A multidirectional input device of the present disclosure includes a case, a movable body that is mounted on the case so as to be movable in a plurality of directions with a predetermined neutral position as a base point, a first position detector that outputs a first signal in response to a position of the movable body, a second position detector that outputs a second signal when the movable body is located at the neutral position, and a controller that detects a moving direction of the movable body by the first signal. The controller corrects a threshold value for determination for detecting the moving direction in response to the first signal and the second signal.

A window switch assembly of a vehicle comprises a base; a rail on the base; and a control member partially received in the rail and slidable in the rail. The rail includes a first rail body extending at a traverse direction, a first end portion and a second end portion communicated with the first rail body. The first end portion includes a first switch and a second switch opposite each other in a longitudinal direction, and the second end portion includes a third switch and a fourth switch opposite each other in the longitudinal direction. The control member selectively contacts the first switch and the second switch to control a first window, and selectively contacts the third switch and the fourth switch to control a second window.

A robot teaching dvice allowing a user to operate an enable switch provided on the robot teaching device in a similar manner regardless of the user's dominant hand. A hand-held robot teaching device includes an enable switch built-in includes a main body including a holding portion that is configured to be held by one hand, and an enable switch operating section that is provided on the holding portion and is configured to be operated by a reference switching motion of a hand holding the holding portion in a reference position. The enable switch operating section includes a switching motion specifying mechanism that makes the reference switching motion in the reference position easier than another motion.

The acoustic device includes: an operator; a state switching mechanism that performs switching of operation modes of the operator in response to a switching operation; and an operational-feeling switching mechanism that performs switching of operational feelings of the operator in response to the switching operation, along with the switching of the operation modes performed by the state switching mechanism.

An earthing switch includes a fixed contact part fixed in an enclosure, a movable contact part disposed to face the fixed contact part, having a hollow portion formed therein, and having one end portion connected to a driving device and driven by the driving device so that the other end portion thereof is connected to or separated from the fixed contact part, and a piston part located in the hollow portion and moving relative to the movable contact part, wherein the hollow portion extends in a longitudinal direction of the movable contact part, both end portions of the hollow portion in the longitudinal direction are formed to be open, and the piston part includes a gas flow path formed therein.

An electronic device includes: a camera module, a camera window formed to cover the camera module and installed in a first opening, a bracket receiving the camera window and the camera module and adhered to a rear cover by a third waterproof member, a fourth waterproof member adhering the window cover and the bracket, a second opening formed in the bracket and connected to the inside of the middle frame, and a filter member disposed in the second opening and blocking movement of water and forming a movement path of air, wherein a gap is formed between an edge of the rear cover forming the first opening and an edge of the camera window and a movement region is formed by a space between the rear cover and the bracket and connected to the second opening, such that air and water are introduced.

The manipulation device includes: a fixing portion having a fixing surface to be fixed on an object; a moving part that has a moving surface arranged to face the fixing surface and is configured such that the relative position of the moving surface with respect to the fixing surface is manually adjusted; a fixing portion side circuit component that is arranged at the fixing portion; a moving portion side circuit component that is arranged at the moving portion so as not to be in contact with the fixing portion side circuit component, and includes an electric circuit where the impedance as measured from the fixing portion side is a predetermined impedance; and an input portion that is arranged at the moving portion manually operable, and changes the impedance of the electric circuit measured from the fixing portion.

An operating device has an operating shaft, engagement protrusions, and a movable body. The movable body can rotate relative to the operating shaft. The movable body engages with the engagement protrusions at positions separate from its rotation center. The movable body rotates relative to the operating shaft through the engagement with the engagement protrusions according to the translation of the operating shaft. A base abuts against the movable body in the rotational direction of this movable body and receives a force due to the movement of the operating shaft from the movable body. Sensors detect the force acting on the base. According to this, an operating device having a novel structure allowing detection of the translation of the operating shaft is implemented.

In one aspect, a switch assembly includes a switch housing that includes one or more compound switches, each comprising a first switch and a second switch embedded within the first switch. Each compound switch includes a first subassembly of constituent parts that includes the first switch and implements a first switching function. Each compound switch also includes a second subassembly of constituent parts embedded within and carried by the first subassembly of constituent parts. The second subassembly of constituent parts includes the second switch and implements a second switching function that is distinct from the first switching function. The switch assembly includes one or more extended plungers and corresponding guiding features that advantageously allow for the use of a single keypad and PCB with respect to the compound switches.

In one aspect, a switch assembly includes two or more switch modules of different types and comprising different switch module subassemblies. The switch assembly also includes a switch housing having two or more sets of features integrally molded or formed in an underside or interior surface of the switch housing. Each set of features corresponds to a respective one of the different switch module subassemblies and comprises alignment and support features for the respective switch module subassembly.
