A neuromuscular stimulation device is described having a plastic casing housing a printed circuit board bearing control electronics, with the casing including an external integral flexible portion which is capable of being flexed into the interior of the casing so as to cause an electrically insulative substrate on which is carried an electrically conductive pathway to be pushed into contact with the PCB in order to complete an electrical circuit. Such a switch is relatively inexpensive to produce, as it has few moving parts, can be formed in a usual manufacturing process, and is robust.

An electric switch, in particular for manually operated electric tools or appliances with an electric motor, is switchable from outside by means of a plunger. A changeover device is provided for setting the direction of rotation of the electric motor, which changeover device can be activated for example by a tappet arranged on the outside. The switch is constructed very compactly, which simplifies the sealing of a switch of this type.

A switching unit (200) including a membrane (202), a housing (210), at least one rotary switch (204), at least one knob (216), and a sealing member (214). The membrane (202) defines a first opening (230) adapted to receive a portion of at least one rotary switch (204). The housing (210) defines a second opening adapted to be aligned with the first opening (230) to receive the portion of the at least one rotary switch (204). The at least one rotary switch (204) is disposed in the housing (210). The at least one knob (216) mounted on the at least one rotary switch (204). The sealing member (214) is positioned on the housing (210) in the second opening (231), around the at least one rotary switch (204), between the at least one knob (216) and the housing (210).

An electronic apparatus is disclosed. An electronic apparatus comprises a housing, a press switch, a push button, and a cable. The press switch is located in the housing. The push button is a button for pressing the press switch. The cable connects a first electronic part located in the push button to a second electronic part located closer to the inside than the first electronic part and located in the housing. The cable has a fixed portion that is part of the cable between the first electronic part and the second electronic part and that is fixed to the housing. The push button does not face the fixed portion in a direction in which the push button moves by being pushed.
