    摘要: A switch includes a shuttle having an elongated length resiliently supported at opposing ends thereof and configured to move along a motion axis in response to an applied voltage. A shuttle switch portion includes a plurality of shuttle contact fingers extending transversely from opposing sides of the shuttle. A common contact at a common terminal side of the shuttle includes a plurality of contact fingers respectively interdigitated with the shuttle contact fingers. First and second terminal contacts are adjacent a switched terminal side of the shuttle, and include first terminal contact fingers and second terminal contact fingers respectively interdigitated with shuttle contact fingers. The shuttle switch portion is configured to selectively connect the common contact to the first terminal contact or the second terminal contact.

    摘要: A miniaturized electro-mechanical switch includes a moveable portion having a contact configured to make, when the switch is actuated, an electrical connection between two stationary points. At least the contact is composed of a fully silicided material. A structure includes a silicon layer formed over an insulator layer and a micromechanical switch formed at least partially within the silicon layer. The micromechanical switch has a conductive structure, and where at least electrically contacting portions of the conductive structure are comprised of fully silicided material.

    摘要: An acceleration switch has a mass body having a space inside, and a counter electrode provided in the space of the mass body. An arc-shaped beam surrounds and supports the mass body. The acceleration sensitivity threshold of the acceleration switch is determined by a cut portion in the mass body or by the area of the top surface of the mass body. In this manner, a plurality of acceleration switches each having a single acceleration sensitivity threshold, for example, in steps of 0.2 G, can be prepared.

    摘要: Embodiments of switches (10) include first and second electrical conductors (34, 36) suspended within an electrically-conductive housing (28), and a contact element (16) having an electrically-conductive portion (53b) that establishes electrical contact between the first and second electrical conductors (34, 36) when the contact element (16) is in a closed position. The electrically-conductive portion (53b) is electrically isolated from a ground plane (27) of the switch (10) by adjacent electrically-insulative portions (53a, 53c) of the contact element (16).

    摘要: Embodiments of a multi-stage spring system are provided herein. In some embodiments, a multi-stage spring system includes a spring assembly having at least one resilient element, wherein the spring assembly has a first spring constant when deflected up to a first distance, a greater, second spring constant when deflected beyond the first distance and up to a second distance, and a greater, third spring constant when deflected beyond the second distance and up to a third distance, and wherein the spring assembly stores mechanical energy when deflected towards a contact surface that biases the spring assembly away from the contact surface when released.
