A wireless switch includes a switch body, a push button connected to the switch body in a state of being movable along an approaching/separating direction between a non-operating position and an operating position, a signal output device accommodated in the switch body and configured to output a switch signal in response to a movement of the push button from the non-operating position to the operating position, and a restriction member that restricts the movement of the push button from the non-operating position to the operation position when the push button is located at the non-operating position.

Wireless switch

A limit switch may be provided with a switch body having a contact mechanism inside, and an operation unit connected to the switch body. The operation unit comprises an elastic part that energizes the operation lever from the first motion position towards the return position via the pivoting shaft and the first cam, and energizes the operation lever from the second motion position toward the return position via the pivoting shaft and the second cam, a first cam's pivoting restriction part that restricts the pivoting of the first cam in a first direction in which the operation lever moves from the return position to the second motion position, and a second cam's pivoting restriction part that restricts the pivoting to the second cam in a second direction in which die operation lever moves from the return position to the first motion position.

Limit switch

A limit switch is provided with a switch body having a contact mechanism inside, and an operation unit detachably connected to the switch body. The operation unit may include a pivoting shaft and a bearing. One of the pivoting shaft and the bearing includes a protrusion that extends in a radial direction with respect to the pivoting shaft. The other of the pivoting shaft and the hearing includes a pivoting restriction part that is disposed around the pivoting shaft so as to be able to contact the protrusion, and restricts pivoting of the protrusion around the pivoting shaft.

A limit switch is provided with a switch body having a contract mechanism inside, and an operation unit connected to the switch body. The operation unit may include a pivoting shaft support that permits pivoting of the pivoting shaft with respect to the housing body in a state of an external force along the extending direction of the pivoting shaft being not applied to the operation lever, and contacts the peripheral wall to support the pivoting shaft in a state of an external force along the extending direction of the pivoting shaft being applied to the operation lever.

Box cover for limit switch

A limit switch having a housing having a box, an attachment hold made in a side surface of the box, having a cylindrical bearing section, a rotating shaft rotatably inserted through the cylindrical bearing section, a cam unit provided in a leading end portion of the rotating shaft, and an operation lever provided in the other end portion of the rotating shaft. Rotational action of the operation lever is converted into vertical action by the cam unit in the box. A contact of a switch main body accommodated in and fixed to the housing is opened and closed. An outer diameter of the cam unit is smaller than an inner diameter of the attachment hole.

Limit switch and method for producing same

A limit switch is provided that is returned to an original position even if a turning angle of a turning lever becomes 90 degrees. In a section perpendicular to a turning shaft, a cam is formed such that a whole contact surface of the cam with a cam receiver is located on a side of the cam receiver with respect to a shaft center of the turning shaft when the external force does not act on the turning lever.

A switch has a rotary shaft that rotates in response to an external force, a cam provided on the rotary shaft and including a cam action section, wherein the cam rotates in response to the rotation of the rotary shaft, a displacement member including a cam support section that contacts the cam action section, wherein the displacement member is displaced in response to the cam support section being pressed by the cam action section rotating, and a switch module that performs an on-off action in response to the displacement of the displacement member. The cam action section is made of a metal. The cam support section is made of a resin softer than the cam action section.

Switch

A limit switch has a housing having an opening in a front surface of the housing, and a connection hole in which a lead wire is drawn made in a bottom surface of the housing, a switch main body fixed in the housing, a front surface of which is vertically partitioned into a plurality of stages, a pair of fixed contact terminals embedded at each of the stages, an operation shaft exposed from a ceiling surface of the switch main body, a contact that is opened and closed by driving the operation shaft in a shaft center direction, and a projection provided between the fixed contact terminals embedded at the stages of the front surface of the switch main body.

An object detecting actuator and an object detecting switch with increased durability. The actuator in one embodiment includes a roller that receives a load of an external force; and a roller lever to which the roller is rotatably attached by means of a rotary shaft, the actuator being a displacement member that is displaced in accordance with the load of the force received by the roller, wherein the roller is constituted by a sintered body of stainless steel material impregnated with lubricating oil, and a density of the sintered body of stainless steel material is in a range of 6.45 to 6.7 g/cm.
