Abstract: A simplified mechanical and electromechanical interlock system connecting automatic transfer and bypass/isolation switches in a bypass/isolation automatic transfer switch is provided, whereby the risk of hazard resulting from the misconnection of power sources through automatic transfer and bypass/isolation switches is reduced by prevention of closure of the two switches into opposite or dead sources is prevented. Related retractable table structure is also provided for moving the automatic transfer switch from a frame in which the switches are housed.

Abstract: A fishing lure comprising a shaft, means at one end of the shaft for affixing a line thereto, body member connected to the other end of the shaft, hook means connected to the body member, and a spinner rotatably mounted on the shaft, the spinner comprising a blank or strip of flat material formed into a cylindrical body portion, the axis of the imaginary cylinder of which the spinner is a peripheral portion being disposed at an acute angle with respect to the longitudinal center line of the spinner. In the preferred form a bearing member having an aperture therethrough is affixed to a central portion of the spinner with the aperture of the bearing member being superposed over an aperture provided in the blank, the axis of the aperture being disposed at an acute angle with respect to the center line of the spinner and adapted to be journalled over the shaft.

Abstract: A fishing lure comprising a shaft, means at one end of the shaft for affixing a line thereto, body member connected to the other end of the shaft, hook means connected to the body member, and a spinner rotatably mounted on the shaft, this spinner comprising a strip of flat material formed into a frustoconical body portion, the ends of the strip being folded over each other and disposed at an angle of about 90.degree. with respect to each other, the shaft being disposed in apertures provided in the spinner. In a preferred embodiment a tubular bearing is journaled over the shaft and has reduced ends which are disposed within and affixed to the apertures of the spinner to provide reduced friction.
