Definitions

  • Figs. 1a and lb show a contact device, in which the lifting bar actuates the contact springs directly, on one hand in un-actuated and on the other in actuated position.
  • Fig. 3 shows a modification of the invention, the selecting bar thereby giving the lifting bar an initiating movement by a direct touch.
  • 1 is a supporting sheet to which a spring set 5 together with other spring sets comprised in the same vertical row, but not shown on the drawing, are fixed.
  • contact springs 51-50 and a lifting bar 6 of insulating material with a spring 7 fixed to the lifting bar belong to each spring set 5.
  • a selecting bar 4 which is mounted at the upper and lower ends of the supporting sheet in bearing devices which are not shown on the figures.
  • the spring 7 is rigidly squeezed on the lifting bar 6 and is turnably mounted in a hole 41 in the selecting bar 4. Between the selecting bar and the lifting bar the spring 7 forms an elastic lever.
  • the lifting bar 6 is suspended on the upper contact spring 51 and is provided with holes 62-60 for the other contact springs.
  • Figs. 2a and 2b the contact springs 51-5'2 press upwards and are kept against the lower part of the holes in the block 2 by means of an additional spring 9 and an additional lifting bar 8 of insulating material.
  • the movable lifting bar 6 with the elastic lever '7 is suspended on the spring 9 and is used for lifting the spring 9. In rest position the lifting bar 6 is pressed against the support 11 by means of the spring 7.
  • the selecting bar 4 is pulled downwards, the lifting bar 5 is swung round its suspension point, and its lower part is pushed against the support 31 on the opergting bar 3, if said operating bar is in rest position, or against the edge 32, if the operating bar is actuated.
  • Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 show how said support may be replaced by a support 42 which is fixed to the selecting bar 4. This causes that, when the selecting bar is pulled downwards, the support 42 will cooperate with the spring 7 and initiate the oscillatory movement of the lifting bar 6. Owing to this the lifting bar is prevented from being wedged between the contact springs, or from not starting to move because of the friction against the supporting sheet 1.
  • the operating bar 3 has another embodiment and the block 2 as well as the spring set 5 has been arranged for 12 contact springs.
  • a contact device characterized by a support being attached to the movable selecting bar, against which support the lifting bar is pressed by said elastic lever, when the selecting bar and the lifting bar are in rest position, and which support co-operates with the elastic lever, when the selecting bar is actuated, in order to swing the lifting bar in the plane of the contact springs.
