Abstract

1,055,626. Retractive switches. VAPOR CORPORATION. Dec. 12, 1963, No. 49093/63. Heading H2B. Movement of a handle 16 in any lateral direction relative to support members 18, 18a, operates switches 12 via elements 88 projecting through openings 48 in the supports and rockable in sockets 44 in the supports towards which they are spring biased, the switches being operated by partly pivotal, partly lateral movement, Fig. 3, or by purely lateral movement (Fig. 6, not shown) of handle 16. Each switch 12 is retractive and has a movable contact ring 42 on a spring 36 engageable with a fixed contact ring 32. Alternatively, the elements 88 operate contact springs 106, 108 (Figs. 8, 9, not shown). A deformable sealing ring 62, 70 is connected between each end of the handle and the support members 18a, 18.
