Problems solved by technology

The currently used gear control switch is also composed of a skeleton, a driving lever, a contact mounting frame and a contact piece, wherein the driving lever has a spherical shape, and the skeleton has a cavity for accommodating the spherical ball, and the driving lever passes through the cavity and can be connected with the The contacts are in contact; the contact mounting frame is welded or riveted on the frame. Since the contact mounting frame and the frame are two separate parts, no matter it is welded or riveted, after long-term use, the contact mounting frame often falls off from the frame. The gear position control switch is scrapped; the gear control switch with this structure, because the lever passes through the cavity on the skeleton, its gear position is limited only by the cavity wall, which makes the precision requirement when processing the skeleton It is particularly high, resulting in an increase in the difficulty of processing the frame, especially in the case of the current manufacturing industry in China with low processing technology. After the lever is installed on this frame, the gear control is very inaccurate. , or the range of the lever is too large, so that the lever is directly separated from the paddle after the paddle is moved, or the range of the lever is too small, the paddle cannot be moved, or even the paddle cannot be positioned
Therefore, the gear control switch with this structure often cannot accurately control the work of the pickup, causing the tone to be confused when the guitar is played, and the tone quality that the guitarist likes cannot be played.

Embodiment Construction

[0017] Referring to the accompanying drawings, this gear control switch for an electric guitar includes a skeleton 8, a lever 26 with a ball 2, a contact mount 15, and inner and outer contacts 13, 16, 12, 17, the described The skeleton 8 has a cavity 27 for accommodating the ball 2, the driving rod 26 passes through the cavity 27 on the skeleton 8, the ball 2 has a through hole 19, and the driving rod 27 passes through the cavity 27 Afterwards, its ball 2 stays in the cavity 27, and the through hole 19 of the skeleton 8 and the ball 2 is passed through the rivet 7, and the ball 2 is rotatably positioned in the cavity 27, and the inner and outer contacts 13 . The tops 21, 22 of the contacts 13, 16, 12, 17 are in contact with each other in the working state, wherein the inner and outer contacts 13, 16, 12, 17 are all made of copper sheets and have certain elasticity, so as long as After the top of one of the contact sheets is made into a certain bending angle, the contact point...

Abstract

The invention discloses a gear control switch for an electric guitar. The gear control switch for the electric guitar is characterized in that the gear control switch comprises a framework, a driving lever with a ball, wafer installation racks, an inner wafer and an outer wafer, the framework is provided with a cavity for containing the ball, the driving lever penetrates through the cavity of the framework, the inner wafer and the outer wafer are arranged on the wafer installation racks respectively, the root portion of the inner wafer and the root portion of the outer wafer are isolated from each other through an insulating plate, the top of the inner wafer makes contact with the top of the outer wafer in a working state, the top of the outer wafer is higher than the top of the inner wafer and can make contact with the driving lever, the wafer installation racks and the framework are of an integral structure. The gear control switch is good in hand feeling when operated, durable in use and accurate in control, a pickup can be accurately controlled to work when the gear control switch is used for the electric guitar so that beautiful music can be played through the electric guitar.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a pickup switch device of an electric guitar, in particular to a control switch involving multiple operations for frequent switching between tones of the electric guitar. Background technique [0002] To make an electric guitar play a variety of tones and produce a wonderful tone, it is necessary to install more than one pickup on the electric guitar; guitarists like to selectively use pickups, pickup configurations, additional circuits, and different combinations of amplification types to produce sounds similar to theirs. Tonal quality consistent with the different playing styles you prefer, and switching between these tones can be done with frequent and multi-operated gear control switches. The currently used gear control switch is also composed of a skeleton, a driving lever, a contact mounting frame and a contact piece, wherein the driving lever has a spherical shape, and the skeleton has a cavity for accommodating the sphe...
