Definitions
- the invention relates to a switching arrangement which may be used for compact program control devices. P articularly, the invention relates to a contact making and breaking device, its mounting, configuration and actuation by means of a rotating cam.
- the purpose of the invention is to provide a low-p riced contact member which is easily adjustable while offering best contact qualities, requiring little space and being easily assembled and disassembled.
- the primary object of the present invention is to eliminate these disadvantages by developing :a contact part which by means of a moving cam assures reliable contact making and breaking and permits easy, interchangeable assembly whereby a plurality or" contact making and breaking, i.e., switching devices may be assembled with only narrow spaces between neighboring switches.
- the object of the present invention is attained by providing for the following arrangement: There is first a flat contact member, made of a stamped sheet metal piece.
- This contact member comprises first of all a meandered portion having regular serpentines and defining two perpendicularly extending paths of resilient reaction which are in the plane of extension or symmetry of the contact member.
- a nose Extending from this flat contact part is a nose having a surface for engagement with a cam. This surface faces substantially the same direction in which the contact element is moving either for contact making or breaking.
- a stationary contact is mounted for corresponding cooperation with the contact element of the flat contact part.
- the other end of the meandered portion terminates in a likewise flat part with which the contact member is mounted and position arrested so as to define a one arm lever.
- the latter flat part is provided for making suitable per'rnanent electrical connections and, therefore, will be called connecting part.
- a rotatable cam positioned so as to engage the said surface for moving the one arm lever-contact member for contact making and breaking.
- the cam itself when operating upon the contact member, i.e., the said surface thereof, moves perpendicular to the direction of contact making and breaking, which is a direction coinciding with one of the paths of resilient reaction. This latter movement of the cam imparts upon the contact member a movement causing the two contacts to slide over each other thus providing for a self-cleansing eifect.
- the distance between the engagement surface for the operating cam and the meandered portion may vary. T is means that the engagement surface may be placed as well close to the contact itself or remote therefrom. Also, the shape of the engagement surfiace may vary. It may be straight or round.
- the contact member For an easy assembly or else disasse'rnbly it is recommended to place the contact member as an uprightly stand- 3,189,719 Patented June 15, 1965 ing element in-between two insulating members, such as plates, which are kept apart by spacers for a sufficient distance.
- the insulating members have openings, stops and projections which permit inserting of the contact member as well as its arresting by resilient action.
- the proposed arrangement ofi'ers the advantage of using the electrical connecting part of the contact member for resiliently engaging and retaining it in an insulating mem ber.
- There one utilizes the resiliency offered by the meandered portion when the contact member is inserted against the resistance offered by the resilient serpentines in a direction occurring during the moment of contact making.
- the insulating member or plate or plates may serve as support for a printed circuit, within which the contact member carries out switching ope-rations.
- the assembly In order to secure a durable positioning of the contact member even if subjected to severe shocks, it is quite sufficient for the assembly to merely have projections and cooperating stops on either one or both of the supporting plates for arresting the resiliently reacting contact member part by means of corresponding stops and projections.
- the individual serpentines of the meandered portions need not to be coplanar, but may alter by similar angles of succeeding curves.
- the plane of symmetry still is defined by two perpendicular paths of resilient reaction. This feature provides for a softer resilient reaction and greater security against tilting.
- the meandered portion can also be subdivided in two portions extending at right angle to each other.
- the degree of resilient action within one or the other plane can be preselected which is important for the pressure of contact making.

- FIG. 12 illustrates the double contact used in the arrangement shown in FIG. -11.
- FIG. 1 illustrates a prior art, cam operated switchingdevice.
- a cam disk 1 operates by means of a nose 2, a nose 3 being an element of a contact making arm 4.
- a contact 5 on arm 4 cooperates with an oppositely positioned contact 6.
- the connector 7 is jointly connected at 8 with the contact making part 4.
- a spring 9 renders an elastic action to the contact making arm 4.
- the connector 7 as well as the contact making piece 4 are parts practically without any special resilient qualities, as compared with spring 9.
