ABSTRACT:
A three-terminal thermal switch having a common connector arm biased against a terminal of fusible material. When the terminal is softened or melted by current, the connector arm is released and moves into contact against a second terminal. Positioned in the base of a long-life dual-filament incandescent light bulb, the switch causes one filament to be energized until it burns out, and then connects the other filament to be energized.
