A spool deflection indicator comprising a shank and an integral enlarged switch housing supporting a switch. The shank pivotally supports a rod which is connected at one end to a horizontally movable spool located below the indicator. The other end of the rod opposite the spool has a cam with a concave indentation. The concave indentation is aligned with a switch button on the switch. When the spool moves, the cam also moves causing the concave indentation to become misaligned with the switch button thereby depressing it and changing the mode of the switch.

An electric switch wherein a fixed contact is engaged by a tiltable and reciprocable second contact under the action of an elastic washer or a coil spring. The second contact can be tilted by a projection, which extends from the housing, in cooperation with a flat abutment in the housing. When the projection is tilted, it causes the second contact to pivot relative to the abutment and to become disengaged from the fixed contact. The projection can be tilted by a bar or a tube which must be displaced by a person or object tending to penetrate into a danger zone, such as the nip of two cylinders in a printing machine or a machine tool. A third contact can be provided to be engaged by the second contact when the latter is disengaged from the fixed contact.

Apparatus for supporting equipment in alignment and for re-aligning it when it is accidentally placed out of alignment, including a stator and rotor. The stator is supported, typically, from an overhead rack, and an item to be aligned is supported from the rotor. Should the item to be aligned accidentally be placed out of alignment, apparatus is provided on the rotor and stator to re-align the rotor--and hence the item that was placed out of alignment.

This invention discloses a contact sensing device for detecting the contact of a moving element such as a welding torch attached to a robot arm with a fixed body. The contact sensing device substantially comprises a support-side member, a work-side member, a spherical bearing mounted on either the support-side member or work-side member, a slide shaft slidably mounted on the spherical bearing, the slide shaft being slidable in an axial direction, an elastic member mounted on the slide shaft for making the work-side member biasingly come into contact with the support-side member, at least three rollers mounted on a first surface of either the support-side member or the work-side member, the rollers capable of coming into contact with a second surface of either the support-side member or the work-side member which opposes the first surface, at least one roller engaging member mounted on the second surface on which one of the rollers runs, and a limit switch actuated by the displacement of the slide shaft.

A ball bumper and switch means for pinball games and the like, wherein a blade switch is actuated by a pendantly rocked stem attached to a ball-rocked wafer or other target element. The improvements reside in a simple lock-out action between the stem and switch element which causes the switch to remain in operated condition until a resetting action is effected. Optionally, the lock-out action may be made directionally selective so that the switch means can be actuated by ball impact from any direction but the lock-out action will be effected only by impacts occurring in predetermined directions. A variety of game circuits and scoring arrangements can be controlled by the novel bumper switch means.

A light emitting diode having a helical spring around one of its leads. The spring extends so that it has a free end which is cantilevered. As the free end of the spring moves it completes an electrical circuit intermittently lighting the light emitting diode.

A low-cost, easy-to-manufacture and easy-to-use switch enclosure is described. The switch enclosure is comprised of a housing having an interior cavity, an operator opening and a conduit opening. The operator opening permits an external operator to mechanically communicate with an electrical switch, while the conduit opening allows a plurality of external wires to electrically connect to the switch. A cover plate, joined to the housing, encloses the interior cavity.
