PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To stabilize the output of a capacitance sensor by reducing the dispersion of the output.
SOLUTION: This capacitance sensor 25 is constituted so as to change the output by the change in capacitance of a conductive rubber 24 by pressing electrodes 3, 3, and 4 covered with a resist 5 by the conductive rubber 24 to change the capacitance of the conductive rubber 24. The sectional area orthogonal to the pressing direction of the conductive rubber 24 is minimized in a pressure contact surface 24a.

PURPOSE: To dispense with a space for holding a key top switch and miniaturize a key input device by boring a hole in the upper surface of a receiving body for receiving a printed board, catching a key top into this hole to project its upper part from the hole, and energizing the key top in the projecting direction by an elastic member provided on the printed board.
CONSTITUTION: A printed board 2 having a plurality of electronic parts 3 for input operation to a body not shown on the lower surface and a plurality of printed electrodes 6 on the upper surface is received in a receiving body 1. A hole 18 slightly larger than the diameter of a key top 4 to be inserted thereto is bored in one wall of the receiving body 1. At the beginning of assembling, the key top 4 having a wide engaging part 15 on the lower surface is inserted into the hole from the lower surface, and the upper surface of the key top 4 is projected while preventing the pass through of the key top 4 by the engaging part 15. Thereafter, the center part lower surface of a contact electrode 7 for the electrode 6 provided on the lower surface of the engaging part 16 is pushed up by a leaf spring 5 mounted on the board 2 to ordinarily bring the electrodes 6, 7 into cut state.

PURPOSE: To provide an uncostly push button switch with uniform electric characteristics by applying a pressure sensitive paste as a pressure sensing resistant body to the surface facing an electric pattern with a certain space between, and mounting this conductive on an insulative push button.
CONSTITUTION: An insulative push button 2 is fitted with a conductive plate 3, in which a pressure sensitive paste as a pressure sensing resistant body is applied to the surface facing an electrode pattern 14 with a space d between, which range 0.3 thru 0.4mm. That is, pressure sensitive conductive paste as pressure sensing resistant body 1 is applied to a conductive rubber sheet 3a as a conductive plate 3, followed by drying and solidification. The this conductive rubber sheet 3a to which the pressure sensing resistant body 1 is applied is punched into specified size and shape by a press machine 13, and the punched conductive plate 3 is located on the pushing surface 5 of the push button 2 of insulative rubber, followed by consolidation in a die through heating and vulcanization. This simplifies molding process, suppresses the costs, and provides products with uniform electric characteristics.

A circuit interrupter having at least two sets of contacts that are electrically connected in series such that when the at least two sets of contacts are opened, they are opened simultaneously. This functions to increase the distance between the sets of contacts as the distance is additive for the series connected sets of contacts, which increases the arc voltage for breaking any arc that may form between the individual sets of contacts more effectively. |

A spring piece is formed integrally as part of a drive arm that presses an operational body. The spring piece is disposed between a pressing part at which the drive arm presses the operational body and a linkage part that acts a swinging fulcrum. A contact part between the spring piece and a case is positioned closer to the linkage part than the bend bottom end is. When the drive arm swings from an initial orientation to a completely swung orientation, the spring piece can generate an elastic return force. The elastic return force does not largely increase even when the drive arm swings. |
