ABSTRACT:
A foot operated control unit is provided with a base to be placed or fixed in non-sliding engagement on a floor or other supporting surface, and the actuating member is a cover mounted for sliding movement on the base. The cover is dimensioned so that the operator can place his foot on the top thereof and by pressing forwardly or rearwardly thereon, slide the cover longitudinally of the base. Relative movement of the cover and base is utilized to function one or more control elements such as a valve, switch, rheostat or the like mounted on the base.
