A clip-on task lamp has a ball-shaped head that is pivotally and frictionally mounted between the cup-shaped ends of two tines of a ball-holding fork so that the ball-head can be rotated to any position. The ball-head has a front lens with two LEDs that are backed by a reflector. The ball has a flexible two-state pushbutton switch on the rear side and an internal battery. The base of the ball-holding fork comprises a single leg with a small swivel ball. The lamp has a clamp part that has, at its top end, two arms with two respective cup ends that hold the small swivel ball by friction fit. The base end of the clamp part comprises two legs, a shorter one of which is springably pivoted on an ear of the other. The end of each leg has a swivel pad and the shorter leg has a projection for facilitating spreading the legs so that they can be sandwiched around a member and clamped to it.

A dual tactile feedback, three-state, low profile pushbutton switch comprising an insulated housing, a metal dome, an extended travel molded elastomeric dome or stem having a conductive material on a bottom surface for contacting the metal dome and contacts in the switch housing, a collar having an opening for a top portion of said elastomeric dome to protrude therethrough, and a fixed contact under the metal dome on the base of the insulated housing connected to a switch terminal. A flat plate with four legs is placed above the stem which moves adjacent to the walls of the housing. The plate extends through a frame and openings on the sides of the frame snap on to the sides of the insulated housing. Greater switch reliability is achieved by having the elastomeric dome with a bottom portion comprising a conductive material for contacting the metal dome. An alternate embodiment of the three-state switch comprises a pushbutton disposed above an upper, extruded, elastomeric element for lower cost advantages having conductive material on a bottom surface for making electrical contact within the base of the switch housing and a lower metal dome, when the pushbutton is activated. The lower metal dome also makes electrical contact with contacts in the base of the switch housing.

Briefly, an embodiment of the present invention includes a portable flash memory drive with a simplified mechanism, based upon the resilient properties of the material used to create the parts, for reliable extension and retraction of the device's interface plug. The portable flash memory drive is comprised of a metal housing (or case), a printed circuit board (PCB) assembly, PCB support, PCB assembly end cap, an upper, and lower housing, and in some embodiments a fingerprint sensor and/or key ring assembly. The press/push switch mechanism is located on either the side of the portable flash memory device, or the top; and relies upon the resilient properties of the material used to create the metal housing or end cap, to create a smooth, locking mechanism for the extension or retraction of the interface (i.e., USB or firewire) plug. The switching/locking mechanism relies upon grooves or notches within the material of the upper and/or lower housing for tracking and locking, coupled with protrusion tabs on the sliding components of the end cap or metal housing. Alternatively, in some embodiments of the present invention, a fingerprint sensor is also extended or retracted contemporaneously with the interface plug, and allows the end user to secure and unlock the data contained, in whole or in part, therein.

The present invention provides haptic steering wheel switch apparatus including: a haptic wheel housing unit disposed on a steering wheel of a vehicle; a circuit board unit disposed in the haptic wheel housing unit; and a haptic wheel device unit including a haptic wheel device actuator establishing an electrical connection with the circuit board unit and including a haptic shaft, a haptic knob connected to the haptic shaft and exposedly disposed on one surface of the haptic wheel housing unit, and a haptic wheel device sensing unit for detecting a rotating state of the haptic shaft, wherein the haptic knob achieves a rotary operation on a plane formed by the steering wheel of the vehicle, the haptic wheel device actuator moves in a longitudinal direction of the haptic shaft, and a button switch unit operating vertically and independently of the haptic knob is provided outside the haptic knob.

A mobile object, such as a hollow ball containing an electronic circuitry system is proposed. The circuitry includes a speech processor and a controller, an integrated circuit for a speech recorder, an integrated circuit for an audio amplifier, a microphone and a power supply and an impact switch and push button switches. In response to impact, the circuitry generates a randomly chosen multiple choice questions. According to the answer chosen by the player, he/she presses a push button switch representing the answer. The electronic system then verifies whether the answer is correct or incorrect and generates a signal accordingly.

A segmented touch screen overlies the display or displays of a console having an operating system and display controller for the display. A touch screen controller is continuously connected to each of the touch screen segments and separate touch position information is obtained for each touch screen segment. The console operating system can be supplied with separate position information for each segment or with a single touch position for combined segments. A number of docking module ports near the display optionally receive docking modules that cover segments of the touch screen and display. A module, including tactile elements such as push button switches, can be docked at any port. When a module is detected, the touch screen segment under the module is disabled and the display under the module is switched to display module specific information.

To provide a metal dome sheet 10 to which a metal dome 8 is attached. The metal dome 8 elastically deforms with a pressing operation of a key top 16, thereby to have electrical conduction with a contact 6 provided on a substrate 2, and restores from a deformed state when the pressing operation is released, thereby to release the conduction with the contact. The metal dome sheet 10 has an elastic pressing projection 12 which transmits pressing force applied from the key top 16 side to a top 8a of the metal dome 8.

A switch assembly includes a unitary push button housing including an actuable button, a retainer having a first surface and a second surface, in which the retainer is secured within the push button housing, a snap dome secured on the first surface of the retainer, and at least one terminal passing through the second surface of the retainer to the first surface. The button is configured to be actuated into the snap dome, so that the snap dome is urged into contact with the terminal.

The invention discloses a button switch. The button switch comprises a shell, a pressing element connected to the shell in a sliding mode and a contact bridge located in the shell. A movable contact is arranged at one end of the contact bridge and corresponds to a stationary contact arranged on a first terminal, and the other end of the contact bridge is matched with a second terminal to form a rotating supporting point; an elastic connecting piece is arranged between the middle of the contact bridge and the pressing element, and a switch-off elastic piece is arranged between the middle of the contact bridge and a base of the shell; when the pressing element is touched to lock the button switch, the contact bridge rotates downwards around the rotating supporting point under the action of the elastic connecting piece, and the movable contact is connected with the stationary contact; when the pressing element is touched to unlock the button switch, the contact bridge rotates upwards around the rotating supporting point under the action of the switch-off elastic piece, and the movable contact is separated from the stationary contact. The button switch is simple in structure, high in switch-off speed, short in arc discharge time and large in contact capacity.
