243 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR OPERATING A MICROMECHANICAL SWITCH | EP99966590.4 | 1999-12-21 | EP1149393B1 | 2003-02-19 | YOUNGNER, Daniel, W.; RIDLEY, Jeffrey, A. |
A micromechanical switch (20) and a method for operating the micromechanical switch between an open position and a closed position by moving a magnet (50) between two positions. The magnet produces a magnetic flux that travels through a magnetically conductive layer (30,40,207,209). The magnetic flux within the magnetically conductive layer forcibly draws a contact element (60) into contact with an electrically conductive layer (27,28,29,221,223) and electrically shorts the open electrical contacts. | ||||||
244 | SWITCH WITH MAGNETICALLY-COUPLED ARMATURE | EP98945854 | 1998-09-03 | EP1010189A4 | 2002-07-31 | VAN ZEELAND ANTHONY J |
A switch (10) has a carrier sheet (16) with electrodes formed on an internal side thereof to form switch contacts. An armature (18) is held in slidable contact with the internal side of the carrier (16). The magnet (30) is carried in a knob (22) mounted on the external surface of the carrier (16) for rotary, linear or complex motion. When a user manipulates the knob (22) the magnet (30) drags the armature (18) either into or out of shorting relation with the electrodes. A magnetic detent gear can be incorporated to provide tactile feedback. A pushbutton version of the switch can be made with a pivotable armature normally held spaced from electrodes on the substrate (12) by a magnet (30). A membrane (16) and spacer (14) may be added to protect and seal the electrodes and armature (18). | ||||||

An electrical switch (62) has a substrate (64) with at least one pair of spaced switch contacts (82, 84) arranged to be shorted by an electrically conductive armature (78). The armature (78) defines a central axis with first and second portion on either side of the axis which portions terminate at first and second edges. The armature (78) is normally held spaced from the contacts (82, 84) by magnetic attraction to a coupler layer (70) disposed in spaced relation to the substrate (64). The armature (78) is movable by an actuating force to engagement with the substrate (64). The armature (78) separates from the coupler layer (70) by a double pivoting motion. An actuating force applied to the armature (78) remote from its central axis causes one edge of the armature (78) nearest the actuating force to break away from the coupler layer (70). The armature (78) then pivots about the opposite edge of the armature (78) until the one edge bottoms on the substrate (64). This is followed by the opposite edge of the armature (78) breaking away from the coupler layer (70) and pivoting about the one edge until the opposite edge bottoms on the substrate (64). | ||||||

255 | Schalter für Kraftfahrzeuge | EP89119871.5 | 1989-10-26 | EP0380763A1 | 1990-08-08 | |
In Kraftfahrzeugen gibt es verschiedene Anwendungsbereiche für mechanisch betätigte Schalter, die gegenüber dem Eindringen von Gasen und Flüssigkeiten absolut dicht sein müssen. In aller Regel löst ein nicht zum eigentlichen Schalter gehörendes Auslöseteil die beabsichtigte Schaltfunktion über ein zum Schalter gehörendes Übertragungselement, wie einen Stößel, Stift, Hebel oder dergleichen aus. Hierdurch können sich insbesondere bei wesentlichen Temperatureinflüssen Abdichtungsschwierigkeiten ergeben, was in einfacher Weise dadurch vermieden werden kann, daß die beweglichen Teile des Schalters (1) und die Festkontakte (5) in einem allseitig geschlossenen Schaltergehäuse (2) hermetisch abgedichtet angeordnet sind, und daß der Kontaktträger (6) mit einem von der Außenseite des Schaltergehäuses (2) mittels des Auslöseteiles (11) durch Magnetkraft berührungsfrei betätigbaren Anker in Verbindung steht, der in seiner Ruhestellung von einer Druckfeder (10) beaufschlagt ist, die im Schaltergehäuse (2) zweckmäßig zwischen Anker (9) und Auslöseteil (11) angeordnet ist. So kann neben einer völlig verschleißfreien indirekten Betätigung des Schalters durch das Auslöseteil (11) auch eine zuverlässige Abdichtung aller beweglichen Schalterteile unter allen vorkommenden Betriebsbedingungen in besonders einfacher Weise erreicht werden. |
