Abstract

1371571 Rocker switches CHERRY ELECTRICAL PRODUCTS CORP 23 May 1972 24066/72 Heading H1N A retractive switch is operable beyond the contact change position to provide a wiping action Figs. 2, 3, 4 show the sequence of actuation, the actuator cam 34 first pivoting the contact carrier 24 (Fig. 10) about a fulcrum 23 formed on the central contact 22<SP>1</SP> and subsequently engaging the tab 29 of the carrier 24 so as to cause transverse displacement of the contact carrier portion 30 with respect to the fulcrum 23. The fulcrum apex 23 and the inverted V 30 have preferably included angles of 90 degrees and 125 degrees respectively. A spring 40 biases the actuator to a neutral position (Fig. 2) by abutting the central portion 36 on the actuator. Movement of the actuator in the reverse direction operates a similar arrangement oppositely arranged in the other half of the switch housing 11. The actuator is mounted in the housing by a pivot pin 14 engaging the sidewalls one of which 15 is shown in Fig. 2.
