Abstract:
1. Safety position switch comprising, in a casing: a push rod which responds to movement of an actuator connected to a device to be made safe, in such a way as to become displaced along a main axis in order to assume a rest position and a working position, an electrical device switchable according to the position of the push rod, by means of a lockable transmission mechanism actuated by the push rod, a device ( characterized in that: the transmission mechanism comprises a pivoting lever capable of assuming a locked position and an unlocked position, the pivoting lever has a force applied to the lever from the push rod such that a movement of translation of the push rod generates a rotation of the lever, the pivoting lever is provided with a jamming element that is applicable, in the locked position of the lever and transversely with respect to the main axis, against the locking head.
