Abstract

The invention relates to a device for locking the end positions of movable switch parts and, in particular, the movable point (1) of a frog, in which two relatively axially displaceable parts are capable of being displaced into a position coupled with each other in a positive manner in at least one direction of movement, wherein the relatively displaceable parts are comprised of a tube (5) and a rod (6) guided within the tube (5) and are at least partially arranged in a stationary outer tube (4), whereby locking members (8) cooperate with the relatively axially displaceable parts (5, 6) as well as the outer tube (4) and are capable of being displaced in the radial direction into a locking position in a recess or inner annular groove (15, 16) of the outer tube (4). Said device is designed such that the outer tube (4) is comprised of two tube parts (17, 18) capable of being axially displaced within each other, and that each tube part carries at least one recess or inner annular groove (15, 16).
