Abstract
A switch, in particular a low-voltage circuit breaker, in plug-in technology includes a withdrawal shaft to move the switch from an operating position into a removal position; a force store including a storage spring unloaded during withdrawal; and an unlatching shaft which, as the circuit breaker is withdrawn, is configured to rotate into an unlatching position, unloading of the storage spring taking place when the unlatching shaft is in the unlatching position. To permit unloading of the force store during the withdrawal, the unlatching shaft includes a driver element, spaced radially apart from its axis of rotation and configured to rest in a sliding manner on an outer contour of a rotatably mounted cam disk. The withdrawal shaft and the cam disk are connected via a connecting element which transforms the rotation of the withdrawal shaft into a corresponding rotation of the cam disk and therefore, of the unlatching shaft.
