Abstract

442,448. Switches held set and freed mechanically. WHYTE, S., Rostherne, Upper Bridge Road, Redhill, Surrey, BROWN, W. J., Danesmoor, Harefield Road, Uxbridge, Middlesex, and HALLAWELL, A. M., Little Gables, Wallington, Surrey. Aug. 7, 1934, No. 22904. [Class 38 (v)] A light current electric switch comprises a contact spring 1 fixed at 3 to an insulating support 2 and held in a slightly strained position by a stop 5. A second contact spring 7 is mounted on the support 2 at a substantial angle to the spring 1 and carries a contact point 10 adapted for engagement with a flat contact 6 on the spring 1. An operating cam 11 of form shown is rotatable on a spindle 15. Initial rotation of the cam causes the contact point 10 to engage the left-hand side of contact 6 and further movement of the cam causes the contact point 10 to slide to the right until the nose 17 of the cam has passed the dead-centre position. The contact point 10 then moves back a short way to the final contacting position in which the flat side 16 of the cam rests on the blade 7. In this way a clean contact surface is preserved. Specification 417,437 is referred to.
