SWITCH Russian patent published in 2000 - IPC

FIELD: electrical engineering, in particular, low-voltage instantaneous-action switches, which provide double break of electric circuit. SUBSTANCE: device has housing, mobile control member, which is located in guiding slots of housing, which limit uppermost position of control member. In addition device has stationary contacts, which end with flat rod terminals, returning spring, mobile traverse with contacts, and switching compression springs, which connect traverse to control member, so that spring force in initial position of control member ensures pressing of traverse contacts against lower pair of stationary contacts. Side facets of control member have link guides, which are designed as ribs positioned at angle with respect to movement direction of control member and are connected to traverse members. EFFECT: improved commutation. 2 dwg
