| 发明名称 | Covered sliding operator | ||
| 摘要 | A covered sliding operator includes a body; a slot formed in the body; a spindle extending through the slot and which is slidable along the length of the slot; and a generally oval cover rotatably mounted on the spindle. The body has a first impinging wall and a second impinging wall. The cover is shaped such that: when the spindle is central in the slot, the cover completely covers the slot; moving the spindle towards the first end of the slot moves the cover against the first impinging wall and causes it to rotate in a first direction such that the slot remains completely covered by the cover; and moving the spindle towards the second end of the slot moves the cover against the second impinging wall and causes it to rotate in a second direction such that the slot remains completely covered by the cover. | ||

| 主权项 | 1. A covered sliding operator comprising: a body; a slot formed in the body having a first end and a second end and a length extending from the first end to the second end; a spindle extending through the slot and mounted to be slidable along the length of the slot; and a generally oval cover rotatably mounted on the spindle; wherein, the body has a first impinging wall formed on an inner side of the slot and spaced a distance from the first end of the slot and a second impinging wall formed on an inner side of the slot and spaced a distance from the second end of the slot; andthe cover is shaped such that: when the spindle is central in the slot a width of the cover completely covers the slot, from the first end to the second end; moving the spindle towards the first end of the slot moves the cover against the first impinging wall and causes it to rotate in a first direction such that the slot remains completely covered by the cover; and moving the spindle towards the second end of the slot moves the cover against the second impinging wall and causes it to rotate in a second direction such that the slot remains completely covered by the cover. | ||
