Contact switching arrangement
First Claim
1. A contact switching arrangement with a flat, electrically non-conducting cover (10) which forms a switching area (14a, 14b) on a top (12) facing an user and has an underside (16) facing away from the user, at which at least one electrode (18a, 18b, 20a, 20b) is arranged and is connected with a switching arrangement (22) for triggering a contact signal when a finger of the user or a conducting body approaches, the contact switching arrangement comprising:
- a light-reflecting, electrically non-conducting film (24) over at least a portion of the cover, acting as a non-conductor.

Abstract
A contact switching arrangement with a flat electrically non-conducting cover which forms a switching area on a top facing the user, and has an underside facing away from the user, at which at least one electrode is arranged and is connected with a switching arrangement for triggering a contact signal when a finger of the user or a similar conducting body approaches. The cover has a light-reflecting, electrically non-conducting film, at least over portions, which acts as a non-conductor. The contact switching arrangement is for use in connection with control panels of electronic devices, for example.
