Switch assembly having a rocker switch connected to a remote actuator

DETAILED DESCRIPTION It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved electrical switch connected to a remote actuator.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide an electrical switch connected to a remote actuator which has an ease of assembly and a minimal number of components.
It is an additional object of the present invention to provide an electrical switch connected to a remote actuator which provides for ease of assembly and disassembly of the switch and actuator from a connecting cable.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a switch assembly which includes a remote actuator and an electrical rocker switch.
The switch assembly of the present invention has an actuator having a body with at least one movable section.
The switch assembly also has a rocker switch having at least one movable cap which is movable to one switch position of at least two switch positions of the rocker switch.
An activating assembly is provided which has a housing containing at least one movable part contacting the movable cap of the rocker switch.
A means for connecting is provided for joining the movable section of the actuating member to the movable cap of the rocker switch.
When the movable section is moved, the movable cap is changed from one switch position to another switch position via the means for connecting and the activating assembly.
In a preferred embodiment the actuator has a body containing the movable section attached thereto at a pivot access.
The movable section has a first end removably connected to the means for connecting.
The means for connecting in the preferred embodiment is a cable having an outer sheath and an inner connector.
A first end of the cable has the outer sheath removably attached to the body and has the inner connector connected to the first end of the movable section.
The activating assembly has the housing containing the movable part connected to the outer sheath at a second end of the cable with the movable part having a first end removably attached to the inner connector of the cable
