| 摘要 |
This invention is directed to a combined battery holder means and pressure-switch plate formed from a unitary piece of electrically non-conductive, thin, flexibly resilient flat sheet material such as, but not limited, to plastic-coated carstock of between, preferably, 1/2 mil to 5 mils in thickness. Each of the battery holder means and the integrally hinged pressure-switch plate carry aligned electrical contact elements or terminal means, said terminal means normally lying in spaced, non-conductive relationship (i.e., when no pressure is exerted thereon) but as the battery holder means and integrally hinged pressure-switch plate are moved relatively inward towards each other, under external manual pressure, the inherent flexibility of the hinged pressure plate is readily overcome and an electrical interconnection is made between the respective aligned terminal means of the battery holder and the integrally hinged pressure plate. Suitable wiring, or other electrically conductive means, e.g., metallic strips or the like, are provided, interconnecting a portably battery (placed in the battery holder), to the electrical or electromechanical unit to be energized in response to applied manual pressure on the switch plate. The unitary cardstock material may have additional tab elements integrally formed thereon which when folded along predetermined foldlines form an integral housing, support, or enclosure for an electrically energized motor or vibrator unit, for a light bulb or other electrically operated unit. |
