1. A capacitive touch switch, comprising:
- a touch panel having a top side and an underside;
a circuit board disposed at a spacing distance below said underside of said touch panel;
a flexible and three-dimensionally deformable circuit carrier configured for adaptation to a freely shaped surface of said underside of said touch panel; and
a capacitive sensor element disposed on said circuit carrier and at said underside of said touch panel and in electrically conductive contact with said circuit board.

Abstract
A capacitive touch switch has a touch panel with a top side and an underside. A circuit board is arranged at a spacing under the underside of the touch panel. A capacitive sensor element which is arranged at the underside of the touch panel and which is in electrically conductive contact with the circuit board is disposed or formed on a circuit carrier that is flexible and three-dimensionally deformable for adaptation to the freely shaped underside of the touch panel.
