Abstract
A lever actuator is described that includes: a frame; a lever movably coupled to the frame, the lever comprising a contact portion; a multi-position track disposed in one of the lever and the frame, the multi-position track being continuous and comprising a plurality of ledges defining a plurality of discrete track positions; and a follower arm coupled to the frame and the lever by way of a track pin. The track pin is movable within the multi-position track. A force applied to the contact portion of the lever causes the track pin to advance among a respective one of the ledges to a subsequent discrete track position in a first direction.
