ABSTRACT:
A single in-line package switch comprises a dielectric frame along which movable electrical contact members are disposed. An electrical bus contact is mounted on support members of the dielectric frame, each of the movable contact members extending between a pair of the support members. Each of the movable contact members has a sinusoidal contact section, one end of the contact section being secured in the dielectric frame as a terminal section while the free end of the contact section is disposed within a recess of an actuating member pivotally mounted on the pair of support members between which the contact section is disposed. A housing member is secured onto the dielectric frame with actuating sections of the actuating members being operable from one surface of the housing member to one position thereby moving the sinusoidal contact sections in electrical engagement with the bus contact and to another position thereby moving the sinusoidal contact sections free of the bus contact, the spring forces of the sinusoidal contact sections maintaining the contact sections and the actuating members in the one or the other position.
