  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. Spring Boot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_Boot

    A major advantage of using the Spring Boot Actuator is that it implements a number of production-ready features without requiring the developer to construct their own implementations. [18] If Maven is used as the build tool, then the spring-boot-starter-actuator dependency can be specified in the pom.xml configuration file. [19]

  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. 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.

  6. 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.

  9. Solenoid (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_(engineering)

    A spring or other means is required to move the plunger to its de-energized position. Other constructions utilize a C- or D-shaped frame of bent flat steel and the coil may be visible. The efficiency of these types are due to their steel outer frames which enclose the magnetic flux around the coil (end to end) to focus the flux at the air gap ...
