New description: [Technical field to which the invention pertains] The present invention relates to the main item according to the scope of the patent application. [Prior Art] The quick-acting switch has been known for a period of time; it is used to start a specific motorcycle component. For example, when the press-known motorcycle stand is not in use, the switch is released so that the switch can be in the normally closed state (where the electrical contact is extended and closed, the switch is used on the electrical contact) or normally closed. Operate when disconnected. The construction of the conventional switches is different from each other, and is preferably and advantageously liquid-tight depending on the vehicle, and is waterproof, brake-based, and antifreeze for winter roads into the body. However, j often includes a large number of departments, and therefore assembly is difficult and time consuming, from becoming a high-cost item. Others are used to achieve long life and/or improve liquid tightness;; use high cost materials in their construction, resulting in high manufacturing. The solution is operationally unstable and precise. It cannot be used reliably or simply installed, for example. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION One object of the present invention is to provide a particularly quick-acting switch. A special object of the present invention is to provide a quick-action opening of the above-mentioned

Finally, its έ or size is large, so that [ On the grip. 3 Quick switch for motorcycles, etc., -7- M338171 has a few components, so that the structure is simple and the manufacturing cost is low. Other purposes are to provide a quick-acting switch of the above type which is liquid-tight. It is a further object of the invention to provide a quick-acting switch of the type described above which has a high switching rate, a long life and is reliable in use. These and other objects which are apparent to those skilled in the art can be made in accordance with the switches of the appended claims. [Embodiment] Referring to the drawings, a quick-acting switch includes a switch body 1 having two hollow portions 2 and 3, which are fixed together in a conventional manner (for example, by transmitting an individual coupling member 2A) And 3A quick-acting coupling, by screwing or by gluing, etc.) The first part 2 includes a plurality of movable members, and the like, the fixed contact 5 connected to the second part 3 can be closed; 3 sealed to each other Together, that is, the inside of the portion 2 is not connected to the inside of the portion 3. The switch body 1 is fixed to a suitable holder, such as a motorcycle grip. Specifically, the portion 2 has an inner cavity 10, the inner cavity 1 The two opposite ends 1 1 and 1 2 are open, the end 1 2 is the free end of the switch body 1 , and the end 1 1 is in contact with the upper portion 1 3 of the second portion 3. A hollow cavity 17 The first end 15 of a cylindrical portion 16 can open the open end 12 of the cavity 1 ,, and the portion has a second end 18, and the cavity 17 is open at the second end 18. The other end 19 is closed. The cavity 17 has an inner step portion 20, and the first end 21 of a variable diameter compression spring 22 (continuous action) rests on the inner step portion 2, and the other end 23 On a flat portion 25 of a circular diaphragm 42, the circular diaphragm 42 rests on a flat end portion 43 of the slider 26, which can be in the cavity 1 of the insertion portion 2 The hollow cylindrical member or the cavity 29 of the portion 30 M338171 moves in a portion of the portion 3 of the portion 3. The hollow cylindrical member or portion 3 extends upward from the upper end of the second portion 3 and includes a fixed contact member 5. The piece 26 includes a pin 33 that is self-contained The flat portion 43 is vertically protruded and inserted into one of the forming portions 42A of the circular diaphragm 42 (acting as a sealing member), and therefore, when the switch is at the end 15 of the cylindrical portion 16 from the end of the cavity 1 When a working position emerges, a liquid seal is formed. This liquid seal is always ensured, even when the switch is at the other working position of the end 15 from the end of the cavity 1 (limited or not). This is the reason why the diaphragm 42 abuts against the rounded end of the hollow & hollow cylinder member 30. The slider 26 has three projections 46, 47 and 48 on different sides in its one side 44. And the second protrusions (4 6 and 47), that is, the first and the first and the third element 53 carrying at least one (active) contact 54 (two in the drawing) The two parts 50 and 61 cooperate and the contact piece 5 4 is configured to cooperate with the fixed contact piece 5. The sheet member 5 3 is disposed along the side 44 of the slider 26 and is longitudinally loaded into the switch. The chip element 5 3 acts as a contact element to close the circuit to which the fixed contact 5 is connected, or to disconnect the circuit. The sheet or contact element is elastically deformed by its sheet shape. Specifically, the sheet or contact member 53 includes an element body 55 in which a first hole 52 is formed, and a second hole 56 is formed therein, and the second hole 56 is formed by a transverse portion (cross section element) The longitudinal axis 51 and a third lateral portion 58 of the plurality of movable contacts 54 are formed. An arcuate resilient web 61 (which is more precisely described later) that is movable within the second aperture 56 and has a free end 62 that is inserted into the cavity or recess 63 protrudes from the transverse portion 58, the cavity or recess The groove 63 is provided in the second projection 47 of the slider 26. This insertion groove 63 causes elastic deformation of the belly -9- M338171 plate 6 1 (arched as described above). This elastic deformation allows the sheet member to have a stable shape only at two working positions. The two stabilizing positions of the sheet member may cause the fixed contact member 5 to be closed (the contact member 54 is pressed against the fixed contact member 5) or to be broken (the sheet member is in contact with the slider member 26 in the region 44). Depending on the circuit connected to the fixed contact 5, these positions correspond to different states of use for the user of the switch of the present invention. The contact or sheet member 53 has an arched projection 66 projecting from the second transverse portion 51 and configured to engage with a fixed support wall 67 on the hollow cylindrical member 30 to deform the elastic web 61. As a result, the transitions of such active contacts 54 from their positions of