Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a switch device, in particular to a self-generating switch device. Background Art

[0002] Switches are common devices in power systems that are used to open or break a circuit or transfer current to electronic components in other circuits to control the opening and closing or operation of electrical equipment, such as controlling the blinking of lights in a home or the ringing of a doorbell.

[0003] Currently, switches are commonly powered by either mains electricity or batteries. Mains power requires complex wiring, which not only affects the aesthetics but also prevents the switch from being easily repositioned. Battery power requires replacement or recharging when the battery runs out, causing inconvenience and hassle, shortening the switch's lifespan, and polluting the environment. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the above, in one embodiment, a self-generating switch device is provided, comprising a housing, a switch button, a movable seat, and a power generation module. The housing comprises an assembly opening and a first pivot portion. The switch button comprises a second pivot portion, a first linkage arm, and a second linkage arm. The switch button is disposed in the assembly opening and is pivotally mounted to the first pivot portion via the second pivot portion. The first linkage arm and the second linkage arm are respectively located on opposite sides of the second pivot portion. The switch button can selectively swing relative to the housing between a first position and a second position with the second pivot portion as the axis. The movable seat can be movably disposed within the housing and positioned between the first linkage arm and the second linkage arm of the switch button. The power generation module is disposed within the housing. When the switch button moves from the first position to the second position, the first linkage arm drives the movable seat to move relative to the housing, thereby triggering the power generation module to generate a first electrical signal. When the switch button moves from the second position to the first position, the second linkage arm drives the movable seat to move relative to the housing, thereby triggering the power generation module to generate a second electrical signal.

[0005] In summary, according to the self-generating switch device of the embodiments of the present invention, when the switch button is swiveled to either the first or second position, it can drive the movable base to move relative to the housing, triggering the power generation module to generate an electrical signal to drive the corresponding device. As a result, the self-generating switch device of the embodiments of the present invention does not require a battery for power supply, thereby increasing its service life and being more environmentally friendly. It also does not require complex wiring to connect to the mains, making it easy to relocate. Furthermore, by generating an electrical signal in either the first or second position, the self-generating switch device can meet a wider range of usage requirements.

[0065] Various embodiments are described below in detail. However, these embodiments are intended for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Furthermore, some elements are omitted from the drawings in the embodiments to clearly illustrate the technical features of the present invention. The same reference numerals will be used throughout the drawings to indicate the same or similar elements.

[0066] Figure 1 This is a perspective view of the first embodiment of the self-generating switch device 1 of the present invention. Figure 2 This is an exploded perspective view of the first embodiment of the self-generating switch device 1 of the present invention. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the self-generating switch device 1 includes a housing 10, a switch button 20, a movable seat 30 and a power generation module 40. The self-generating switch device 1 is used to control the opening and closing or operation of electrical equipment.

[0067] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the housing 10 includes an assembly opening 11 and a first pivoting portion 12. In this embodiment, the housing 10 is hollow and one side is not closed to form the assembly opening 11. The first pivoting portion 12 is used for the switch button 20 to be pivoted. The first pivoting portion 12 can be set inside the housing 10 (such as Figure 2 In other embodiments, the first pivot portion 12 may be disposed outside the housing 10 and adjacent to the assembly opening 11.

[0068] In some embodiments, the housing 10 may be an integrated structure or an assembled structure. Figure 2 As shown, the housing 10 of this embodiment is an assembled structure. The housing 10 is assembled from a shell plate 101 and a base 102. For example, the shell plate 101 and the base 102 can be assembled and fixed by bonding, welding, snapping or locking.

[0069] Figure 3 for Figure 1 The cross-sectional view along line segment 3-3, Figure 4 for Figure 1Cross-sectional view along line 4-4. Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the switch button 20 includes a second pivot portion 21, a first linkage arm 22, and a second linkage arm 23. The switch button 20 is disposed in the assembly opening 11 and is pivotally mounted to the first pivot portion 12 of the housing 10 via the second pivot portion 21, enabling the switch button 20 to rotate and swing relative to the housing 10. The first linkage arm 22 and the second linkage arm 23 are located on opposite sides of the second pivot portion 21. When the switch button 20 rotates relative to the housing 10, the first linkage arm 22 and the second linkage arm 23 can move synchronously (e.g., perform a circular motion around the second pivot portion 21).

