Abstract:
Disclosed herein are contactor devices, for example, devices that can be utilized as switching elements, comprising fixed contacts that are electrically isolated from one another and one or more moveable contacts that are configured to electrically contact the fixed contacts to provide an electrical connection between them. Movement of the fixed contacts into and out of electrical contact with the fixed contacts controls flow of electricity through the devices. The contactor devices also include pyrotechnic disconnect elements, which function as a circuit break or fuse-like element to protect against overcurrent. When the electrical current through the contactor device reaches a threshold level, a pyrotechnic charge activates, permanently forcing the moveable contacts out of electrical contact with the fixed contacts.

Claim (Index 9):
A contactor device, comprising:\n a housing; internal components, said internal components comprising:\n fixed contacts electrically isolated from one another, said fixed contacts at least partially surrounded by said housing; \n one or more moveable contacts, said one or more moveable contacts allowing current flow between said fixed contacts when said one or more moveable contacts are contacting said fixed contacts; \n a shaft structure connected to said one or more moveable contacts; and \n contact structures electrically connected to said internal components for connection to external circuitry; and \n pyrotechnic features configured such that when a threshold current level passes through said internal components, said pyrotechnic features activate and interact with said shaft structure, such that said shaft structure changes configuration, such that said moveable contacts separate from said fixed contacts.
