Abstract:
1. An ignition switch assembly connectable to a rotary shaft of a gas tap of a cooking device comprising: a coupling element connectable to the rotary shaft, the ignition switch assembly having a fixed contact, a mobile contact, and a cam coupled to the coupling element which is configured to move the mobile contact relative to the fixed contact, the cam having a guide moveable within a groove of the switch assembly that controls lateral displacement of the cam in relation to the coupling element, lateral displacement of the cam controlled such that when the coupling element is rotated in a first direction from a first initial position, the mobile contact is moveable to electrical contact with the fixed contact, whereas when the coupling element is rotated in a second direction opposite the first direction the lateral displacement of the cam is controlled to prevent electrical contact between the mobile and fixed contacts.
