TACTILE RESPONSE SWITCH WITH UNITARY CONTROL STRIP OF INDEPENDENTLY OPERABLY PLURAL DISC CONTACTS

摘要

A tactile response switch comprises a unitary cantilever-snap disc mechanism in which the cantilever provides reliable electrical contact properties and the snap disc provides a tactile response to contact closure. A plurality of independent contact closures can be made by operation of a single contact button and the properties of the cantilever and the snap disc can be easily tailored to achieve a desired sequence of contact closures and desired switch operating characteristics.
