ABSTRACT:
An automatic overload tripper which uses a push button to press a bent bimetal strip down against a spring which assures that a hook at an end of the bimetal strip can keep good electrical contact with a contact plate, and the hook can trip automatically at overload. The spring also pushes against the bimetal strip so that it will not restore its original position by itself after cooling, for safety purposes.
