ABSTRACT:
An improved mechanism for racking a contactor mechanism within an enclosure. The mechanism is urged into a fully-engaged position by an arm extending from a rotatable cross shaft which in turn is operated by a pair of complementary four-bar linkages. The first linkage in effect consists of a handle, connecting rod and bellcrank, the second consisting of the bellcrank and another arm, affixed to the cross shaft. An improved spring-loaded detent arm assists in holding the handle in the "racked on" position and a pivoted interlock engages the bellcrank in two positions.
