My improved switch isfcompleted by a fuse" blade A bridging the contact members 14 and having its, end portions detachably engaged in the formations 15 i as will 'be apparent. In detail the fuse blade A comprises an elongated insulating body portion 16, which, for the sake of cheapness {and durability it when subjected to rough usage,

tending longitudinallythrough the portion each end 'through one side of said portion 16 as at -18. Secured against the sideof the 'portion16, through which. the passage- 17 opens laterally are metallic contact plates nates atits lower end in a hook-shape forma- '10 16 is apassage- 17 which-opens"laterallyat 19 whi'ch arew disposed just above respective lateral openings 18 and project respectively beyond the ends of the portionx16 for direct detachable engagement in the hook-shaped formations 15; The plates 19 are electrically connected by a fusewire 20, which extends through the ings 18.
To provide for passage 17 and lateral open the easy and safe removal and to the hook formations 15,1 secure and replacement of the fuse blade. A from y centrally of the body portion 16 a depending insulator A pin-21 having the usual threads 22. When it is desired to remove the fuse blade A the operator employs aremoval and replacement stick indicated generally in Figing the handle23 in the proper direction can screw theinsulato-r 25 on the pin and thus secure the stick to the fuse blade. When the; stick is thus secured to theffuse easily and with perfectsafety effect detach ment of the fuse blade from the formations l5andthen-lower said blade for the purposes desired. 1 The manner of replacingthe blade through themedium o-f the stick B will be obvious, it being noted in this con- 'nection that the hook-shaped formations 15 render the pro-per replacement of the blade exceedingly lsimple and certain in that it ure 2 at B. Thisstick embodies a suitable effect its detachment from either formation is only necessary for the operator to position the contactplate 1'9 '3' ust above the mouths of respective formations and then pull downwardly 0n the stick B. v In this operation the application of excessive downward pull on the stick'c'a'n in no way result in a faulty assembly between the blade and tions 15 that when the fuse b-lade A is applied to the switch allv possibility of .the same becoming accidentally detached. from the switch is eliminated owing to the fact that only upward movement of the blade can 15. a i I {claims-U v 7 Y 1.
