    摘要: The device 10 includes a liquid filled bellows activated battery composed of two non Miscible fluids 14, 15 flowing through a channel 13 containing two electrodes 16, 17 of different metals. One of the fluids 14 is an electrolyte while the second 15 one is electrically non conducting. At rest the two electrodes 16, 17 are in the non conductive fluid 15. When the electrical device is actuated, manually or by an external force, the fluids surrounding the electrodes 16, 17 are replaced by the electrolyte 14 thus generating an electrical voltage between the two electrodes. The electrical current can be used to temporarily generate light or supply energy to another device. When the actuation mechanism is released, the electrodes 16, 17 are surrounded by the non conductive fluids 15 again and the electrical current is stopped.

    摘要: A self-encoding key switch is formed of a body having a well for storing a pool of mercury, a plurality of contact chambers with encoding contacts therein and having channel portions communicating with the well of a size to resist flow of the mercury therethrough due to surface tension of the mercury, and a plunger movable into the well to force the mercury through the channel portions into the contact chambers to momentarily connect the encoding contacts thereby providing tactile feedback, self-encoding and N-key rollover. A keyboard system utilizes a plurality of the above-described self-encoding key switches along with a register, and a strobe contact is disposed in a contact chamber of each key switch such that the trailing edge of the signal from the strobe contact precedes the breaking of electrical connection between a supply contact in the body and the encoding contacts to trigger the register and enter coded data from the encoding contacts. A keyboard formed of a plurality of the above-described, self-encoding key switches is constructed with the bodies of each of the key switches formed of a single piece of plastic material mounted on a base member carrying electrical connectors forming the contacts in the key switches. In one embodiment, the electrical connectors are in the form of conductor bars extending through the base member which is integrally formed with the switch bodies as a single unit. In another embodiment, the base member has surface carried connectors in the manner of a printed circuit board.

    摘要: A self-encoding key switch is formed of a body having a well at the bottom thereof for storing a pool of mercury, a contact chamber for receiving the mercury from the well and a relief chamber for receiving the mercury from the contact chamber, and a plunger movable into the well to displace the mercury into the contact chamber to electrically connect a supply contact and a plurality of encoding contacts disposed in the contact chamber. The configurations of the body and the plunger cooperate to provide a path for the mercury to flow from the contact chamber to the relief chamber after momentary electrical connection of the supply and encoding contacts thereby providing N-key rollover. A keyboard system utilizes a plurality of the abovedescribed self-encoding key switches along with a register, and a strobe contact is disposed in the contact chamber of each key switch such that, after electrical connection is established between the supply and encoding contacts, the strobe contact is connected to trigger the register and enter the encoded data from the encoding contacts.
