ABSTRACT:
A switching mechanism has at least two terminals partly positioned within a housing and a reciprocal actuator movable within the housing. A coil spring, under endwise buckling pressure, is mounted between spaced portions of one of the terminals, with movement of the actuator causing the coil spring to pivotally move toward and away from another terminal. A slider is positioned in one end of the coil spring and arranged for contact with the actuator to cause pivotal movement of the coil spring. The actuator and slider have cooperating means for latching the actuator in an operated position.
