The electrical switch includes three fixed contacts and a rotatable knife contact being connected with a permanent electrical connection to a third one of the fixed contacts and including at least one pair of longitudinal blades. The rotatable knife contact connects in a first switching position only a first one and a third one of the fixed contacts electrically together, and in a second switching position only a second one and a third one of the fixed contacts. The rotatable knife contact connects further in a zero switching position the first, the second and the third fixed contact electrically together.

An input device comprises a depressible element with two switches including a first switch configured to generate a first signal when the depressible element is depressed by a threshold distance and a second switch configured to generate a second signal indicating when the depressible element is depressed by the threshold distance and the second switch is in an active state. One or more processors may be configured to receive the first signal from the first switch; configure the second switch to change from an inactive state to an active state in response to receiving the first signal; receive the second signal from the second switch in the active state; determine whether the second signal indicates that the depressible element is depressed by the threshold distance; and generate event data confirming that the depressible element is depressed by the threshold distance in response to receiving the second signal.

A connector device comprises a connector and a mating connector. The connector comprises a housing and a slider having a second regulated portion. The mating connector comprises a mating housing having a second regulation portion. The connector is movable between an open position and a closed position. The slider is held by the housing to be movable between a first position and a second position. When the connector is moved to a predetermined position together with the slider which is located at the second position upon a movement of the connector from the closed position toward the open position, the second regulated portion is brought into abutment with the second regulation portion, and a movement of the connector toward the open position beyond the predetermined position is regulated. When the slider is moved to the first position, the connector is movable to the open position.

An electric switch of the normally open type includes a body, an actuator moveable between a high rest position and a low active contact position, and first second elastically deformable contact blades supported by the body. A first contact section of the first contact blade extends above a second contact section of the second contact blade. The contact sections are superposed and distanced from each other when the actuator is in high rest position, and they are in mutual electrical contact when the actuator is in low position to establish an electrical switching path. The first contact section includes a longitudinal rib that protrude downwards with respect to the plane of the underside of the first section and which is able to cooperate with the transversal contact edge of the central opening. The transversal contact edge comprises a transverse contact bend for cooperating with convexity of the longitudinal rib.
