Signal switching system for actuating winking lights to be used for two-wheeled vehicles

Claim 2

A signal switching system for actuating winking lights to be used for two-wheeled vehicles, in which at least one movable electrical contact portion for sending out operational signals for actuating said winking lights is capable of not only being selectively movable toward right and left with respect to a neutral state thereof for selectively contacting one of fixed contacts in accordance with a corresponding movement of an operational lever connected to said movable electrical contact at one portion thereof with respect to a neutral position corresponding to said neutral state of said movable electrical contact portion, but also being arranged to be resiliently brought back to said neutral state thereof, further comprises means to make said operational lever to be resiliently maintained in a substantially upward direction, and a cancelling signal switch means to send out a cancelling signal for winking lights to be put off when said operational lever including said means is pushed substantially downward at said neutral position thereof.

Claim 3

A signal switching system for actuating winking lights to be used for two-wheeled vehicles as claimed in claim 1, wherein said means to make operational lever to be resiliently maintained in a substantially upward direction comprises at least one coil spring to be spaced below said operational lever while being in a resilient state thereof.

Claim 4

A signal switching system for actuating winking lights to be used for two-wheeled vehicles as claimed in claim 1, wherein said cancelling signal switch means is microswitch means.

Claim 5

A signal switching system for actuating winking lights to be used for two-wheeled vehicles as claimed in claim 2, wherein said cancelling signal switch means is a microswitch means.

Claim 6

A signal switching system for actuating winking lights to be used for two-wheeled vehicles, which comprises a pair of covering portions whose one portion internally provided with a pair of supporting portions; a turning signal switch means interposed by said paired supporting portions, said turning signal switch means including a switch casing, an insulator having a plurality of fixed contacts on one side surface thereof and secured to said switch casing at respective ends thereof and a contact holder substantially horizontally slidably accommodated in said switch casing and having a pair of projections at a top surface thereof together with a movable contact to be in contact with one of said fixed contacts; an operational lever whose one end is projected from said covering portions while at least one portion of said operational lever being connected to said one covering portion, with a plurality of protruded portions being provided at an upper surface of said operational lever; a coil spring disposed below said operational lever while being in a relatively vertically resilient state thereof against said operational lever with reference to a base portion of said one casing portion, so that said contact holder is capable of being selectively moved toward right and left with respect to a neutral state thereof through an engagement between one of said projections and said operational lever in accordance with a corresponding movement of said operational lever resiliently maintained in a substantially upward direction with respect to a neutral position; a covering board covering said operational lever being in said upwardly urging state; a pair of springs causing said contact holder to be resiliently brought back to said neutral state thereof when said engagement is released; and a cancelling signal switch means including a contacting member and an insulating board while said contacting member being mounted on said insulating board secured to said lower casing portion, a portion of said contacting member being to be spacedly positioned so as to be contacted by said operational lever pushed substantially downward at said neutral position thereof, so that said cancelling signal switch means is to be in ON mode with a signal for said winking lights to be put off being sent out.

Claim 7

A signal switching system for actuating winking lights to be used for two-wheeled vehicles, which comprises a pair of covering portions whose one portion internally provided with a pair of supporting portions; a turning signal switch means interposed by said paired supporting portions, said turning signal switch means including a switch casing, an insulator having a plurality of fixed contacts on one side surface thereof and secured to said switch casing at respective ends thereof and a contact holder substantially horizontally slidably accommodated in said switch casing and having a pair of projections at a top surface thereof together with a movable contact to be in contact with one of said fixed contacts; an operational lever whose one end is projected from said covering portions while at least one portion of said operational lever being connected to said one covering portion, with a plurality of protruded portions being provided at an upper surface of said operational lever; a coil spring disposed below said operational lever while being in a relatively vertically resilient state thereof against said operational lever with reference to a base portion of said one casing portion, so that said contact holder is capable of being selectively moved toward right and left with respect to a neutral state thereof through an engagement between one of said projections and said operational lever in accordance with a corresponding movement of said operational lever resiliently maintained in a substantially upward direction with respect to a neutral position; a covering board covering said operational lever being in said upwardly urging state; a pair of springs causing said contact holder to be resiliently brought back to said neutral state thereof when said engagement is released; and a cancelling signal switch means including a contacting member and an insulating board while said contacting member being mounted on said insulating board secured to said lower casing portion, a portion of said contacting member being to be spacedly positioned so as to be contacted by said operational lever pushed substantially downward at said neutral position thereof, so that said cancelling signal switch means is to be in ON mode with a signal for said winking lights to be put off being sent out.

Claim 8

A signal switching system for actuating winking lights to be used for two-wheeled vehicles as claimed in claim 5, wherein said cancelling signal switch means is a microswitch means.
