An operating device (1) for a power tool, including at least one first and second switching element (40, 50), the first switching element (40) being settable to a first and a second mode, and the second switching element (50) being settable to a first and a second mode, the first switching element (40) including at least one first signaling means (21) for the particular signaling of the first or second mode, and the second switching element (50) including at least one second signaling means (22) for the particular signaling of the first or second mode. The operating device is designed in such a way that the second switching element (50) is settable from the first mode to the second mode only when the first switching element (40) is set from the first mode to the second mode.

Disclosed is an air circuit breaker including a safety cover. According to embodiments disclosed herein, a setting unit of an overcurrent trip relay exposed to the outside through an opening is covered by the safety cover, and thus manipulation of the setting unit is not allowed before opening the safety cover. Accordingly, an accident due to malfunction or manipulation of the overcurrent trip relay by an unauthorized person may be prevented.

Apparatus and methods of providing power and/or data to devices at a touch panel are disclosed including a method of manufacturing a touch panel for a touchscreen, comprising the steps of: plotting at least one wire, on a layer of adhesive over a transparent substrate that comprises at least one through hole, in a predetermined pattern that comprises a first portion that extends over the substrate and a further portion that extends over a region of a transparent support that extends over at least a region of the through hole; providing touch electrodes for a touch panel of a touchscreen via the first portion of the plotted wire; and providing a plurality of electrical connectors for a user input device secured at the through hole, via the further portion of the plotted wire.

An electromagnetic double-armature relay with an excitation coil comprises a first yoke and a second yoke, which are arranged on the excitation coil. The first leg of the first yoke serves as a support for a first armature and the first leg of the second yoke serves as a support for a second armature. The double-armature relay has a first comb which cooperates with the first armature, and a second comb cooperates with the second armature. In addition, the double-armature relay has at least two contact bridges, each of which is detachably arranged with a first end in the first comb and the second end in the second comb and comprises two contact rivets oriented in opposite directions, and fixed contacts which are arranged opposite the contact rivets of the contact bridge. The arrangement of the two yokes and armatures are such that the two combs perform opposing translational movements.

Switch having a first part and a second part. The switch is configured to activate in response to a switch sequence including activation of the first part followed by activation of the second part. One of the first and second parts includes a touch sensor and is configured to activate in response to a first switching method in which a user moves a digit along a predetermined digit path over the touch sensor. The other of the first and second parts is activatable in response to a second switching method different from the first switching method.

A switch includes an operating member and three contacts (first, second and third contacts). The operating member displaces between a first and a second positions. A state of the three contacts is switched between a first and a second states by displacement of the operating member. Each contact connects or disconnects a signal line in the first state, and puts, in the second state, the signal line into a state reverse to the first stat. In course of the displacement of the operating member from the first position to the second position, the first contact switches from the first state to the second state, the second contact switches from the first state to the second state after switching of the first contact, and the third contact switches from the second state to the first state at a timing between switching of the first contact and switching of the second contact.

A switch blocking device that is insertable into an open switch that prevents the switch from being closed, the device being sized and shaped to fit securely in a space between an open blade of the switch and fixed electrical contacts of the switch, the device having a handle that enables easy insertion and removal while also covering the live electrical blade.

A knob device for vehicle includes a knob unit and a locking unit. The knob unit includes a rotating cover with an open end, a rotary shaft mounted to the open end, and a motor fixed to the rotating cover for driving the rotating cover to vibrate. The locking unit includes a rotary wheel which includes a main body fixed to the rotary shaft and latching teeth formed at a periphery of the main body and distributed in a ring around a central axis of the rotary wheel, a gap being defined between two neighboring teeth, an iron core configured to be inserted into the gap to limit rotation of the rotary wheel, and a solenoid connected to the iron core for driving the iron core to move. The knob device can realize locking of the rotary wheel clockwise and counter-clockwise, meeting requirement of diverse use.

A switch includes an operating member and three contacts (first, second and third contacts). The operating member displaces between a first and a second positions. A state of the three contacts is switched between a first and a second states by displacement of the operating member. Each contact connects or disconnects a signal line in the first state, and puts, in the second state, the signal line into a state reverse to the first stat. In course of the displacement of the operating member from the first position to the second position, the first contact switches from the first state to the second state, the second contact switches from the first state to the second state after switching of the first contact, and the third contact switches from the second state to the first state at a timing between switching of the first contact and switching of the second contact.
