Definitions

  • the present invention refers to an electromagnetically driven selector, especially for telephone plants, by means of which an arbitrary contact set among a number of sets lying beside each other can be operated.
  • the invention is chiefly characterized in that there is for each contact set a guide which, in active position at make and break of the selector magnet, actuates the pertaining contact set by means of a lifting member, and causes a displacement of the following guide from normal position to active position.
  • Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of the selector.
  • Figs. 2 and 3 illustrate a front view and a side view of the selector, and
  • Fig. 4 shows an enlarged detail of the contact actuating device in the selector.
  • a relay bridge I, Fig. 1 there is an electromagnetic relay 2, the armature 3 of which supports a bar 4, provided with holes 5.
  • Two studs 6 and I, provided with lips or teeth, are fastened on said bridge, on which a number of guides 8, 9 are also arranged.
  • the number of guides as well as the number of said teeth and holes in the bar corresponds to the number of selector positions or contact sets.
  • the bar II is provided in a usual way with recesses for contact springs l3, Fig. 3. Said contact springs are omitted in Fig. 1. On a bar lifting, the contacts in the corresponding contact spring set are actuated.
  • the guides are made with a certain pro-tension, which causes them to rest against their support with a pressure, which is directed downwards and to the right, Fig. 1.
  • the stud 1, Figs. 1 and 3 is shaped with inclined planes. At their initial position the guides pass through the holes in the armature bar and come out below the pertaining inclined plane in the stud 1. When a guide is lifted up to its active position, it glides upwards along the underside of inclined plane. When it has reached the upper end of the plane, it snaps its point onto the upper side of the plane. If the guide is thereafter moved downwards, it will glide along the upper side of the plane and then back to its initial position.
  • Each lifting spring I0 is shaped with a tongue is lying below the nearest guide, and the object of which is, on movement upwards of the lifting spring, to lift the following guide from its initial position to a position on a tooth on the bar 6.
  • a lifting spring, which is being moved upwards, thus causes the follow- 2 ing lifting spring to be actuated the next time, a step by step actuation of the contact sets lying in a row thus being obtained.
  • one of the guides is always lifted from its in tial position 25, Fig. 4, and lies in said position I! on a tooth on the stud 6. It presses with a certain pressure on the lower part of the right sidewall in the hole 5 of the armature bar.
  • the armature bar On the armature thereafter being moved to break position, the armature bar will move downwards and so will the hole 5, in the upper part of which the right sidewall is offset to the right.
  • the guide will glide from position I! to position l8 after the hole 5 moves a certain distance downwards.
  • the guide now reaches an active position.
  • An electric selector for telephone plants comprising a plurality of adjacent contact sets successively actuated, a relay-magnet-common to the several sets, a guide for each contact se't movable from an initial position to'an active position, a lifting member for the contacts in each set arranged to be moved, on make and break-i0 means for guiding the guide back to the initial position after the appertaining contact setlhas' been actuated.
