Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim
91 words
A SWITCH FOR ESTABLISHING A CONDUCTING PATH BETWEEN TWO ELECTRODES AND COMPRISING A PAIR OF SPACED ELECTRODES, A SHEET OF NON-POROUS DIELECTRIC INSULATING MATERIAL SANDWICHED BETWEEN SAID SPACED ELECTRODES, SAID SHEET BEING PROVIDED WITH A PLURALITY OF BLIND CHANNELS HAVING SUBSTANTIALLY THE SAME DIMENSIONS AND EXTENDING FROM ONE SURFACE OF SAID SHEET TOWARDS THE OTHER SURFACE THEREOF, SAID CHANNELS TERMINATING AT A PREDETERINED DISTANCE FROM SAID OTHER SURFACE TO PRODUCE ENHANCED ELECTRICAL STRESS IN SAID MATERIAL AT THE BLIND ENDS OF SAID CHANNELS WHEN A VOLTAGE IS APPLIED BETWEEN THE ELECTRODES.
