Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9709706A1] The invention concerns a device designed for the visual indication of two statuses. The device includes a small motor fitted in a cylinder with its spindle fixed to the housing. When the motor is supplied with current from a high-resistance power supply, the cylinder is rotated against the action of a spring and a coloured zone is moved out into a position in which it is visible behind a window, this rotational motion being limited in each direction by stops. Alternatively, the stops may be designed as permanent magnets and the motor supplied with pulsed current.
