ABSTRACT:
A switch for connecting a load to a power source has a first rotatable ratchet wheel which meshes with a unidrectionally rotatable second ratchet wheel, which meshes with mating teeth on an interior-facing surface face of a stationary ratchet face. The ratchet wheels are biassed together via a spring such that one end may be brought into contact with a load, while the other end is in contact with a power source. The switch moves the one end into or out of contact with the load for making or breaking the electrical circuit.
