  • Patent number: 6909353
    Abstract: A multi-directional control device comprising a base (1) on which is mounted a stick (2) which is maintained in a non-active central position by elastic means (3) and which can be manually inclined to any orientation around said non-active central position against the force of said elastic means (3). Four hall effect sensors (4) are associated with said base (1) and one magnet (5) attached to said stick (2). The Hall effect sensors (4) are adapted to issue a signal in response to the variations in magnetic field produced by the movement of said magnet (5) when the stick (2) is inclined.

  • Patent number: 5543594
    Abstract: A miniature electrical push-button switch with built-in lamp comprises a push-button (13) having a translucent cover and a housing (10) in which the push-button (13) is seated. A tubular part (10a) of housing (10) is externally threaded for fastening nut (11) to the switch. A pushing member (13a) is attached to push-button (13) for actuation of microswitch (15). A socket comprises a disc-shaped base (18) removably linked to an end of tubular part (10a) that supports microswitch (15) and spring (40) for biasing pushing member (13a) away from microswitch (15). A portion of the socket is a lamp holder that extends outwardly from the tubular part (10a) forming a nucleus (17) and two flaps (19a, 19b) having stubs (20) at their ends for the attachment of microswitch (15). Microswitch (15) is also held by external surface (17a) of nucleus (17) and retained by resilient leg (21).
