An operating device is provided for a human-powered vehicle. The operating device basically includes a base, a first electric switch, a second electric switch, a first operating member and a second operating member. The first operating member is movable with respect to the base to activate the first electric switch as the first operating member moves from a non-operated position to an intermediate operating position, and then activate the second electric switch as the first operating member moves from the intermediate operating position to an additional operating position. The second operating member is movable with respect to the base to activate the second electric switch as the second operating member moves from a non-operated position to an intermediate operating position, and then activate the first electric switch as the second operating member moves from the intermediate operating position of the second operating member to an additional operating position.

A touchpad module includes a substrate, a touch member, a switch, an elastic element and at least four protrusion structures. The substrate includes at least four first openings. A bottom surface of the touch member faces a top surface of the substrate. The switch is coupled with the bottom surface of the touch member. When any point of the touch member is pressed down, the switch is in contact with the substrate. The elastic element includes a fixed part and a movable part. The fixed part is coupled with a portion of a bottom surface of the substrate. The movable part is arranged around the fixed part. The movable part is located beneath the at least four first openings. The at least four protrusion structures are coupled with the touch member and inserted into the corresponding first openings.

Various examples of park brake interface modules which are utilized as human machine interfaces (HMI) in vehicles are provided. In one example, a park brake interface module for a vehicle includes an actuation member mounted to an electromechanical switch to actuate the park brake. The actuation member includes a finger pad opposite the front surface and the actuation member is movable between a brake apply position and a brake release position to actuate the vehicle park brake. In another example, the actuation member is pivotally mounted to the electromechanical switch device and the actuation member is pivotable between the brake apply position and the brake release positions to actuate the park brake.

A brush switch with resistors includes a case, a fixed contact point pattern that is fixed to the case, a lever that is supported by the case in an inclinable manner, and a movable contact point brush that is movable by an operation of the lever such that the movable contact point either contacts to or does not contact to the fixed contact point. Wherein the fixed contact point pattern has multiple fixed contact points that are disposed separated from one another in the case, and multiple terminals each of which is connected to the multiple fixed contact points, and the movable contact point brush has multiple contact point spring pieces that separate from or contact with the multiple fixed contact points, respectively, and multiple resistors, which have different resistance values, that are attached to spaces between the multiple contact point spring pieces.

A button structure includes a first component, a second component, and a pressing element mounted on the second component. The first component has a first base portion. The first base portion protrudes outward to form at least one first extending portion. The at least one first extending portion protrudes inward to form a limiting portion. The second component has a second base portion. The second base portion protrudes rearward to form at least one second extending portion. The at least one first extending portion and the at least one second extending portion are connected by a pivoting assembly. The at least one second extending portion protrudes rearward to form a blocking portion. When the blocking portion is pivoted on the first component, the blocking portion is alternatively located to a bottom of the limiting portion and a top of the limiting portion.

Trigger activated tools are provided that have one or more activation lockouts. The activation lockouts include electrical resets, variable position lockouts, mechanical lockouts, shield lockouts, and any combinations thereof.

A switch unit according to the present invention includes: a plurality of switches; a panel on which the plurality of switches are arranged side by side along one direction; and an attachment assembled to the panel in a state that at least one of the switches is assembled thereto. The panel is formed in a manner that a surface thereof bends along a parallel direction, which is a direction that the plurality of switches line up. The attachment has wall surface parts assembled to the switch so as to surround the switch. A side face part along the parallel direction of the panel has an engagement part. Among the wall surface parts of the attachment, a side wall surface part facing the side face part in a state that the attachment is assembled to the panel has an engaged part with which the engagement part is engaged.
