Abstract

1412808 Push button switch SIEMENS AG 1 Aug 1973 [29 Aug 1972 24 Aug 1972] 36583/73 Heading H1N In a push-button switch the key shaft 2 Fig. 1 has wedge-shaped surfaces 4, 5 whereby on initial movement of the shaft 2, surface 4 moves the movable spring contact 6 away from the fixed contact 7 against the force of the contact spring 6 and subsequent movement releases the contact spring to move towards the fixed contact while exerting a force on the actuation surface 5. The contact spring may be U-shaped wire 6, Fig. 2, fixed at its ends and engageable with a sloping surface 8 on the fixed contact 7 to reduce the contact bounce. An electromagnetically operated latch 11 is mounted below the shaft 2 and prevents movement of the shaft 2 when the electromagnet 14 is energized as by a prior operation of another push-button on the same keyboard.
