Abstract

A switch (S) is accommodated in a housing (18a) on one hinge leaf member (2) and is operated on relative angular movement of the hinge leaf members (2, 3) about the hinge pin (4) by operating means comprising a plunger (23) cooperating with the periphery of the hinge pin (4) and acting at its other end on a spring loaded rocker lever (20) which in turn acts on the micro switch (S). In use the hinge pin (4) is fast with the hinge member (3) and the periphery of the hinge pin (4) has a recess (27). In a typical mode of use the plunger (23) enters the recess (27) in the operative condition of the switch and door closed position. Immediately the door is opened the plunger (23) rides out of the recess (27) to effect operation of the switch to the inoperative safety condition. For setting purposes and other modes of use the hinge pin (4) is angular adjustable in the hinge member (3) and locked in the required position by the screw (8) and pin (9)