- FIG. 3 A first switching device according to the invention is illustrated in FIG. 3.
- the contact member 19 includes first a flat connecting part 13 and a flat contact part 14. Both parts are integrally interconnected by means of a hat regularly meandered part 15.
- the contact part 14 carries a contact element cooperating for contact making and breaking with stationary contact 6.
- a connector socket 20 or the like is connected to connecting part 13 for making permanent electrical connection during operation.
- Contact part 14 has a downwardly protruding, rounded nose 3.
- a cam disk 1 is provided for rotation in the direction of arrow 16, and has a cam 2 capable of engaging the downwardly extending surface of nose 3 perraining to contact member 10.
- fiat meandered part 15 offers resilient resistance when contact 5 is lifted in the direction of arrow 19 as stated. Upon disengagement of nose 3 from cam 2, the contact 5 is returned by resilient reaction downwardly (lower arrow 19).
- FIG. 2 illustrates schematically and in top view how many of the contact members such as 10 can be assembled for contact making and breaking by means of a cam disk 11, having a number of cam tracks operating upon the respective noses 3 of the several contact members 10.
- a cam disk 11 having a number of cam tracks operating upon the respective noses 3 of the several contact members 10.
- the flat, uprightly standing members 1% can be arranged so as to require only narrow spaceinbetween juxtaposed members.
- the distance between adjacent contact members has to be much larger than is the distance 12 when contact member 10 such as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4- are used.
- FIG. 4 a second embodiment of the invention is shown and it may be noted that similar numbers are used for parts having similar functions as compared with FIG. 3.
- the connecting part 13 has a plug type connection 20 and a fastening vane 21, the latter being optional.
- the contact part 14 has two oppositely extending guide tongues 22, 23.
- FIGS. 5 and 6 it may be said, that also similar numbers refere to parts of similar functions.
- the specific resilient action of the contact member shown in 1 this embodiment occurs in a plane perpendicular to the plane of extension of fiat member it). Such a construction is advisable when several contact members are being placed one upon each other and not one next to each other as is shown in FIG. 2. It is apparent, that the self-cleansing efi'ect here is again due to stretching and recoiling of meandered portion 15'.
- FIGS. 7 and 8 illustrate top and side elevation of a contact member whereby in addition to a first meandered part 15 there is provided a second meandered portion section 29 contiguous with the first but at a right angle thereto.
- PEG. 9 depicts diagrammatically the possibility of offset-ting alternatively individual serpentines 3d, 31, 32 of one contact member. There the plane of resilient reaction can tilt by a width 33 as is shown in FIG. 9, which in turn is an assurance against tilting wheneverthe contact part is being bent in the direction, of the arrow 34.
- FIGS. 10 and 11 illustrate a contact member of the invention and its positioning in a housing.
- FIG. 10 there is illustrated a contact member positioned in between two insulating members 35 and 36.
- Members 35 and 36 are spaced apart by removable ribs or spacers, only schematically indicated.
- insulating members 35, 3 correspond to plate surfaces 24, 25 of PEG. 4.
- the meandered part 15 of the contact member extends vertically and so does the connecting part 13 having a connection lug or vane 21.
- a stop 37a is provided in the lower one, 36, of the two insulating members and projects into an opening in member 35. Stop 37a of insulating member engages a conforming projection 33a of lug 21.
- Insulating member 35 has an opening 39 and there is a stop 3715 at that opening against which is resting a portion 38b of connecting part 13.
- the arresting position of the contact member in FIG. 10 is attained as follows: first the upper insulating member 35 is removed, and then the Contact member is introduced, in the direction of the arrow d1. Thereafter the insulating member 35 is placed back into the illustrated position whereby the contact member will be secured in its arrested position for the following reasons:
- the meandered pontion 15 first provides for suificient resilient reaction in direction of the arrow 42 whereby the projection 38a will be pressed against the projecting stop 37a of insulating member 36 while contact 5 on contact part 14 engages stationary contact 6 thus keeping the contact member in its arrested posit-ion. Furthermore, the meandered portion 15 resiliently reacts in the direction of arnow 4-3, so that the connecting part 13 is retained by projecting pieces 44. The resilient action of the nose 3 by virtue of meandered portion 15 is not impaired thereby, since the meandered ponti'on constitutes such a relatively long lever arm so that a smooth but still snapping operation of the nose 3 occurs whenever it is urged down after having been lifted during passage of nose 2 when cam disk 1 rotates in the direction of the arrow 16.
