Abstract

967,204. Switches held set and freed mechanically; retractive switches. TELEMECANIQUE ELECTRIQUE. Jan. 26, 1962 [Jan. 30, 1961], No. 3108/62. Heading H2B. A switch comprises a lever 8, mounted by a swivel joint 13, 14 and arranged to move from a central off position to any one of four micro-switch 20 operating positions. The four positions are defined by four perpendicular cam tracks 5 engaging a ball 6 carried by a tube 7 sliding on the lever 8 against spring loading 9. The cam tracks 5 are formed in independent, changeable .sectors 1 each mounted by a lug 3 engaging an aperture 4 in a cup member 2. The cup 2 also holds in place four actuating springs 22 which transmit movements of a bush 11 on the tube 7 to switch buttons 21 with some lost motion. The switch buttons may be arranged for displacement parallel to the direction of cam tracks 5 in which case only a single switch is operated in each position of the lever 8. Alternatively the sectors 1 may be displaced through 45 degrees (holes 4 being provided at 45 degree intervals) so that two adjacent switches are operated together. In the embodiment of Fig. 1, the lever 8 returns to the central position when released. In a modification using the sector shown in Fig. 4, the lever will remain set. One or more positions of the lever may be blocked off using the sector of Fig. 5. In another modification the cam tracks allow the lever to move between positions without returning to the central position.
