Locking mechanism with push- and pull-to-release function and device comprising such locking mechanism
The present invention relates to a locking mechanism (13) comprising a first locking member (11), a second locking member (12), and a biasing member (14) exerting, during operation, a biasing force (FB) on at least the first locking member (11) or the second locking member (12) in a biasing direction (B). The locking mechanism further comprises a guiding structure (32) for mutually guiding the first and second locking members (11, 12), wherein the first locking member (11) comprises a track structure (15) and the second locking member (12) comprises a guided element (16) guided by the track structure (15). The locking mechanism (13) is moved from an un-locked to a locked condition by applying a pushing force to at least one of the first and second locking members (11, 12). The locking mechanism (13) can be moved from the locked to the un-locked condition by applying either a pushing or a pulling force to at least one of the first and second locking members (11, 12). The invention further relates to a device comprising such a locking mechanism (13). Such a device may be a holding device (40) for a shaving apparatus (24), for example a cleaning device for cleaning a shaving head (26) of a shaving apparatus (24).
Control stick
A control stick includes a control portion, a first electrical contact portion and a second electrical contact portion. The control portion has plural first moving contact points, the first electrical contact portion has a control board and plural first static contact points corresponding to the first moving contact points respectively, and a gap exists between the first moving contact point and the respective first static contact point. The first static contact points are electrically connected with the control board. When the control portion swings towards one of the first moving contact points, the first moving contact point is contacted and conducted with the first static contact point. This control stick is capable of achieving the control of a multiple of variables to meet the requirements of controlling a multiple variable in some occasions.

Illumination system and planar light source
A planar light source emits planar light by power supplied from a mounting member. The planar light source includes an engaging part, a planar-light-emitting panel having a light-emitting surface, and a connecting unit disposed between the engaging part and the planar-light-emitting panel. The engaging part forms a portion of a power supply path for supplying power from the mounting member to the planar-light-emitting panel. The planar-light-emitting panel includes a planar-light-emitting tile and a translucent plate, where one main surface of the planar-light-emitting tile includes a light-emitting region. The planar-light-emitting panel emits, in a lighting state, the planar light from the light-emitting region of the planar-light-emitting tile through the translucent plate. An output of the planar light from the planar light source is adjusted by pressing the light-emitting surface.
Lockable trigger mechanism for use in an electrical device
A lockable trigger mechanism for an electrical device, comprising: a housing; a trigger for biased movement relative to the housing; an actuator movably mounted to the housing such that in response to operation of the trigger, the actuator is movable along a movement axis from an OFF position inwardly of the housing towards an ON position, and movable along the movement axis from the ON position in a direction outwardly of the housing towards the OFF position; an electrical switch unit mounted to the housing for activation in response to movement of the actuator along the movement axis between its ON and OFF positions to close and open an electrical circuit of the electrical device respectively; and a locking mechanism comprising a first locking member, a second locking member and a biasing member configured for biasing movement of the first locking member relative to the second locking member.
ILLUMINATED PUSHBUTTION SWITCH
An illuminated pushbutton switch is provided. The pushbutton switch includes a case, a button assembly received in the case, and a switch contact assembly disposed in the case. The button assembly includes a button part, a first spring against a center of the button part, a waterproof jacket assembled in the button part, and a frame fixed on the button part. The switch contact assembly includes a switch frame, a plurality of second springs against a bottom side of the switch frame, a contact sheet against the plurality of second springs, a rivet penetrating the contact sheet and the switch frame, a plurality of contacts disposed at an interval from the contact sheet, a plurality of pins used for fixing the contacts, and a bottom case receiving the pins.
LOCKING MECHANISM WITH PUSH- AND PULL-TO-RELEASE FUNCTION AND DEVICE COMPRISING SUCH LOCKING MECHANISM
The present invention relates to a locking mechanism (13) comprising a first locking member (11), a second locking member (12), and a biasing member (14) exerting, during operation, a biasing force (FB) on at least the first locking member (11) or the second locking member (12) in a biasing direction (B). The locking mechanism further comprises a guiding structure (32) for mutually guiding the first and second locking members (11, 12), wherein the first locking member (11) comprises a track structure (15) and the second locking member (12) comprises a guided element (16) guided by the track structure (15). The locking mechanism (13) is moved from an un-locked to a locked condition by applying a pushing force to at least one of the first and second locking members (11, 12). The locking mechanism (13) can be moved from the locked to the un-locked condition by applying either a pushing or a pulling force to at least one of the first and second locking members (11, 12). The invention further relates to a device comprising such a locking mechanism (13). Such a device may be a holding device (40) for a shaving apparatus (24), for example a cleaning device for cleaning a shaving head (26) of a shaving apparatus (24).
