Abstract

779,424. Retractive snap action switches. MAXSON CORPORATION, W. L. Aug. 2, 1955 [Jan. 21, 1955], No. 22184/55. Class 38(5) In a snap-action switch wherein depression of a spring blade 51 past a dead-centre position, e.g. by means of a lever 71 and plunger 65, causes contacts on the free end of the blade to snap across out of engagement with a contact terminal 34 and into engagement with a contact terminal 38, the blade itself being fixed at its left hand end to a contact terminal 42, the members are all accommodated as shown in grooves or recesses formed in the two halves of a casing and retained there by fixing the two halves together by means of a ribbed pin 12. The blade 51 has a tongue 57 cut out in its centre and the tongue bears against a hollow 48 and tends to hold the blade in its upper or lower position according to whether the blade lies above or below the hollow 48.
