A switch device that includes a switch, a casing, side wall portions extending in a first direction from the casing, front and back wall portions extending in the first direction from the casing, a dust-proof portion extending from the back wall portion, and an operation knob including an upper surface portion swingable in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction and a third direction opposite to the second direction and covers the dust-proof portion, and a back surface portion extending in a fourth direction opposite to the first direction from the back end of the upper surface portion and faces a part of the dust-proof portion, wherein the side wall portions, the front wall portion, and the back wall portion form a substantially rectangular shape, the side wall portions, the front wall portion, and the dust-proof portion form another substantially rectangular shape greater than the substantially rectangular shape.

A switch device includes a panel housing a knob, the panel having a wall face around the knob. In at least one of outside faces of the knob, the outside faces opposing the wall face and another member adjacent to the knob, the outside face has a base part formed on an upper side thereof and a recess part formed in a lower side thereof. The recess part extends to a lower end of the outside face. The base part has an obliquely downwardly inclined parts formed on a lower edge part thereof. Accordingly, the device can ensure stable operation of the knob by discharging, from a gap between the panel and the knob, liquid that has entered the gap.

In a switch device, a switch part is turned ON/OFF by operation of an operating knob housed in a recessed part of a panel so that a movable terminal and a fixed terminal are in contact or are separated. An outside face, opposing an inner peripheral face of the recessed part of the panel, of the operating knob is an inclined face that is inclined inward of the operating knob in going downward. A gap that widens in going downward is formed between the outside face of the operating knob and the inner peripheral face of the recessed part of the panel. Accordingly, the device can ensure stable operation of the operating knob by discharging, from the gap between the panel and the operating knob, liquid that has entered the gap, and that can improve the appearance.

An embodiment of this application discloses a handheld infrared imager that includes a cell and a batter cover. The cell is provided with a circumferential positioning hole, a circumferential positioning protrusion is correspondingly provided at an end of the battery cover, and the circumferential positioning protrusion and the circumferential positioning hole are engaged with each other to implement relative circumferential positioning. A longitudinal positioning protrusion is provided on an outer peripheral side wall of the cell, a longitudinal positioning groove is correspondingly provided on a sidewall of the battery cover, and the longitudinal positioning protrusion and the longitudinal positioning groove are engaged with each other to implement relative longitudinal positioning. In embodiments of the present application, in the assembly of the cell and the battery cover, a positioning method with the fixed buckling of the sidewalls of the cell and protrusion-groove engagement of the bottom of the cell is used, so that the assembly is extremely simple.

An electrical switch assembly includes a switch actuator connected to a switch housing. The switch housing is connected to a baseplate. A faceplate is connected over the baseplate. At least one of the switch actuator and the faceplate includes an anti-microbial material.

A signal switch for a power tool has a paddle supported by a rocker that extends into a switch housing to pivot an actuating member. A circuit board is attached to a bottom of the switch. At least one micro-switch extends from the circuit board into the switch in position to be actuated by the actuating member depending on a position of the paddle. The circuit board includes a connector that is configured to connect to a cable, such as a ribbon cable. Circuit traces on the circuit board are electrically connected to the micro-switches and the electrical connector. The interior of the switch housing is sealed from the exterior environment so that the mechanical components of the switch are shielded from the environment.