[0070] In some embodiments, the switch button 20 may be an integrated structure or an assembled structure. Figure 2 As shown, the switch button 20 of this embodiment is an assembled structure. The switch button 20 is assembled from a button cover 27 and a rotating base 28. For example, the button cover 27 and the rotating base 28 may be attached and fixed together by bonding, welding, snapping, or locking. The button cover 27 is exposed outside the housing 10 for user operation. In this embodiment, the first pivoting portion 12 is disposed on the shell plate 101 of the housing 10, and the second pivoting portion 21 is disposed on the rotating base 28 of the switch button 20. During assembly, the rotating base 28 is first pivoted to the first pivoting portion 12 on the shell plate 101 via the second pivoting portion 21. Subsequently, the button cover 27 is assembled and fixed to the rotating base 28, and the shell plate 101 is assembled and fixed to the base 102. However, the above embodiment is merely exemplary, and the switch button 20 may also be manufactured integrally (e.g., by integral injection molding or machining).

[0071] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the first linkage arm 22 and the second linkage arm 23 are integrally extended from the inner side of the switch button 20 (i.e., the side opposite to the button cover 27), but the first linkage arm 22 and the second linkage arm 23 can also be an assembled structure, which is not limited.

[0072] In some embodiments, the housing 10 may have two first pivoting portions 12, which are respectively located on opposite sides of the housing 10. The switch button 20 may have two second pivoting portions 21, which are respectively located on opposite sides of the switch button 20 to correspond to the two first pivoting portions 12, so that the switch button 20 can be more stable when rotating relative to the housing 10.

[0073] For example Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, each first pivoting portion 12 is a shaft hole, and each second pivoting portion 21 is a pivot shaft, but this is not limited. In some embodiments, each first pivoting portion 12 can be a pivot shaft, and each second pivoting portion 21 is a shaft hole.

[0074] The switch button 20 of the self-generating switch device 1 of the embodiment of the present invention can be pressed by the user to rotate and swing relative to the housing 10 between a first position and a second position about the second pivot portion 21. During the rotational movement, the switch button 20 can drive the movable base 30 to move relative to the housing 10, so that when the switch button 20 is in the first position or the second position, it can trigger the power generation module 40 to generate an electrical signal to control the electrical device to perform different actions or open and close. This is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0075] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the movable seat 30 is movably disposed within the housing 10 and located between the first linkage arm 22 and the second linkage arm 23 of the switch button 20. In this embodiment, the movable seat 30 is configured to slide linearly relative to the housing 10 (as indicated by arrow A1) when subjected to force. The movable seat 30 includes a first toggle portion 31 and a second toggle portion 32 spaced apart from each other. In some embodiments, the first toggle portion 31 and the second toggle portion 32 may be plates, ribs, or bumps.

[0076] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the movable seat 30 has a receiving groove 33, and the first toggle portion 31 and the second toggle portion 32 are located on opposite sides of the receiving groove 33 and keep a distance from each other. For example, the first toggle portion 31 and the second toggle portion 32 can be two opposite groove walls of the receiving groove 33, or the first toggle portion 31 and the second toggle portion 32 can be protrusions provided on opposite sides of the receiving groove 33 (such as Figure 4 shown).

[0077] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the power generation module 40 is disposed within the housing 10 and includes a trigger reed 41 and a generator 42 coupled to each other. That is, the trigger reed 41 can be directly or indirectly connected to the generator 42, and the trigger reed 41 is located between the first and second toggle portions 31, 32 of the movable seat 30. In this embodiment, the trigger reed 41 of the power generation module 40 is located within the receiving groove 33 of the movable seat 30 and between the first and second toggle portions 31, 32.

[0078] In some embodiments, the generator 42 may include a generator coil. When the trigger reed 41 bounces relative to the generator 42 to a first trigger position or a second trigger position, the generator coil of the generator 42 may be triggered to generate an electrical signal. For example, the generator module 40 may be a bistable switch, so that the trigger reed 41 generates a pulse current in response to the two different positions.

