A switch operation indicator is disclosed which comprises a frame fitted with a push-type switch having a drive member which is locked into a pressed-in position by a first pressing action and unlocked to return to an original position by the next pressing action; a push button fitted in the panel of the frame so that the button can be pressed in; a coupling bar which couples the button and the drive member to each other and has an operating notched portion; an indication opening provided in the panel adjacently to the button and an indication member attached to the frame so as to be swung, along with the movement of the bar, to be engaged with or disengaged from the notched portion and is provided with an indicating portion which alternatively faces or does not face the opening as the indication member is swung back and forth by the repeated pressing actions. Alternatives include an optical guiding version and a vibration-clamping version.

An electrical switching arrangement for use in a motor vehicle and the like includes a support frame, a control lever rotatably provided on the support frame for pivotal movement about a first support axis, and about a second support axis directed in a direction different from that of the first support axis together with a first actuating member, and also for rotation about its own axis together with a second actuating member. A switch unit is detachably mounted on the support frame and has a switch base in which a plurality of switch elements associated with the first and second actuating members are provided so as to be selectively opened and closed through the first and second actuating members upon rotation of the control lever about the second axis and about its own axis.

In a column mounted switching device mounted on a steering column of a vehicle, a revolution member is supported on a base plate rotatably about a first revolution axis in a first direction, an operation lever is supported on the revolution member rotatably about a second revolution axis directed at a substantially right angle to the first revolution axis, and first switch means is mounted on the base plate such that it is operated in a direction parallel to the second revolution axis by the operation lever through the revolution member. Accordingly, a distance between the first revolution axis and an operation portion of the first switch means is kept sufficiently long so that the first switch means can be operated reliably.

A self-cancelling mechanism is mounted on a steering column of a vehicle, is used for a turn-signal device signalling a change of a running direction of the vehicle and switches off turn-signal lamps by a returning rotation of a steering wheel. A ratchet is pivotally supported to a bracket pivoted to the steering column and is operated by a driver, and a cancelling cam body is arranged between the ratchet and the steering shaft. The ratchet is rotatable from its neutral position against the bracket up to a pair of rotation positions and is forced to the neutral position by an elastic member so that, even if the ratchet is suddenly returned back to the neutral position by the rotation of the steeling shaft in an anticancelling direction, striking noise does not occur.

This disclosure is directed to an improved lever switch arrangement for use in a motor vehicle and the like, in which positions of a control lever are clearly indicated through illumination particularly at night for improved operability, while the illumination of the control lever positions is also utilized to display the state of functionings of switch members incorporated in the control lever.
摘要:
An operation lever is mounted on a base for mounting a turn-signal switch provided to a steering column and is elongated in the radius direction of the steering column, the operation lever being capable of being operated from a neutral position selectively to a resume position or a coast position. A vehicle-speed controlling circuit is actuated to set a vehicle-speed according to the operation of the operation lever.
摘要:
Operation members for a turn-signal switch signalling a change of an advance course of an automobile and operation members for a hazard switch signalling an emergency situation of the automobile are arranged close to one another on the same plane, the former is of a knob type swingingly operated and the latter is of a push button type repeatedly operated. Both the switches possess in common an insulator.Accordingly, both the switches are able to be arranged reasonably on a steering column and improved in operations ability. In addition, connection among contacts and fixed to the insulator is able to be simplified.

An improved combination switching arrangement for use in a motor vehicle or the like includes a plurality of actuators to be displaced by operation of a control lever, and a switch unit having a switch base on which switch elements to be selectively opened or closed by the movements of the actuators are fixed. The switch elements are disposed on the upper surface and the under surface of the switch base, while at least one set of the actuators are movably provided at the upper and under surfaces of the switch base so as to be connected to each other through an opening formed in the switch base for simple construction and compact size of the switching arrangement.
摘要:
A switch assembly for use in a vehicle including a body carrying a turn indicator switch and a dimmer and passing switch, a rotatable member rotatably mounted on the body for actuating the turn indicator switch, and a bifurcated lever having first and second arms. The first arm is pivotally connected to the rotatable member for pivotal movement of the lever in a direction perpendicular to the direction of rotation of the rotatable member and the second arm is provided in association with the dimmer and passing switch so that rotation of the lever together with the rotatable member controls the turn indicator switch and the pivotal movement of the lever controls the dimmer and passing switch. A plurality of vertical and horizontal notches are formed in a face between the first and second arms for the engagement with a pin mounted in the body to hold the lever in the pivoted and rotated positions.
