  • Patent number: 8569643
    Abstract: Generally described, one or more embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to switch assemblies and methods for switching from one state to another. In some examples, a switch assembly may switch from one electrical contact to another electrical contact by moving a conductive spring or member from a first conductive contact on a printed circuit board (PCB) to a second conductive contact on the PCB. For instance, in one embodiment, a conductive member moves within a slot in the PCB. In another embodiment, a compression force applied to a conductive spring is reduced while the conductive spring moves from a first conductive contact to a second conductive contact.
    Type: Grant
