Referring tothe drawings more particularly by reference numerals, indicates generally a differential pressure switch embodying the teachings of the present invention.

rlhe switch 2S includes a housing having a dish-like base member 22, a center ring assembly 2d, and a cup-like cover member 26, in juxtaposition as shown in Fig. 3; the three members being fastened together by machine screws 29.

Disposed between the base member 22 and the center ring assembly 24 in a diaphragm 3|), and disposed between the center ring assembly 23 and the cover member 23 is another diaphragm 32, the two diaphragme and the three members defining an inner chamber 33 and a pair of outer chambers 34.

The diaphragms and 32 are made in the shape shown in Figs. l and 5 of preferably a resilient electricity conducting material, preferably beryllium copper, and are of substantially the same thickness and size and have substantially the same mass, the same coefficient of expansion, and the same vibration characteristics. Preferably, both diaphragms should face the same way, as shown in Figs. 3 and 5. Each diaphragm has a cylindrical contact 35 with a rounded inner end fastened adjacent the center thereof, the contacts 35 being in alignment and extending into the inner chamber for a purpose to appear.

Flat annular gaskets 36 0f rubber or like ma terial are disposed between the diaphragms and the members adjacent thereto at their marginal portions so as to seal the chambers against the escape of air or gas.

The base member 22 (Fig. 3) is perfectly circular in shape and includes a peripheral ange portion 3l which contains a plurality of spaced openings 3S formed therein to receive the free ends of the fastening screws 29.

Mounting lugs 33 (Figs. 1 and 2) extend from the periphery of the base member 22 for fastening the switch 20 to a xed support.

The cover member 26 (Figs. 1, 2 and 3) is also preferably cylindrical in shape and includes a base portion de and a peripheral flange portion The flange portion 112 contains a plurality of spaced openings 5:3 which are in alignment with the openings 38 in the base member, and which receive the head ends of the screws 29. Openings are also contained in the diaphragms and 32 in alignment with the openings 38 and d3, so that the screws 23 can pass through. The openings in the diaphragms are made larger than the others, however, so the screws 29 wont short the diaphragms.

Extending normal to the base portion 40 is a cylindrical wall 33 which forms a chamber to receive switches, relays, wiring, etc., which form no part or the present invention.

A flat cover 43 and an annular gasket 53 are removably fastened to the outer edge of the wall 3 by screws 52 (Fig. 3).

An opening 5Fl (Fig. 1) is contained in the cover and an externally threaded cylindrical electrical disconnect receptacle is fastened to the cover fill in alignment with the openings 54 by means of screws 58.

The center ring assembly 24 (Figs. 6 and l0) includes a flat annular body portion S0 and a pair of diametrically opposed upper and lower projections 'E2 and 54, respectively, which are formed integral with the body portion and extend outwardly therefrom.

The body portion 60 contains spaced openings 55 in alignment with openings 38 and 43 to receive the machine screws 29.

The lower projection 54 contains two inwardly extending passageways G5 and 63 (Fig. 4), the outer portions of the passageways containing internal threads to receive the ends of tubes or pipes which are in communication with the pressure sources, as will appear.

The passageway G0 extends through the annular body portion 60 so as to be in communication with the inner pressure chamber 33.

The passageway GS extends partially through the body portion 30 and intersects another passageway 'l0 which extends transversely through the body portion 30 (Fig. 8). Openings are contained in the diaphragms 3G and 32 and the gaskets 35 in alignment with the ends of the passageway l0. As shown in Fig. 13, angular passageways '12 and 1d are contained in the flange portions 42 and 37, respectively, and connect the ends of the transverse passageway 'I0 with the outer chambers 34. Thus, the pipe or tube connected to the outer end of the passageway 60 is in communication with both outer chambers 34, and they are in communication with each other.

As shown in Figs. 7 and 1l, a passageway '1G extends transversely through the annular body portion G5 and is in alignment with the inner end of a passageway 'Z3 which extends from the chamber 46 through a flange portion t2 of the cover member 2t. Openings are contained in the diaphragm 32 and the gaskets 3E in alignment with these passageways.

An insulated wire extends through the passageways IB-'I6 and is connected to the diaphragm 30 adjacent its edge.

Another passageway 82 (Fig. 12) extends from the chamber 45 through the flange portion e2 of the cover member 28, adjacent the passageway i8. The gasket 35 adjacent one side of the diaphragm 32 contains an opening in alignment with the end of the passageway 82.

A second insulated wire S4 extends through the passageway 82 and is connected to the diaphragm 32.

Thus, there is one electrical circuit from the wire 8), through the diaphragm 33 to the contact 35 adjacent the center thereof, and a second circuit from the wire SG through the diaphragm 32 to the contact 35 adjacent its center.

As shown in Figs. 4 and 5, the upper projection 52 which extends from the body portion E0 has a flat upper surface 36, and contains three parallel openings 88, and 92 which are of circular cross section and which extend inwardly from the surface 88 to the inner chamber 33. The outer portion of the opening S0 is slightly enlarged so as to provide a shoulder 35 inwardly of the upper surface 86.

Rigidly fastened in the openings 88 and 92 are a pair of cylindrical elongated stop members 96 which extend into the inner chamber 33 and which contain vertically extending slots 98.

Disposed in the center opening 90 is an adjustable supporting assembly which includes a screw member |00 comprising a head portion |02 which contains a slot |04, a iiange portion |06 (disposed above the shoulder 94) and a threaded body portion |08.

An annular metal washer ||0 is disposed in the opening 93 around the head portion |02 and another annular metal washer ||2 and a rubber gasket 3 are disposed between the ilange Dortion |06 ,and the shoulder 94.

In-ethetlatter casey-the-reon-"facts 35 thermore, the same thing is true when a change in temperature occurs. Inasmuch as both diaphragms are the same size, have the same coefcient of expansion, face the same direction, and are subjected to the same temperatures, any change in temperature in the outer chambers 34 due, for example, to a change in altitude in the aircraft, will aiTect them equally and cause like movement of the diaphragms.

Because there are two diaphragms in the switch and because they .both move inwardly the same distance, each has to move only half the distance required oi a single diaphragm type switch, so that the switch 20 is twice as sensitive as the switches employing a single diaphragm.

Another advantage of this switch is that there is no arcing of any kind in the outer chambers so that it can be used in installations where it is desirable or necessary to use combustible gases in the outer chambers.

Thus, it is apparent that there has been provided a novel differential pressure switch which fuliills all of the objects and advantages sought therefor.

It is to be understood that the foregoing clescription and the accompanying drawings have been given only by way of illustration and example, and that changes and alterations in the present disclosure, which will be readily apparent to one skilled in the art, are contemplated as within the scope of the present invention, which is limited only by the claims which follow.
