A switch and methods of assembling a switch. The switch may include a housing; a first terminal electrically coupled to a power source; a second terminal electrically coupled to a load; a contact having a first contact end and a second contact end, the contact being operable to be in a closed position, in which the first contact end engages the first terminal and the second contact end engages the second terminal such that the contact electrically connects the first terminal to the second terminal, and an open position, in which the contact does not electrically connect the first terminal and the second terminal; and a biasing member configured to bias the contact towards the first terminal and the second terminal, the biasing member being operable to apply a first biasing force proximate the first contact end and a second biasing force proximate the second connect end.

This rotary control system for a device includes a rotary control member, rotationally mobile about a first fixed axis, between first and second positions, and a rotary control handle, intended to be secured in rotation with the rotary member about the first axis. It also includes a blocking device, that can be selectively moved, when the rotary member is in its first position, between a blocking configuration, in which it prevents the movement of the rotary member to its second position, and a release configuration, wherein the movement of the rotary member to its second position. This system further includes a locking plate, rotationally mobile about the first axis relative to the rotary member, when the rotary member is in its first position, between a locking position, in which a first orifice passing through the rotary member is superposed with a second orifice passing through the locking plate.

A computer device including an integrated input device is provided. The integrated input device includes a positive disconnect system including a display of an open connection to the integrated input device when the integrated input device is deactivated. The open connection comprises a visible metal trace on a line coupling the integrated input device to the computer device.

A rotational push switch includes a bottom shell having a first and a second conductive terminals connected to a power supply, and a third conductive terminal connected to the conductive elastic piece. The conductive elastic piece is mounted in the bottom shell. A switch assembly is mounted on a top shell mounted on the bottom shell. The switch assembly is switched to connect or detach the conductive elastic piece and the second conductive terminal. A cap is mounted on the switch assembly. When the conductive elastic piece is connected to or departed from the second conductive terminal, ON/OFF symbols can be correspondingly seen in a display window of the cap, and a user can recognize an ON/OFF state of the rotational push switch.

An ignition switch assembly is configured to be operatively connected to a gas valve. The ignition switch assembly may include a first ignition contact and a second ignition contact. The first and second ignition contacts may be sized and shaped the same. A hub may be configured to be rotated within the ignition switch assembly. A rotation of the hub in a first direction causes a portion of the first ignition contact to engage the second ignition contact. Further rotation of the hub in the first direction or rotation of the hub in a second direction that is opposite from the first direction causes the portion of the first ignition contact to disengage from the second ignition contact.
