Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of switches and relates to a micro switch with adjustable acting force. Background Art
[0002] Micro switch is a kind of switch widely used in control application field, with simple structure and reliable use. In order to make the common contact and normally open contact and normally closed contact switch reliably after the top pin applies force to the beryllium copper shrapnel arm, the end face of the shrapnel and the fixing point of the shrapnel arm should be in the same horizontal plane. After the top pin exerts force on the beryllium copper shrapnel arm, the beryllium copper shrapnel can provide 0.7-0.9N force to make the common contact contact with the normally closed contact.
[0003] When the existing products are used in places with external impact, the beryllium copper shrapnel cannot provide greater force to drive the common contact to the normally closed contact reliably. When the common contact contacts the normally open contact, the hardness of the beryllium copper shrapnel arm is not enough to withstand the force applied by the ejector. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the shortcomings of the prior art and to provide a micro switch with adjustable force.
[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical scheme: a micro switch with adjustable force, comprising a beryllium copper spring, a fulcrum bracket, a normally open contact, a normally closed contact and a common end contact, a common end contact is provided at one end of the beryllium copper spring, a beryllium copper spring arm for applying force by a pin is provided at the other end of the beryllium copper spring, both sides of the beryllium copper spring arm are spring end faces, the end of the beryllium copper spring arm is fixedly arranged between two fulcrum brackets, the two spring end faces are against the fulcrum card slots of one end face of the corresponding fulcrum bracket, a normally closed contact is provided above the common end contact, and a normally open contact is provided below the common end contact; The fulcrum bracket includes a transverse section and a vertical section. The transverse section is connected to the vertical section toward the end face of the spring sheet to form an L shape. The two fulcrum brackets are arranged in parallel. The end of the beryllium copper spring sheet is fixed to the end of the arm by a connecting plate and bolts between the two transverse sections. The vertical section is provided with a plurality of vertically arranged fulcrum slots toward the end face of the spring sheet. The end face of the spring sheet selects the corresponding fulcrum slot according to the elastic force actually required to be provided.
[0006] Furthermore, a reinforcing arm is provided above the end of the beryllium copper shrapnel arm to cover the point where the force of the beryllium copper shrapnel arm is applied by the ejector.
[0007] Furthermore, the reinforcing arm is sleeved on the end of the beryllium copper shrapnel arm.
[0008] Furthermore, one end of the reinforcing arm is fixed to the end of the large arm of the beryllium copper shrapnel.
[0009] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: first, a vertically arranged fulcrum slot is provided at one end of the fulcrum bracket that contacts the end face of the spring sheet, and the position of the fulcrum slot that contacts the end face of the spring sheet can be adjusted according to the elastic force provided in actual needs.
[0010] Secondly, a reinforcing arm is arranged on the outside of the end of the beryllium copper shrapnel arm. The ejector applies force on the reinforcing arm, and the reinforcing arm applies force on the beryllium copper shrapnel arm, thereby changing the force point and force stroke of the beryllium copper shrapnel arm. There is a force large enough to separate the common end contact from the normally closed contact and to make the common end contact contact with the normally open contact.

The common end contact 13 is provided at one end of the beryllium copper shrapnel 1, and the other end of the beryllium copper shrapnel 1 is a beryllium copper shrapnel arm 11 on which a pin 5 applies force. Both sides of the beryllium copper shrapnel arm 11 are shrapnel end faces 12. The end of the beryllium copper shrapnel arm 11 is fixedly arranged between two fulcrum brackets 2, and the two shrapnel end faces 12 are against the fulcrum card slot 21 of one end face of the corresponding fulcrum bracket. A normally closed contact 4 is provided above the common end contact 13, and a normally open contact 3 is provided below the common end contact 13.
