Abstract

A switch device includes a lock component and a crossbar. The crossbar is configured to open or close electric contacts. The crossbar includes a lock receiving section for receiving the lock component after the switch device is turned to an ON position for a period of time. The lock component is disengaged from the lock receiving section after the period of time to allow the crossbar jump upwards to close the electric contacts quickly.
