Abstract:
An electrical switch includes a pivotally supported blade, a toggle mechanism, and an operating mechanism. The operating mechanism is drivable in a first direction to pivot the blade about a first axis and toward a closed blade position. When pivoting toward the closed blade position, the toggle mechanism inhibits the blade from pivoting about a second axis. Upon reaching the closed blade position, continued motion of the operating mechanism in the first direction causes the toggle mechanism to pivot the blade about the second axis toward a closed contact position. In the closed contact position, the blade contacts at least one blade contact to electrically connect the blade and a first electrical terminal.

Claim (Index 1):
An electrical switch, comprising:\n a frame configured to connect to a utility structure; a first electrical terminal electrically insulatively supported by the frame, the first electrical terminal including at least one blade contact; a blade support housing electrically insulatively supported by the frame and disposed apart from the first electrical terminal, the blade support housing being pivotally supported so as to be pivotable about a first axis relative to the frame; a blade pivotally supported by the blade support housing so as to be pivotable about a second axis relative to the blade support housing; a toggle mechanism including:\n a first toggle member fixedly connected to the blade; \n a second toggle member movably supported by the blade and pivotally fixed relative to the blade support housing; \n a biasing member forcing the second toggle member to engage the first toggle member; \n an operating mechanism connected to the blade through the first toggle member; and wherein the operating mechanism is drivable in a first direction to pivot the blade support housing and the blade about the first axis and toward a closed blade position, in the closed blade position the blade being disposed proximate and engageable with the first electrical terminal, when pivoting toward the closed blade position the second toggle member engaging the first toggle member to inhibit the blade from pivoting about the second axis relative to the blade support housing, upon reaching the closed blade position continued motion of the operating mechanism in the first direction causing the first toggle member to slip relative to the second toggle member and thereby pivot the blade about the second axis toward a closed contact position, and in the closed contact position the blade contacts the at least one blade contact to electrically connect the blade and the first electrical terminal.
