Description

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a switch with a light, showing my new design, in the “ON” position;

FIG. 2 is a top plan view thereof;

FIG. 3 is a side elevational view thereof, the side opposite that shown in FIG. 3 being the mirror image thereof;

FIG. 4 is a view thereof from the left of FIG. 3;

FIG. 5 is a view thereof from the right of FIG. 3; and,

FIGS. 6-10 are views similar to FIGS. 1-5, respectively, but showing the light in the “OFF” position.

The switch projects from a wall or a wall plate or a light plate; and only that portion of the switch which projects from the wall or a wall plate or a light plate is shown in the drawings. The remainder of the device is hidden in use and so its appearance is not claimed.

The member that appears as a circular device in FIGS. 2 and 7 is the light itself and is transparent and is spherical dome shaped. The rest of the device is an oscillating switch for turning the light on and off, for which purpose it oscillates between the position shown in FIGS. 1-5, on the one hand, and the position shown in FIGS. 6-10, on the other hand.

Claims
