  2. Push switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Push_switch

    A push switch (button) is a momentary or non-latching switch which causes a temporary change in the state of an electrical circuit only while the switch is physically actuated. An automatic mechanism (i.e. a spring ) returns the switch to its default position immediately afterwards, restoring the initial circuit condition.

  3. AS-Interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AS-interface

    Actuator Sensor Interface (AS-Interface or ASi) is an industrial networking solution (Physical Layer, Data access Method and Protocol) used in PLC, DCS and PC-based automation systems. It is designed for connecting simple field I/O devices (e.g. binary ON/OFF devices such as actuators, sensors, rotary encoders, analog inputs and outputs, push ...

  4. Miniature snap-action switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miniature_snap-action_switch

    As the flat spring moves downward the upward force of the curved spring reduces causing the motion to accelerate even in the absence of further movement of the actuator until the flat spring impacts the normally-open contact. Even though the flat spring unflexes as it moves downward, the switch is designed so the net effect is acceleration.

  5. Push-button - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Push-button

    A push-button (also spelled pushbutton) or simply button is a simple switch mechanism to control some aspect of a machine or a process. Buttons are typically made out of hard material, usually plastic or metal. [1] The surface is usually flat or shaped to accommodate the human finger or hand, so as to be easily depressed or pushed.

  6. Pogo pin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pogo_pin

    Variety of loose pogo pins and pogo pins in 3-pin assembly holders and with Pick and Place caps Sectional drawing of a pogo pin, showing the plunger, barrel, and spring. A pogo pin or spring-loaded pin is a type of electrical connector mechanism with spring plungers that is used in many modern electronic applications and in the electronics testing industry. [1]

  7. Valve actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_actuator

    If there is a spring inside of the actuator, it will force the valve open or closed and will keep it in that position while power is restored. An actuator may be specified "fail open" or "fail close" to describe its behavior. In the case of an electric actuator, losing power will keep the valve stationary unless there is a backup power supply.

  8. Electrohydraulic servo valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrohydraulic_servo_valve

    The electrohydraulic servo valve first appeared in World War II.The EHSVs in use during the 1940s were characterized by poor accuracy and slow response times due to the inability to rapidly convert electrical signals into hydraulic flows.
