A rotary knob that rotates in a pushed state includes an extending portion extending in a rotation direction of the rotary knob, and the extending portion includes a cutout portion cut out so as to prevent a first switch that detects that the rotary knob is pushed in from being pressed in a case where the rotary knob is in an intermediate range in which the rotary knob is in a pushed state.

An operation unit structure of the embodiment includes a switch case disposed close to a grip part of a handlebar of a straddle-type vehicle, an operating element provided in the switch case, and indicators and provided in the switch case common to the operating element.

A scooter includes a diversity of sensors to adapt scooter characteristics to any one or more than one of safety aspects, and scooter, environmental or driver states. Scooter characteristics susceptible to adaptation include throttle response; motor torque; motor speed; speed; maximum current drawn from energy storage system; braking characteristics, such as distribution, maximum braking power, anti-blocking system parameters or braking; adjusting vehicle dynamics, and suspension parameters such as stiffness, or damping coefficient.

The invention provides an electric drill including a bracket with a handle, a drill rod, a motor assembly, and a switch assembly. The switch assembly includes a first micro switch configured to activate or deactivate the motor assembly, a switch pivotably mounted on the handle through a pivot and cooperating with the first micro switch, and a self-locking button engaged with the switch and configured as: when the self-locking button is in a first state, the self-locking button abuts against the switch to prevent the switch from rotating around the pivot; when the self-locking button is in a second state, the self-locking button is disengaged with the switch, and the switch can rotate around the pivot.

A handlebar switch device for a saddled vehicle is provided in which a handlebar switch case and a handlebar grip that is disposed on an outside in a vehicle width direction of the handlebar switch case are mounted on a handlebar forming part of a steering handle. A sub switch case is supported on a stay that is selected from a plurality of kinds of stays that can be mounted on the handlebar at a fixed relative position with respect to the handlebar switch case while being adjacent to the handlebar switch case from an inside in the vehicle width direction. This enables a sub switch case to be additionally disposed without impairing the ease of operation of a switch of the handlebar switch case.

To provide a handlebar switch that can achieve reduction in size of a switch case, while ensuring operability of switches that increase in number, a handlebar switch includes switch cases disposed on a handlebar inside a handlebar grip in a vehicle width direction and a plurality of switches disposed on the switch cases. The switches include direction switches that specify up, down, left, and right directions. The direction switches disposed to form one vertical row include a pair of upper and lower depressing up and down switches that specify up and down directions, respectively, and a tilting left-right switch that is disposed between the up and down switches and that specifies a left or right direction. Other switches are disposed at the left and right of the direction switches.

A control system configured with ergonomic hand grips is provided. The control system may be configured with the steering device of a vehicle and may include control buttons that may be programmed to control different aspects of electronic devices.

Bicycle component motion control begins when a motorized bicycle component is commanded to shift or actuate. The bicycle component motion control compares parameters of a component of the bicycle to be moved, to predetermined thresholds to provide safe shifting or actuation. The shift or actuation starts only when the battery voltage and the battery temperature are within predetermined acceptable ranges, respectively. Once the shift or actuation has started, the shift or actuation is aborted if the battery voltage remains below a predetermined low voltage threshold for a predetermined amount of time. If the shift or actuation is aborted when the component is in a position, in which the bicycle may not operate at a particular level or is inoperable, the shift or actuation command is modified to move the component to a previous position or an intermediate position.
