Patent Images
1. A self-contained switch comprising:
- a housing;
an actuation means adapted to initiate a physical movement of;
a power generating means capable of generating a voltage from physically moving said actuation means, and translating said physical movement into an electrical moment, said power generating means in operative communication with;
a transmitter to transmit a signal such that said signal is addressed, so that said signal is unique and wherein said means for transmitting a signal being in operative communication with;
a means for receiving said signal and a series of programmed instructions from said signal from said transmitting means to be received by said receiving means and effective to direct an operation; and
a protocol for employing said series of instructions received by said receiving means effective to complete an operation.

2. A self-contained switch comprising:
-
a housing;
an actuation means adapted to initiate a physical movement of;
a power generating means capable of generating a voltage from physically moving said actuation means, and translating said physical movement into an electrical moment, said power generating means in operative communication with;
a rectifier;
a filter in communication with a voltage regulator;
a microchip transmitter containing encoded data and enabled to transmit encoded data through an antennae to a remote antenna, by virtue of a crystal that provides a specific frequency for the transmission of said data, said remote antenna in communication with a microchip receiver, said microchip receiver containing a decoder mask to decode the encoded data received by said receiver to activate a latch and to communicate with a relay driver, said relay driver being in communication with a relay which in turn is in operative communication with an end appliance and a power source.
