Abstract
A toggle switch includes a double-pivoting actuator for alternately actuating at least a pair of switches and a pivotable toggle lever having detents for maintaining the toggle lever in one or more positions. The toggle lever includes a spherically shaped pivot portion which is provided with a pair of flat surfaces for preventing rotation of the toggle lever about its longitudinal axis.
