A grip for a firearm having a controllable accessory has a first axis aligned with a long axis of the firearm and a second axis transverse the first axis. The grip includes an elongated switch lever having a pivot end and a controlled end, the elongated switch lever having a long axis aligned with the second axis of the grip and coupled at the controlled end to a thumb pad extending beyond a main body of the grip, a pivot disposed at the pivot end of the elongated switch lever about which the elongated switch lever may rotate, and a switch mounted in the grip adjacent to the elongated switch lever and configured to change states when the thumb pad is depressed.

An electrical switch with identifying features. Embodiments include an electrical switch that comprises a rocker that is pivotable between a first position and a second position such that the electrical circuit is energized when the rocker is in the first position and deenergized when the rocker is in the second position, a cover arranged within the rocker such that a front surface of the cover is viewable by a user; an interchangeable label arrangeable a rear surface of the cover, a light pipe arrangeable proximate a rear surface of the interchangeable label, and an illuminating element. In embodiments, the electrical switch may include a tactile switch arranged proximate a rear surface of the light pipe, such that the tactile switch can be activated by an application of rearward pressure to the cover.

A device for extending one or more electric switches is provided. The device may include: an extension rod for actuating the electric switches; a front plate for keeping the extension rod aligned during actuation of the electric switches; and a fastener portion for securely attaching the front plate to a wall mount plate corresponding to the electric switches. Further, the extension rod may include a switch actuator portion implemented as a single structure that is configured to actuate a rocker switch and a toggle switch.

A switch device includes an operation knob unit integrally including an operation knob, a detection part to detect proximity to or contact with the operation knob, a conduction part electrically connected to the detection part, a first control unit that is electrically connected to the detection part via the conduction part, determines proximity to or contact with the operation knob based on a first output signal outputted from the detection part and outputs a determination result as a second output signal, and a sub-substrate that is attached to the operation knob and includes the first control unit.

An electronic device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may include: a housing including a first plate and a second plate, wherein the first plate includes an opening; a display panel at least partially exposed through the opening and including a touch sensor; a first support member coupled to the display panel and a portion of the first plate along at least part of one side of the opening; and a switch device configured to be actuated according to a depression of the display panel, the depression caused by a downward force exerted on an upper portion of the display panel. Other various embodiments are also possible.

A switching device includes a first knob to receive a pressing operation in a first direction; a pressing detection switch to be pressed upon transmission of an operating force of the pressing operation; a decorative member to decorate a periphery of the first knob, that includes an engaged portion; and a holder to engage and hold the decorative member, that includes an engaging portion to engage the engaged portion. In response to the pressing operation by a first stroke amount, by the operating force transmitted to the pressing detection switch without transmitted to the engaged portion, the pressing detection switch is pressed. In response to the pressing operation by a second stroke amount greater than the first stroke amount, by the operating force applied to the first knob being transmitted to the engaged portion, the engaged portion elastically deforms, and engagement of the engaging/engaged portions is released.

A switch apparatus according to one embodiment includes an operation portion, a surface film and a light source. The operation portion has an elongated shape with first and second opposite ends in a longitudinal direction of the operation portion, receives a pressing operation of a user at least at one of the first and second ends, and is translucent. The surface film is formed on a surface of the operation portion and is translucent. The light source is arranged on a back-surface side of the operation portion and emits light toward the at least one of the first and second ends.

A mouse device includes a casing, a circuit board and two button modules. The circuit board is disposed within the casing. Each button module includes an electronic switch, a button lid, a first protrusion post, a second protrusion post and a buffering structure. The electronic switch is disposed within the casing. An end of the button lid is connected with the casing. The first protrusion post and the second protrusion post are disposed on the bottom surface of the button lid. The buffering structure is disposed on the casing and aligned with the second protrusion post. The second protrusion post is inserted into a buffering hole of the buffering structure. While the button lid is depressed or the pressing force is released, the buffering structure is contacted or not contacted with the second protrusion post along a first lateral direction and/or a second lateral direction.

A switch assembly including a socket, a top cap, and an intermediate cart located in the socket. The intermediate cart is slidable with the socket. The top cap is in a spherical or pivot engagement with the intermediate cart. An activation force of the sliding movement is lower than an activation force of the spherical or pivot movement.