[0079] Figure 5 and Figure 6This is a cross-sectional view and another cross-sectional view of the switch button 20 of the present invention in the first position. Figure 7 and Figure 8 This is a cross-sectional view of the switch button 20 of the present invention in the second position and another cross-sectional view. Figures 5 to 8 As shown, when the switch button 20 is in the first position, the trigger spring 41 is located at the first trigger position (eg Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown in the embodiment, the trigger reed 41 is adjacent to the second toggle portion 32 when in the first trigger position. When the switch button 20 is pressed by the user (eg Figure 7 As shown by arrow A3) and from the first position (as shown by arrow A3) Figure 5 and Figure 6 The position shown) is swung relative to the housing 10 to a second position ( Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown in the position, since the movable seat 30 is located between the first linkage arm 22 and the second linkage arm 23 of the switch button 20, the first linkage arm 22 of the switch button 20 can push one side of the movable seat 30 during the synchronous movement, thereby driving the movable seat 30 to move relative to the housing 10, so that the first toggle portion 31 pushes the trigger spring 41 to bounce from the above-mentioned first trigger position to the second trigger position (as shown in the position). Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown in the embodiment, the trigger reed 41 is adjacent to the first toggle portion 31 when in the second trigger position, and triggers the generator 42 to generate a first electrical signal (ie, generate an instantaneous pulse current).

[0080] Similarly, please refer to Figures 5 to 8 As shown, when the switch button 20 is pressed by the user (as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown by arrow A2) and from the second position ( Figure 7 and Figure 8 shown position) moves back to the first position ( Figure 5 and Figure 6 When the second linkage arm 23 is in the position shown in the figure, the second linkage arm 23 can push the other side of the movable seat 30 during the synchronous movement to drive the movable seat 30 to move relative to the housing 10, so that the second toggle portion 32 pushes the trigger spring 41 to bounce from the second trigger position back to the first trigger position, and triggers the generator 42 to generate a second electrical signal (i.e., generate a momentary pulse current).

[0081] In summary, when the switch button 20 of the self-generating switch device 1 of the embodiment of the present invention is rotated and moved to the above-mentioned first position or second position, it can drive the movable seat 30 to move relative to the shell 10, so that the movable seat 30 pushes the trigger reed 41 of the power generation module 40 to move and triggers the power generation element 42 to generate an electrical signal (i.e., the above-mentioned first electrical signal and second electrical signal) to supply power, so as to drive the corresponding device to operate according to the electrical signal.

[0082] For example, if Figure 3 、 Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the self-generating switch device 1 may include a wireless communication module 50. The wireless communication module 50 is coupled to the power generation module 40 and wirelessly connected to one or more electrical devices (e.g., household appliances such as televisions, air conditioners, or lamps, or other commercial appliances). The wireless communication module 50 can transmit a wireless control signal based on the first electrical signal or the second electrical signal to control the corresponding electrical device. For example, the first electrical signal and the second electrical signal can provide power to the wireless communication module 50 to respectively transmit different wireless control signals to control the electrical device to perform different actions (e.g., the brightness or opening and closing of a lamp), but this is not limited to this.

[0083] Thus, the self-generating switch device 1 according to the present invention eliminates the need for battery power, extending its lifespan and enhancing environmental friendliness. It also eliminates the need for complex wiring to connect to the mains, making it easy to relocate. Furthermore, by enabling the switch button 20 to generate an electrical signal in either the first or second position, the self-generating switch device 1 can meet diverse usage requirements, such as controlling electrical equipment to perform different actions or to open or close the device.

[0084] In some embodiments, the signal transmission range of the wireless communication module 50 is determined by the type of hardware or the signal transmission method. Specifically, the wireless communication module 50 can establish a short-range or long-range communication connection to transmit data. For example, the wireless communication module 50 can be a Bluetooth module, a Wi-Fi module, a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) module, a 3G / 4G module, a Near Field Communication (NFC) module, or a Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) module, etc., although the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0085] In some embodiments, as Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the movable seat 30 has a first inclined surface 303 on one side near the first linkage arm 22, which is inclined toward the center of the movable seat 30. The first linkage arm 22 has a second inclined surface 221, which is inclined away from the center of the switch button 20. The slope of the first inclined surface 303 is greater than the slope of the second inclined surface 221, thereby preventing excessive interference between the first linkage arm 22 and the movable seat 30 during movement of the switch button 20, thereby ensuring smoother operation of the switch button 20 when pressed. The other side of the movable seat 30 and the second linkage arm 23 can also adopt the same or similar structural design as described above to prevent excessive interference between the second linkage arm 23 and the movable seat 30 during movement of the switch button 20. This will not be further described here.

