A control device includes a button assembly having one or more buttons and a button carrier that includes a plurality of resilient, independently deflectable spring arms. The control device may be configured as a wall-mounted keypad to control a load control device, or as a thermostat to control a temperature regulation appliance. The button carrier may be configured to prevent interference between the buttons during operation of the control device. The button assembly may be captured between a faceplate of the control device and a housing that is attached to a rear side of the faceplate. The control device may include one or more button retainers that are attached to the buttons and that are configured to align respective outer surfaces of the buttons relative to each other, and relative to the faceplate of the control device, when the buttons are in respective rest positions.

An electromagnetic relay includes a fixed spring, a fixed contact configured to be swaged so as to be attached to the fixed spring, a movable spring, and a movable contact provided on the movable spring so as to be capable of making contact with the fixed contact, wherein a swaged portion of the fixed contact is formed so as not to protrude from a surface of the fixed spring.

Plug-on neutral circuit breakers include a housing, a plug-on neutral clip with a crown held in the housing and with legs extending out from the housing and in communication with a biasing member that resides at least partially in the housing that allows the plug-on neutral clip to move between first and second positions associated with pre-installed and fully installed orientations.

The invention relates to an electrical switch, in particular for a motor vehicle, such as for an electric parking brake in the motor vehicle, comprising a movable operating member, in particular in the manner of a rocker, and comprising a contact system, wherein the operating member interacts with the contact system in a switching manner. The operating member interacts via an operating element, which is loaded with an elastic force, with a slotted link for generating a resetting force during the movement of the operating member out of an inoperative position. A further slotted switching link is provided. The operating member has a further operating element in such a manner that each of the two operating elements interacts with one slotted switching link each.

A directional input unit is provided for a power tool having an electric motor is provided, where the input unit is configured to output a signal indicative of a rotational direction of the electric motor. The input unit includes a forward/reverse actuator having a lever extending from an engagement member and pivotable around a pivot member, the lever having a contact tip, and a biasing member. The biasing member including a lever engaging member engaging the contact tip and having an upper portion and a lower portion with a groove formed at an end common point of the upper and lower portions. A first leg of the biasing member extend downwardly from the upper portion and arranged to be securely received inside an opening of a holder, and a second leg extends upwardly from the lower portion outside the opening between the lever engaging member and the first leg.

A ground fault circuit interrupter includes a reset key, a reset mechanism, a conductive assembly configured to connect a power supply input side to a load side, a leakage signal detection circuit, and an electromagnetic tripping mechanism. The reset mechanism comprises a reset support and a support return mechanism. The reset support comprises a reset bracket and a support reset spring. The support return mechanism comprises a reset pole, a reset key spring, a compression spring, a reset block, a compression spring container, a reset slider, and a contact conductive part. The contact conductive part is disposed at a lower end of the reset slider and is configured to align with a position of a switch contact on a first PCB board. A state of contact or separation between the contact conductive part and the switch contact is configured to control an on-off state of the conductive assembly.

A trigger switch according to one or more embodiments may include a pressure sensor such as a pressure sensitive element that detects a depressed amount of a trigger in response to a depressing operation on the trigger. A trigger switch may include a trigger movable in response to a depressing operation, an urging member including a first end in contact with the trigger and a second end and urging the trigger in a direction opposite to a depressing direction in which the trigger is depressed, an elastic member in contact with the second end of the urging member, and a pressure sensor in contact with the elastic member to detect pressure applied from the elastic member.

An electronic device includes a housing, a button module and a control board. The button module includes a button cap having a space, a follower movably disposed in the space, and an elastic member. A movable cavity is defined by a portion of the follower located in the space and an inner surface of the button cap. The elastic member is disposed in the movable cavity, and two ends of the elastic member respectively abut against the inner surface of the button cap and the follower. An amount of compression of the elastic member is varied in response to the size of the movable cavity. When the button cap is in an unpressed state, the elastic member has a first amount of compression and generates a restoring force; when the button cap is in a pressed state, the follower abuts against a switch unit of the control board correspondingly.
