Abstract
Disclosed is a reversing speed control switch. This control switch has a trigger arranged on a casing, a movable element which is moved upon operation of the trigger, a power switch for switching, on and off, a power source to be interlocked with the operation of the movable element, a reversing switch, connected to the switch, for switching the polarity of the power source, a reversing actuator whose shaft portion coupled to the reversing switch is located in the central portion the casing, and whose actuation portion is located outside the casing, and a speed control circuit for performing speed control, upon operation of the trigger. The movable element, the switch, and the speed control circuit are arranged around the shaft portion.
Claims5
A reversing speed control switch comprising:
- a casing;
- a holding member within the casing;
- movable element means within the casing for movement linearly along the holding member;
- trigger actuation means outside the casing for so moving the movable element means;
- power switch means having a plurality of first stationary contacts on an inner, side surface of the casing and a first movable contact on the movable element means selectively movable into contact with one of the first stationary contacts upon the movement of the movable element means for switching a power source connected to the first stationary contacts on and off in response the movement of the movable element means;
- reversing actuating means having a shaft rotatably extending through the holding member and an actuator outside the casing to rotate the shaft;
- reversing switch means having at least one second movable contact on an inner end face of the shaft and a plurality of second stationary contacts opposing the end face of the shaft on an inner, end surface of the casing adjacent to the inner, side surface of the casing with the plurality of first stationary contacts, the second stationary contacts being connected to the first stationary contacts for reversing the polarity of power switched on by the power switch means;
- and
- speed control means operative between the movable element means and the holding member and connected to the first and second stationary contacts for controlling the power reversibly switched on thereby in accordance with the movement of the movable element means, whereby to provide speed control.
