A mobile part of an electromagnetic actuator for an electric contactor. The mobile part is made up of a flat piece cut from a rolled sheet. This flat piece includes a first stage intended to face towards a fixed part of the actuator and a second stage, side-by-side with the first stage along an axis of movement of the mobile part. A solid section of the second stage, measured in a plane perpendicular to the axis of movement of the mobile part, is smaller than a solid section of the first stage.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a switchgear including: a fixed electrode which is disposed inside a cabinet; a movable electrode which is provided corresponding to the fixed electrode and rotates between a first position which comes in contact with the fixed electrode and a second position which is separated from the fixed electrode; a pedal which is disposed on the outside of the cabinet and guided in the vertical direction along a guide hole formed long in the cabinet in the vertical direction; a connecting rod which is rotatably connected to the pedal; and a hammer which is connected to the connecting rod and rotates together with the connecting rod to strike the movable electrode positioned at the first position.

A removable switching element for switching an electric current for an electrical switching device includes a housing; first and second fixed electrical conductors; a mobile electrical conductor that can be moved between a first position, in which the mobile electrical conductor electrically connects the first and second fixed electrical conductors; and a second position, in which the mobile electrical conductor is electrically isolated from the first and second fixed electrical conductors. The housing includes two windows passing therethrough, one being located facing an area of contact between the mobile conductor and the first fixed electrical conductor and the other being located facing an area of contact between the mobile conductor and the second fixed electrical conductor.

An operation device includes a motor capable of forward and reverse rotation, a transmission mechanism configured to convert forward and reverse rotation of the motor into linear ascending and descending motion and to provide tactile stimulation on an operation unit, and a controller configured to control switching of an energizing direction of the motor. The controller is configured to control acceleration such that an amount of ascending movement of the operation unit is increased by increasing driving power in a forward rotation direction of the motor, and to control deceleration such that the ascending movement of the operation unit decelerates by supplying driving power in a reverse rotation direction of the motor, in a predetermined time from when the operation unit starts the ascending movement via the transmission mechanism until a target displacement amount is reached.

A power-saving earphone includes a casing, an audio member, a sensing member, and an elastic soft sheath. The casing has first and second grounding paths provided separately. The audio member is disposed in the casing and includes a processing unit electrically connected with the first grounding path. The sensing member includes a controlling unit electrically connected with the second grounding path. The elastic soft sheath is disposed on the casing and capable of being elastically deformed by an external force. When the elastic soft sheath is not deformed, the first and second grounding paths form an open circuit. When the elastic soft sheath is elastically deformed by the external force, the elastic soft sheath electrically connects the first and second grounding paths, enabling the sensing member to function.
