Abstract
It consists of a body ( ) having a sliding key ( ) that may activate some side actuators ( ), and a central actuator ( ), which act over the upper base of the cones ( ) of a membrane ( ) triggering a determined part of a circuit ( ). For this purpose, there are at least two fixed guides ( ) between the key ( ) and the actuators ( ) to guide the sliding of a runner ( ) rigidly joined to the key ( ) that serves to activate the actuators ( ). The runner ( ) includes a sliding strip ( ) having pivots ( ) housed in some crossed slots ( ) formed in the fixed guides ( ), permitting the guided displacements of the key ( ) with the runner ( ) in two perpendicular directions to activate the mentioned actuators ( ).