[0086] For example, the switch button 20 has a swing angle R between the first position and the second position (eg Figure 5 As shown, for example, 10 degrees to 40 degrees), as Figure 4 As shown, the included angle between the first inclined surface 303 and the central axis C1 of the movable seat 30 can be the aforementioned swing angle R, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, the included angle between the second inclined surface 221 and the central axis C2 of the switch button 20 is half of the aforementioned swing angle R, so that the slope of the first inclined surface 303 is greater than the slope of the second inclined surface 221 .

[0087] In some embodiments, the self-generating switch device 1 may be provided with a limiting structure to limit the switch button 20 to the first position and the second position, wherein the limiting structure may have the following various implementations.

[0088] like Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment discloses a first limiting structure. The first limiting structure is that the switch button 20 has a first stop surface 24 and a second stop surface 25. The first stop surface 24 and the second stop surface 25 are inclined surfaces and are located on the button cover 27. When the switch button 20 is in the first position (such as Figure 5 As shown), the first stop surface 24 abuts against the edge of the assembly opening 11 to achieve a limiting effect. At this time, the angle between the second stop surface 25 and the edge of the assembly opening 11 is the above-mentioned swing angle R. Therefore, when the switch button 20 swings the above-mentioned swing angle R and moves to the second position (as shown), the first stop surface 24 abuts against the edge of the assembly opening 11 to achieve a limiting effect. At this time, the angle between the second stop surface 25 and the edge of the assembly opening 11 is the above-mentioned swing angle R. Figure 7 As shown), the second stop surface 25 can abut against the edge of the assembly opening 11 to achieve the limiting effect. At this time, the angle between the first stop surface 24 and the edge of the assembly opening 11 is the above-mentioned swing angle R.

[0089] like Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment discloses a second limiting structure. The second limiting structure is that the first pivoting portion 12 of the housing 10 is an axial hole and has a hole edge 13. The hole edge 13 has a first abutting portion 131, a first stopping edge 132 and a second stopping edge 133. The first stopping edge 132 and the second stopping edge 133 are oblique edges and are respectively connected to the opposite sides of the first abutting portion 131 to form a V-shaped edge. The second pivoting portion 21 of the switch button 20 is a pivot and has a second abutting portion 211, a third stopping edge 212 and a fourth stopping edge 213. The third stopping edge 212 and the fourth stopping edge 213 are also oblique edges and are respectively connected to the opposite sides of the second abutting portion 211 to form a V-shaped edge. The second abutting portion 211 is pivoted against the first abutting portion 131. When the switch button 20 is in the first position (as shown in FIG. 1 ), the first pivoting portion 12 of the housing 10 is an axial hole and has a hole edge 13. The hole edge 13 has a first abutting portion 131, a first stopping edge 132 and a second stopping edge 133. The first stopping edge 132 and the second stopping edge 133 are also oblique edges and are respectively connected to the opposite sides of the second abutting portion 211 to form a V-shaped edge. The second abutting portion 211 is pivoted against the first abutting portion 131. When the switch button 20 is in the first position (as shown in FIG. 1 ), the second pivoting ... Figure 5As shown), the third stop edge 212 abuts against the first stop edge 132 to achieve the limiting effect. At this time, the angle between the fourth stop edge 213 and the second stop edge 133 is the above-mentioned swing angle R. Therefore, when the switch button 20 swings the above-mentioned swing angle R and moves to the second position (as shown), the third stop edge 212 abuts against the first stop edge 132 to achieve the limiting effect. At this time, the angle between the fourth stop edge 213 and the second stop edge 133 is the above-mentioned swing angle R. Figure 7 As shown), the fourth stop edge 213 can abut against the second stop edge 133 to achieve the limiting effect. At this time, the angle between the third stop edge 212 and the first stop edge 132 is the above-mentioned swing angle R.

[0090] The self-generating switch device 1 of the embodiment of the present invention may be provided with the first and second limiting structures to enhance the limiting effect, but this is not limiting. In some embodiments, the self-generating switch device 1 may be provided with only one of the first and second limiting structures.

