[0039] The utility model embodiment provides a key assembly, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The key assembly includes a key body 1, a to-be-adjusted part 2, a fixing part 3, a connecting bearing 4 and a supporting part 5;

[0040] The adjustable part 2 includes an adjusting shaft 21 and a fixing part 22, the button body 1 is connected to the adjusting shaft 21 of the adjustable part 2, and the fixing part 22 of the adjustable part 2 is connected to the fixing part 3; the button body 1 is used to drive the adjusting shaft 21 to move along the axial direction of the adjusting shaft 21 and drive the adjusting shaft 21 to rotate around the axis of the adjusting shaft 21 under the action of external force.

[0041] The inner ring of the connecting bearing 4 is connected to the key body 1 .

[0042] The support member 5 is connected to the outer ring of the connecting bearing 4 ; the support member 5 is used for abutting and cooperating with the fixing member 3 .

[0043] In this embodiment, the adjustable part 2 includes but is not limited to signal conversion devices such as encoders on electronic equipment or electrical equipment; taking the adjustable part 2 as an example, the fixed part 22 is the main part of the encoder, the adjustment shaft 21 is the input shaft of the encoder, and the adjustment shaft 21 can move along the axis direction of the adjustment shaft 21 and drive the adjustment shaft 21 to rotate around the axis of the adjustment shaft 21. The fixed part 3 may include a main board 31 of the device and a shell 32 for fixing the main board 31. The fixed part 22 of the adjustable part 2 may be fixed to the main board 31 by welding or the like. The key body 1 may be fixed to the adjustment shaft 21 of the adjustable part 2 by locking, interference fit, snap connection, pin connection, bonding or the like.

[0044] A rotating structure such as a ball or needle is provided between the inner ring and the outer ring of the connecting bearing 4, and the inner ring and the outer ring can realize relative rotation through the rotating structure, and the friction during the rotation process can be reduced through the rotating structure; the rotation axis of the connecting bearing 4 is coaxially arranged with the rotation axis of the adjusting shaft 21. A shaft structure can be provided on the key body 1, and the shaft structure can be inserted into the inner ring of the connecting bearing 4 and have an interference fit with the inner ring, so that the key body 1 can rotate with the inner ring. A through hole structure or a concave cavity structure can be provided on the support 5, wherein the cross-sectional profile of the hole body part in the through hole structure should be adapted to the outer ring profile of the connecting bearing 4, and the cross-sectional profile of the cavity part in the concave cavity structure should also be adapted to the outer ring profile of the connecting bearing 4, so that the outer ring of the connecting bearing 4 can achieve an interference fit with the hole body part of the through hole structure or the cavity part of the concave cavity structure through a hole-shaft fit. Based on the above structural setting, the relative rotation between the inner ring and the outer ring of the connecting bearing 4 can ensure that the rotation of the key body 1 is not affected by the support member 5; even if the support member 5 abuts against other structural members and cannot rotate, the key body 1 can still rotate around the axis.

[0045] Diagrammatically, the key body 1 is located above the support member 5, and a reserved gap 10 can be set between the key body 1 and the support member 5 to ensure that the key body 1 can rotate relative to the support member 5 without friction and scratching with the support member 5; the support member 5 can be provided with connecting structures such as ribs and buckles. When the support member 5 moves up and down relative to the fixing member 3 to a preset position along the axial direction of the adjusting shaft 21 to a preset position, the connecting structure is used to abut and cooperate with the fixing member 3 to prevent the support member 5 from continuing to move, thereby preventing the connecting bearing 4 and the key body 1 from continuing to move, and playing a limiting role on the key body 1; more specifically, the fixing member 3 includes a main board 31 of the device and a shell 32 for fixing the main board 31, and the fixing portion 22 of the adjustable member 2 is connected to the main board 31. When the support member 5 moves to a preset position in a direction close to or away from the main board 31, the connecting structure on the support member 5 abuts and cooperates with the shell 32, thereby preventing the support member 5 from continuing to approach or move away from the main board 31, thereby preventing the connecting bearing 4 and the key body 1 from continuing to move, and playing a limiting role on the key body 1. As described above, by utilizing the relative rotation between the inner ring and the outer ring of the connecting bearing 4, when the connecting structure on the supporting member 5 abuts against the housing 32 and the supporting member 5 cannot rotate, the key body 1 can still rotate around the axis.

