Abstract: A snap action slide switch is provided having a contactor assembly engaging a common contact and selectively engaging one of a plurality of discrete contacts. A slider extends outwardly through a slot in a housing containing the contacts and has legs extending over the ends of a spring seated in the contactor assembly thereby biasing the contactor assembly to move with the slider. Projections on the contactor assembly engage notches on the housing to position the contactor assembly in engagement with a selected discrete contact and the common contact and to restrain the contactor assembly from movement with the slider. Movement of the slider relative to the contactor assembly compresses the spring and moves a cam depending from the slider into engagement with a cam surface on the contactor assembly. Relative movement between the cam and cam surface produces pivoting of the contactor assembly and removal of the projections from the notches permitting the force of the compressed spring to snap the contactor assembly into engagement with another of the discrete contacts.

Abstract translation: 提供了一种快动式滑动开关，其具有接合器组件，该接触器组件接合公共触点并选择性地接合多个离散触点中的一个。 滑块通过包含接触件的壳体中的狭槽向外延伸，并且具有在位于接触器组件中的弹簧的端部上延伸的腿部，从而偏置接触器组件以与滑块一起移动。 接触器组件上的突起在壳体上接合凹口以将接触器组件定位成与选定的分立触点和公共触点接合，并且限制接触器组件与滑块的移动。 滑块相对于接触器组件的移动压缩弹簧并使从滑动件垂直移动的凸轮与接触器组件上的凸轮表面接合。 凸轮和凸轮表面之间的相对运动产生接触器组件的枢转并且从凹口移除突起，允许压缩弹簧的力将接触器组件卡扣成与另一离散触头接合。

Abstract: A variable resistance slide control employing a rectilinear slide carrying a contactor wipably engaging a resistance element and a conductive element supported in a housing. A pair of spaced guide means on the slider supported by resilient dielectric guide-supporting means in side members of the housing permits uniform operation of the slider. The guide-supporting means provided in the side members are of the same width throughout the entire length of the housing. The side members are integral with and hingeably secured to the bottom member. In one embodiment tolerance compensators are provided on resilient guide means of the slider for substantially eliminating pitch and yaw of the slider during movement. An operating member secured to the slider extends outwardly through a slot provided in the housing.
