Newly developed 1-circuit 2-contact detection switch SSCZ: Kii Minpo AGARA

Alps Alpine Co., Ltd. (TOKYO: 6770, President: Toshihiro Kuriyama, Headquarters: Tokyo (hereinafter referred to as Alps Alpine) has developed a new lineup of compact detection switches SSCZ in the switch series that detects the opening and closing of automobile doors, etc. ◆◆◆ With the progress of computerization of automobiles, the demand for electronic parts used is not only smaller and lighter, but also more accurate, and as a response to failures, malfunctions, and malfunctions. There is an increasing need for safety, such as the early detection of abnormalities such as disconnection of peripheral circuits. Even for door lock modules that require a small detection switch, failure detection functions and improved key lock / unlock accuracy have been achieved. There is a demand for improvement in mounting, and in order to meet these demands, Alps Alpine has made improvements based on the SSCW on sale, and has developed a small detection switch SSCZ. In recent years, automobiles have been expanded in safety equipment and vehicle speed. The number of vehicles that support automatic locking such as reaction locking is increasing. In the automatic locking system, the ECU automatically locks / unlocks according to the situation, so it is necessary to detect the door lock status. The existing product SSCW (1 circuit 1 contact) is mainly used for vehicle door lock detection, but since the newly developed SSCZ uses 1 circuit 2 contacts, it detects two lock / unlock states. Furthermore, by adopting double-sided sliding contacts, high contact reliability is ensured even in an environment where shocks and vibrations are applied. Also, by changing the internal structure, it is three times as much as the conventional product. It has an operating life of 300,000 times. Alps Alpine has been manufacturing and selling in-vehicle detection switches for over 20 years. In addition to door open / close detection, which is currently the main use. However, in recent years, demand for EV charger connection detection and smart room mirror on / off detection has been increasing, and we plan to gradually expand the applications. Alps Alpine will continue to meet the needs of customers and the market. We will strive to develop the optimal products that we have captured and aim to contribute to solving social issues through our business.
