<p>A miniature toggle switch having an actuator (20) pivotally mounted in a base (2) for operating contacts (8, 10, 12, 16). A switch lock is provided by a one-piece leaf spring (34) press-in mounted at one end in a slot (20f) in a side ledge of the actuator so that its other end abuts a shoulder (2g) in the base to lock the switch in one position. This lock spring is provided with a knee bend (34c) that sticks out beyond and below the actuator ledge (20d) in which it is mounted. A removable operating lever (26) has a pair of hooks (26a, 26b) for snap-on mounting it on the side ledges of the actuator. One of these hooks engages the knee bend (34c) of the lock spring to bias it clear of the shoulder (2g) to allow normal switch operation. A lamp (28) is mounted in the bottom of the base and extends up through a hole (20c) in the actuator to light the operating lever (26) as an indication.</p> |
