Abstract: A relay (1) includes a motor (20) and a primary electrical switch assembly (132). Primary electrical switching attachment points (113) are switched by a moveable switching link (101) which is moved in and out of the switch on an switched off position axially by the motor (20) in response to electrical signals delivered to the coil (26) via the flexible leads (32, 33). The switching link (101) includes a mercury reservoir (119). A piezoelectric disk bender (105) displaces mercury to close the gaps between the attachment points (113).

Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide a low travel switch mechanism. The low travel switch mechanism may include a substrate, a dome coupled to the substrate, a keycap, and an integrated pivot component disposed between the keycap and the dome. The integrated pivot component may include a hinge assembly coupled to a light guide structure. The hinge assembly may secure to the substrate, via one or more hinge interconnects, joints, or interlock features to form a pivot point. When the keycap receives a keystroke, the integrated pivot component may be operative to pivot about the pivot point and contact the dome to cause a switching event or operation.

Abstract: The invention relates to a mechanical separating unit 1 for interrupting a line. The separating unit 1 comprises a contact arrangement and an electromagnetic drive means 5, 6. The contact arrangement has a first and a second fixed contact 2, 3 and a guided moving contact 4. The electromagnetic drive means 5, 6 is designed to move the moving contact 4. The separating unit 1 can assume a first and a second state, wherein no electric connection exists between the first and the second fixed contact 2, 3 in the first state, and the moving contact 4 electrically connects the two fixed contacts 2, 3 to each other in the second state. The separating unit 1 can be transferred from the second state into the first state by moving the moving contact 4. The invention is characterized in that the second fixed contact 3 has a recess 31 for receiving the moving contact 4, and the moving contact 4 engages at least partly into the recess 31 when the separating unit 1 is in the first state.

Abstract: An assembly is provided for providing capacitive sensing to a push button. The assembly comprises a printed circuit board (120) having a component side (120C) and a button side (120B). The component side comprises a conductive layer for surface mounting of electronic components, while the button side comprises a push detection element (140) for use in push detection of the push button (040). A sensor controller is mounted on the component side. A capacitive sensor comprises a conductive plate (160) having at least two connectors protruding and angling away from the conductive plate. The printed circuit board (120) comprises at least two through-holes (122, 124). The conductive plate (160) is arranged on the button side (120B), with the at least two connectors extending through respective ones of the at least two through-holes to the component side (120C) for establishing an electrical connection to the sensor controller. This assembly enables capacitive sensing without needing a conductive layer on the button side. Advantageously, a double-sided PCB is not needed. Rather, a single-sided PCB suffices.
