Abstract: An automotive brake switch including a body having a linearly traveling profiled carriage which makes or breaks various circuits as the carriage travels. The switch includes a plunger which, at first, is free to move relative to the carriage, but upon installation is locked to the carriage. A rotatable lever arm holds the carriage in a desired neutral operating position, and maintains free movement of the plunger relative to the carriage. When the switch body is installed, the plunger comes into contact with an arm of the brake which causes the brake to move against the force from a spring to assume a desired adjustment position relative to the carriage for proper operation. The rotatable lever arm is turned to lock the plunger to the carriage and to free the carriage for travel within the body. Thereafter, the carriage responds to movement of the plunger caused by the brake arm to make and break circuits in the normal fashion to control the operation of cruise control, stop lamps, etc.

Abstract: A permanent magnet rotor, wherein a magnet cage includes a plurality of equally spaced, longitudinally extending, selectively shaped legs, a sleeve mounted within the inner surfaces of the legs, and a shaft press fitted through the sleeve. A plurality of wedge-shaped magnets are inserted between adjacent legs around the sleeve, retained by the shapes of adjacent leg surfaces. A cover plate having chamfered slots is mounted on the leg ends against the magnets. The ends of the legs are staked in the chamfered slots to secure the rotor assembly.
