摘要： The contact sensor includes a conductive fabric, an insulative spacer having multiple openings, and a conductive sheet of a sheet-shaped conductor. The insulative spacer is interposed between the conductive fabric and the conductive sheet. Upon contact of a soft object such as a human body portion on the conductive fabric with force equal to or greater than a certain strength, the insulative spacer sinks in the soft object with the conductive fabric interposed therebetween. The conductive fabric is deformable in conformity with insulative pieces of the insulative spacer, such that touching of a portion of the conductive fabric on the conductive sheet provides detection of contact of the soft object.

摘要： A keyboard module includes a pressing layer, a switch circuit board, a base plate and plural glue dots. The pressing layer includes plural key parts. The switch circuit board includes plural first wiring patterns, plural second wiring patterns and plural spacing dots. The plural glue dots are disposed on a lower wiring plate of the switch circuit board. The plural glue dots and the plural spacing dots are staggered. Due to the plural glue dot, the non-bonding zones of the lower wiring plate without the glue dots are bendable. When the key part is pressed, the lower wiring plate corresponding to the pressed key part is bent. Consequently, the first wiring pattern is inserted into the region between the corresponding spacing dots and contacted with the corresponding second wiring pattern.

摘要： In a mechanically operated keyboard employing keys each having a multiplicity of electrical switch contacts for providing an encoded electrical signal output corresponding to and uniquely identifying individual key stations, an electrical circuit provides a dummy load across the multiple switch contacts which varies as different keys are actuated in a manner to provide a constant load across the multiple switch contacts. The electrical circuit develops a control signal which can be employed in conjunction with associated circuits to inhibit erroneous data output signals from the keyboard in the event of improper switch closure.

摘要： A matrix switch comprises an orthagonal arrangement of two sets of parallel conductors spaced from one another by a plurality of resilient elements. Preferably, the switch is made by securing together two one-sided flat conductor cables, each of which comprises a plurality of alternating, parallel conductors and elastomeric elements, with the heights of said elastomeric elements being greater than the heights of said conductors. Each cross-over point of the spaced conductors forms a switch point which is activated upon depression of the upper conductor into contact with the lower conductor. The orthogonally disposed flat conductor cables are held in a suitable housing including printed circuit board pads to which the conductors are connected, thereby facilitating simultaneous connection of the conductors to conventional multi-pin printed circuit board connectors for connection to the electronics used in conjunction with the matrix switch.

摘要： A location sensitive touch panel for use on a rigid substrate. The substrate carries a first set of conductive strips. A resilient plastic membrane overlaying it carries a second set of conductive strips orthogonal to and spaced from the first set. Finger pressure can cause electrical contact between any one of the first set of strips and any one of the second set of strips. The substrate may be either flat or curved, with the membrane conforming to its contour.

摘要： In a matrix of switches disposed in rows and columns, a plurality of first discrete conductors are deposited on the surface of a first backing member to extend in a first direction and a plurality of second discrete conductors are deposited on the surface of a second backing member to extend in a second direction. Dielectric spacing means is disposed between the first and second backing members to maintain the first and second conductors in a normally spaced relationship. The spacing means defines a plurality of openings each extending between an associated pair of the first and second conductors which define one of the switches. By pressing the associated pair of conductors into relative engagement through the associated opening in the spacing means, a signal on the associated first conductor is switched to the associated second conductor. The second conductors can extend through a pair of the switches and can be bisected therebetween to increase the number of discrete switches in the matrix without increasing the number of conductors. A bar clamp provides an interface between the switches in the matrix and the electronics associated with the controlled operations. A method for making the matrix of switches includes the steps of providing a spool for each of the backing members, the conductors, and the spacing means, and guiding the conductors and the spacing means in a spaced relationship onto the backing member. This process can be performed at high speed with inexpensive materials to significantly reduce the cost of manufacturing the matrix of switches.

摘要： A device for automatically producing a numerical representation of the location of any elemental area on a working surface, which device includes a matrix defining the working surface and composed of two mutually transverse sets of parallel conductive elements, the elements of one set being elastically deformable and the two sets being disposed parallel to one another and spaced apart by a small distance which permits any elastically deformable element of the one set to contact an element of the other set when subjected to a deforming pressure, the device further including a pulse generator for applying signal pulses to both sets of elements in such a manner that a pulse is present on only one set of elements at any given instant, and logic circuits each having one input connected to a respective element of one set, another input connected to a respective element of the other set, and an output at which a signal appears only when a pulse is applied to both of the elements to which its inputs are connected, this occurring when a pulse is applied to the elements of one set and one of the elements of the one set contacts one element of the other set.
