Abstract

1361541 Cam-operated switches TEKTRONIX Inc 5 Jan 1972 [4 Feb 1971] 480/72 Heading H1N A switch comprises a support plate 22 of insulating material carrying fixed contacts 34, 36, movable contact means 10 attached by resilient metal mounting means 18, and movably mounted actuator means 38, there being insulation means 14 connected between the movable contact and its resilient mounting means which also acts as actuator-engaging means. As shown the plate 22 comprises a printed-circuit board and the actuator is a rotary cam member having a knob 46 and cam lobes 42, there being further fixed contacts on the reverse side of the board 22 (Fig. 2, not shown) with a co-operating movable contact 12 carried on another blade 20 by means of insulation 16 which has an integral post 26 passing through an aperture 28 in the board 22 to be conjointly actuated with member 14. A sliding cam may replace the rotary cams but this is not described in detail.
