Abstract
The present disclosure provides a device for selecting a desired switch position out of a plurality of switch positions, and a switch position depends on a position of at least one locking bolt relative to a snap-in cam, with a support member for a control element. The support member is arranged below a user interface and rotatable around a shaft relative to the locking bolt. The snap-in cam is designed in the support member, and a Maltese cross transmission structure is formed in the support member. A drive device is in engagement with the Maltese cross transmission structure so as to rotate the support member with the snap-in cam around the shaft relative to the locking bolt depending on the desired switch position.
