  2. 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.

  3. 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 ...

  4. 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.

  5. Solenoid valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_valve

    Solenoid valves. A solenoid valve is an electromechanically operated valve.. Solenoid valves differ in the characteristics of the electric current they use, the strength of the magnetic field they generate, the mechanism they use to regulate the fluid, and the type and characteristics of fluid they control.

    Mechanical actuators are also frequently used in the field of lasers and optics to manipulate the position of linear stages, rotary stages, mirror mounts, goniometers and other positioning instruments. For accurate and repeatable positioning, index marks may be used on control knobs. Some actuators include an encoder and digital position readout.
