Abstract
A switch is disclosed, especially a position switch including a coupling for fixing a drive head to the base of a locking ring. The switch provides a technical solution to allow for a reliable operation of the switch and to simultaneously guide potentially damaging force effects from the drive head via the coupling to the housing of the switch. To this end, in at least one embodiment, first, second and third noses are used, which have an arrangement or shape enabling an essentially non-positive force transmission to be carried out. Furthermore, improved or even optimum handling by the user is ensured, especially for replacement of the drive head.
