  • Yet another object of the present invention is the provision of a new and improved automatic recycling device including means tor varying the total time of the u cycle of operation.
  • FIG. 1 is a top plan view of the recycling switch of this invention
  • FIG. Vla is a fragmentary plan view of the switch of FIG. l showing the normally closed contacts in their open position;
  • FIG. 2 is a section taken along line 2-2 of PIG. 1;
  • FIG. 3 is a fragmentary section taken along line 3 3 of FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 4 is a diagrammatic view of the recycling switch and circuit of this invention.
  • the switch of this invention includes a generally rectangular at base 10 made of suitable dielectric material.
  • Base 10 supports ⁇ a pin 12 .at right angles thereto, which pin pivotally mounts a generally U-shaped bracket 14.
  • a bimetallic strip 16 is 3,342,963 Patented Sept. 19, 1967 ICC secured intermediate the ends thereof to the bight portion of bracket14 by suitable means, such as a small rivet.
  • bimetallic strips used for switching are composed of two strips secured together in coextensive contact, which strips have different coefficients Vof expansion. Accordingly, when such a strip is heated it tends to warp or assume arcuate form due to the fact that one strip has a greater coefficient or expansion than the other.
  • bimetallic strip 16 upon being heated, warps or Iforms arcuate form so that the ends thereof move downwardly and inwardly as viewed in FIG. 1.
  • a suitable heater winding 18 is wound around strip 16 along the length thereof.
  • One end of winding 18 is connected to a lug bracket 19 formed of conductive material, which bracket is ⁇ secured to base 10.
  • the other end of winding -18 is secured to bimetal strip 16.
  • this end -of the heater winding is secured in an aperture in the bimetallic strip, which aperture mounts a contact Ztl.
  • a lug 22 is secured to base 10. This lug, which is of conductive material, mounts a contact 24. Contact 24 is adapted to be engaged by contact 20 upon heating of the bimetal strip as will be explained hereinbelow.
  • Strip 29, which is of conductive material, is suitably secured to base 10.
  • a -bi-stable or over-center member 30 Ialternately releasably holds contacts 26, 28 closed and opened as will be explained below.
  • This member is of -U-shaped configuration and has one end 30a thereof received within a cut-out portion or notch of yan ear 32.
  • This ear has an integral base 33 which is suitably secured to base 10 ⁇ of the switch.
  • the other end 30b of bi-stablemember 30 is pivotally engaged with the adjacent end of the bimetal strip. ln the embodiment of the invention illustrated, this end of the bimetal strip is shaped to form a point 16a (FIG. 2), which point is received within an aperture (not shown) in end 30b of member 30.
  • vBi-stable member 30 which is formed of suitable spring material, tends, in its position illustrated in FIG. 1, to open up or expand thereby to hold contacts 26, 28 together.
  • strip 16 when strip 16 is heated it acts to snap contacts 26, 28 open against the relatively weak closing force of member 30 until the latter strikes an upstanding stop 34 integral with base l33 (FIG. la).
  • member 30 When member 30 is in its FIG. 1a position, it acts to hold contacts 2,6, 28 separated in such a manner that contacts 26, 28 are permitted to close upon cooling of strip 16.
  • a spring strip 35 (FIGS. 1 and 3) has one end thereof secured between base 10 and lug strip 29. This spring strip is stepped upwardly as at 35a (FIG. 1,) and extends in parallel spaced relation with base 10.
  • a contact 36 is mounted to the underside of spring strip 35. When the spring strip 35 is depressed, contact 36 engages a contact 38 which is mounted on a strip 39. Strip 39 is suitably secured to base 10. Both spring strips 35 and 39 are made of suitable conductive material.
  • Bracket plate 40 is secured to base plate 10 at a right angle with the latter. Bracket plate 40 mounts suitable hub means 41 which journal a shaft 42. A cam member 44 is secured to shaft 42 for rotation with the latter.
  • cam member 44 has an axially extending recess 45 in the outer surface thereof.
  • recess 45 receives the up-turned end 35b of spring strip 35 thereby allowing the latter to assume a position wherein contacts 36 and 38 are separated.
  • cam member 44 is rotated E in a counterclockwise direction as indiacted in FIG. 3, the arcuate outer surface of cam member 44 engages end 35b of the spring strip and depresses the latter (to its broken line position shown in FIG. 3) for bringing about engagement of contacts 36 and 38.
  • cam member 44 is provided with a helical surface 47.
  • Bimetallic strip 16 has a right angle end portion 16a which engages helical surface 47 f the cam member.
