ABSTRACT:
An improved limit switch operator head assembly is disclosed. The assembly includes a rotatable operating shaft which is rotatable in reverse switch commutating directions, and a helically coiled torsion spring for effecting return of the operating shaft to a center or non switch commutating position. It further includes a U-shaped member formed of thin spring steel which is held in friction producing abutting relation against the coils of the torsion spring to damp the snap-back action of the latter and thereby prevent reverse rotations of the operating shaft beyond its center position.
