Description

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a dimmer switch showing our new design;
FIG. 2 is a front elevational view thereof;
FIG. 3 is a rear elevational view thereof;
FIG. 4 is a left side elevational view thereof;
FIG. 5 is a right side elevational view thereof;
FIG. 6 is a top plan view thereof;
FIG. 7 is a bottom plan view thereof;
FIG. 8 is a perspective view of a second embodiment of the design of FIG. 1, the only diffence being the elimination of the airgap switch actuator at the bottom of the actuator mounting frame;
FIG. 9 is a front elevational view of the second embodiment shown in FIG. 8; and,
FIG. 10 is a bottom plan view thereof, the remaining views of the second embodiment being identical to those of the first embodiment of FIG. 1.
The broken line showing of the environment is for illustrative purpose only and forms no part of the claimed design.
