[0025] The technical solution of this utility model will be more clearly and completely explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through the description of the preferred embodiments of this utility model.

[0026] Example 1: As Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the preferred embodiment of this utility model provides an emergency light rotary switch structure for installation on the lamp tube 1 of an emergency light, which, upon rotation, switches the emergency light on and off. It includes a rotating sleeve 2 and a mounting sleeve 3. The mounting sleeve 3 is fitted onto one end of the rotating sleeve 2, and the rotating sleeve 2 can rotate relative to the mounting sleeve 3 about its axis. The end of the rotating sleeve 2 away from the mounting sleeve 3 is fitted onto the end of the lamp tube 1. The end of the mounting sleeve 3 away from the rotating sleeve 2 is provided with an anti-tampering component 34. This end of the mounting sleeve 3 is connected to an existing emergency light socket in a building facility, such as a G13 socket.

[0027] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the bottom of one end of the rotating sleeve 2 inserted into the mounting sleeve 3 has an opening extending circumferentially. The rotating sleeve 2 has a circuit board 22 inside, and a battery switch 21 is provided on the circuit board 22. The battery switch 21 is a toggle switch, and a toggle lever 211 is provided on the battery switch 21. The toggle lever 211 of the battery switch 21 faces the opening and is exposed outside the opening.

[0028] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the inner side of one end of the mounting sleeve 3, which is fitted onto the rotating sleeve 2, is provided with a toggle bar 31 that can toggle the toggle lever 211 of the battery switch 21. The toggle bar 31 extends along the axial direction of the mounting sleeve 3.

[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in actual operation, grasping the lamp tube 1 and rotating it along the axis causes the rotating sleeve 2 to rotate accordingly. The mounting sleeve 3, because it is installed on the emergency light socket of the building facility, remains fixed. Thus, the rotating sleeve 2 and the mounting sleeve 3 rotate relative to each other, causing the toggle bar 31 to abut against the toggle lever 211, causing it to move. This opens the battery switch 21, providing emergency lighting. Rotating the lamp tube 1 back causes the toggle lever 211 to be pushed back to its original position by the toggle bar 31, and the battery switch 21 turns off.

[0030] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the top of one end of the rotating sleeve 2 inserted into the mounting sleeve 3 is provided with a pressing groove 23. A positioning pressure strip 24 is provided in the pressing groove 23. One end of the positioning pressure strip 24 is connected to the side wall of the pressing groove 23, and the other end is movable. The positioning pressure strip 24 is arc-shaped and extends along the circumference of the rotating sleeve 2. The positioning pressure strip 24 is elastic. A positioning block 25 is provided on the side of the positioning pressure strip 24 facing away from the pressing groove 23.

[0031] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the inner side of one end of the mounting sleeve 3, which is fitted onto the rotating sleeve 2, is provided with two positioning grooves 32. The concave shape of the positioning grooves 32 is the same as the convex shape of the positioning block 25. The positions of the two positioning grooves 32 correspond to the positions of the positioning block 25 when the battery switch 21 is turned on and off, respectively. This provides a tactile feedback during the rotation of the switch, indicating the limit of rotation and preventing damage to the battery switch 21 from excessive rotation.

[0032] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the rotating sleeve 2 is inserted into the mounting sleeve 3, and one end of the mounting sleeve 2 is provided with a mounting ring 26. The mounting ring 26 extends circumferentially along the rotating sleeve 2, and the side of the mounting ring 26 facing the mounting sleeve 3 is set with an inclined surface. The inner side of the end of the mounting sleeve 3 that is fitted onto the rotating sleeve 2 is provided with a mounting buckle 33. Guided by the inclined surface, the mounting buckle 33 is fastened onto the mounting ring 26 to realize the installation of the rotating sleeve 2 and the mounting sleeve 3.

[0033] Example 2: An emergency light includes a lamp tube 1, one end of which is connected to the emergency light rotary switch structure of Example 1, and the other end is connected to any lamp holder mounting structure in the prior art, such as the common G13 lamp holder.

[0034] like Figure 2 and Figure 8As shown, the lamp tube 1 contains an emergency power supply 11, which is connected to a battery module wire. The emergency power supply 11 is electrically connected to the battery switch 21 through the battery module wire. The lamp tube 1 contains a lamp board 12, and the end of the lamp board 12 is equipped with an emergency test switch 13 and a charging indicator light 14. The rotating sleeve 2 is equipped with a button 27 corresponding to the emergency test switch 13, and the rotating sleeve 2 is equipped with a light guide column 28 corresponding to the charging indicator light 14.

[0035] The above-described specific embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Various modifications, substitutions, and improvements made by those skilled in the art to the technical solutions of the present invention based on the provided description and drawings, without departing from the design concept and spirit of the present invention, should all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. The scope of protection of the present invention is determined by the claims.
