摘要:
A multiple circuit switch for use as an appliance timer is disclosed. The switch includes a housing and a disc rotatably mounted within the housing and having a cam face spaced from and parallel to a flat housing wall. A plurality of switches are provided between the cam face and the wall and are adapted to be opened and closed by concentrically disposed, radially spaced cam tracks on the cam face. The flat housing wall carries a plurality of flat conductors and each of a plurality of those conductors is electrically connected to at least one switch terminal, and each of a plurality of those conductors terminates at an edge of the housing in parallel alignment to other conductors for connection to other circuitry.

A control system is disclosed for washers, dryers and the like in which a motor-driven timer automatically operates the appliance through a predetermined cycle. The control system includes a mounting base adapted to be permanently connected to the appliance frame and a motor-driven timer which is removably plugged into the base with electrical connectors which function to provide electrical connection and the mounting of the timer. The connectors are provided in a pattern which prevents improper installation. Separate terminal assemblies are provided to plug into the rearward face of the timer for additional connections. Here again, the terminals provide both the electrical connection and the mounting of the terminal blocks.

A rotary switch has a shaft that can be manually rotated and reciprocated. A detent structure normally holds the shaft in a selected axial position. The detent mechanism includes a retaining clip having lugs that can be manually bent to lock components in assembled relation, and a resilient clip ensuring continuous electrical continuity between the control shaft and the mounting means whereby the control shaft is grounded.
