  • I am asking you for help, I need to do a paper and I cannot find information on how dependent works, like an independent isostat, how to fuse them together and what is this fusion.

    Moderated By Marek_Skalski:

    I moved the topic to the Tutorials section, as it may be interesting for beginners.

    Hello,
    were you looking at all? there is a lot about it.
    Generally, it's a type of switch (I assume that's what you mean), see what it looks like, on the slider you have contacts depending on the location of the appropriate pins and that's it.
    Dependent / Independent = "depressing" one isostat causes "jumps" of other dependent (mechanical coupling) in the case of independent everyone can have any position.
    Regards

    Combined isostat were used in such old landline telephones, type ZAS 2 with 3 (8 buttons) and ZAS 2 with 5 (ten buttons {if I remember correctly}). [Sekretarski Apparatus Complex, 2 urban telephone lines or 3 urban telephone lines]. That's all I can tell you for now.
    These Isostat former [are] connected to the telephone clevis button.
    They were also used in radios. And many other places.

    I need to know, e.g. 1z4i5 dependent and the rest I do not have to discover how the dependent ones connect what they are connected in a mechanical and electronic way
    I am not talking about the types but the essence of action and the teacher also told me something about a complex switch

    Added after 5 [minutes]:

    Closer mechanical and electrical coupling of exactly what and how it is connected together that causes disconnection or connection of several pipes

    Isostats can be freely configured depending on the needs. For example, to change the range of waves in the radio, dependent isostats were used, and because changing the range, e.g. for a short one, discarded the current setting, e.g. medium. The effect was that only one of the dependent teams could be attached. These types of switches were constructed differently than dependent ones. They had special cuts into which a long splint hit, which was finally pressed by a special springy plate.
    Independent isostats had a completely different structure. Each had its own elastic plate and a corresponding groove in which a special short rod with rounded ends was placed. Each time the switch was pressed, its status changed to reverse (on / off). The same type of isostats devoid of this plaque and rod became so-called momentary, i.e. they were buttons when necessary.

    For a specific example, I am posting a photo of isostat type switches with two dependent units and two buttons.
    What is it and how does isostat work?

    Looking at the picture, first there are two buttons (with visible stops), then two switches dependent on each other and then four switches dependent on each other. As you can see in the picture, the latter are even more spaced. In addition to what is also visible, isostats have different lengths but it is always a multiple of three pins.

    Springy plates in the right places.

    Ps. The round holes, which can be seen in the mounting rail of the individual switches, are used to mount the previously mentioned plates with rods to create independent switches. Of course, the middle elements are of a slightly different construction.

    Sorry that I am so inquisitive but explain to me how this strip with a particular switch works, or how it happens that if I press one it will pop out the other? This is a general question and does not refer to the photo you posted

    There is a strip with holes inside, through which individual isostats pass. Each isostat of this type has oblique notches on the side. As soon as such isostat is pressed, the aforementioned slat (rail) is pushed to the side, which always returns to its place, thanks to this elastic plate on the side. It's a kind of latch.

    Go to a good electronics store, some stock exchange or just order one or several isostats from Alle..oa you will be able to disassemble, examine, x-ray, combine and you will see how it is made. Hands fall - a paper to do and nothing of its own invention, but in fact everything is on Google ....

    The pawl, i.e. this inner rail, has a "tooth" which retracts when any isostat in the dependent unit is pressed.

    By the way, I found a single independent isostat here.

    Have more like this dependent Izostat.

    The difference between the independent and dependent slider is this.

    And a photo on which you can see the aforementioned rail for dependent isostats (left side at the top) and below, among others said rods (pins) and elastic plates for dependent isostats. Photo found on the net.

    Thank you very much for having sacrificed my time, of course I could have slaughtered the net but thanks to you I understood how it works. Thanks a lot

    I already know how its symbol might work, would it be useful to me?

    Just because the name is incorrect in the link does not mean we have to duplicate it. The correct name is Isostat and you should stick to it.

    Whereas with THIS . THIS dozens of others, and as well as the Unitra catalog shows that isostat :) actually according to the BN-77 / 3384-02 / 00 standard. Segment key switches :)

Topic summary

Isostats are types of switches used in various electronic devices, including landline telephones and radios. They can be categorized into dependent and independent types. Dependent isostats are mechanically coupled, meaning that pressing one switch can cause others to activate or deactivate, while independent isostats operate independently of each other. The construction of these switches varies; dependent isostats often feature special cuts and springy plates, while independent ones have elastic plates and rods that change their status upon activation. The discussion also highlights the mechanical and electrical coupling of isostats, explaining how pressing one switch can affect others in a dependent configuration. Visual aids and links to images of isostat types were shared to enhance understanding.
