ツチ３が開閉される。[Background Art] Conventionally, there are typical repeatable time switches shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. That is, the dial body 1 rotates at a constant speed at a constant cycle, and a plurality of setters 2 attached to the outer periphery of the dial body 1 actuate a switch 3 to turn on/off electrical equipment at a predetermined time. This has a configuration in which a setter 2 is inserted and fixed into a plurality of setter holes 4 arranged in a row on the peripheral edge of a dial body 1, and the end of the setter 2 switches a switch 3. For example, the setter hole 4 is
They are set at 15 minute intervals. The switch 3 is opened and closed each time each setter 2 operates the switch lever 3a with which it engages.
この従来装置では、設定子２はダイヤル本体１

チ本体５に不使用設定子２の収納部を設ける必要
があつた。 In this conventional device, the setting element 2 is the dial body 1.
It is prepared separately from the switch 3, and the setter 2 is inserted into the setter hole 4 corresponding to the time when the switch 3 needs to be changed.
The setter 2 had to be inserted and fixed, and the setter 2 had to be removed from the setter hole 4, which did not require switching. As a result, changing the mounting position of the setting element 2 in response to a change in the switch switching time is relatively complicated and easy to make mistakes, and the setting element 2 that is not in use is easily lost. Furthermore, it was necessary to provide a housing section for the unused setter 2 in the time switch main body 5.

品自体が小さく、かつ数量が多いため（15分間隔
では１台当り96個）、部品の管理が大変である。 Furthermore, in conventional devices, there are those that use a single-shaped setter for both on-off operations, and those that use a setter that has a dedicated shape for on-off operations. In the former case, there is a disadvantage that it is difficult to distinguish between on and off operations at each time when switching a complex program, and in the latter case, the structure is complex and it is not easy to replace the program. It was hot. Furthermore, since the parts themselves are small and in large quantity (96 pieces per machine at 15 minute intervals), managing the parts is difficult.
これに対して、支軸に設定子のＣ字形部を嵌合

かつ不使用設定子の保管等の問題がない。 On the other hand, there were time switches in which the C-shaped part of the setter was fitted onto the support shaft, and a click part was formed between the support shaft and the C-shaped part (for example, in JP-A-54
−22586). This item is easy to operate the setter,
Moreover, there is no problem such as storage of unused setters.
しかし、設定子によつて作動されるスイツチレ

た。 However, when the switch lever operated by the setter engages in the rotating direction of the setter, there is a risk that the setter will rotate in a direction away from the switch lever, making it impossible for the switch lever to operate reliably.

分を黒色とした場合、赤色に着色されている。Embodiment An embodiment of this invention is shown in FIGS. 3 to 6. This dial mechanism consists of a dial body 6 and a plurality of (for example, 96) setting elements 7, a switch lever that is kicked by the setting elements 7, and a micro switch (both not shown) that is driven by this switch lever. Configure a time switch. The dial main body 6 is a disc-shaped member made of hard synthetic resin or metal, and is rotated at a constant cycle by a clock mechanism. A plurality of setter holes 8 extending in the radial direction through the front and back surfaces of the dial body 6 are arranged in an annular manner around the outer circumference, and within each setter hole 8 is a horizontal support shaft 9 perpendicular to the radial direction. are integrated. Further, a U-shaped elastic protrusion 10 is integrally formed in each setter hole 8 from the inside in the radial direction. The outer periphery of the upper surface of the dial body 6 has a colored section 1 for on/off indication that is different in color from other parts.
1. The colored portion 11 is formed by two-color molding or hot stamping, and is colored red when other portions are black, for example.

もよい。 The setter 7 is fitted into the setter hole 8 of the dial body 6 and has a bearing portion 7d that is rotatably supported by a support shaft 9. The setter 7 includes a switch engaging pawl 7a that protrudes and retracts from the back surface of the dial body 6 as it rotates, and a click protrusion 1 at the tip of an elastic protrusion 10.
It has a protrusion engaging claw 7b that engages with the stopper engaging portion 7c. The stopper engaging portion 7c is connected to the support shaft 9.
It engages with a stopper 12 protruding from the lower surface of the holder. The setting element 7 is the setting element hole 8 of the dial body 6.
Although it is molded in a state where it is incorporated into the setter hole 8, it may be molded separately and later incorporated into the setter hole 8.

ツチレバー上をそのまま通過する。Operation FIG. 4 shows the on state, and FIG. 5 shows the off state. In the ON state, the switch engaging claw 7a of the setting element 7 is at an angle such that the switch engaging claw 7a protrudes perpendicularly to the back side of the dial body 6. Therefore, as the dial main body 6 rotates, the switch engaging claw 7a of the setting element 7 engages the switch. Rotate the lever to turn on the switch. In the OFF state, the switch engaging claw 7a of the setting element 7 is recessed into the setting element hole 8, and therefore passes directly over the switch lever.

れる。そのため、オンオフが明確に表示される。 In this way, the switch can be turned on and off by simply turning the setter 7 in a seesaw style while it is inserted into the setter hole 8. Unlike conventional settings where the setter is attached and removed, the setting element 7 is stored in the storage section. Since there is no need to provide a device, the device can be made smaller and more compact, and the setting operation is very simple. Furthermore, problems such as loss of the setter 7 and incorrect installation are eliminated. Since the setter 7 is rotated in a seesaw manner, it can be operated more smoothly than, for example, when it is slid back and forth in a straight line. Furthermore, when changing between the on state and the off state, the protrusion engaging pawl 7b of the setter 7 rides over the click protrusion 10a of the elastic protrusion 10, producing a click feeling and a click sound.
Therefore, the on/off setting of the setter 7 can be confirmed intuitively, and the reliability of the operation of the setter 7 is improved.
The click feeling and sound can be changed by changing the spring pressure of the elastic protrusion 10. In addition, when the setter 7 is in the ON state, the stopper engaging portion 7c is held by the elastic projection 10 in a state pressed against the stopper 12 of the shaft portion 9, so that the switch lever is not engaged with the switch engaging claw 7a. It will not rotate when pushed or rotated accidentally. Third
In the figure, 7 1 indicates the setter in the on state, and 7 2
indicates the setter in the OFF state, and in the OFF state, the colored portion 11 of the dial body 6 is hidden by the setter 7. Therefore, on/off status is clearly displayed.

る。 Figures 6A and 6B show the manufacturing process. First, the dial body 6 is molded using the lower mold 14 and the upper mold 15 (FIG. 6A). 16 is a gate. next,
The setter 7 is molded into the setter hole 8 of the dial body 6 using another lower mold 17, an upper mold 18, and the dial body 6. 19 is a gate.
このように、ダイヤル本体６内に組込んだ状態

業が不要で製造能率が良く、また設定子７の精度
向上および材料損失の低減が可能である。 In this way, since the dial body 6 is molded in a state where it is incorporated, there is no need to assemble a large number of setting elements 7, which improves manufacturing efficiency, and it is possible to improve the accuracy of the setting elements 7 and reduce material loss. .
