  • Thermal sensor
    Patent number: 9518872
    Abstract: A thermal sensor includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and a plurality of beads disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode, the beads defining bead cavities between each other. A method for manufacturing a thermal sensor includes disposing a plurality of beads on an inner electrode, dip coating the inner electrode with beads using a molten state changing material, and disposing an outer electrode over the inner electrode and beads after dip coating.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 14, 2014
    Date of Patent: December 13, 2016
    Assignee: Kidde Technologies, Inc.
    Inventors: Aaron S. Rogers, Chris G. Georgoulias, Scott K. Newlin
  • Pneumatic detector switch having a single diaphragm for alarm and fault conditions
    Patent number: 9418527
    Abstract: A pneumatic pressure detector switch is disclosed that includes a retainer assembly adapted to communicate with a source of pressure, a deformable diaphragm supported within the retainer assembly and movable in response to changes in pressure communicated to the retainer assembly, a fault contact element supported by the retainer assembly adjacent a first side surface of the diaphragm, and an alarm contact element supported by the retainer assembly adjacent a second side surface of the diaphragm.
