Abstract

The invention relates to a switching device for a vehicle horn of a vehicle having an actuation element by means of which the vehicle horn is triggered when pressure is applied by an operator. In order to make the switching device particularly user-friendly, the invention provides for the actuation element to be mounted on a pantograph device in such a way that the actuation element can move exclusively in a direction which is predefined by the pantograph device.
