Abstract
A flip cover functioning as a protective guard preventing accidental switch actuation and as a mechanical indicator of switch position. Cooperating slidable abutment elements on the push-button head of the switch and on the flip cover maintain the flip cover in outwardly tilted position with the switch latched in actuated position. With the switch pushed into latch-releasing position the abutment elements are relatively so positioned as to permit the switch to return to its released or unactuated position, the abutment elements slipping past each other to permit return of the flip cover into its normal guard position.
