It should be noted that the description of these embodiments is used to help understand the utility model, but does not constitute a limitation of the utility model.

[0023] Example:

[0024] like Figure 1-7 As shown, this embodiment provides a novel micro switch, including a shell 1, a glue injection groove 14 is provided in the center of the top of the shell 1, a circle of glue flange 11 is provided around the inner wall of the glue injection groove 14, a plurality of wedge-shaped grooves 111 are provided on the surface of the glue flange 11, and fixing holes 12 are provided at the four corners of the glue flange 11. The top of the shell 1 is fixedly connected with soft glue 2 by secondary glue injection molding, and the soft glue 2 is completely filled into each wedge-shaped groove 111 and each fixing hole 12. A PCB board 4 is fixedly installed inside the shell 1, and a touch switch 3 and a wiring harness 6 are welded on the top of the PCB board 4. The button of the touch switch 3 is located below the soft glue 2, and the bottom of the shell 1 is encapsulated by a potting glue 5.

[0025] Specifically, a circle of glue flange 11 is provided on the inner side of the glue injection groove 14 of the shell 1, and a plurality of wedge-shaped grooves 111 are provided at intervals to increase the contact area and the connection structure between the shell 1 and the soft glue 2, thereby ensuring that the soft glue 2 is firmly and reliably connected to the shell 1 after being poured onto the top of the shell 1 for the second time. Since the switch saves a pressing plate in the process, the structure is simpler than that of a conventional switch, and the volume and height are lower than those of a conventional switch. Therefore, in order to make the connection between the soft glue 2 and the shell 1 more firmly, fixing holes 12 are provided at the four corners of the connecting glue flange. After the soft glue 2 is injected and cured, four columns of soft glue 2 are formed which are more closely connected to the shell 1, thereby further strengthening the fixing of the soft glue 2 and the shell 1, effectively preventing the soft glue 2 from falling off, and improving the waterproof sealing performance of the switch.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment of the utility model, further, a clamping claw 15 is provided on the top of the inner wall of the shell 1 and near the four corners, a positioning column 16 is provided in the middle of the two clamping claws 15 on the same side, and a positioning groove 41 is provided in the middle of the left and right ends of the PCB board 4. The PCB board 4 is positioned with the shell 1 through the two positioning grooves 41 and the two positioning columns 16.

[0027] Specifically, the positioning column 16 structure inside the housing 1 cooperates with the PCB positioning hole to ensure consistent installation position and product performance; at the same time, four clamping claws 15 are designed, and the assembly strength is ensured by the inward direction of the clamping claws 15. Therefore, the processing difficulty of the PCB board 4 can be reduced from the structural point of view, and the assembly accuracy of the switch is guaranteed, which is beneficial to further improve the product quality.

[0028] In a preferred embodiment of the utility model, further, a circle of sealing protrusions 21 are provided along the four edges of the bottom of the soft glue 2, and the sealing protrusions 21 are tightly attached to the top of the PCB board 4. By providing the sealing protrusions 21, it can cooperate with the PCB board 4 through the arc surface at the bottom to reduce the position requirements of assembly, thereby ensuring the consistent sealing position after assembly.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, further, glue outlets 13 are provided at the four corners of the glue injection groove 14. By providing four glue outlets 13, it is avoided that the glue outlets 13 affect the integrity of the soft glue 2, which is beneficial to exhaust processing during injection molding.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, further, a wire groove 17 is opened on one side of the bottom of the housing 1 , and the wire harness 6 passes through the wire groove 17 and is led to the outside of the housing 1 .

[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention.
