ABSTRACT:
A sensor switch is described for use within an object handling conveying system such as a baggage conveying system, adapted for actuation by passing objects, such as baggage, though not limited thereto, or a transport vehicle, for objects or materials, by engagement against an upstanding sensor element.The sensor element comprises a semi-elliptical shell, topped by a vertical stem, and is mounted for depression and angular deflection, against spring support means, when engaged laterally by a unit object, or a transport vehicle. The spring support means includes an element which actuates a microswitch when the sensor element is thus depressed and/or tilted. The circuit of the microswitch energizes an indicator, such as a signal light, for information of a distantly located operator.
