These are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present application.
[0045] In the description of this application, it is also necessary to explain that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "disposed" and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two elements.

For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present application can be understood by specific circumstances.
[0047] The inventor of the present application has conducted an in-depth study on the conventional rocker switch structure and found that the overall space from the rocker to the back of the switch of the conventional rocker switch structure can usually be divided into three layers of space, wherein the first layer of space is the button layer space corresponding to the rocker, the second layer of space is the transition layer space, and the third layer of space is the terminal layer space. Among them, the button layer space usually adds an additional driving member on the basis of the rocker to reasonably reduce the dialing angle of the rocker (button) through the added driving member; the transition layer space usually reserves a large enough space to ensure that the transition can move under the driving action of the rocker; the terminal layer space is provided with a wiring terminal to connect the live wire input end and the live wire output end, and the transition piece cooperates with the rocker structure to realize the line conduction or line disconnection between the wiring terminals.
[0048] Therefore, in essence, the existing rocker switch structure actually has an obvious problem of space waste when deploying the transition piece, the terminal block and the rocker structure, resulting in a relatively thick overall thickness of the corresponding switch structure and a relatively serious loss of production materials, and is unable to provide users with an ultra-thin switch appearance and usage experience.
[0049] To this end, the embodiments of the present application solve the above-mentioned problems by providing a switch structure, so as to optimize the spatial arrangement of the mechanical transmission structure inside the switch, make full use of the setting space of the transition piece to deploy the on-off mechanism, and realize the mechanical transmission effect between the transition piece and the on-off mechanism, so as to improve the problem of switch space waste, reduce the switch thickness, and reduce the production materials and assembly difficulty of the switch structure, so as to provide users with an ultra-thin switch appearance and usage experience.

The male buckles 132 and the female buckles 133 are snap-fitted one by one so that the bottom cover 13 is snapped onto the fixing frame assembly 12.
[0063] Please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8In this embodiment, the swinging member 161 is arranged between the transition component and the panel 11; specifically, the transition component 14 is arranged between the swinging member 161 and the bottom cover 13, and the swinging member 161 is located on the side of the transition component 14 away from the bottom cover 13, that is, the swinging member 161 is located between the transition component 14 and the panel 11. In this way, by optimizing the spatial arrangement of the mechanical transmission structure inside the switch structure 10, the swinging member 161 and the transition component are roughly distributed in the same plane position, that is, by arranging the swinging member 161 between the transition component and the panel 11, the spatial reuse effect of the transition component 14 layer space and the terminal layer space is achieved, which is conducive to reducing the overall thickness of the switch structure 10, and is convenient for providing the user with an ultra-thin appearance and use experience of the switch; moreover, by reducing the thickness of the switch structure 10, the size of at least some of the components in the switch structure 10 is reduced, thereby reducing the production materials of the switch structure 10 and reducing the difficulty of assembly.

When the panel 11 swings under the action of an external force, the panel 11 can drive the transition piece 14 to drive the pin assembly 15 to move, and drive the swing piece 161 to swing through the pin assembly 15, that is, the swing piece 161 drives the moving contact 164 to contact or separate with the static contact 165.
[0065] Further, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 8 The bottom cover 13 is provided with a mounting hole 131, and the transition piece 14 is connected with an assembly shaft 144, which is rotatably plugged into and matched with the mounting hole 131 so that the transition piece 14 and the bottom cover 13 are hinged to each other, wherein the transition piece 14 can rotate relative to the bottom cover 13 under the drive of the panel 11.
[0066] Of course, in other embodiments, the bottom cover 13 is connected with an assembly shaft 144 , the transition piece 14 is provided with a mounting hole 131 , and the assembly shaft 144 is rotatably plugged into and matched with the mounting hole 131 .

[0068] For further information, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 8 The button also includes a first transmission member, which can be a driving rib 111. The panel 11 is transmitted and matched with the transition member 14 through the driving rib 111. When the panel 11 is pressed, the driving rib 111 can be driven to move synchronously; the fixing frame assembly 12 is also provided with an avoidance hole. After the end of the driving rib 111 away from the panel 11 passes through the avoidance hole, it is plugged and matched with the transition member 14, wherein the driving rib 111 can drive the transition member 14 to rotate.
