Abstract
A device for locking a switch blade (10, 12) with a stock rail (14, 16) is proposed, whereby the switch blade is held down on a supporting surface only when it is in locked and unlocked positions. When the switch blade (10, 12) is in the locked position it is acted upon by a resultant force (53) that prevents both a rotation of the switch blade and its rising up.