[0046] In actual operation, the user can drive the adjustment shaft 21 of the adjustable member 2 to move along the axis direction of the adjustment shaft 21 by pressing or pulling the key body 1, so that the signal input can be realized by the axial movement of the adjustment shaft 21; the user can also drive the adjustment shaft 21 of the adjustable member 2 to rotate around the axis of the adjustment shaft 21 by twisting the key body 1, so that the signal input can be realized by the rotation of the adjustment shaft 21. In the process of the user pressing or pulling the key body 1, the connecting bearing 4 and the supporting member 5 will move synchronously with the key body 1; when the key body 1 moves to a preset position, for example, when the user presses the key body 1 to move a certain distance, the supporting member 5 can abut against the fixing member 3 to prevent the key body 1 from continuing to move along the pressing direction; similarly, when the user pulls the key body 1 to move a certain distance, the supporting member 5 can abut against the fixing member 3 to prevent the key body 1 from continuing to move along the pulling direction; this can play a role in limiting the movement stroke of the key body 1, and avoid the corresponding device damage caused by the movement of the key body 1 exceeding the preset range. Since the inner ring of the connecting bearing 4 can rotate relative to the outer ring, the key body 1 can also rotate relative to the supporting member 5 with the help of the connecting bearing 4. In this way, when the supporting member 5 and the fixing member 3 are already in abutment and mating state, that is, when the supporting member 5 cannot rotate, the key body 1 can still drive the adjusting shaft 21 of the adjustable member 2 to rotate under the user's twisting action.

[0047] Based on the above arrangement, the user can rotate the button body 1 while pressing or pulling the button body 1, and the pressing or pulling operation and the rotating operation do not interfere with each other. This increases the freedom of movement of the button body 1 and improves the applicability of the button body 1. The adjustment shaft 21 of the adjustable part 2 can be driven by the button body 1 to move axially or rotate around the axial direction, so as to realize signal input with the help of the axial movement and rotation of the adjustment shaft 21, thereby meeting the diversified control needs of the equipment.

[0048] Optionally, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The key assembly includes a connecting seat 6 ; the connecting seat 6 is connected to the adjusting shaft 21 , and the key body 1 is connected to the connecting seat 6 .

[0049] The button body 1 has a first buckle portion 121, and the connecting seat 6 has a second buckle portion 61, wherein the first buckle portion 121 is interference-fitted with the inner ring of the connecting bearing 4 through a hole-shaft matching method, or the second buckle portion 61 is interference-fitted with the inner ring of the connecting bearing 4 through a hole-shaft matching method, or the first buckle portion 121 and the second buckle portion 61 are as follows Figure 2 As shown, it is interference fit with the inner ring of the connecting bearing 4 through the hole-shaft matching method; in addition, the first buckle part 121 abuts against one side end face of the inner ring of the connecting bearing 4, and the second buckle part 61 abuts against the other side end face of the inner ring of the connecting bearing 4.

[0050] Specifically, the first buckle portion 121 can be configured as follows: Figure 2 The stepped structure shown in the figure has a first layer segment with a smaller width or a smaller diameter in the stepped structure that can be plugged and fitted into the inner ring of the connecting bearing 4 from top to bottom, and a second layer segment with a larger width or a larger diameter in the stepped structure has a lower end face that can abut against the upper end face of the inner ring of the connecting bearing 4. It can be understood that the above-mentioned first layer segment can be set as an axial structure that is compatible with the inner ring of the connecting bearing 4, and the above-mentioned second layer segment can be set as an axial structure with a diameter larger than that of the first layer segment or a flange structure extending outward along the cylindrical surface of the first layer segment, which is not limited here.

[0051] Similarly, the second buckle portion 61 can be configured as follows: Figure 2 The stepped structure shown in the figure has a third layer segment with a smaller width or a smaller diameter in the stepped structure that can be plugged and fitted into the inner ring of the connecting bearing 4 from bottom to top, and the upper end face of the fourth layer segment with a larger width or a larger diameter in the stepped structure can abut against the lower end face of the inner ring of the connecting bearing 4; it can be understood that the above-mentioned third layer segment can be set as an axial structure adapted to the inner ring of the connecting bearing 4, and the above-mentioned fourth layer segment can be set as an axial structure with a diameter larger than that of the third layer segment or a flange structure extending outward along the cylindrical surface of the third layer segment, which is not limited here.

[0052] By matching the connecting seat 6 with the key body 1, the hole-shaft matching between the key body 1 and the connecting bearing 4 can be achieved, and the axial limitation of the connecting bearing 4 can be conveniently achieved by utilizing the matching between the first buckle part 121, the second buckle part 61 and the inner ring of the connecting bearing 4.

[0053] Optionally, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The button body 1 includes a top shell 11 and a connecting column 12 ; a first end of the connecting column 12 is connected to the top shell 11 , and a first buckle portion 121 is disposed at a second end of the connecting column 12 .

[0054] A connecting hole 122 is formed at the second end of the connecting column 12. The connecting hole 122 has a threaded section 1221 and a light hole section 1222. The threaded section 1221 and the light hole section 1222 are arranged in sequence in a direction away from the connecting seat 6. The connecting seat 6 is locked to the threaded section 1221 by a threaded fastener 9, and the light hole section 1222 extends to the top shell 11.

