Provided is a reliable switch having a contact surface that is prevented from being roughened. To solve the problem, there is provided a switch including a plurality of switching units 2 and 3 each including a fixed electrode and a movable electrode that is disposed to be opposed to the fixed electrode and is closed or opened with respect to the fixed electrode, the switch being characterized in that the switching units 2 and 3 each make or break a current to be applied to the switch, the switching units 2 and 3 are electrically connected in series to each other, and the switching units 2 and 3 are each configured such that a first switching unit 3 is first closed, and then a second switching unit 2 is closed. |

A switch includes: a hermetic vessel filled with an insulating medium; an insulating spacer dividing the hermetic vessel into a first heretic space and second heretic space; an electrode fixedly penetrating through the insulating spacer; and a first circuit breaker part inserted between a first conductor and the electrode in the first hermetic space and serially connecting a second conductor in the second heretic space in a closed state, and having a first contact including the electrode and a first driver driving the first contact. The first circuit breaker part is a vacuum circuit breaker having the first contact housed in a vacuum vessel and a second circuit breaker part having the second contact larger in dielectric strength than in the vacuum circuit breaker. In an interrupting operation from the closed state, the first contact and the second contact are opened, and the first contact is closed when or after the second contact is opened. |

The present invention is provided with a delay unit for applying a function of a double-pole contact switch and a control function of an activation switch, so as for the contact switch and the activation switch not to operate simultaneously when turned on. Accordingly, when a predetermined time elapses after the double-pole contact switch operates first to prevent an inrush current shock, the activation switch generates a control signal to safely operate an internal circuit such as a central processing device or a control device, so that an electronic product is turned on without an electrical shock or a significant spark. Moreover, if power is cut off by software or the internal circuit is turned off in response to a control signal of the activation switch after an ON button of the electronic product is pressed, the double-pole contact switch is automatically turned off immediately or over a time interval, so that standby power is cut off completely, safely, conveniently, and effectively. |

A switch and an electronic device maintain a power supply ON state until data processing is completed, and automatically turn OFF the power supply after the data processing is completed. The switch includes a rotation operating body that does not receive an operation force from an operating element when OFF operated is arranged inside the operating element. The rotation operating body includes a switch operating portion for turning ON a power supply switch mechanism and a return spring regulating piece for biasing a return spring in an anti-biasing direction. A regulating state of the return spring regulated by the return spring regulating piece is held, where the ON state of the power supply switch mechanism is held with a permanent magnet, and the ON state of the power supply switch mechanism is released by applying a release force on the permanent magnet when the power supply is reset. |

The present invention provides a standby power cut-off switch which is directly installed in electric products such as TV sets, audio systems, computers, etc., so that even when a power plug is connected to an electrical outlet, supply of an external power to the electric products through the plug is completely interrupted (i.e., double pole interruption) mechanically by means of an automatically controlled OFF signal so as to prevent the consumption of standby power, and in which a first input terminal and a first output terminal are first electrically connected to each other and then a second input terminal and a second output terminal are electrically connected to each other so that a double-pole switch eventually functions as a single-pole switch so as to allow an electrical contact between terminals to be made sequentially, thereby preventing a spark and an electrical shock to the electric product that may occur when the two poles of the switch concurrently come into close contact with a main body of the electric product during the powering on of the electric products. |

There is provided a time-delay soft switch that has one or more first layers (10) of material with first elastomeric properties and one or more second layers of material with second elastomeric properties differing from those of the one or more first layers (10). One or more first layers (10) and/or one or more second layers (20) are each provided with at least one electrically conductive portion surface (12, 22). The time-delay switch provides, via the relative elastomeric properties of the layers, a time delay for opening and/or closing of an electric circuit that is compatible with the soft, flexible nature of a fabric. |
