a way as to enable “normally open” or “normally closed” functions of the contacts associated with the median connection plane P2.
