    Abstract: The problem addressed by the invention is that of providing a microswitch that allows the setting of the microswitch to be detected. This problem is solved in that a microswitch is provided which comprises a conducting element that can be moved along a surface. At least one, preferably at least two, conducting tracks are integrated in the surface in such a way that the conducting tracks can be contacted by the movable conducting element. By means of the actuation of the microswitch, the movable conducting element is moved at least in some regions. During the movement, the movable conducting element lies on the surface along which the movable conducting element is moved. By means of the movement, two electrical conducting tracks are electrically connected to each other or an electrical connection between two conducting tracks is disconnected. Thus, the movement causes electrical switching. One or more contact surfaces, which are electrically connected to each other by means of the movement, have differently electrically conductive regions in such a way that electrical resistances of electrically connected surfaces change by means of the movement. A plurality of different switch settings can then be determined by means of resistance measurements. Thus, if such a microswitch is used for position detection, more than two different positions can be detected.

    Abstract translation: 本发明解决的问题在于提供允许检测微动开关的设置的微动开关。 这个问题的解决之处在于提供了一种微型开关,其包括可沿着表面移动的导电元件。 至少一个,优选至少两个导电轨道以这样一种方式集成在表面中,使得导电轨道可以被可移动导电元件接触。 通过微动开关的致动,可移动导电元件至少在一些区域中移动。 在移动期间,可移动导电元件位于可移动导电元件沿其移动的表面上。 通过移动,两个导电轨道彼此电连接,或者两个导电轨道之间的电连接断开。 因此,运动引起电气切换。 通过移动而彼此电连接的一个或多个接触表面具有不同的导电区域,使得电连接表面的电阻通过移动而改变。 然后可以通过电阻测量来确定多个不同的开关设置。 因此,如果这样的微型开关用于位置检测,则可以检测多于两个不同的位置。

    Abstract: The invention relates to a motor vehicle door lock which is equipped with a locking mechanism (1, 2) that consists essentially of a rotary latch (1) and a pawl (2). Furthermore, an electrical drive (3, 4) for the locking mechanism (1, 2) is provided. Moreover, an actuating lever chain (5, 6, 7) is implemented between the electrical drive (3, 4) and the locking mechanism (1, 2), wherein a coupling element (7) of the actuating lever chain (5, 6, 7) can at least be decoupled with the aid of an emergency actuating element (9, 10) that can be acted on manually. According to the invention, the emergency actuating element (9, 10) acts on the coupling element (7) predominantly in a linear manner in relation to a link (8).
