Abstract

1480262 Switch contacts AMP Inc 17 Oct 1974 [5 Nov 1973] 44997/74 Heading H1N [Also in Division H2] An electric switch assembly comprises a plurality of parallel spring blade contacts 12, Fig. 1, mounted in slots 16a-16g in a base 11 and having integral tangs 29, Fig. 4, with slots 37 arranged to intersect and penetrate the insulation on connecting wires 40 inserted through apertures in the base 11. The contacts are bifurcated to provide for a central actuator (13) Fig. 9 (not shown) with ribs (41) engaging the limbs in the region of the contact embossments 31. Ribs 35 and a tongue 34 provide for a force fit in the slots and further tongues 32 engage the surface of the base 11 to locate the blades in position.