cooperation with the plurality of fixed contacts 5 and their mutually separated positions (or vice versa) are caused. This is achieved by the movement of the third transverse portion 58 of the sheet member 53 relative to the projection 48 which provides only a minimum "protection" for the slider-sheet assembly to prevent it from falling out. It is to be understood that the first cross member 50 of the contact or sheet member 53 cooperates with a recess 70 provided in the upper side 71 of one of the first projections 46 of the slider 26 (Fig. 3). I assume that the snap switch 1 is mounted on the motorcycle grip and cooperates with a clutch lever that is normally positioned on the motorcycle grip so that the vehicle is only activated when the clutch lever is pressed. This rod is used as an external actuator of one of the switches of the present invention. It is also assumed that the switch rest position is "normally closed" (Fig. 2), which provides a vehicle startable state (as is known per se) when the clutch lever is pressed to start the engine. In order to switch from the first working position (in this example, the contact member 5 is closed) to the working position of the brother 2 (the contact member 5 is disconnected), the action of the rod on the end 15 of the portion 16 causes the portion 16 to be in the portion The hole 1 of the inner portion 3 moves against the spring 22 . -10- M338171 The variable diameter spring uses the "two kinds of rigidity", that is, the different rigidity of the two portions 22A and 22B of different diameters. It first resists the movement to ensure the portion 16 (the larger diameter portion 22B) Retracted, and in order to cause the sheet member 53 to be snapped, a standard force is applied to the slider 26 (by the portion 22A having a smaller diameter). Movement of the slider causes the tab or contact member 53 to move and its projection 66 slides over the fixed support wall 67. This action causes the sheet or contact element 53 to bend, and its third transverse portion 58 is withdrawn from the fixed contact 5 and slides toward the slider 26 (Fig. 2). The movement of the sheet member 53 is rapid movement. When the action of the lever is terminated, the spring 22 pushes the portion 16 toward the end portion 12 of the cavity 10, while at the same time, when the thrust on the slider 26 is reduced, the slider 26 is in the member 30 (as a spring contact) Or the sheet member 53 is urged to rise, and the projection 66 of the sheet or contact member 53 is withdrawn from the fixed support wall, but the elasticity of the sheet member 53 causes itself to be deformed again, so that the movable contact member 5 4 faces the fixed contact member 5 (the 2) Move). Obviously, the snap switch can be operated in the opposite manner as the above, i.e., normally closed when stationary, when the portion 16 is moved toward the portion 3 (the circuit can be connected to the fixed contact 5). The operation opposite to the above is achieved by simply rotating the slider 26 about the longitudinal axis W of the switch by 180° and using a sheet member having a plurality of contacts on the opposite side. The switching operation of this configuration (Fig. 4) is clear from the above, and therefore, it will not be further explained. 5 and 6 are diagrams showing variations of the present invention, in which parts of the drawings have been designated by the same reference numerals. This variation is different from the one described with reference to the foregoing drawings in that the cylindrical portion 16 cooperates with a first spring 1 that is inserted into one of the holders 101 of the cup portion 102, the cup portion 1〇2 The M338171 is configured to cooperate with a spring 105 that rests against the diaphragm 42. The cylindrical portion 16 has a pair of lugs 110, and one end 111 of the first spring 100 abuts against the lugs 110. The portion has a second end 1 1 3 opposite the first end 15, and the second end 1 1 3 protrudes from the lug 110 and inserts the spring 100. The second end 115 of the second spring 1〇〇 is inserted into the cup portion 1〇2; the cup portion 102 has a collar 120 against which the first end 121 of the spring 105 rests, the spring 105 The second end 122 rests on the diaphragm 42, which is flat and has an annular projection 42K (except that there is no shaped portion 42A in Figures 1-4). The cup portion 102 has an elongated side window 126 into which the lug 110 of the cylindrical portion 16 is inserted and slidably guided so that the lugs 1 1 0 can be guided , against the action of the spring 100, moves relative to the cup 102. Finally, the slider 26 has no curved end 60 as compared to Figures 1-4. In the variations of Figures 5 and 6, the two springs (100 and 105) have different characteristics and therefore different responses to axial stress (due to the movement of portions 16 and 102). Switching can be adjusted in this way and making its operation more progressive. In particular, the spring 100 has a greater surrenderability than the spring 105. During the switching period, the spring 105 opposes the movement of the portion 102 and the portion 16 to ensure that the portion 102 and the portion 16 return to their resting position (Fig. 6). Upon exceeding a predetermined elastic limit, the spring 105 is compressed to cause movement of the slider 26 and (in the illustrated case) the initiation of electrical contact between the contacts 5 and 54. Therefore, this variation makes the switching of the switches easier to adjust than the embodiment of Figs. 1-4. -12- M338171 The switch of the present invention is simple in construction, sealed, and includes a very small number of components', thus facilitating its assembly and limiting control costs. It is also possible to quickly switch from the closed state of the contact member 5 to the state in which the contact member 5 is disconnected. 'The arc is prevented from occurring between the fixed contact member 5 and the movable contact member 54. Therefore, the life of the switch is longer. The movable contact 54 applied to the sheet member is made of a sintered material to further reduce arcing. The conductance of the fixed contact 5 (and its breaking rate) is advantageously determined by the force of the spring - 22. By appropriately selecting the rigidity of the spring 22 (or its portions 2A, 2B) and the rigidity of the sheet member 53 to achieve proper switching of the switching time control 'and avoiding improper movement of the slider 26 in the portion 2 of the switch 1 . A preferred embodiment of the invention has been described. Other embodiments can be devised from the above description, which are still within the scope of the appended claims.
