    Abstract: A valve structure having a top part, a flexible media conveyance, such as a tube, a diaphragm and a bottom part with a support for the tube. The top surface of the diaphragm and the bottom surface of the top part may have electrodes attached. When there is no electric potential applied across the electrodes, the diaphragm may rest on and close the passageway in the flexible tube for effectively preventing a fluid flow. When an electrical potential is applied to the electrodes, the diaphragm may be pulled up off from the tube thereby opening or partially opening the passageway in the tube for a media flow or pressure transfer. Partial opening may be for modulation purposes. There may be a tension mechanism attached to the diaphragm. A controller may apply an electrical potential to the electrodes for at least partially opening or closing the valve.

    Abstract: A device for sensing pressure using two flexible diaphragms in which an additional element is added to promote rolling contact of the diaphragm. One embodiment aligns the flexible diaphragms in a non-parallel alignment such that deflection of one flexible diaphragm will roll with respect to the other to provide increased linear capacitive response. In another embodiment a non-conductive spacing element is positioned between the diaphragms to permit rolling contact upon displacement of a diaphragms. These devices are capacitive pressure gauges. One additional embodiment includes a cantilever hinge and rigid polymer disc to convert one diaphragm into a linearly deflecting diaphragm.
