ABSTRACT:
A shock and vibration sensitive switch is shown constructed from a toroidally shaped disc having a conductive outer periphery supported by sharp, film-penetrating contacts mounted in an insulated housing. The switch may be used in a security system which is energized by the shock and vibration accompanying an unauthorized entry to trigger an alarm. The insulated housing is wafer-shaped and mounts C-shaped contacts that permit the sensor to be unobtrusively mounted in either direction, which contributes to the security of the system.