[0091] For example Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a first limiting seat 14 and a second limiting seat 15 are further provided in the shell 10 for limiting the movable seat 30, wherein the first limiting seat 14 and the second limiting seat 15 are respectively located on opposite sides of the movable seat 30, the first limiting seat 14 is provided with a first guide member 141, and the second limiting seat 15 is provided with a second guide member 151, and a third guide member 301 and a fourth guide member 302 are respectively provided on opposite sides of the movable seat 30, the third guide member 301 is movably assembled on the first guide member 141, and the fourth guide member 302 is movably assembled on the second guide member 151, so that the movable seat 30 can be stable without shaking or displacement during the movement relative to the shell 10.

[0092] Continue, in Figure 2 and Figure 4 In the embodiment, the first guide member 141 and the second guide member 151 are guide slots extending along the moving direction of the movable base 30, and the third guide member 301 and the fourth guide member 302 are sliders slidably mounted on the first guide member 141 and the second guide member 151, respectively. However, this is not limiting. In some embodiments, the first guide member 141 and the second guide member 151 can be sliders, and the third guide member 301 and the fourth guide member 302 can be guide slots extending along the moving direction of the movable base 30.

[0093] like Figure 4As shown, in this embodiment, the first position-limiting seat 14 is further provided with a first anti-slip member 142, the second position-limiting seat 15 is provided with a second anti-slip member 152, the third guide member 301 is limited between the first anti-slip member 142 and the first guide member 141, and the fourth guide member 302 is limited between the second anti-slip member 152 and the second guide member 151. In some embodiments, the first anti-slip member 142 and the second anti-slip member 152 can be plates, ribs, or bumps, and are respectively blocked on the third guide member 301 and the fourth guide member 302 to prevent the third guide member 301 and the fourth guide member 302 from separating from the first guide member 141 and the second guide member 151, thereby strengthening the function of the position-limiting movable seat 30.

[0094] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the first limiting seat 14 is further provided with a first stop portion 143, and the second limiting seat 15 is further provided with a second stop portion 153. When the switch button 20 is in the first position (such as Figure 6 As shown), the fourth guide member 302 corresponds to the second stop portion 153 to achieve the function of limiting the movable seat 30, when the switch button 20 is in the second position (as shown Figure 8 As shown in FIG, the third guide member 301 abuts against the first stop portion 143 to limit the movable seat 30. In some embodiments, the first stop portion 143 and the second stop portion 153 can be plates, ribs, or bumps.

[0095] In some embodiments, when the switch button 20 is in the first position, the third guide member 301 can abut against the first stop portion 143, and when the switch button 20 is in the second position, the fourth guide member 302 can abut against the second stop portion 153. This depends on the positions of the first stop portion 143 and the second stop portion 153, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0096] Figure 9 This is a cross-sectional view of a second embodiment of the self-generating switch device 2 of the present invention. Figure 10 FIG. 2 is another cross-sectional view of the second embodiment of the self-generating switch device 2 of the present invention. Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the difference between the self-generating switch device 2 of this embodiment and the self-generating switch device 1 of the first embodiment mentioned above is at least that the switch button 20' of the self-generating switch device 2 of this embodiment is integrally formed, and the self-generating switch device 2 limits the switch button 20' to the above-mentioned first position and second position through a third limiting structure. The third limiting structure is that an elastic member 26 is provided at the bottom of the switch button 20', and a limiting seat 16 is provided in the shell 10, wherein the limiting seat 16 is fixed in the shell 10 and is located between the switch button 20' and the movable seat 30. The limiting seat 16 has a first limiting groove 161 and a second limiting groove 162 that maintain a distance from each other. When the switch button 20' is in the first position (such as Figure 9As shown), the elastic member 26 elastically engages with the first limiting groove 161 to achieve the limiting effect. When the switch button 20' is in the second position (as shown Figure 10 As shown in FIG, the elastic member 26 is elastically buckled in the second limiting groove 162 to achieve the limiting effect. In some embodiments, the elastic member 26 can be an elastic body such as an elastic telescopic rod, a spring or a spring.

[0097] In summary, according to the self-generating switch device of the embodiment of the present invention, when the switch button is swiveled to the first or second position, it can drive the movable seat to move relative to the housing, causing the movable seat to push the trigger reed of the power generation module to move and trigger the generator to generate an electrical signal to power the corresponding device. As a result, the self-generating switch device of the embodiment of the present invention does not require a battery for power supply, thereby increasing its service life and being more environmentally friendly. It also does not require the installation of complex wiring to connect to the mains, making it easy to change its location.
