Abstract:
A compression activated switch includes an electrically conductive contact layer pair formed of a conductive first contact layer for electrically connecting to a power source, and a conductive second contact layer spaced from the first contact layer for connecting to an application, and a resilient layer sandwiched between said first and second contact layers and having at least one resilient layer port; so that weight placed on the switch compresses the resilient layer and thereby advances said first contact layer toward said second contact layer until the first and second contact layers make electrically conductive contact through the at least one resilient layer port, closing the switch. A switch assembly includes multiple compression activated switches arrayed either horizontally or vertically and separated by insulating structures.

Claim (Index 17):
A compression activated switch assembly, comprising:\n at least two compression activated switches, each said switch comprising an electrically conductive contact layer pair formed of a conductive first contact layer for electrically connecting to a power source, and a conductive second contact layer spaced from said first contact layer for connecting to an application, and a resilient layer sandwiched between said first and second contact layers and having at least one foam layer port; such that weight placed on the switch assembly compresses each resilient layer and thereby advances a first contact layer of each contact layer pair toward a corresponding second contact layer of each contact layer pair until said first and second contact layers all make electrically conductive contact through the at least one resilient layer port of the resilient layer of the contact layer pair, closing all of said switches in the switch assembly and thereby delivering electric current from at least one power source to multiple applications connected to corresponding said switches; wherein a first contact layer level is defined by a generally horizontal series of electrically separate said first contact layer segments, and a second contact layer level below and spaced vertically apart from said first contact layer level is defined by a generally horizontal series of electrically separate said second contact layer segments, such that each first contact layer segment corresponds to and vertically registers with an opposing second contact layer segment, and wherein said horizontal series of opposing said first contact layer segments and said second contact layer segments are separated by the common resilient layer such that each registering pair of opposing said contact layers defines a single contact layer pair and they collectively define a horizontal series of contact layer pairs, and said resilient layer comprises at least one resilient layer port for and registering with each respective pair of first and second contact layer segments.
