Wall switch operator

Description

FIG. 1 is a front elevational view of a wall switch operator, showing my new design;

FIG. 2 is a right-side elevational view thereof;

FIG. 3 is a longitudinal section therethrough taken at line 3--3 in FIG. 1 and viewed in the direction of the arrows;

FIG. 4 is a rear elevational view thereof; and,

FIG. 5 is a top plan view thereof on an enlarged scale looking in the direction of arrows 5--5 in FIG. 4.

The left-hand side appearance is a mirror image of that of FIG. 2. The appearance from the bottom is the same as from the top.
