Abstract
A mechanism is described for compression actuation, by means of a rocking key, of electric controls such as switches, change-over switches, selector switches and the like, in which there are provided at least one fixed contact () and one movable contact (), carried by a movable anchor (), rotatively actuated to bring the movable contact () towards or away from the fixed contact (), through a pin () operated by the rocking key () and pushed against said movable anchor by a compression spring (), where the pin acts against the movable anchor () by means of an articulated head or joint () shaped like a fork, so that the two branches of the fork arrange themselves on corresponding areas () of the anchor that are substantially symmetrical with respect to its center ().
