Abstract

1,104,218. Press-button retractive switches. SQUARE D CO. 27 April, 1966 [5 May, 1965], No. 18422/66. Heading H1N. An electric switch comprising a hollow body 11a, Figs. 4, 5, of insulating material containing a rectilinearly moving contact carrier 23 with a push-button extension 24, is fastened to a support by bolts 36, 40 in shouldered bosses 34, 38a, one boss 34 being on an outer wall 11b of the body and extending between the terminals 20c. The switch bodies may be arranged in complementary pairs and have recesses 39 at one edge for complementary engagement with the bosses 38a. The movable bridging contact 22 is mounted between a pair of convex backing pieces 45, 48b, Fig. 16, yieldingly held by a spring 49 to limit the loading and permit self-alignment. Rotational movement of the contact 22 on the carrier 23 is prevented by the engagement of a central slot 47 of the contact over a shaped lug 46 on carrier 23. The pairs of switch bodies may be mounted end-to-end for operation by a single push-button having a plate engageable with both projecting buttons 24 of the first switch pair assembly. The attachment screws may be elongated or may have hollow threaded heads for engagement end-to-end. The switches may alternatively be operated in multiple by a rotary selector having a cam or by a selector push-button.
