Abstract

727,487.. Press-button retractive switches. DOWTY EQUIPMENT, Ltd. May 14, 1953 [May 15, 1952], No. 12338/52. Class 38 (5). The two-part switch body 10, 11 carries four terminal posts 27 .. 30 each carrying concentric conducting and insulating rings 36, 35 which are spaced axially along the posts. A plunger 16 urged upwards by a spring 24 loosely carries bridging contacts 38, 39 which slide along the rings 36, 35 on axial movement of the plunger, thereby bridging pairs of the posts. The contacts 38, 39 are pressed inwards against the posts by blade springs 41 acting either through balls 40 or directly on extensions of the contacts. The plunger is located in its axial positions by spring pressed balls 47 which engage recesses 44, 45 in a sleeve 43 surrounding fixing bolts 12. The body is sealed by a gasket 14 between the parts 10, 11, by a washer 26 around the plunger, and by a moulding 49.
