US Patent 10415948 Touch sensor

The present invention relates to a touch sensor and, more particularly, to a touch sensor having a solenoid provided therein, wherein the touch sensor: after a plunger is pushed out of a main body case thereof when a detected start command is input, detects the plunger being pushed into the main body case by means of a detected object (bed) and generates a detection signal; and when a detection end command is input, allows the plunger to be pushed in, thereby removing hindering elements that arise and solving spatial limitations while 3D printing or operating machine tools. Also, the touch sensor is capable of carrying out a detecting function quickly and at a low power consumption and enables manpower to be reduced.
