Abstract
A safety switch for use in a gas combustor is disposed on a gas combustor having a rear opening, and a press button is arranged adjacent to the rear opening; the safety switch includes a locking member and a swing arm, the locking member has a main body sleeved with a longitudinal spring, and a locking hook protruded from a location towards a latching hook arranged above the swing arm, wherein a transversal spring is disposed between an extending sheet below the swing arm and the inner wall of the gas combustor; when the locking member is not pressed, the locking hook is abutted against the latching hook, a locking bolt protruded from a bottom end of the press button is abutted against the locking hook, so that the press button is unable to be pressed, thereby forming a locked status.
Claims6
A safety switch for use in a gas combustor, disposed on the gas combustor having a rear opening, and a press button being arranged adjacent to said rear opening;
- said safety switch including a locking member and a swing arm arranged to be adjacent to said locking member and pivotally connected to an inner wall of said gas combustor, wherein said locking member has a main body sleeved with a longitudinal spring, said main body has a push piece protruded from said rear opening, and a locking hook protruded from a location towards a latching hook arranged above said swing arm, wherein a transversal spring is disposed between an extending sheet below said swing arm and said inner wall of said gas combustor;
- when said push piece is not pressed, said locking hook is abutted against said latching hook, said locking hook of said main body is located between said latching hook and a push arm of the press button, and a locking bolt protruded from a bottom end of said press button is abutted against said locking hook, so that said press button is unable to be pressed, thereby forming a locked status;
- when said push piece is longitudinally and downwardly pressed, said longitudinal spring is compressed, and said locking hook of said main body is downwardly displaced along said latching hook and a top of said locking hook of said main body engages a bottom of said latching hook to form a mutual abutting status and said locking hook of said main body is spaced apart from the locking bolt and said push arm of the press button, thus said locking bolt is no longer provided with an abutting effect of said locking member, thereby forming a pressing unlocked status and, when said press button is pressed to move horizontally, said push arm of said press button presses said latching hook and said latching hook is pivoted and released from said locking hook, and said locking member is upwardly displaced through an energy releasing effect of said longitudinal spring, and a top surface of said locking hook is in contact with said locking bolt.
