Abstract
A self-adjusting interlock actuator assembly for a hinged cover is composed of a cover hinge attaching the cover to the apparatus and a pivoting switch actuator. A spring means connects the cover hinge to the pivoting switch actuator. The spring means is arranged such that the pivoting switch actuator is driven by the cover hinge via the spring means to actuate the interlock switch when the cover is closed. In this way, rotating the cover hinge about the hinge axis causes the pivoting switch actuator to rotate about its pivot axis, thereby causing the pivoting switch actuator to actuate the interlock switch.
