摘要： A switch and a method of manufacturing the switch are provided. In one embodiment, the switch comprises a switch assembly adapted to receive a first force in a first direction; and a protective member arranged on a substrate and adapted to receive the switch assembly, the protective member comprising a spring portion applying a second force to the switch assembly in a second direction that is opposite to the first direction, the switch assembly being adapted to be moved relative to the substrate in response to the first force exceeding a predefined threshold value. The switch is capable of absorbing excessive energy by a force applied on the switch, thus preventing the excessive energy breaking the substrate to which the switch is mounted.

摘要： A tip of a pair of arm portions that integrally extends from a fixed portion and both side portions of a front portion side of a key top are connected with each other in a coupling portion. When a downward pressing force is applied to a center of an operation surface of the key top, a bending moment using a connection portion of a substrate side as a fulcrum and a bending moment using the coupling portion of a tip side as a fulcrum act on the arm portion. The arm portion is deformed into a S-shape having bending deformation portions, and therefore the key top may be lowered in a nearly horizontal posture. The key top has a structure in which both side portions thereof are supported by the arm portions, thereby ensuring a small size and a large elevating stroke.

摘要： A finger activated switching device has an enclosure with a top wall and a bottom wall, the bottom wall movable on a supporting wall. An upper lever is pivotally joined to the enclosure, and is upwardly spaced apart from the top wall in a first rest position yet is upwardly displaceable using finger pressure from below. A lower lever is pivotally joined to the enclosure directly below the upper lever, and spaced apart from it in a second rest position yet is downwardly displaceable using finger pressure. When the levers are displaced from their rest positions a restoring element moves the levers back to their rest positions. Switching elements positioned in force transmission mechanisms with the levers provide electrical switching actions when the levers are displaced.
