Abstract

793,564. Thermal switches. SIGNALSTAT CORPORATION. Aug. 19, 1955 [April 8, 1955], No. 23945/55. Class 38 (5). A snap-acting electric switch incorporates a resilient vane 10 described in Specification 761,713, [Group XXXII], and comprises an improvement on the switch disclosed in copending Specification 762,046, the improvement being constituted in that the moving contact 60 of the pair of auxiliary contacts 55, 60 controlling the pilot lamp PL is carried on a conductive spring arm 65 secured to the heat expansible ribbon 30 near the centre point thereof, such that when the contol switch 45 is closed and the ribbon 30 begins to heat up the contacts 55, 60 make before the contacts 25, 35 open and, due to the residual heat in the ribbon 30, stay made as long as the switch 45 is closed, the pilot lamp supply being controlled through the contacts 25, 35. The signal lamps SL-1, SL-2 and the pilot lamp PL flash together in synchronism.
