Abstract

975,732. Retractive switches. CHERRY ELECTRICAL PRODUCTS CORPORATION. Nov. 22, 1961 [Oct. 20, 1961], No. 41724/61. Heading H2B. In a snap-action switch comprising a body 10 and cover 11, mating to provide a cavity 12 containing a tension spring 43 and snap-acting switch blade 36, the snap-acting mechanism being actuated by a button part 48 depressible to move spring 43 over-centre, one end 46 of the coil spring 43 is hooked over a supporting pin 47 extending transversely between the body 10 and cover 11, and the cover 11 has a lateral extension 54 and spaced losses 55 for closing a compartment 50 around the hooked end 46 and maintaining spring 43 in a predetermined longitudinal plane with respect to the movable switch blade 36. Aligned ridges and recesses on cover 11 and body 10 engage one another to securely retain the switch parts therein.
