A toggle switch system for a vehicle control panel includes a first electrical switch, a toggle body, and a rocker arm. The first electrical switch is configured to activate a first vehicle function. The toggle body has a proximal end and a distal end. The toggle body is configured to pivot along an axis that is between the proximal and distal ends. The toggle has upper and lower surfaces that define a slot that extends inward from the distal end. The rocker arm has a protrusion that extends into the slot between the upper and lower surfaces. The rocker arm also has a heel that is configured to rotate, engage, and activate the first electrical switch in response to the toggle body moving in a first direction to engage the protrusion with the toggle body within the slot.

A remote speaker microphone includes a housing having a bezel defining an outer surface. The remote speaker microphone further includes a toggle switch lever that rocks back and forth relative to the bezel. The remote speaker microphone further includes a bezel opening through which the toggle switch lever extends at the outer surface. The bezel and the toggle switch lever define a predetermined gap within the bezel opening and within which the toggle switch lever rocks. The bezel, the bezel opening, and the toggle switch lever together form an ice crushing region in response to rocking the toggle switch lever.

A multifunctional switch manipulator is provided. The manipulator includes a first switch unit, which is curved to be convex at the upper surface thereof, a second switch unit, which is disposed at a first side of the first switch unit and which extends radially in a first direction, and a third switch unit, which is disposed at a second side of the first switch unit and which extends radially in a second direction opposite the first direction. Each of the second and third switch units includes a housing that has an opening and a rotary knob disposed at the housing to be rotatable in a direction in which the opening extends, and at least one surface of the rotary knob is exposed to an outside through the opening.

A user programmable pushbutton switch system having a central processing unit (CPU), an IR transceiver, lights, and a current sensor. The switch is programmed with a remote controller having a CPU, an IR transceiver, programming buttons, a sending button, and a display. The programming buttons provide signals to the CPU in the remote controller for selection of specific program options which are sent to the CPU in the pushbutton switch when the ENTER button is pressed. The specific program options are then executed in the pushbutton switch. The program options include Function, Current, Dimmer, Turn timer off, and Turn timer on options. The Function options include ON/OFF through one electrical output channel, a momentary ON function through one channel, Nav/Anc through two channels, OFF-ON-ON with two channels, and a dimmer function with two channels.

A mechanical switch (10), in particular a light switch and/or a roller shutter switch and/or thermostat switch is provided. The mechanical switch (10) has a switching contact assembly (20), in particular a monostable, bistable or tristable switching contact assembly (20), and a base carrier (40), in which the switching contact assembly (20) is received The base carrier (40) has a holding device (50) for receiving an electromechanical actuator unit (100), which is designed in such a way that an electromechanical actuator unit (100) received in the holding device (50) can be supplied with voltage for effecting a state change of the switching contact assembly (20) independently of an external mechanical action on an operating mechanism by means of the electromechanical actuator unit (100).

A switch assembly comprises a button, a pivoting element, a first positioning element, and a second positioning element. The button has a first, second, and third states. The pivoting element extends from a height direction of the button, and has first and second contact parts arranged in the height direction. Surfaces of the first and second contact parts have different contours. The first positioning element and the second positioning element respectively correspond to the first contact part and the second contact part, and are movable relative to each other. A function of the first positioning element and a first positioning section of the first contact part is configuring the first state, and functions of the second positioning element and a second positioning section and a third positioning section of the second contact part are respectively configuring the second state and the third state.
