ABSTRACT:
A control linkage including an actuator mounted for movement between first and second extreme positions and an intermediate position between the extreme positions, springs for restoring the actuator to the intermediate position from either extreme position upon release of the actuator by an operator thereof, a multiple-toothed member adapted to be connected to a mechanism to be controlled by the linkage, the member being mounted for shifting movement between at least three positions, an element having a nose and mounted for selective engagement with the teeth on the toothed member to shift the toothed member between the three positions thereof, the teeth and the nose being constructed and arranged so that the nose may be cammed out of effective engagement with the teeth upon relative movement between the element and the member and a linkage interconnecting the actuator and the element for moving the nose in opposite directions when the actuator is moved to or from its intermediate position from or to its extreme position and for positively engaging the nose and the teeth when the actuator is moved from its intermediate position to either of its extreme positions and allowing the nose to be cammed out of effective engagement with the teeth when the actuator is moved from either of its extreme positions to its intermediate position.
