These are from the 4.5V Technic Control system, used with early computers.
Here's a page describing those pieces:

and a folder with some other images:

The system was used mostly in schools during the late 1980's onward. It was
replaced by the 9V Technic Control system in the 90's. The main software used
was called logo (an early graphic interface to send movement commands to
external outputs - no direct relation to LEGO). Many people know the combined
system as TC-logo (Technic Control - logo), since Lego Dacta sold a special
version of logo software (which allowed inputs) specifically for the LEGO TC
system.
