Abstract: A pressure sensor comprises a sensor diaphragm which on one of its surfaces can be acted upon by the fluid pressure to be defected. The sensor diaphragm is rigidly supported at its opposite surface. It is made of an elastomeric material of an electrically non-conducting material wherein fine particles of electrically conducting material are homogenously embedded and distributed in such a density that a compression of the sensor diaphragm caused by the fluid pressure results in a measurable change in its electrical resistivity.

Abstract: A switch includes a deflectable inertial mass that responds to acceleration. The inertial mass is for activating a switching system. The inertial mass is suspended on two parallel, elastically deflectable support arms having a first, firmly anchored end and a second, movable end to which the inertial mass is attached.
