DETAILED DESCRIPTION or ILLUSTRATED EMBODIMENT Referring now to the drawings wherein like numerals refer to like and corresponding parts throughout the several views, the control devices disclosed therein to illustrate the invention comprise, a case 20 and a linear slide body 21, FIGS. 1-6, and an annular case 20A and rotary sliding body 21A, FIGS. 7 and 8. The case 20 has opposite end walls 22 and 23, a top wall 24, a bottom wall 25, a front wall 26, and a back wall 27. The walls 22-27 define a hollow interior and house the body 21 therein. The walls 22-27 of the case 20 may be split as desired, wherein selected walls are separately attached to the other walls to provide means to open the case 20.
An arm 30 extends into the back wall 27. A lever 31 is fulcrumed on the arm 30 by a stud 32 and is con-' nected to the arm 30. The lever 31 leads through a slot in the back wall 27 into the interior of the case 20. An inner end of the lever 31 sits in a pocket in the body 21.
By swinging the lever 31, the body 21 is caused to slide against the front wall 26 to locate and hold the body 21 at the linearly adjusted position.
Ports 40, such as 405, 40A, and 40B, are formed in the front wall 26 and shown schematically in FIG. 2, wherein the front wall 26 is removed. Nipples 41 or other connecting means surmount the ports 40 outwardly of the case 20 for connection to tubular lines. Achannel maze 42 of at least two channels is formed on a surface of the body 21. The channel maze surface 42 on the body 21 bears against the front wall 26 and coacts with the ports 40 selectively at various linear positions as desired and integrated in the positioning of the ports 40 and the design of the channel maze surface 42. By swinging the lever 31, the maze surface 42 is moved relative to the ports 40 to change channeling therebetween.
It will be understood that the channel maze surface 42 may be grooved as desired to connect and/or block use ports 40A, B, C, relative to the supply port 408 at the various positions of the body 21 as desired.
FPF supply may be higher or lower than atmospheric pressure and is connected to one or more ports 40 by tubular lines. FPF tubular lines to use are connected also to items which are powered thereby.
An electrical terminal strip 50 on the case wall 24 has three contacts 51, 52, and 53. Terminal strips 54, 55, and 56 on the case top wall 26' have contacts 57, 58, and 59 respectively which, when bridged, complete a circuit to the contacts 51, 52, and 53 respectively. The slide body 21 has a surface equipped with a sliding contact member 61. The contact member 61 bridges the contacts 51, 52, and 53 and the contacts 57, 58, and 59 respectively to make and break circuits. By swinging the lever 31, the contact member 61 is slidably moved relative to the contacts 51-57, 52-58, and 5359 to close circuits therebetween. A modified contact member 61A of FIGS. 5 and 6 operates similarly.
FIGS. 4, 5, and 6 show a different arrangement of the terminal strips 50A, 54A, 55A, and 56A and a different arrangement of the contacts 51A-53A and 57A-59A.
EMF wires are connected to the terminal strips in circuits between supply and use, and connect to items which are powered thereby when the sliding bridge member 61 or 61Ais actuated.
Referring now to FIGS. 7 and 8, the angular movement control device shown therein comprises an annular case 20A and a pivoting body 21A swung by an extension 70 and a handle 71. The body 21A carries the bridge member 61. Contacts 74, 75, and 76 on the terminal strips 84, 85, and 86 and contacts 90 and 90A on the terminal strips 80 and 80A are paired. The contacts are arranged accurately with strips 90 and 90A being two separate EMF circuit supply strips. By moving the body 20A angularly, the bridge member 61 closes the circuits between the contacts selectively at the various angular positions of the bridge member 61. The FPF channel maze member 42A is circular and turns with the body 21A relative to theports 40S and 40A, etc., surmounted by the nipples 41. By swinging the body y r 3,824,356 A 21A angularly, the channels of the maze member 42A are selectively changed relative to the FPF supply and use ports 40S, 40A, etc.
The number of switch arms, contacts, and terminals, the number of ports and channels, and the number of various positions are designed ,and engineered in the device to suit the needs of desired control and/or to provide a device with a large plurality of EMF and FPF actuation positions so that less than all control positions may be selectively used. While the movement of the body 21, 21A has been shown and described as lever actuated, the body 21, 21A and case 20, 20A relative movement may be actuated by cams, cables, etc.
In an exemplary installation of the control device of the invention in a vehicle heating, ventillating, and/or air conditioning system, the FPF circuits are connected to the pressure powered servo-mechanisms, and/or motors and the EMF circuits are connected to the electrically powered servo-mechanisms and/or motors. In the control of the system, the FPF and EMF powered elements are coordinated by operating sequences-and non-operating sequences. The inter-action of the ports and channel maze surface 42, 42A is coordinated with the inter-action of the contacts and the bridge member 61 to control, selectively and'in combination,
