An electronic device according to the present invention comprises a main body including a pair of body chassis, a pair of cover panels disposed to cover the front face and the back face of the main body, a switch unit disposed on the side part of the main body, an operation button which is held between the pair of cover panels and has a pusher projecting therefrom, a housing recess which is formed on at least one of the body chassis and recessed on a joint surface with the other body chassis to form a housing chamber for the switch unit, a through hole penetrating the one body chassis from the side face toward the housing recess, and a bag-like waterproof packing member which is attached to the through hole and recessed toward the switch unit to house the pusher of the operation button. The pusher of the operation button passes through the through hole toward the switch unit, and the end of the waterproof packing member is pressed against the switch unit to fixedly hold the switch unit inside the housing recess.

A thermal cut-off device includes a plastic base, two electrodes, a temperature sensing element, and a plastic cover that fits over the base. The temperature sensing element is curved downward, and may be a bimetal or a trimetal. When the device is subject to an over-temperature condition, the orientation of the curve flips such that the temperature sensing element is then curved upward. When the temperature sensing element is curved upward, it lifts an arm of one of the electrodes, which severs the electrical connection between the electrodes. In this manner the device shuts off during an over-temperature condition in order to protect the circuit in which the device is installed. To prevent corrosion of the temperature sensing element, a first moisture insulation layer is applied to the outer surface of the thermal cut-off device. The moisture insulation layer may be an epoxy adhesive or a UV/visible light-cured adhesive or light/heat cured adhesive. In some embodiments, a second moisture insulation layer is formed on the surface of the temperature sensing element.

A switch control module is provided, which includes housing, a control assembly, a linkage unit, and a number of positioning units. The housing defines an accommodating space and has an opening. The control assembly is positioned in the accommodating space and has a shaft that is rotatable about a main axis. The linkage unit passes through the opening and is connected to the shaft in a movable manner. The positioning units are positioned at the edge of the opening. Each of the positioning units extends radially and outwardly with the main axis as a center and is projected in a direction along the main axis. The linkage unit is selectively connected to one of the positioning units and is configured to drive the shaft to rotate so as to change the operation of the control module.

The present invention provides a switch which allows a communication module to be made waterproof while maintaining a switch function. A wireless switch device which functions as a rocker switch includes a cover member and an elastic waterproof member both of which seal an opening of a casing member in a state in which a wireless switch module is housed in the casing member. The wireless switch device further includes a seesaw-shaped member which is arranged on an outer side of the cover member and the waterproof member which outer side is opposite to a side on which the wireless switch module is sealed with the cover member and the waterproof member.

A waterproof passive wireless controller includes at least one waterproof assembly, at least one driver assembly, at least one power generator, at least one communication module, and at least one housing. The waterproof assembly and the housing form at least one waterproof chamber, wherein the power generator and the communication module are disposed in the waterproof chamber. In response to an external force applied on the driver assembly, the power generator is enclosed in a waterproof manner and is driven to actuate by the driver assembly to converts mechanical energy into electrical energy to power the communication module, such that the communication module is activated for sending out a control signal.

A push button switch includes a housing made up of a base and a cover, a first plunger mounted on the cover so as to be pushed down, a movable contacting piece configured to be driven by a push-down operation on the first plunger, a movable contact provided in the movable contacting piece, and a fixed contact disposed so as to come into and out of contact with the movable contact. Specifically, the movable contacting piece includes a movable contact piece provided with the movable contact, and an operation tongue piece disposed on at least one side of the movable contact piece and coupled with the movable contact piece so as to rotate integrally. The operation tongue piece is operated by the operation body of the first plunger to bring the movable contact into and out of contact with the fixed contact.

A sealing assembly for mating two sections of an electrical device enclosure is disclosed. The enclosure includes a top and bottom joinable section. The sealing assembly includes a first sealing section disposed on the top joinable section that has both first and second upper projecting lip extensions. The second upper projecting lip extension has a height less than the first upper projecting lip extension and forms a channel therebetween. A second sealing section is disposed on the bottom joinable section, and includes a downward projecting lip extension and channel. The downward projecting lip extension is offset from the first section first upward projecting lip extension when the top and bottom joinable sections are joined. At that point the downward projecting lip extension engages within the channel of the first sealing section, and the second upper projecting lip extension of said first sealing section is engaged within the second sealing section channel. The second sealing section channel can include a compressible gasket for waterproofing.
