Abstract
957,254. Press button retractive switches. G. R. McKNICHT. Sept. 7,1962 [Sept. 7,1961], No. 34375/62. Heading H2B. A switch assembly comprises a hollow pellucid push button 76, switch actuator buttons 44, 46 extending from casings holding switch units 36, 38, a lamp holder unit 54 and biasing means 48 for returning the actuator mechanisms to their unoperated position. When the push button 76 is depressed, the base portion 78 contacts the actuator buttons 44,46 which actuate the switch housed in casing portions 50a, 50b, 52a and 52b. The lamp holder unit 54 comprises a socket 56 which isaccommodated in the bore 84 of the push button, and a pair of flat terminal strips 58, 60 held apart by insulating sheets 66, 68 mounted between the switch units 36, 38 so that the lamp holder remains stationary when the push button is depressed. The switch units 36, 38, lamp holder unit 54 and base 78 of the push button are held in a U-shaped bracket 12 which may be mounted on an apertured work panel 13 by means of lock-nuts. An alternative form of bracket 12<SP>1</SP> has tabs 102, 104 for mounting on the underside of a panel, Fig. 9 (not shown).