  • Bimetallic strip 16 when not being heated, tends to assume a rectilinear configurations and thereby urges end 16a into engagement with helical surface 47. It should be apparent that rotation of cam member 44 in a clockwise direction causes contact 20 to move away from contacts 24 and that rotation of cam member 44 in a counterclockwise direction moves contact 20 toward contact 24. It will be understood that cam mem ber 44, more particularly helical surface 47 thereof, serves, among other things, as a means for setting or adjusting the spacing between contacts 20 and 24.
  • Cam member 44 includes an integral, arcuate flange portion 48, the ends of which flange portion are adapted to engage a protrusion 40a formed in plate 40. This protrusion acts as a stop to limit rotation of cam member 44.
  • t and 51 represent low voltage lines, 28 volts for example, used in a slide projector circuit.
  • This voltage is mentioned for purposes of illustration only and not for limiting the invention in any way as it will be appreciated that a switch constructed in accordance with the present invention can be operated by current having voltage other than the voltage mentioned.
  • a line 52 has one end thereof connected to line 50 at a junction 53; the other end of line 52 is connected to lug 19 of the switch.
  • a line 54 has one end thereof connected to line 51 at a junction 55; the other end of line 54 is connected with a junction 56.
  • a line 57 connects junction 56 with lug 39 of the switch.
  • a line 58 has one end thereof connected with a junction 59 and the other end thereof connected with a junction 60.
  • a line 61 connects junction 60 with lug 22 of the switch.
  • 62 represents an induction type electric motor.
  • This motor may be the driven motor of a slide changer forming a part of a slide projector.
  • Mechanically connected to 62 is an arm 64, which arm is rotatable about a pivot 65.
  • motor 62 drives arm 64 for rotation (in a clockwise direction as viewed in FIG. 4) about pivot 65.
  • Arm 64 may form part of the drive mechanism for the slide carrier.
  • spring arm 66 supports a contact 67.
  • a line 68 connects contact 67 with junction S6.
  • a stationary contact 69 is mounted adjacent contact 67 and a line 70 connects contact 69 with the junction 59.
  • Arm 64 When arm 64 is rotated and clears spring 66, the latter acts to close contacts 67 and 69. Arm 64 and spring 66 may be contructed as shown in the application of Karl F. Kurz, Ser. No. 188,107, led Apr. 17, 1962, now United States Patent 3,183,774.
  • bi-stable member 30 acts, in the position thereof illustrated in FIG. l, to prevent premature separation of contacts 26 and 28 which are in series circuit relation with heater winding 18. Premature separation of contacts 26, 28 would of course open the heater winding circuit before the strip could be heated for bringing contacts 20, 24 into engagement.
  • a circuit for motor 62 is closed. This circuit is as follows: lines 51, 54, 57, lug strip 39, contacts 38 and 36, strips 35, 29, contacts 28 and 26, bimetallic strip 16, contacts 20 and 24, lug bracket 22, line 61, motor 62, line 50.
  • arm 64 is connected with motor 62 for being driven by the latter. After motor 62 has been energized as just described, arm 64 is rotated in a clockwise direction as indicated in FIG. 4. As soon as the free end of arm 64 clears spring 66, the latter snaps contacts 67 and 69 into engagement with each other thereby to complete a circuit for motor 62 independently of the switch.
  • This circuit for motor 62 is as follows: lines 51, 54, 68, contacts 67, 69, lines 7G, 58, motor 62, and line 50.
  • arm 64 again returns to the position illustrated in FIG. 4 thereby opening contacts 67 and 69 for de-energizing motor 62 (contacts 20 and 24 opened before the motor cycle was completed but after contacts 67 and 69 closed).
  • the cycle of operation of the switch can be varied by changing the maximum spacing between contacts 20 and 24.
  • This spacing is controlled or changed by rotating cam member 44 as explained above.
  • shaft 42 which rotates with the cam member, is associated with suitable indicia means (not shown) so that shaft 42 can be rotated to various angular positions corresponding to designated periods of time, which periods of time represent the duration of the cycle of operation of the switch.
  • strip 16 is completely independent of the total cycle time as controlled by cam 44.
  • contacts 26, 28 always separate at the same length of time after contacts 20 and 24 engage each other.
  • strip 16 is constructed so that it has a spring value.
  • bi-stable member 30 is so termed because it is stable in two positions, viz. the position illustrated in FIG. l and the position illustrated in FIG. 1w. Actually, the member 30 acts as an overcenter member for alternately releasably holding contacts 26, 28 closed and opened.
