A sensor driving device includes a first substrate; a second substrate disposed on the first substrate; and an image sensor. The second substrate includes a body having first and second lateral surfaces; a first protrusion part protruding from the first lateral surface; and a second protrusion part protruding from the second lateral surface. The first protrusion part includes a first extension part, and a second extension part extending in a direction different from the first extension part. The second protrusion part includes a first extension part, and a second extension part extending in a direction different from the first extension part. The first extension parts are disposed parallel to an optical axis of the image sensor. The second extension part of the first protrusion part is closer to the second extension part of the second protrusion part than to the first extension part of the second protrusion part.

A spring assembly for biasing an armature of a switching device includes a spring base and a spring arm protruding from the spring base. The spring base has an embossment positioning the spring assembly in the switching device. The spring arm biases the armature.

A brake, a method for judging its state, a traction machine, and an elevator system. The traction machine and the elevator system include the brake. The brake includes a moving plate, and a fixed element having a fixed position relative to a base of the brake, and the brake further includes a first solenoid coil and a first ferromagnetic body; the first solenoid coil is disposed on one of the moving plate and the fixed element, the first ferromagnetic body is disposed on the other of the moving plate and the fixed element, a relative position of the first solenoid coil and the first ferromagnetic body is set such that the inductance of the first solenoid coil can change with the distance between the moving plate and the fixed element.

Provided is a method of providing information from a first device to a second device. The method includes: receiving message information by the second device, the message information comprising a text, a geometric figure, or a symbol that is input into the first device; transforming the message information into a tactile signal; and actuating an operator to provide tactile information according to the tactile signal. The operator includes at least one cell and provides the tactile information in the form of handwriting or vibration to a user of the second device, by operating the at least one cell sequentially. The operator provides the tactile information by sequentially or simultaneously applying/removing an external electric field to/from each of the cells according to the tactile signal. The operator includes at least one tactile sensation provider, that contacts the user of the second device, including polarizable or piezoelectric particles distributed in a matrix.

A coil assembly for vehicle braking includes a hollow bobbin configured to allow a coil to be wound along an outer circumferential surface thereof, and having at least one engagement protrusion formed on an upper surface and/or a lower surface, a plurality of lead pins coupled with the bobbin to supply current to the coil, a plurality of pin assembly units formed on two side ends of the bobbin to fix the lead pins and connect the lead pins to the coil and a hollow case configured to surround at least a portion of the bobbin, and formed to be bent in the upper and lower portions in a first direction to be attached to the upper and lower surfaces of the bobbin.

An actuator comprises a support body including a coil having a winding part and a lead part, a coil holder and a board supported by the coil holder, a movable body having a magnet, and a magnetic drive mechanism structured to relatively move the support body and the movable body. The coil holder has a coil holding part holding the winding part and a board support part supporting the board. A board surface of the board is provided with a land with which the lead part is connected. The board support part has a recessed part at a position overlapping with the board when viewed in a direction along the board surface, and the lead part is extended from the winding part to the land via the recessed part and is provided with a resiliently bent portion which is resiliently bent in an inside of the recessed part.
