    Abstract: A control device includes a button assembly having one or more buttons and a button carrier that includes a plurality of resilient, independently deflectable spring arms. The control device may be configured as a wall-mounted keypad to control a load control device, or as a thermostat to control a temperature regulation appliance. The button carrier may be configured to prevent interference between the buttons during operation of the control device. The button assembly may be captured between a faceplate of the control device and a housing that is attached to a rear side of the faceplate. The control device may include one or more button retainers that are attached to the buttons and that are configured to align respective outer surfaces of the buttons relative to each other, and relative to the faceplate of the control device, when the buttons are in respective rest positions.

    Abstract: A veneer configured to be secured to a backlit button of a control device may include a plate portion. The plate portion may have one or more laser-cut indicia defined therethrough, may have laser-cut rounded corners, and may have angularly offset outer edges that may be defined during an embossing process. The laser-cut indicia may be representative of a command for controlling an electrical load. The indicia may include an alphanumeric character, an icon, or the like, may define one or more substantially zero-radius corners, and may define respective inner surfaces that are substantially perpendicular to an outer surface of the plate portion. A laser-cut alphanumeric character may have variable (e.g., continuously variable) line width. The plate portion may define a rib that suspends a floating portion of the alphanumeric character relative to an open portion. The rib may define a thickness that does not exceed 0.003 inches.

    Abstract translation: 构造成固定到控制装置的背光按钮的单板可以包括板部分。 板部分可以具有通过其定义的一个或多个激光切割标记，可以具有激光切割的圆角，并且可以具有角度偏移的外部边缘，其可以在压花过程期间限定。 激光切割标记可以代表用于控制电负载的命令。 标记可以包括字母数字字符，图标等，可以限定一个或多个基本上零半径的角，并且可以限定基本上垂直于板部分的外表面的相应的内表面。 激光切割的字母数字字符可以具有可变（例如，连续可变的）线宽。 板部分可以限定使相对于打开部分悬挂字母数字字符的浮动部分的肋。 肋可以限定不超过0.003英寸的厚度。
