  • Electrical switch and circuitry for appliance
    Patent number: 4829390
    Abstract: A safety device for disconnecting an electrical appliance from a power supply, and thereby preventing electrical shock hazards. A normally closed switch connects the appliance to the power supply. A frangible device, such as a flash bulb, maintains the switch in the closed position. A sensor detects a dangerous condition and actuates the flash bulb, which action fragments the envelope of the bulb, whereupon the switch assumes the open position, thereby disconnecting the appliance from the power supply.
