Abstract:
A MEMS device includes at least one proof mass, the at least one proof mass is capable of moving to contact at least one target structure. The MEMS device further includes at least one elastic bump stop coupled to the proof mass and situated at a first distance from the target structure. The MEMS device additionally includes at least one secondary bump stop situated at a second distance from the target structure, wherein the second distance is greater than the first distance, and further wherein the at least one elastic bump stop moves to reduce the first distance when a shock is applied.

Claim (Index 1):
A MEMS device comprising:\n at least one proof mass coupled to a fixed structure through a spring; a bump stop coupled to the at least one proof mass through a flexible element and having a first contact surface; a secondary bump stop coupled to the at least one proof mass and having a second contact surface, wherein the first contact surface faces a first target structure surface of a target structure and the second contact surface faces a second target surface of the bump stop, and before the at least one proof mass extends toward the target structure, a first distance is defined by a distance between the first contact surface and the first target surface and a second distance is defined by a distance between the second contact surface and the second target surface surface, further wherein in response to the at least one proof mass extending toward the target structure, the bump stop extends toward and makes contact with the target structure at the first target structure surface and thereafter, further wherein the flexible element flexes thereby causing the secondary bump stop to make contact at a first bump stop surface of the bump stop.