[0069] Furthermore, in order to effectively simplify the structural composition of the switch structure 10, reduce the production materials and assembly difficulty of the switch structure 10, and further reduce the overall thickness of the switch structure 10, please refer to Figure 8 The transition piece 14 is provided with an assembly groove 141 , and the driving rib 111 is plugged into and matched with the assembly groove 141 .
[0070] Optionally, the driving rib 111 is fixedly connected to the panel 11 and plugged with the transition piece 14; the connection method between the driving rib 111 and the panel 11 includes but is not limited to integral molding and bonding. Of course, in other embodiments, the driving rib 111 can also be connected to the transition piece 14 and plugged with the panel 11.
[0071] Optionally, the assembly groove 141 can be, but is not limited to: a semi-enclosed U-shaped groove, a closed U-shaped groove, a semi-enclosed right-angle groove, a closed right-angle groove, a semi-enclosed trapezoidal groove, a closed trapezoidal groove, etc.
[0072] Please refer to Fig. 9 The transition piece 14 includes a first assembly portion 145, a second assembly portion 146 and a third assembly portion 147 which are connected in sequence. The side of the first assembly portion 145 which is away from the second assembly portion 146 and the side of the third assembly portion 147 which is away from the second assembly portion 146 are both connected with an assembly shaft 144, and the driving rib 111 is in transmission cooperation with the first assembly portion 145; the ball assembly 15 is arranged at the third assembly portion 147. In this way, the ball assembly 15 and the driving rib 111 can be arranged side by side (arranged at the same layer), so as to effectively reduce the thickness of the switch structure 10.
[0073] For further information, please refer to Fig.10 The third assembly part 147 is provided with a plug hole 142, and the first assembly part 145 is provided with an assembly groove 141, which has a first notch 1451 and a second notch 1452, the first notch 1451 faces the panel 11, and the second notch 1452 faces away from the second assembly part 146; the driving rib 111 is inserted into the assembly groove 141 from the first notch 1451. Such a configuration improves the convenience of assembly.
[0074] In order to further reduce the overall thickness of the switch structure 10 and improve the stability of the pin assembly 15 assembled on the transition piece 14; please refer to Figure 5 The ball assembly 15 is plugged into the transition piece 14 ; specifically, the transition piece 14 is provided with a plug hole 142 , and the ball assembly 15 is plugged into the plug hole 142 .
[0075] For further information, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 8 , the direction in which the driving rib 111 is plugged into the transition piece 14 is the same as the direction in which the pin assembly 15 is plugged into the transition piece 14; wherein, the opening direction of the insertion hole 142 is the same as the opening direction of the assembly slot 141, and the opening directions of the insertion hole 142 and the assembly slot 141 are both toward the panel 11. When the driving rib 111 moves with the panel 11, the driving rib 111 will abut against the groove wall of the assembly slot 141 during the rotation process, so that the transition piece 14 is pushed by the driving rib 111 and rotates relative to the bottom cover 13, and drives the pin assembly 15 to move, and drives the swinging member 161 to swing through the pin assembly 15. Configuring the direction in which the driving rib 111 is plugged into the transition piece 14 to be the same as the direction in which the pin assembly 15 is plugged into the transition piece 14 can ensure a compact structural design between the panel 11, the transition piece 14, the pin assembly 15 and the swinging member 161, which is conducive to ensuring that the overall thickness of the switch structure 10 is reduced.
[0076] In order to ensure that the driving rib 111 can reliably drive the transition piece 14 to rotate when it moves in the assembly groove 141, please refer to Figure 8 The two opposite groove walls of the assembly groove 141 are connected with limiting protrusions 143. The limiting protrusions 143 of the two groove walls can cooperate with each other to limit the movable range of the driving rib 111 in the assembly groove 141. When the driving rib 111 moves with the panel 11, the driving rib 111 can abut against or separate from the limiting protrusions 143, so that the transition piece 14 receives the driving force from the driving rib 111 through the abutment between the driving rib 111 and the limiting protrusions 143 and rotates.
