ANTI-GHOST MEMBRANE SWITCH DEVICE
An anti-ghost membrane switch device includes a first membrane layer, a second membrane layer, and a spacing layer. A first surface of the first membrane layer is provided with first trigger points and a first signal line. The first signal line is connected to the first trigger points and extends to a first output terminal. A second surface of the second membrane layer faces towards the first surface and is provided with second trigger points and second signal lines. Ends of the second signal lines are connected to the second trigger points. Another ends of the second signal lines extend to the second output terminal. The second signal lines are not electrically connected with one another. The first signal line of the first membrane layer and the second signal lines are not electrically connected with one another. The spacing layer is between the first and second membrane layers.
Keyswitch backlight structure and illuminated keyswitch structure therewith
A keyswitch backlight structure includes a light-guiding layer, a reflective layer, and a transparent adhesive layer. The light-guiding layer has a bottom surface, a light-emitting surface opposite to the bottom surface, and a surface microstructure formed on the light-emitting surface. The reflective layer is disposed opposite to the bottom surface. The transparent adhesive layer is closely attached to and between the reflective layer and the light-guiding layer corresponding to the surface microstructure. An illuminated keyswitch structure includes base plate, a keycap, a supporting mechanism, and the above keyswitch backlight structure. The keyswitch backlight structure and the base plate are stacked. The supporting mechanism is connected to and between the base plate and the keycap for lifting the keycap relative to the base plate. Light entering the light-guiding layer exits the light-guiding layer through the light-emitting surface to illuminate a transparent indication area of the keycap.

PUSH-BUTTON EQUIPMENT, PRESSEL THEREFOR AND PUSH-BUTTON ARRANGEMENT
A push-button equipment includes a pressel; a mounting collar for being installed on a base, such as a button panel, the mounting collar including a seat for receiving the pressel; the pressel including a pressing face for receiving a press of a user and being insertable in the seat of the mounting collar in a forward direction orthogonal to the pressing face. The pressel is movable in the seat into a locked position by rotating it in the seat around a rotational axis extending in said direction orthogonal to the pressing face. In said locked position the collar blocks the pressel from moving in backwards direction orthogonal to the pressing face out from the seat. A pressel for the push-button equipment and a push-button arrangement of an elevator are also disclosed.
