BUTTON ASSEMBLY AND CONTROLLER INCLUDING THE SAME
A button assembly includes a pedestal, a pressure sensor module and a key cap. The pedestal has an accommodating groove penetrating upward through a top surface of the pedestal. Two opposite sides of the pedestal protrude oppositely outward to form a lower active portion and a lower pivot portion. The pressure sensor module is mounted in the accommodating groove. The key cap is covered on the pressure sensor module. A bottom surface of the key cap has a contact portion contacting with the pressure sensor module. Two opposite sides of the key cap protrude oppositely outward to form an upper active portion and an upper pivot portion. The upper pivot portion rotate pivoting the lower pivot portion, the upper active portion moves downward and upward with respect to the lower active portion.
Button, game controller and remote controller
A button, a game controller and a remote controller are provided. The button comprises a cylindrical button cap (1) and a cylindrical button bracket (2). The button bracket (2) is provided with a first magnetic connector (3), and the button cap (1) is provided with a second magnetic connector (4) at a corresponding position. The button cap (1) is covered on the button bracket (2), and the button cap (1) and the button bracket (2) are connected by a magnetic attraction force between the first magnetic connector (3) and the second magnetic connector (4). The button cap (1) and the button bracket (2) may be further provided with engageable sawtooth structures (11, 21).
LEVER SWITCH DEVICE
A lever switch device includes a shaft member, a rotary operation member, a push switch, and a flexible board. The flexible board has a first board part, a first wiring part connected to the first board part, a second board part, a second wiring part connected to the second board part, and an integrated wiring part. The first board part has a fixed contact. A movable contact of the rotary operation member comes into contact with and separates from the fixed contact in response to a positional shift of the rotary operation member. The second board part receives a signal output from the push switch. The integrated wiring part is at a position away from the first board part and the second board part, and a part of the first wiring part and a part of the second wiring part are integrated in the integrated wiring part.

PUSH BUTTON SHEET AND TOUCH PANEL
A push button sheet and a touch panel having the push button sheet, by which different input results can be obtained, between when an operator touches the push button sheet and when the operator presses the same button sheet. The push button sheet has at least one convex reaction area configured to be bent in a predetermined press direction, a first electrode arranged on a convex surface of the reaction area, a second electrode arranged within the reaction area and below the first electrode with respect to the press direction and electrically connected to the first electrode, and a third electrode arranged within a second reaction area, wherein the second electrode and the third electrode are electrically communicated when the reaction area is bent.
Heat destructive disconnecting switch
A heat destructive disconnecting switch comprises a first conductive member, a second conductive member, a movable conductive member, an overheating destructive member, an operating component, and a second elastic member. The movable conductive member conducts electricity to the first conductive member and the second conductive member. The overheating destructive member is formed as an integral body on a limiting member, and a first elastic member is compressed to between a contact member and the overheating destructive member, thereby providing the first elastic member with a first elastic force. The second elastic member is provided with a second elastic force. When the overheating destructive member is destructed due to overheating, the first elastic force is smaller than the second elastic force, causing the movable conductive member to disconnect the first conductive member from the second conductive member to achieve a protective effect from overheating.

Low-profile mechanical retention
An assembly of mechanical components includes a solder joint between two metal components. A mounted component is retained on one side of a support structure by a solder joint on the other side of the support structure between a retainer and a connector that is fast with the mounted component and extends through the support structure. The retainer is of sheet metal construction, so that a height of the solder joint is no more than the thickness of the retainer, thus providing a low-profile joint.
Key structure
A key structure includes a movable support element, a keycap, and a fitting portion. The keycap includes a top surface, a bottom surface, and a rim, the bottom surface is jointed with the movable support element, and a periphery of the top surface extends downward to form the rim. The fitting portion is located on the rim, and operated by an operation body to separate the keycap from the movable support element.
Compact pivoting input device
An input device includes an input structure, a magnet attached to the input structure, and an electromagnet. The magnet rotates when the electromagnet is activated, thereby rotating the input structure. The magnet and input structure rotate about a pivot in order to provide haptic and/or visual feedback to a user. The pivot may attach the magnet and input structure to a body, which in turn may be affixed to, or part of, an electronic device. The electromagnet can encircle the body and/or magnet.
