Patent ID: 7019241

Claim:
An energy-autonomous electromechanical wireless switch or radio pushbutton comprising: at least one rocker switch, at least one transducer element ( 1 ) for converting mechanical energy to electrical energy, at least one dead-center mechanism ( 6 ), at least one electronic system ( 7 ), which is electrically connected to the transducer element ( 1 ), for generating and emitting a wireless signal, at least one actuating panel ( 2 ), having at least one sensor ( 3 ) per actuating panel ( 2 ), and at least one mechanism ( 4 ) for deflecting the force introduced by the rocker switch onto the dead-center mechanism, wherein the rocker switch ( 2 ) is mechanically coupled to the transducer element ( 1 ) by the dead-center mechanism ( 6 ), and wherein mechanical energy introduced by the rocker switch ( 2 ) is stored in the dead-center mechanism ( 6 ) until a tipping point is reached, and, once the tipping point has been exceeded, the stored mechanical energy is transmitted to the transducer element ( 1 ), wherein the force and the speed of the excitation of the transducer element ( 1 ) which is thus achieved is determined by the dead-center mechanism ( 6 ), and wherein the dead-center mechanism ( 6 ) has an upper dead center and a lower dead center, with each of said dead centers forming a movement end point of a directed movement of the dead-center mechanism ( 6 ), and the tipping point being arranged between said dead centers, and wherein the dead-center mechanism ( 6 ) excites the transducer element ( 1 ) in the movement direction of the energy store.
