Abstract:
A power switch device has a housing, a movable shuttle and at least one shape memory alloy actuator. The housing has a cavity and stationary current carrying contacts which extend through the housing to the cavity. The movable shuttle with a bridge contact provided in the cavity. The at least one shape memory alloy actuator is attached to a first end of the shuttle and to a first end of the housing. The at least one shape memory alloy actuator is configured to respond to a first activation signal. The at least one shape memory alloy actuator contracts from an initial shape in response to the first actuation signal to move the shuttle and the bridge contact toward the stationary current carrying contacts to a closed position in which the bridge contact is positioned in electrical engagement with the stationary current carrying contacts.

Claim (Index 1):
A power switch device comprising:\n a housing having a cavity, the housing having stationary current carrying contacts which extend through the housing to the cavity; a movable shuttle having a bridge contact provided in the cavity, the shuttle having a recess; a rail attached to a bottom wall of the housing, the rail being received in the recess of the shuttle to allow the shuttle to move in a direction which is parallel to a longitudinal axis of the rail; at least one shape memory alloy actuator attached to a first end of the shuttle and to a first end of the housing, the at least one shape memory alloy actuator configured to respond to a first activation signal; wherein the at least one shape memory alloy actuator contracts from an initial shape in response to the first actuation signal to move the shuttle and the bridge contact toward the stationary current carrying contacts to a closed position in which the bridge contact is positioned in electrical engagement with the stationary current carrying contacts.
