Safety switch arrangement
A safety switch arrangement with a safety switch and an actuator associated with it. Moreover, a locking unit is provided for, by means of which the actuator is locked in a latched position. The safety switch has an auxiliary unlocking unit that has a mechanically actuatable actuating element. An actuation of the actuating element is implemented only with a transmission element as a positioning movement for the locking unit.
1. A safety switch arrangement ( 1 ) with a safety switch ( 2 ) and an actuator ( 3 ) associated with said safety switch arrangement, wherein the actuator is locked in a latched position by a locking unit, characterized in that the safety switch ( 2 ) has an auxiliary unlocking unit ( 14 ) that has a mechanically actuatable actuating element ( 15 ), wherein an actuation of the actuating element ( 15 ) is implemented only with a transmission element ( 16 ) as a positioning movement for the locking unit, and wherein a segment of the transmission element ( 16 ) forms a film hinge ( 19 ) that can be wound up or wound out on a shaft of the actuating element ( 15 ).
2. The safety switch arrangement ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , characterized in that the locking unit is constructed to hold a blocking element ( 9 ) in a latched position, whereby the actuator ( 3 ) is locked in the latched position by means of the blocking element ( 9 ) held in the latched position.
3. The safety switch arrangement ( 1 ) according to claim 2 , characterized in that the locking unit forms an electrically operating unit.
4. The safety switch arrangement ( 1 ) according to claim 2 , characterized in that the locking unit is a component of the safety switch ( 2 ).
5. The safety switch arrangement ( 1 ) according to claim 2 , characterized in that the position of the actuating element ( 15 ) is decoupled from the position of the blocking element ( 9 ) by the transmission element ( 16 ).
6. The safety switch arrangement ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , characterized in that the transmission element ( 16 ) is a plastic injection molded part.
7. The safety switch arrangement ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , characterized in that a segment of the transmission element ( 16 ) forms a push rod ( 18 ).
8. The safety switch arrangement ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , characterized in that an end face of the shaft lies freely at the safety switch ( 2 ) and has an interface to insert a tool by means of which the shaft is rotatable about its longitudinal axis.
9. The safety switch arrangement ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , characterized in that by winding up or winding out the film hinge ( 19 ) on the shaft, a linear motion of a push rod ( 18 ) is generated, which is transmitted to the locking unit.
10. The safety switch arrangement ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , characterized in that a segment of the transmission element ( 16 ) is a spring element ( 20 ).
11. The safety switch arrangement ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , characterized in that a segment of the transmission element ( 16 ) is a latching element.
12. The safety switch arrangement ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , characterized in that the latched position of the actuator ( 3 ) is monitored by recording signals from a transponder in the actuator ( 3 ) into a reader unit of the safety switch ( 2 ).
