Chain 14 is connected to the dog 13 by forcing the ball at one of its ends down into the sleeve and into vthe circular' o eninfrs.
The contact arm 21 is provided with a downward projection 30 which is adapted to drop into a corresponding hollow in the U-shaped spring members 20 asthcse members are respectively engaged with said contact arm 21.
A spring 3l upon spindle 18 is held in position by the cover member 2 and keeps the crucii'orin contact member- 19 pressed downwardly against the plate 17.
A spring 33 surrounds chain 14 and -is interposed between dog 13 and a ange 31 at the end of slide way 12; this spring tends to keep dog 13 at the end of slide way 12 opposite the chain.
An insulating sleeve 35 and outer metal shell 36 of usual type inclosc the socket when assembled.
An incandescent lamp being in position, the operation of my invention is as follows:
vThe part-s being as shown in' the igures'the circuit is closed and the `lamp lighted. The
circuitis through conductor to angled piece 5 and Contact l; thence through the amp to4 socketl shell 8,. through bolt 9 to platel' and spindle 18 and to switch member 19. The circuit `then passes through one of the spring members 20 to and through Contact arm 21'and thence to conductor 23. ,'To break the circuit the chain 14 is pulled thus drawing the dog 13 along the slide Way .12 and bringingY the edge 2S of slip member V 25 against the edge of that arm of contact member 19 which` at the moment,
lies across the-slide way 12.y This will cause the 'switch member 19..to be rotated through 90O and bring one :ofthe tiatarms of. the
switch under but out of contact with the.
lt will be noted'that the socket of m invention is very simple and'little liab e to get. out of order. It should also be noted that the pull and movement of the chain 4and switch dog is straight across the center ofthe socket so that the chain is not liable to bend or kink. It should be noted, further, that each point of the circuit is separated by substantial amounts of insulationV from all other parts of the circuit which differ substantially from it in E. M. F.
lVhile I have described my invention in one of its possible embodiments it is obvious that other forms of the invention may easily be designed by those skilled in the art within the spirit of the following claim In a pull socket, an insulating body having a chamber and a transverse slidewayv opening from the bottom of said chamber, an insulating cover for said chamber, a spindie set in the bottom of said'chamberto one side of the slideway, al cruciform switch 'in said chamber loosely A mounted upon said spindle and adapted to have one arm cross the opening'of said slideway, a spring upon said spindle above the switch and havinfg its 'upper end against the lower surface o the cover, a switch dog slidable in the slideway and provided with a chain,v a depressible' pawl upon the top of saidswitch dogv anda circuit terminal adapted to -make contact with alternate switch arms,the switch being connected with the other circuit terminal.
In testimony whereof have hereuntoset m hand. y SAMUEL STRAUS.
