ABSTRACT:
A snap acting switch comprising an elongate cantilever mounted spring member having a contact portion, an electrically conductive element upon which the contact portion bears, and an actuator having surfaces intersecting at an angle, one of the surfaces bearing on the spring member. The switch is actuated by causing the spring member to approach and pass over the intersection of the surfaces, which causes the bearing pressure of the contact portion to increase before the snap action occurs.
