A timed delay device arranged for alternately providing either an ON delay or an OFF delay operation of a switch operator, comprising:
- a switch actuator movable between a first operated position and a second operated position for moving the switch operator from a first to a second position, a resettable timing unit having an operator movable from a reset position to a timed-out position during a regulated timed period, a first spring-biased latch having a portion releasably engaging the switch actuator for maintaining the switch actuator at its first position when the first latch is positioned in a latching position and a portion engageable with the timing unit operator for positioning the first latch in a released position when the timing unit operator is in its timed-out position, a second spring-biased latch having a portion releasably engaging the switch actuator for maintaining the switch actuator at its second position when the second latch is positioned in a latching position and a portion engageable with the timing unit operator for positioning the second latch in a released position when the timing unit is in its timed-out position, a first reset lever having a portion engageable with the timing unit operator for moving the timing unit operator to the reset position when the first reset lever is moved from a first position to a second position, a second reset lever having a portion engageable with the timing unit operator for moving the timing unit operator to the reset position when the second reset lever is moved from a first to a second position, a timing unit actuator moveable between a first position and a second position and having a portion engageable with a portion on the first reset lever for moving the first reset lever from its first position to its second position when the timing unit actuator is moved from its second position to its first position and a portion engageable with a portion on the second reset lever for moving the second reset lever from its first position to its second position when the timing unit actuator is moved from its first to its second position, and a mode selector movable to a first mode selected position and a second mode selected position and having a portion engageable with the first latch for maintaining the first latch in its released position and a portion positioning the first reset lever in its first position when the mode selector is at its first position and a portion engageable with the second latch for maintaining the second latch in its released position and a portion positioning the second reset lever in its first position when the mode selector is at its second position.
