An inspection station is capable of being used under harsh conditions. The inspection station includes switch elements to which the inspection station is responsive for generating a predetermined control signal in response to actuation of a switch element. A fluid tight sealing element isolates an interior of the inspection station from an outside of the inspection station, the sealing element including one or more flexible button areas at the locations of the switch elements to provide access from the outside of the inspection station to actuate the switch elements located in the interior of the sealing element.

A shelf bracket is provided. The shelf bracket includes a shelf member and opposing side flanges extending from a back plate. A front flange extends from each of said opposing side flanges. The back plate, shelf member, side flange, and front flange define a cavity configured to receive an enclosure, such as by moving the enclosure in a vertical direction in and out of engagement with the cavity. The shelf member defines a bottom limit of the cavity such that movement of the enclosure into the cavity is limited to a first vertical direction and movement of the enclosure out of the cavity is limited to a second vertical direction, the second vertical direction being diametrically opposed to the first vertical direction. A support flange is optionally included, which is configured to engage with a support structure so as to provide support for the shelf bracket.

A touchpad module includes a bracket, a touch member and a supporting assembly. The touch member is located over the bracket. The touch member includes a membrane wiring board and a circuit board. The circuit board is located over the membrane wiring board. The supporting assembly is arranged between a second end of the touch member and the bracket. While a first end of the touch member is pressed down, the first end of the touch member is swung relative to the bracket. Consequently, a membrane switch of the membrane wiring board is triggered. The present invention further provides a computing device with the touchpad module.

A sealed switch having a switch body with first and second switch body sections, a switch contact configured to be disposed in a slot in the first switch body section, a switch contact cover configured to cover the slot, and a seal configured to cover the circumference of the second switch body section.

A push-button comprising a first switch contact and a second switch contact which are arranged spaced apart and parallel to each other. The first switch contact is designed for establishing an electrical line connection to the second switch contact when force is applied. The push-button comprises a third switch contact which is arranged spaced apart from the second switch contact and in parallel on a side opposite to the first switch contact. The third switch contact is designed for establishing an electrical line connection to the second switch contact when force is applied. Furthermore, the push-button comprises an evaluation unit which is designed for additionally operating the first and/or the third switch contact(s) as a capacitive or inductive touch sensor.
