In the manual operation, the switch (toggle switch) action can be divided into two stages. The first stage is to turn the lever towards the center until it is in a vertical position. At this time, the tip of the single knife slide block is gradually closer to the middle until the middle position, and the compression spring is further compressed. After the lever is over the vertical position, the single-knife slide moves rapidly in the other direction under the action of the compression spring pressure, and drives the lever to turn quickly. At this time, the moving contact piece is quickly separated from the fixing foot on one side and quickly connected with the fixing foot on the other side. This is the second stage. At this time, the separation speed of the contact is related to the size of the press spring pressure and the friction force between the moving parts, and the speed is very high. According to the test, the time from contact disengagement to reconnection is only about milliseconds, with an average speed of several millimeters of seconds. This speed is many times faster than manual or maneuvering test speed.
Notes for the toggle switch
(1). Firstly, the appropriate type of switch and connector should be selected according to the use conditions and functions.
(2) switch (toggle switch), connector rated voltage, current to leave a certain margin
(3). In order to have reliable contact, the number of wires of the contact and connector of the switch should have a certain margin, so as to be used in parallel or reserved.
(4). Try to choose the connector with positioning, so as not to insert wrong and cause fault.
(5) Contact connection and welding is reliable, in order to prevent line break and short circuit, welding should be protected by sleeve.
