TOGGLE BUTTON
A toggle button assembly for a human-machine interface (HMI). The toggle button assembly includes a circuit board. A first switch and a second switch are mounted to the circuit board. A toggle body is rotatable about a toggle body rotation axis. A first switch actuator is between the toggle body and the first switch, and a second switch actuator is between the toggle body and the second switch. Upon actuation of the toggle body from a center position to a first position, the toggle body rotates about the toggle body rotation axis and presses the first switch actuator against the first switch to actuate the first switch. Upon actuation of the toggle body from the center position to a second position, the toggle body rotates about the toggle body rotation axis and presses the second switch actuator against the second switch to actuate the second switch.

SWITCH STRUCTURE
A switch structure used for switching on or off an electronic system is provided. The switch structure includes a base, a switch body pivoted to the base, a first electrode connected and moved along with the switch body, a second electrode disposed on the based and corresponds to the first electrode, a torsion assembly, and a power source. The first electrode and the second electrode are electrically connected to the electronic system, respectively. The torsion assembly is connected to and drives the switch body, so as to drive the first electrode and the second electrode to switch between a conductive state and a non-conductive state. The power source is connected to the torsion assembly, and the power source provides a torsion to the switch body via the torsion assembly in an automatic state so as to switch the switch structure between the conductive state and the non-conductive state.

Low profile circuit breaker lock-out assembly
An electrical panel assembly comprising at least one circuit breaker and a mounted low-profile circuit breaker lock-out assembly is disclosed. The circuit breaker lock-out assembly includes a first and second mount. The first mount is for mounting to a first end of a circuit breaker housing wall adjacent a circuit breaker switch lever and includes an outward projection having a through-hole. The second mount is for mounting to a second end of the circuit breaker housing wall and includes a pivotally attached arm that is rotatable between an unlocked and locked position in which the arm is aligned with the outward projection allowing a lock to be inserted through the projection through-hole and a corresponding hole in the arm. The arm is shaped to receive the circuit breaker switch lever and hold the lever immobile when the arm is in the locked position and the lock is inserted.
