This invention relates to electric switches and more particularly to switches operable to close an electric circuit when a device to which the switch is attached is subjected to an accelerating or decelerating force.
Accordingly there is provided a switch operable to close an electrical circuit when an accelerating or decelerating force is applied to a device to which the switch is attached, comprising a body, a slug movable within a cavity in said body and means for initially retaining said slug in the bottom oi the cavity so that application of said force causes the slug to move towards that portion of the body forming the top of the cavity to close said circuit.
l prefer to shape the side wall of the cavity and the slug so that the latter hinges about the side wall on application of said force.
So that the switch may be used 1n rotating dev1ces subjecting the switch to centrifugal forces, the slug `1s disc-shaped the means for initially retaining the slug inthe bottom of the cavity exerts a force which retains the slug on the bottom of the cavity Whilst allowing it to slide thereover to contact the side wall when the switch is subjected to centrifugal forces.
in order that the invention may be fully understood, preferred embodiments thereof will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
FlGURE l shows a sectional view of a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and y FGURE 2 shows a sectional view of a mcdiiication of the switch shown in FlGURE l.
in FIGURE l a switch Il has a body 2 comprising an electrically conductive annulus 3 having a cylindrical inside wall d held between an insulating ring 5 and an electrically conductive top plate d and a laminated plate 'i' comprising a space-r' ti, a magnet 9 and a backing plate ld. The spacer d, annulus 3 and top plate d, together form a closed cavityll` within the body 2 which contains a disc shaped electrically conductive slug l2. yThe slug l2 is initially retained on the bottom of the cavity lll formed by the spacer S by the magnetic force exerted by the magnet The diameter of the slug l2 is less than that of the inside diameter of the annulus 3. Secured to the plate d is an electrical contact wire i3, another contact wire ld being passed through and insulated iron the plate d to maire contact with the annulus 3. The ring 5 is also annular, its central aperture l5 being co-axial with the cylindrical inside wall l of the yannulus El. The upper and lower edges le and i7 respectively of the slug l2 are bevelled to provide an edge l which contacts the cylindrical inside wall l of the annulus 3 to provide a hinge point for the slug l2 as will be described in detail hereinafter.
The switch has been designed with such applications in mind as impact switches for artillery shells where high decelerating forces are encountered but it will be appreciated that such a switch may also be used in application where it is desired to close an electrical circuit when the device to which it is attached is subjected to accelerating or decelerating forces.
To take the example of an artillery shell which is subjected to spin by the riding of the gun barrel from which it is fired, the slug l2 will iirst be thrown against the side wall of the annulus 3 by the centrifugal force acting on the switch which is mounted at right angles to vquerlce bear the same reference numerals.
.il i 7,3 l2 Patented Apr. 6, llll the axis of the shell. The decelerating force experienced by the switch when the shell hits an object overcomes the force of the magnet 9 holding the slug l2 on the bottom of the cavity ll, to hinge the slug l2 about the edge 18 in contact with the side wall 4 ol the annulus 3 to take up a position in which the left hand side of the slug l2 is in Contact with the top plate d completing an electrical circuit through wire 13, top plate d, the slug l2, annulus 3 and wire i4.
The force exerted by the magnet 9 on the slug l2 may be varied by altering the thickness of the spacer ti so that the switch may be adjusted to operate in conditions in which only small decelerating forces are experienced.
FGURE 2 shows a switch Il@ having parts which are the same as those shown in FIGURE l, and in conseln FlGURE l, the slug l2 is retained in the bottom of the cavity lil by means of the magnet 9 `but in FGURE 2, a slug 3l is retained in the bottom of the cavity ll by means of a spring 32 clamped between the insulating ring 5 and annulus 3 from which the spring is electrically insulated. The spring may be a disc or a strip. The slug 3l is similar to slug l2 shown in FIGURE l but the top portion 33 of slug 3l is domed.
The operation oi the switch Pit? is the same as that of the switch l shown in FGURE l described earlier in this specification with the exception that the decelerating force experienced by the switch when the shell in which the switch is mounted hits object, causes the slug 3l to hinge about the edge l, the domed portion 33 deorrning the spring 32 to contact the top plate 6 and thus close the electr-ical circuit connected to wires i3 and le. To vary the value of the minimum decelerating force at which the switch will operate to close an electrical circuit, different springs may be used to provide different restrain ing forces on the slug 3l.
.electrically conductive material they may also be made of insulating material with metallic contacts or a layer of conductive material secured to the face of the top plate d forming the top of the cavity ll and the inside wall 4 of the annulus 3. j
The switch as shown in FlGURES l and 2 may be preencapsulated to precise dimensions in an epoxy injection mould tool, it then being suitable for putting into a nal assembly.
