A vehicular operating device includes an operating member manipulated to swing, a slider slidably fitted in a holding bore, a cam surface positioned in front of the slider, and a helical compression spring pressing the slider into pressure contact with the cam surface. The metal-made slider includes a first outer peripheral surface with a diameter being smaller than an inner diameter of the helical compression spring, and a guide portion with an outer diameter allowing the guide portion to slide along an inner peripheral surface of the holding bore. A resin-made annular spacer having an outer diameter substantially equal to that of the guide portion is fitted between the guide portion and the helical compression spring. The helical compression spring biases the slider through the annular spacer. The annular spacer holds the helical compression spring in a state not contacting the first outer peripheral surface and the guide portion.

A key structure includes a pedestal with a sliding groove, an upper cover, a triggering element, and a spring strip. The spring strip is movable within the sliding groove. The triggering element is arranged between the pedestal and the upper cover, and located beside the spring strip. When a keycap of the key structure is depressed, the triggering element is moved relative to the pedestal to push the spring strip. In response to the elasticity of the pushed spring strip, the spring strip is slid within the sliding groove to collide with the upper cover. Consequently, the key structure generates sound surely.

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.

A digital camera includes a rotary switch, a switching unit, and a switching unit. The switching unit switches between two states independently of a function other than functions assigned to the respective states of the rotary switch, the two states including a restricted state where rotation of the rotary switch is restricted with a clicking feel and a function of at least one of a shutter speed and an aperture as a function with discrete output values is related to the rotating operation of the rotary switch and a non-restricted state where rotation of the rotary switch is not restricted and a function of at least one of focusing, and a zoom magnification of a lens, and similar function as a function with continuous output values is related to the rotating operation of the rotary switch.

A gear structure and a dimmer and speed control switch, wherein the gear structure includes a plurality of positioning grooves and a gear switching component, and the plurality of positioning grooves are sequentially spaced apart on the housing; the gear switching component is movably Installed on the housing, it includes a positioning component and a biasing component connected with the positioning component. The positioning component has a first position that is positioned and matched with the positioning groove and a second position separated from the positioning groove. The biasing component applies a biasing force on position component that moves it toward the first position, the gear structure mentioned above can ensure accurate gear positioning during the operation of the dimmer and speed control switch, and is not prone to misoperate, which is convenient for users, and coordinated positioning grooves and positioning parts have the advantage of simplified structure.

An LED bulb includes an LED photoelectric module having at least two branches of LED beads with different color temperatures connected in parallel, a control switch connected with one of the branches of LED beads, and an adjustment ring. A total voltage of one branch of LED beads is less than that of each of the other branches of LED beads. The control switch has a ball, the adjustment ring has a magnet, and when the adjustment ring rotates, the magnet draws the ball to roll to switch on or off the control switch. When the control switch is on, the branch of LED beads connected with the control switch is lighted up, and when the control switch is off, the branch of LED beads connected with the control switch is not lighted up.

A trigger assembly for a power tool includes a housing, a moveable plunger extending from a surface of the housing, the movable plunger includes a first end disposed externally from the housing and a second end disposed internally within the housing. The trigger assembly further includes a trigger shoe coupled to the first end of the moveable plunger, and an arm including a first side that is moveably connected to the second end of the moveably plunger and a second side that is coupled to a magnet. The trigger assembly also includes a sensor configured to sense a magnetic field of the magnet. Movement of the trigger shoe rotates the magnet, and alters the magnetic field sensed by the sensor.

The invention relates to a knob structure for a washing machine and a washing machine. The knob structure includes a knob component, a display component, a pressing component, and a PCBA board. The knob component includes a knob rotating seat, a fixed body and a knob decorative ring. The upper part of the knob rotating seat is provided with a receiving groove 1, the middle section is provided with a receiving groove 2, and the lower end is provided with a receiving groove 3; the inner peripheral wall of the receiving groove 2 is provided with a plurality of uneven grooves distributed uniformly. A metal conductive sheet A is installed at the bottom of the second receiving groove. A metal conductive sheet B, a metal conductive sheet C, and a metal conductive sheet D are mounted on the lower end of the fixed body.
