ABSTRACT:
A multi-position selector switch of the sliding bridging contact type having a molded plastic base and a metal cover closing the open top of the base and also serving to pivot the operating lever. A plurality of similar one-piece stationary contact-terminals are inserted through holes in the bottom of the base and are held in place by a plastic liner that is dropped in to hug the walls of the base and is clamped down by the cover. The stationary contact-terminals have pairs of wings recessed in the bottom of the base whereby they are held in place by the plastic liner. A movable bridging contact is spring-biased on a reciprocal actuator block that is detented to the cover. The inner end of the operating lever extends into a slot in the actuator block whereby the latter is moved over the stationary contacts from one detent to another. The switch parts are designed for simplicity and east of manufacture and automated assembly.
