Abstract

1,215,932. Rotary switches. PLESSEY CO. Ltd. 13 March, 1968 [15 March, 1967], No. 12054/67. Heading H1N. The rotor spindle 1 is rotatably coupled to the output 17 of a spring-ball type index mechanism 16 through flats (18, Fig. 2), and a shaft 19 connected to the input of the index mechanism is rigidly connected to a knob 20 through a screw 21. Spindle 1 is axially clamped through a plug 25, and after removal of this plug 25, a tool inserted in a hole 28 in the spindle facilitates withdrawal of the spindle 1 through the knob 20 from mechanism 16 and from the rotor assembly 3, 4, 5 and double sided printed contact stators 7, 8, in order that the stators, 7, 8 can be replaced. The stators slideably fit in grooves in the switch casing. The insulating rotor supports 5 are locked together by studs and holes (11, 12, Fig. 2). In an alternative arrangement (Fig. 3), the switch spindle (30) is coupled to the actuating mechanism through an Oldham coupling (31). An actuating spindle (36) may be coupled to the input of the index mechanism (32) while the output is connected to the Oldham coupling, or the spindle (36) may be secured to the Oldham coupling and actuate the index mechanism through co-operating flats. The rotor spindle (30) and switch members can be disconnected from the parts 31, 32 and 36 by displacing the switch assembly in a direction perpendicular to the rotor spindle, this being facilitated by co-operating surfaces 37, 38. The rotor spindle (30) can thereafter be axially withdrawn from the switch members.
