拍叉簧 拍"叉簧"是什么意思?
  话机上听筒放下去的位置上有一个凸出的方块按钮,称之为叉簧。一直按下去就是挂机,拿起听
筒,叉簧凸出称为提机,用手拍一下称为"拍叉簧"。

Hook Switch ~ "the switch which loops (busy) and un-loops (idle) the telephone from the line"

A telephone hook or switchhook is the cradle where a telephone handset resides. It takes its name
from old wooden wall telephones and candlestick telephones, where the mouthpiece to be mounted
on the telephone box and, due to sidetone considerations, the receiver was separate, on a cable.
When the telephone was not in use, the receiver was hung on a spring-loaded hook; its weight
would cause the hook to swing down and open an electrical contact, disconnecting the telephone
from the line. When the handset is on the cradle, the telephone is said to be "on-hook", or ready
for a call. When the handset is off the cradle, the telephone is said to be "off-hook", or unable to
receive any (further) calls.
