An improved mechanical interlock including one or more features to facilitate a more robust design, easier assembly, and/or enhanced capabilities. For example, the mechanical interlock may include an interlock latch operatively associated with an external handle assembly and an internal connector. The interlock latch being directly coupled to a shaft coupled to the handle assembly, thus providing an improved and more robust latching mechanism. The mechanical interlock may also include one or more keys (e.g., a Poke-Yoke feature) to facilitate easier assembly and/or to prevent human errors caused by improper assembly. The mechanical interlock may also include an integrated magnetic switch and monitoring system to ensure that accurate location of the handle assembly is known.

An input device includes an manipulating part, a movable member fixed to the manipulating part and having a rotating shaft, a fixing member configured to rotatably support the rotating shaft so that the movable member is rotatable, a flex sensor disposed on the manipulating part and configured to detect flexing of the manipulating part, a switch disposed on the movable member or the fixing member, pressed by a rotating operation of the movable member, and configured to switch between an on state and an off state when a flexing amount of the manipulating part reaches a predetermined amount, and a signal processor configured to output a control signal, based on a first output signal of the flex sensor, and a second output signal of the switch.

An electrical equipment for an electrical installation connected to an electrical grid, has at least: a primary functional module (2) suitable for carrying out a current interruption function, and an additional functional module (5) for carrying out a function requiring a power supply The function of the additional functional module (5) is a function requiring a power supply except for an indicator light lighting function.

An improved mechanical interlock is disclosed. The mechanical interlock includes one or more features to facilitate easier assembly and/or manufacturing. Additionally, and/or alternatively, the mechanical interlock may include one or more features provided increased protection. The mechanical interlock may include a baseplate arranged and configured to receive one or more components thereon so that the components can be coupled and wired as a sub-assembly prior to inserting into the enclosure. The mechanical interlock may include an adapter positioned between a connector and a contact carrier bracket to enable variously sized connectors to be coupled to a common contact carrier bracket. The adapter may include one or more keys to prevent improper coupling of the adapter. The contact carrier bracket may be arranged and configured to receive one or more PCBs to provide an increased level of protection for the PCB.

A switching mechanism includes an actuator rotatable between an off position and an on position; and a timing disc assembly that includes an actuator disc, a bias disc, and a switch disc arranged in a stack. The actuator disc is rotatably connected to the actuator. The bias disc is connected to at least one biasing mechanism. The switch disc is connected to a switch. The actuator disc is configured to engage the bias disc such that the actuator disc is configured to rotate the bias disc to an overcenter position of the at least one biasing mechanism. The overcenter position of the at least one biasing mechanism is configured to rotate the bias disc such that engagement between the bias disc and the switch disc is configured to rotate the switch disc between a closed position and an open position of the switch.

A side key structure of an electronic device includes a housing, a flexible circuit board, and a side key. The housing defines a receiving groove. The flexible circuit board includes a key switch. The side key includes a main key body, a fastener, and a pressing portion. The flexible circuit board is mounted on a sidewall of the receiving groove. The pressing portion and the fastener are arranged on a same side of the main key body. The main key body is partially received in the receiving groove. The fastener and the pressing portion pass through a second sidewall of the receiving groove. The fastener is mounted within the receiving groove. The main key body is configured to be pressed to cause the pressing portion to press the key switch to activate the key switch.
