Abstract

A drive capacitor (4,5) drives a movable contact piece (MCP) (1) electrostatically and has two conductive surfaces set apart but parallel. One (4) of these surfaces is applied to one side of the MCP with a flexible suspension (2). Altering the charging status of the drive capacitor moves the MCP into and out of a structure on a mating contact piece (6,7) in order to open and close an electrical contact between the MCP and the mating contact piece.
