Abstract

An unlocking device for a control device (10) includes an actuating magnet (12) in a coil base (14) and/or in housing elements of the actuating magnet. An actuating element (16) can be displaced along a first axis (20) and releases, in an actuation position, a swivel path (22) for a control unit (24) arranged to swivel about a second axis (26). The control unit (24) has a locking element (30) which, when unlocked by the actuating element (16) via the control element (24), releases the trajectory (32) for the control device (10) to be actuated. The unlocking device also has a swiveling lever (34) guided in a housing part (28) to swivel. The second axis (26) is parallel to the first axis (20). The swiveling lever (34), at its free end and when the actuating magnet (12) is not actuated, contacts the actuating element (16). The locking element (30) is disposed on the other end of the swiveling lever (34) and maintains the control device (10) in the locked position.
