SLIDE BUTTON ACTUATORS
An input device is provided to supply multiple input from a button. The input device may include a first switch and a second switch. The input device may further include a slide button on a surface of the input device. The slide button may actuate the first switch when the slide button slides along a first direction substantially parallel to the surface of the input device. The slide button may actuate the second switch when the slide button slides along a second direction substantially parallel to the surface of the input device. The input device may further include a third switch. The slide button may actuate the third switch of the input device when the slide button is pressed towards the surface of the input device.

DARK-CURRENT-CIRCUIT INTERRUPTION STRUCTURE AND ELECTRICAL JUNCTION BOX INCLUDING SAME
Provided is a novel dark-current-circuit interruption structure that can stably maintain the state of engagement of an engaging portion of a conductive component holder with an engaged portion of a case, while reducing the size of the case, and an electrical junction box including the same. A conductive component is formed by a plate metal fitting, a conductive component holder 48 includes elastic projecting pieces and engaging portions that are provided on each of a pair of side walls that are opposingly positioned with a gap between the plate metal fitting and each of the side walls, and the case includes engaged portions with which the engaging portions are to be engaged. When attaching the conductive component holder to the case, the engaging portions and the engaged portions are configured to come into contact with each other to cause the elastic projecting pieces 68 and 76 to elastically deform.

WIRELESS ENABLED LOAD CONTROL DEVICE WITH VOICE CONTROLLER
A wireless enabled load control device having integrated voice control is disclosed. The load control device may be connected to a variety of local and remote devices, including lighting devices and smart appliances, as well as various cloud service platforms. The load control device may receive a voice command from a user. The load control device may transmit the voice command to a first cloud service platform for processing to determine an instruction included in the voice command. The determined instruction may be provided to a second cloud service platform connected to the first cloud service platform. The first and second cloud service platforms may be connected to a device to be controlled based on the voice command. The cloud service platforms can adjust an operation of the device based on the determined instruction.
SWITCH
A switch may include a movable board and a pole board having an inner surface on which a fixed contact point is exposed, the inner surface facing the movable board. A movable contact point may be supported by the movable board and may include a plurality of contact pieces making resilient contact with the inner surface of the pole board. The switch may also include an output terminal corresponding to the fixed contact point. The movable contact point and the fixed contact point may come in contact with each other when a position of the movable contact point is changed via a displacement of the movable board. The fixed contact point and the output terminal may be connected via a board having a disconnection detection circuit. The board may be enclosed in an insulating seal material.
MECHANICAL SLIDER FOR HEADPHONES
A linear-travel mechanical switch for use in a headphone device comprises a user button attached to a plunger. The plunger extends into a body of the headphone device. A travel pathway extends in a first linear direction from the plunger and in a second, opposite linear direction from the plunger. At least one bias device is integrated into the linear-travel mechanical switch. The at least one bias device biasing the plunger to a middle position along the travel pathway. A plunger button is located such that depressing the user button engages the plunger button. A first button is located such that a movement of the user button along the travel pathway in the first linear direction engages the first button. A second button is located such that a movement of the user button long the travel pathway in the second, opposite linear direction engages the second button.
Single-pole, single-throw detect switch
A switch including a housing and an actuator configured to move axially within the housing. The actuator includes a guide wing on a first side and a cam wing on a second side, wherein the cam wing has a cam surface on one face. The switch also includes respective first and second contact terminals partially extending from the housing, as well as a movable contact element retained within the housing proximate the contact terminals. The movable contact element includes a fixed branch, a first elastically deformable conductive blade, and a second elastically deformable conductive blade. The cam surface on the actuator is configured to cooperate with the first elastically deformable conductive blade to deform or relax the first elastically deformable conductive blade so as to selectively contact the first contact terminal dependent upon the axial position of the cam wing within the housing.
