Proximity switch mounting plate

摘要

The mounting plate for a proximity switch for sensing the position of a piston within a fluid operated, expansible chamber cylinder. The mounting plate comprises a flat portion with two notches formed therein adjacent opposite sides thereof and an arcuate flange adjoining the flat portion having means forming an aperture therein. The proximity switch is mounted onto the tie rod of the expansible chamber cylinder, with the mounting plate interposed therebetween with the arcuate flange thereof positioned to be concentric with and spaced apart from the surface of the expansible chamber cylinder. A threaded fastening device is inserted through the aperture and turned until the proximity switch is correctly positioned.
