Abstract

L'invention concerne un bouton-poussoir qui possède un panneau à pousser vers le bas, un substrat sur lequel est monté un commutateur et qui est positionné dans la direction d'appui vers le bas du panneau, et un bras positionné entre le substrat et le panneau. Le bras a une forme en porte-à-faux, avec une extrémité libre et une extrémité fixe. Une position sur le bras plus proche de son extrémité libre que de son extrémité fixe fait face au commutateur, une section en saillie étant formée dessus. Le bras est également poussé vers le bas par l'opération d'appui vers le bas du panneau. Le bras, lorsqu'il est poussé vers le bas, amène la section en saillie à appliquer une pression sur le commutateur. La section du panneau plus proche de l'extrémité libre que de l'extrémité fixe est poussée vers le bas à un plus grand degré que la section plus proche de l'extrémité fixe que de l'extrémité libre.
