A push-to-talk assembly includes a metal ring defining an interior aperture and including at least one exterior protrusion configured to couple the metal ring to a surface of the portable communication device. The push-to-talk assembly further includes a button coupled to the metal ring and including a flexible polymer material disposed within the interior aperture and co-molded to the metal ring. The button includes a first side configured to be contacted and pressed, and a second, opposite side configured to face an interior of the portable communication device. The push-to-talk assembly further includes a metal backing plate coupled to the second side of the button.

A light switch hook assembly including a light switch plate and a hook extending outwardly therefrom. A fastener is inserted through an aperture defined in the hook and then into a hole defined in the light switch plate. The end of the fastener is subsequently inserted into an opening defined in a light switch mounted within an electrical connector box. The light switch plate may already be installed on a wall. In this instance, a fastener is removed from this pre-existing light switch plate, the hook is positioned against the plate, and the fastener is inserted through the aperture in the hook, through the hole from which the fastener was previously removed, and into the opening in the light switch. A cover may be engaged with the hook to cover the head of the fastener. An article may be hung on the hook.

An electronic device includes a substrate having a top surface, a bottom surface and at least one opening therethrough. The substrate has a circuit. A switch mechanism is mounted to the substrate and is electrically connected to the circuit. The switch mechanism has an actuator configured to activate the switch mechanism. The switch mechanism has a housing holding the actuator and leads extending from the housing. The leads are electrically connected to the circuit. The switch mechanism is mounted to the substrate in the opening such that at least a portion of the housing is positioned below the top surface.

A side-push push-button switch is provided in which the strength of a rear surface side of a housing to which a load is particularly applied by outside force caused by the switching operation of a push-button member is increased to stably mount the housing on a circuit board and ensure reliable and secure switching operation. The push-button switch includes a housing, a push-button member, and a holding frame. The housing accommodates a switch contact. The push-button member is disposed on a front-surface center portion of the housing and configured to press the switch contact. The holding frame of a channel shape covers outer surfaces of the housing. Both ends of the holding frame are secured to front-surface side portions of the housing on both sides of the push-button member.

A switch control apparatus for electric plants includes a box-like body which is adapted to be anchored to a fixed o movable part of an electric plant and has a closing panel with at least one passage therethrough, at least one contact unit which is accommodated in the box-like body at the passage and is adapted to be electrically connected to at least one respective electric circuit of the plant for selective open/close control thereof, at least one actuator which is adapted to interact with the contact unit for the latter to ensure selective opening/closing of the respective circuits, an anchor system for anchoring the contact unit to the actuator. The anchor system includes a container member which is adapted to enclose and contain the contact unit and to be anchored to the closing panel in the box-like body for stably securing the contact unit on the actuator.

A wall station control unit includes a wall station housing and a keypad interface assembly having a keypad. The keypad interface assembly is adjustably attached to the wall station housing by a first fastener and a second fastener. The first fastener extends through a first fastener hole in the wall station housing, and the second fastener extends through a second fastener hole in the wall station housing. The first fastener and the second fastener are adjustable to change a spacing between the keypad interface assembly and the wall station housing to adjust a position of the keypad relative to the wall station housing.
