My Vinvention relates to electric-:switches of. the enciosedersafety type in which theswitching mechanism ris mounted kin za box and provided with an -Vactuating memberoutside yof the box.
iThe main obj ect is vto provide a simple and compactfand'yetfecientswitch of the llow :price field.
Withth-at linmin'd,v I have provided la box with alhin'ged cover in-which1is mountedaninsulating basewhich carries thecircuit .terminaisthe protective-devices,vthe'switchfcontacts and the contact making and breakingrotor. 'Thefouter end oi' the actuating member carried bythe insulating`base`projects through the :cover 'and is provided 'with means for sealing -the joint between the cover andthe actuatorand for llocking the switch.

Fig. 14 is a plan VView showing a modification of theswitch base and parts vfor cartridge type fuse protection.
The box body I5 may be of any suitable vform and provided with a cover I5 which is preferably hinged at l1.
Theswitching mechanism mounted Within the box is all carried by .an insulating base I8 which is adapted `to be secured-tothe bottom of the box many-suitable manner as for instance by .a Screw (not shown) through the passage |9 in the base.
A switch rotor28 :has `auhub 29 .and `is rotatably mounted lin-.thelovver .endfof atubular or hollow post 30. This rotor .carries tyvo contact buttons 3|, 3|. Each buttonisdropped into a hole 32 in the rocker .and preventedirom Yfalling out hyengagement of adjacent pants. .The rocker is kalso provided with :two shallow recesses E33, j33. The underside of the base is provided with an arcuate track `34 `for guiding one of the `contact buttons. This `track is provided Vwidthtransverse grooves so vas vto vinterr u p t'the *surface of the track .and avoid the possibility ofmetal Yparticles v,forming a ,conductoralongthe'track. The .free .end of each of the spring armcontacts2z2 is provided with a boss 36 lin.f1lignmen t 4with the `adjacent .contact stud 21. The rotorfisprovided vitfithan .inclined cam surface 3l' -at each end which extends yloertween the frecess ,33 .and the adjacent Contact button 3|. Each .cam. surface terminates in ran abrupt shoulder 38 adjacent thezcontact button so that as Vthe rotor is -turnedbetween the jbase and the 1305565.36, .36 of the contact arms the contact arms will 'be placed under tension and .then snapped onto the .Contact .buttons thus .irwlieating clearly to the operator that the circuit has been closed. In breaking the circuit, the bosses 36, 36 drop into the recesses 33 and thus indicate that the switch has been turned to the fully oi position.
The rotor is preferably provided with flanges 39, 39 which are interposed between the contacts and the operating shaft. The rotation of the rotor is limited by the opposite sides of an abutment 40. (Fig. 10.)
The switch 'is actuated by a shaft 4l which is preferably formed from a single stamping of sheet metal and has a handle 42. This shaft has a bearing washer 43 mounted on the upper end of the post 36 and the shaft has a limited longitudinal movement through the washer. The lower end of the shaft passes through a slot 44 in the rotor and is upset or spread at 45 to hold the parts together, A washer t5 is preferably provided to form a seat for the end of the shaft. The upper end of the shaft is provided with a washer il which has a boss which ts within an opening d8 in the cover. The washer is secured to the shaft and handle member by the lugs 49 which are integral with the upper end of the shaft. A spring G mounted on the shaft 4l is interposed between the lugs 4Q and the washer i3 so as to exert a tens-ion on the shaft and thus draw the rotor and its hub upward in the bottom of the post 3i! when the box cover is open and also when the switch unit is removed from the box. The shaft has a shoulder 5l which coacts with the washer 43 to limit the downward movement of the shaft.
To provide a convenient means for locking the switch either in the on or off position, I have provided a lug 52 which may be integral with the cover and projects upwardly therefrom at the periphery of the opening 38. A latch 53 is pivoted at 54 to the handle member 42. This pivot is eccentric to the axis of the shaft so that the latch may be thrown into the full line position of Fig. 5 to limit the rotation of the handle and shaft or thrown into the dotted line position which prevents the latch from engaging the stop lug 52. The shaft handle may be provided with an opening55 to accommodatev a 4pad lock' or other form of locking device (not shown).
The switch may be provided with a neutral terminal 56 and also provided with an insulating back plate 5l if desired.
The form of construction shown in Fig. 14 is designed to accommodate cartridge type fuses instead of the fuse plugs previously mentioned. For this purpose, fuse clips 6) and 6! are provided in place of the screw-threaded sockets previously mentioned. Otherwise the mechanism and operation is essentially the same as 'that previously described.
The construction thus shown and described provides a contact switch in which cable or wire connections may be made without interference with the switchy operating mechanism. It leaves a clear wall space for cable entrance holes or knockouts in all four side walls of the box.
' The spring construction on the handle shaft eliminates any loose feeling of the parts although they are slidably connected. vThe spring also pushes the flange on the handle washer 4l into a snug seal with the inside of the cover when the'cover is closed. This prevents any accidental ash or lire through the handle hole in the cover should there be an explosion within the box.
The sliding connection of the handle'shait base and having also allows for manufacturing variations in the dimensions of the -box and the switch mechanism. rihe movable contacts oat or slide in the rotor and the handle shaft oats or slides in the rotor so that if the handle is depressed during cover closing or by accident, strain upon the resilient contacts will yb'e'.minmizedQ-andconnection of thecircuit through the switch will notbe interrupted.
Although I have shown the invention as applied to a 2- pole switch, it should be understood that various features are applicable to 3-pole and 4-pole switches.
