ABSTRACT:
The switch for timer is comprised of a single pole, double throw switch. The switch includes a plurality of contact arms, the two outer arms being substantially fixed in disposition while a center arm is capable of movement therebetween to positions of contact. A slot extends in substantially a longitudinal direction from one end of the center arm. The slot provides a demarcation between the contact carrying portion of the center arm and a portion adapted to be connected with an actuator through a spring. Movement of the actuator imparts movement to the center arm by snap action from one stable position of contact to another. However, up to the instant of a break as the actuator passes through an over center position the slot permits the contact carrying portion to maintain good contact pressure against the contact at one of the positions.
