An operating device includes: an operating section that rotates about a predetermined axis; and a shaft part to move integrally with the operating section. The shaft part has a first end and a second end projected in directions opposite from each other along the axis. A guide regulates movement of the shaft part in a radial direction. A first regulation part specifies a position of the shaft part in a thrust direction by contacting the first end of the shaft part. A second regulation part is press-contacted to the second end, such that the first end of the shaft part is made to contact the first regulation part. A locking part is arranged integrally with the second regulation part, and restricts the shaft part from separating from the guide, by contacting the second end.

The switch housing for capacitive switches has an outer contact surface and flat electrode structures which are arranged on the inside and in a position opposite the contact surface and which are placed by two-component injection molding in recessed regions of the housing body injected from a first, electrically non-conductive plastic component by a second, electrically conductive plastic component. Preferably, both plastic components are a polycarbonate, the second plastic component containing carbon fibers.

A keyboard structure includes a main body, on which a plurality of keystrokes and a upper surface are configured, where binding members are configured on the upper surface so that building blocks can be combined with the keyboard through the binding members, allowing the surface of the main body to be decorated. Furthermore, the binding members may be configured on a mounting element, and the mounting element is then combined with the main body in such a way that the main body can have the binding members adapted to be in combination with building blocks similarly.

A switch device that includes a switch, a casing, side wall portions extending in a first direction from the casing, front and back wall portions extending in the first direction from the casing, a dust-proof portion extending from the back wall portion, and an operation knob including an upper surface portion swingable in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction and a third direction opposite to the second direction and covers the dust-proof portion, and a back surface portion extending in a fourth direction opposite to the first direction from the back end of the upper surface portion and faces a part of the dust-proof portion, wherein the side wall portions, the front wall portion, and the back wall portion form a substantially rectangular shape, the side wall portions, the front wall portion, and the dust-proof portion form another substantially rectangular shape greater than the substantially rectangular shape.

A keyboard device includes a substrate, keycaps, and a frame. The substrate has a top surface and a bottom surface and includes a welding-fixing portion. The welding-fixing portion includes a through hole and an arch-shaped bridge member. The arch-shaped bridge member is connected in the through hole and divides the through hole into partition holes. The arch-shaped bridge member has an arch portion and bridge bases. The arch portion protrudes from the top surface to form a recessed portion. The frame is disposed on the top surface and includes hollow holes respectively corresponding to the keycaps. The frame includes a welding member, and the welding member includes welding posts and a welding-fixing base. The welding posts respectively pass through spaces between the edge portion of the through hole and the arch-shaped bridge member. The welding-fixing base is received and fixed in the through hole and the recessed portion.

A trip cam is for an operating handle assembly of an electrical switching apparatus. The electrical switching apparatus includes a housing and a number of poles. The operating handle assembly has an operating handle partially extending into the housing. The trip cam includes a mounting portion structured to be disposed in the housing, and an operating handle protrusion extending from the mounting portion and being structured to engage the operating handle.