[0077] For further information, please refer to Fig.10 The limiting protrusion 143 has a circular arc protrusion surface. When the panel 11 swings under the action of external force, the panel 11 can drive the driving rib 111 to swing, and the driving rib 111 can slide with the circular arc protrusion surface to push the transition piece 14 to swing. In this way, the smoothness and reliability of the driving rib 111 driving the transition piece 14 to swing are ensured, and the problem of jamming during the driving process is avoided.
[0078] Of course, in other embodiments, the transition piece 14 may also be connected to the transition piece 14 through a transmission assembly such as a transmission gear and a transmission rod.
[0079] Optionally, the extension direction of the rotation axis of the transition piece 14, the swing axis direction of the swing piece 161 and the extension direction of the rotation axis of the panel 11 are parallel to each other, so as to ensure that the transition piece 14 swings smoothly and reliably under the drive of the panel 11, and smoothly and reliably drives the swing piece 161 to drive the moving contact 164 to contact or separate from the static contact 165.
[0080] To ensure that the swing member 161 can be reliably assembled on the side of the transition member 14 away from the bottom cover 13, and to ensure that the swing member 161 can maintain a relatively stable positional relationship with the transition member 14, so as to ensure that the swing member 161 can reliably swing under the drive of the transition member 14; please refer to Fig.11 and Fig.13 The fixing frame assembly 12 is provided with a limiting groove 122 matching the on-off mechanism 16 so that the on-off mechanism 16 can be accommodated through the limiting groove 122, that is, the connecting terminal 162 and the swing member 161 can be assembled in the limiting groove 122; by being snap-connected to the bottom cover 13 of the fixing frame assembly 12, the stability of the on-off mechanism 16 assembled on the fixing frame assembly 12 can also be ensured.
[0081] It should be understood that the chamber between the aforementioned fixing frame assembly 12 and the bottom cover 13 may be an assembly space formed between the limiting groove 122 and the bottom cover 13 .
[0082] Of course, in other embodiments, only one of the connection terminal 162 and the swing member 161 may be disposed in the limiting groove 122 .
[0083] Please refer to Fig.12 In this embodiment, the swing member 161 can be connected to the live wire input end, and the terminal 162 is used to connect the live wire output end. A moving contact 164 is installed on the swing member 161, and a static contact 165 is installed on the terminal 162. When the swing member 161 is connected to the live wire input end and the terminal 162 is connected to the live wire output end, when the moving contact 164 is in contact with the static contact 165, the line between the live wire input end and the live wire output end is connected, and when the moving contact 164 is separated from the static contact 165, the line between the live wire input end and the live wire output end is disconnected.
[0084] Furthermore, the pin assembly 15 is mounted on the transition piece 14 and elastically abuts against the swinging piece 161. When the pin assembly 15 rotates along with the transition piece 14, the pin assembly 15 will slide on the swinging piece 161, that is, the elastic abutting position of the pin assembly 15 on the swinging piece 161 will change, so that the pin assembly 15 can be used to push the swinging piece 161 to swing around the fixed swing axis, thereby driving the moving contact 164 to contact or separate from the static contact 165, thereby achieving the conduction effect or disconnection effect of the circuit.
[0085] Furthermore, the number of moving contacts 164 in the switch structure 10 is equal to the number of stationary contacts 165; wherein, a moving contact 164 is respectively provided at both ends of the swinging member 161, and the on-off mechanism 16 includes two connecting terminals 162 and two stationary contacts 165, and the two stationary contacts 165 and the two connecting terminals 162 are connected one-to-one, and then the two moving contacts 164 correspond one-to-one to the two stationary contacts 165.
