Positional touch sensor with force measurement
A touch screen display sensor is provided that includes a transparent touch-sensing element disposed upon the surface of a transparent substrate and a force-sensing element disposed within the transparent touch-sensing element. The force-sensing element includes two sets of bands of micromesh and can include a pressure-responsive material between the bands of micromesh. The bands of micromesh include traces of a metallic conductor. The sets of bands of micromesh are spaced apart and occupy substantially parallel planes.

Method of fabricating a relay
The present invention relates to a relay for an electric vehicle and a method of manufacturing the same, and more particularly, a relay for an electric vehicle where a permanent magnet is integrally formed with a housing formed of a ceramic chamber, and a method of manufacturing the same. The relay, capable of rapidly executing current interruption includes: a fixed contact; a movable contact formed to contact or to be separated from the fixed contact; a shaft connected to the movable contact, and configured to move the movable contact; a housing configured to accommodate therein the fixed contact and the movable contact; an actuator configured to drive the shaft; and a permanent magnet integrally formed with the housing, and configured to extend an arc generated between the fixed contact and the movable contact. The permanent magnet includes an alnico-based material or a neodymium-based material.
Method of manufacturing a switch
A switch includes a case, fixed electrodes, a movable electrode and a pressing member. The fixed electrodes and the movable electrode are arranged inside the recess. The pressing member is arranged so as to cover at least a part of the recess, and displaces the movable electrode from the second position to the first position by a pressing force from the outside. The pressing member includes a first bent part and a second bent part, and a deforming part disposed therebetween. The deforming part is opposed to the movable electrode with a gap in a state where the movable electrode is in the second position. The deforming part is configured to be flexibly deformed toward the outside of the case in a state where the movable electrode is in the first position in which the fixed electrodes are in a conductive state.
Method of using barrier walls in electrical power transmission systems
A method of protecting an exposed switch mounted on a structural frame in an electrical power transmission system, the switch having one or more insulators extended from the structural frame, first and second conductor connectors supported on the one or more insulators, and a blade connected to pivot to close and open an electrical path between the first and second conductor connectors, the method including mounting a barrier wall adjacent the switch and on the structural frame.
