Abstract:
A current control device comprising:(a) two electrodes; (b) an electrically nonconductive isolator; (c) at least one pressure plate electrically nonconductive and movable; (d) at least one actuator, each said actuator attached at a first end to said pressure plate; (e) a band whereon is fixed said at least one actuator at a second end and slidable attached to said isolator, said band restricting movement of said actuator at said second end, said band communicating a mechanical load to said isolator when said actuator is extended; and (f) a pressure conduction composite, said pressure conduction composite and said isolator disposed between said electrodes, said pressure conduction composite contacting said electrodes, said isolator, and said at least one pressure plate.