[0086] Alternatively, in other embodiments, the number of moving contacts 164 in the switch structure 10 is greater than the number of stationary contacts 165. For example, a moving contact 164 is provided at each end of the swinging member 161, and the switching mechanism 16 includes a connecting terminal 162 and a stationary contact 165. The switch structure 10 can only use one of the two moving contacts 164 close to the stationary contact 165 to achieve contact or separation between the moving contact 164 and the stationary contact 165.
[0087] Optionally, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 The pin assembly 15 includes a pin 151 and an elastic member 152. Both the pin 151 and the elastic member 152 are inserted into the insertion hole 142, and the elastic member 152 is located between the pin 151 and the bottom wall of the insertion hole 142; the end of the pin 151 away from the elastic member 152 abuts against the swing member 161. The elastic member 152 includes but is not limited to a spring and an elastic rubber sleeve.
[0088] The connection methods between the elastic member 152 and the pin 151 and the bottom wall of the insertion hole 142 include but are not limited to snap connection and bonding.
[0089] Optionally, see Fig.12 The swinging member 161 is a seesaw, which may include a seesaw protrusion 168, wherein the seesaw protrusion 168 is located in the middle part of the swinging member 161, the seesaw protrusion 168 protrudes in the direction close to the fixing frame assembly 12, and the recessed surface of the seesaw protrusion 168 toward the bottom cover 13 abuts against the end of the ball 151 away from the elastic member 152. When the transition member 14 drives the ball assembly 15 to swing, the ball 151 can slide on the recessed surface of the seesaw protrusion 168 toward the bottom cover 13 to push the swinging member 161 to swing.
[0090] Optionally, the on-off mechanism 16 further includes a support member 163, which, when assembled in the limiting groove 122 of the fixing frame assembly 12, maintains a relatively static state with the fixing frame assembly 12; the side of the swing member 161 facing the panel 11 is swingably plugged with the support member 163, and the side of the swing member 161 facing away from the panel 11 is transmission-matched with the transition assembly. By plugging the swing member 161 with the support member 163, it can be ensured that the swing member 161 reliably rotates around the fixed axis, thereby ensuring the reliability of the swing member 161 driving the moving contact 164 to contact or separate with the static contact 165.
[0091] Furthermore, a plurality of supporting members 169 are connected to the protruding surface of the seesaw protrusion 168 facing the fixing frame assembly 12 at intervals, and the supporting member 163 includes a contact bending portion 167, and the contact bending portion 167 is supported and matched with the plurality of supporting members 169, so that the bent edge of the contact bending portion 167 can be used as the axis of the swing member 161, that is, the swing member 161 can swing around the bent edge of the contact bending portion 167. With the support of the contact bending portion 167, the stability of the swing member 161 during swinging can be ensured.
[0092] Furthermore, the supporting member 169 is provided with a supporting groove, and the supporting member 163 is inserted into the supporting groove to ensure the stability of the assembly structure between the supporting member 163 and the swinging member 161, and to ensure that the swinging member 161 can reliably swing around the abutting bending portion 167 of the supporting member 163. The supporting groove can be V-shaped, U-shaped, etc., which is not specifically limited here.
[0093] The assembly process of the switch structure 10 of this embodiment includes: installing the pin assembly 15 on the transition piece 14, and then hinge-assembling the transition piece 14 on the bottom cover 13; assembling the on-off mechanism 16 into the limit groove 122 of the fixing frame assembly 12, and then snapping the bottom cover 13 into the fixing frame assembly 12, and assembling the panel 11 on the fixing frame assembly 12, and making the driving rib 111 plug and match with the transition piece 14. The switch structure 10 can realize modular assembly, which is conducive to simplifying the assembly process and improving efficiency.
[0094] In summary, the switch structure 10 of the present invention can reduce the thickness of the switch structure 10 by optimizing the spatial arrangement between the transition component and the on-off mechanism 16, thereby providing the user with an ultra-thin switch appearance and usage experience. At the same time, it can reduce the production materials of the switch structure 10 and reduce the difficulty of assembly.

Any person skilled in the art who is familiar with the present technical field can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present application, which should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
