Abstract
An actuation device of an electric switching device includes a body onto which is mounted a rotary control handle and a device for locking the rotation of the control handle making it possible to lock the control handle when the latter is in the 'Off' position. The locking device includes a locking member that can move in translation along a main axis, a sliding element mounted on the control handle, that can move in translation along the main axis, and that defines an opening that can receive one or more padlocks in a locked position. The locking device also includes an operating mechanism interacting, on the one hand, with a locking member and, on the other hand, with the sliding element to convert the translation movement of one in a predetermined direction into a translation movement of the other in an opposite direction.
