Claim Text:
1. A switching apparatus for an electrical appliance, the switching apparatus comprising: a plurality of electric switches electrically connected to the electrical appliance, each electric switch of the plurality of electric switches configured to be flipped to an ON operating position for switching ON the electrical appliance and configured to be flipped to an OFF operating position for switching OFF the electrical appliance; a plurality of ON solenoid devices electro-magnetically coupled to ON terminals corresponding to ON operating positions of the plurality of electric switches in a respective manner, wherein the plurality of ON solenoid devices are electrically connected to each other; and a plurality of OFF solenoid devices electro-magnetically coupled to OFF terminals corresponding to OFF operating positions of the plurality of electric switches in a respective manner, wherein the plurality of OFF solenoid devices are electrically connected to each other; wherein when an electric switch of the plurality of electric switches is flipped to an ON operating position of the electric switch, a respective OFF solenoid device coupled to the electric switch is de-activated that causes de-activation of remaining OFF solenoid devices of the plurality of OFF solenoid devices thereby electro-magnetically flipping remaining electric switches of the plurality of electric switches to respective ON operating positions, and wherein when the electric switch is flipped to an OFF operating position of the electric switch, a respective ON solenoid device coupled to the electric switch is de-activated that causes de-activation of remaining ON solenoid devices of the plurality of ON solenoid devices thereby electro-magnetically flipping the remaining electric switches to respective OFF operating positions.
