ABSTRACT:
Motor vehicle windows are commonly made of a tempered glass which shatters over its entire area whenever any part of the window is broken. Further, such windows are generally supported at the bottom edge by a channel which extends only part way along the glass leaving an unsupported part of the glass. A switch in the vehicle door is arranged to be held open by the glass and to exert a force against the glass so that if it becomes shattered, the switch force pushes the glass out of the way allowing switch closure. The entire switch is secured to the unsupported edge of the glass or alternatively the switch is mounted on the door panel and only an actuator is secured to the glass.
