Abstract: A microsystem switch (1, 20, 25, 30, 33) has a support (2) defining a recess (3), and a flexible bridge (6) is mounted on the support (2) bridging the recess (3). The bridge (6) is shaped so as to hold selectively a concave support stable state, in which the bridge bulges out of the recess (3). The switch includes an actuator (8, 9; 26, 27) for effecting flexing of the bridge (6) between the stable states, and a switching element (7, 31, 34) is mounted on the bridge (6) such that movement of the bridge between the stable states moves the switching element between an on position and an off position. According to another design, a microsystem switch (40, 55) has a support (41) defining a recess (42), and an elongate torsion member (44) is mounted on the support (41) bridging the recess (42). A flexible bridge (43, 56) is mounted on the support (41) bridging the recess (42) in a direction substantially perpendicular to the torsion member (44). The bridge (43, 56) is connected to the torsion member (44) at the cross-point thereof so that a first section of the bridge extends between the cross-point and one side of the recess (42) and a second section of the bridge extends between the cross-point and the opposite side of the recess (42). The bridge (43, 56) is shaped so as to hold selectively a first stable state, in which the first section of the bridge bulges into the recess and the second section of the bridge bulges out of the recess, and a second stable state in which this configuration is reversed. A switching element (45) is mounted at the cross-point of the bridge (43, 56) and torsion member (44), and an actuator (46a, 46b; 58a, 58b) is again provided for effecting flexing of the bridge (43, 56) between the stable states. Here, movement of the bridge (43, 56) between the stable states effects twisting of the torsion member (44) and rotation of the switching element (45) between an on position and an off position. Switching devices incorporating these switches, and switching apparatus comprising arrays of such switching devices, are also provided.
Abstract translation: 微系统开关(1,20,25,30,33)具有限定凹部(3)的支撑件(2),并且柔性桥(6)安装在桥接凹部(3)的支撑件(2)上。 桥(6)成形为能够选择性地保持凹形支撑件稳定状态,其中桥从凸出部(3)突出。 所述开关包括用于在所述稳定状态之间实现所述桥梁(6)的弯曲的致动器(8,9; 26,27),并且将开关元件(7,31,34)安装在所述桥架(6)上, 在稳定状态之间的桥接器之间的开关元件在接通位置和关闭位置之间移动。 根据另一种设计,微系统开关(40,55)具有限定凹部(42)的支撑件(41),并且细长扭转构件(44)安装在桥接凹部(42)的支撑件(41)上。 柔性桥(43,46)安装在基本上垂直于扭转构件(44)的方向上桥接凹部(42)的支撑件(41)上。 桥(43,46)在其交叉点处连接到扭转构件(44),使得桥的第一部分在凹部(42)的交叉点和一侧之间延伸,并且第二部分 该桥在凹口(42)的交叉点和相对侧之间延伸。 桥(43,56)成形为能够选择性地保持第一稳定状态,其中桥的第一部分凸起到凹部中,并且桥的第二部分从凹部膨胀出来,并且第二稳定状态在 这个配置是相反的。 开关元件(45)安装在桥(43,56)和扭转构件(44)的交叉点处,并且再次提供致动器(46a,46b; 58a,58b)以实现桥的弯曲 43,56)之间的稳定状态。 这里,桥梁(43,46)在稳定状态之间的移动使得扭转构件(44)扭转和开关元件(45)的旋转在接通位置和关闭位置之间。 还提供了包括这些开关的开关装置和包括这种开关装置的阵列的开关装置。
