Abstract

1,249,522. Snap-action switches. LEGRAND S.A. 17 April, 1969 [30 May, 1968], No. 19674/69. Heading H1N. Hand pressure on a flexible operating plate 3 or 31 causes a rockable arm f, fa, or #<SP>1</SP>, f<SP>1</SP>a, to pivot between two stable positions and actuate the contacts B, C, or B<SP>1</SP>, C<SP>1</SP>, of an "on"-"off" or changeover switch via one of the elongated blades 8, 8a, or 8<SP>1</SP>, 8<SP>1</SP>a, movable with the arm. Successive hand pressures cause snap-actuation between two positions. The rockable arm f, fa, is a conductive movable contact-carrying arm actuated via the flexible blades 8, 8a, engageable alternately on bearing-surfaces 9, 9a, formed on a part 11 fixed to the centre of plate 3, the arm being urged into each stable position by an omega spring 7. The rockable arm #<SP>1</SP>, f<SP>1</SP>a, has integral blades 8<SP>1</SP>, 8<SP>1</SP>a, and is of plastics material, and is fast with a shaft 18 which carries a rockable arm 19 with an elbow 20, Fig. 13 (not shown), to which is attached a tension spring 25 urging a pivoted movable contact-carrying plate 22 between its two stable positions via a central tongue 23 of the plate.