- Nose 3 projects through plate 36 and in a second aperture 27 thereof, penmi-tting actuating engagement with cam 2 as stated.
- Arrows 17 and 18 again denote the motion of Contact part 14 for cleansing of contacts 5 and 6.
- the position of the contact member when cam 2 does not engage nose 3 is defined by resilient action of meandered point-ion 15, particularly urging nose 3 downward.
- nose 3 engagm cam 2 and the latter urges the former upwardly, there is a corresponding friction, carrying nose 3 in direction of arrow 17.
- nose 3 and part 14 snap back in direction of arrows 18 and 19 (down).
- FIG. 11 the serpentines of meandered portion 15 are differently located as compared with FIG. 10 and a resilient reaction in another direction may be obtained thereby.
- Arrow 45 denotes the direction of placing the contact member in-lbetween members 35 and 36 during assembling.
- An opening 40 shown in FIG. 11 serves for inserting the entire contact member between members 35 and 36.
- the bottom insulating member 3'6 has no opening for any electrical connector and the flat nose 3 is extending through the single aperture 27 thereof and is projecting therethrough so as to serve as a contact finger engaging cam 2.
- a design of this kind is of advantage in case no components conducting electric current are permitted to project through the bottom of insulating member 36.
- the top insulating member 35 has two stop shoulders 37c and d.
- the contact member is further position arrested by a connecting vane 21 extending upwardly from part 13 and resting against a stop 37d defined by a connector piece 48 on plate 35.
- the resiliency active in the direction of arrow 46 which has to be overcome while inserting the contact member in direction of arrow 45 causes a pressure in the direction of the arrow 47 urging the contact member into arrested position.
- FIG. 11 there is one torque moment acting where the meandered part 15 again joins the contacting part 13 and the other moment occurs at the top insulating member by arresting on the conductive piece 48 which is interposed in-bet-ween portion 21 and plate 35'.
- connecting part 13 has a solder connection 49 and there are terminal lugs 50, 51 which may be adjusted for soldering or screwing, or a plug connection.
- the contacts themselves as they are on the respective contact part 14 may have manifold construction.
- the two contacts 5 and 6 are placed within the plane of extension of the fiat contact member and, therefore, the two contact pieces are rather narrow.
- the contact may, for example, be riveted or welded onto contact member 10, and in FIG. 11 there is shown a piece of sheet metal 52 on which are mounted two individual contacts 5 constituting a double contact and being riveted thereto (FIGURE 12).
- the con necting part 13 it is important to make the con necting part 13 as sturdy as possible so that its position is tightly and positively arrested within the supports by virtue of resilient action of the meandered part 15. Projections and stops ought to be placed in such a manner so that the contact member is retained during the upward motion as well as during the downward motion for respectively contact breaking and making.
- the cross-section and length of the stamped, meandered portion section ought to be chosen so that a relatively small pressure exerted by the cam upon the operating surface of nose 3 yields a sufficient amount of contact pressure as well as a snappy contact action.
- a cam operated switching device comprising: a stationary contact; a contact member having a first flat portion arrested in a stationary support, having a second flat portion carrying a contact cooperating for contact making and breaking with said stationary contact in first and second directions being oppositely orientated to each other, said contact member further having a resilient meandered portion integral with and interconnecting said first and second portion, said meandered portion having fiat serpentine-portions; means on said contact member defining an actuating surface facing a direction coinciding with said first direction; and a cam bodily movable in the second direction adjacent said contact member engaging said surface and urging it into said second direction, said cam moving said actuating surface in a direction substantially perpendicular to said first and second directions when said cam actuates said contact .on said contact member by engaging said actuating surface.
