ABSTRACT:
A foot pedal is provided for operating a motor-control switch. The foot pedal consists of a housing and pedal which have an internally molded hinge construction for pivotally mounting the pedal on the housing. The foot pedal also contains a flat spring mounted on the pedal and positioned over a motor-control switch such that when the foot pedal is actuated, the flat spring functions to control the movement of the switch of the motor-control circuit. The flat spring also keeps the pedal positioned on the housing, and isolates the interior housing from over-travel.