[0055] Specifically, the top shell 11 is a thin-walled structure and can be configured as follows: Figure 2 The middle portion shown is convexly domed, and the connecting column 12 can be integrally formed with the middle portion of the top shell 11 by injection molding or the like; in this way, the top shell 11 with a larger coverage area can be convenient for users to press, pull or twist, and the annular space formed between the lower side of the top shell 11 and the connecting column 12 can be used to accommodate the installation of the LED circuit board 7 and other electronic components; further, the support member 5 can be arranged to cover the annular space, so that a relatively closed accommodating chamber can be enclosed and formed by the cooperation of the support member 5 and the top shell 11, thereby providing better protection for the electronic components such as the LED circuit board 7 installed in the accommodating chamber.

[0056] like Figure 2 As shown, the lower end of the connecting column 12 abuts against the upper end face of the connecting bearing 4 from top to bottom, and the connecting seat 6 abuts against the lower end face of the connecting bearing 4 from bottom to top. A threaded fastener 9 such as a bolt can be used to pass through the connecting seat 6 from bottom to top and screwed onto the threaded section 1221 of the connecting hole 122 at the lower end of the connecting column 12. Then, by screwing the threaded fastener 9, the screw head part of the threaded fastener 9 can be used to push the connecting seat 6 to move in the direction close to the connecting column 12. Finally, the inner ring of the connecting bearing 4 can be clamped by the first buckle portion 121 and the second buckle portion 61, thereby realizing the connection and fixation between the key body 1, the connecting bearing 4 and the connecting seat 6.

[0057] It is understandable that the light hole section 1222 of the connecting hole 122 needs to extend to the top shell 11 so that the distance between the top of the connecting hole 122 and the upper side of the top shell 11 is closer to the wall thickness of the top shell 11. This can improve the uniformity of the overall thickness of the key body 1, avoid shrinkage of the key body 1 during the molding process due to some areas being too thick and some areas being too thin, and improve the molding accuracy of the key body 1.

[0058] Optionally, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The connection seat 6 is provided with a connection cavity 62, and the connection cavity 62 is sleeved on the adjustment shaft 21. By providing the connection cavity 62, the connection seat 6 and the adjustment shaft 21 can be quickly positioned during the assembly process, thereby improving the connection accuracy of the connection seat 6 and the adjustment shaft 21.

[0059] Optionally, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The key body 1 is provided with a positioning cavity 13, and the connection seat 6 is provided with a positioning boss 63, and the positioning boss 63 is inserted into the positioning cavity 13. By providing the positioning cavity 13 and the positioning boss 63, the key body 1 and the connection seat 6 can be quickly positioned during the assembly process, thereby improving the connection accuracy of the key body 1 and the connection seat 6.

[0060] Optionally, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The connecting cavity 62 is arranged on the side of the connecting seat 6 facing the adjusting shaft 21 , and the positioning boss 63 is arranged on the side of the connecting seat 6 facing away from the adjusting shaft 21 .

[0061] In the axial direction of the adjustment shaft 21 , the projection contour of the positioning boss 63 covers the projection contour of the connecting cavity 62 .

[0062] Specifically, the connecting cavity 62 can be arranged on the side of the connecting seat 6 facing the adjusting shaft 21, and the positioning boss 63 can be arranged on the side of the connecting seat 6 facing away from the adjusting shaft 21, and the positioning boss 63 is opposite to the connecting cavity 62. In this way, the thickness of the positioning boss 63 can be used to compensate for the thickness of the connecting seat 6 reduced due to the setting of the connecting cavity 62, thereby improving the uniformity of the overall thickness of the connecting seat 6, avoiding shrinkage of the connecting seat 6 during the molding process due to some areas being too thick and some areas being too thin, and improving the molding accuracy of the connecting seat 6.

[0063] Optionally, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The support member 5 is provided with a limiting protrusion 51 ; the limiting protrusion 51 is used to abut against the fixing member 3 to prevent the button body 1 from approaching the fixing member 3 along the axial direction of the adjustment shaft 21 .

[0064] Illustratively, when the user presses the button body 1 to move it downward a certain distance, the lower end of the limiting protrusion 51 can abut against the upper side surface of the fixing member 3 to prevent the button body 1 from continuing to move downward. This can limit the downward movement of the button body 1 and prevent the button body 1 from moving downward beyond a preset range and causing damage to the adjustment member 2 and other related components.

[0065] Optionally, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 An elastic body 8 is provided on the fixing member 3 , and the limiting protrusion 51 is used to squeeze the elastic body 8 , and the limiting protrusion 51 is used to move away from the fixing member 3 along the axial direction of the adjusting shaft 21 under the elastic force of the elastic body 8 .

[0066] Specifically, the elastic body 8 can be made of elastic materials such as foam, rubber, spring steel, etc. When the user presses the key body 1 downward, the lower end of the limit protrusion 51 will press the elastic body 8 downward, and the elastic body 8 can have a certain buffering effect on the pressed key body 1; and when the user removes the pressing force on the key body 1, the elastic body 8 in the compressed state can push the limit protrusion 51 upward based on its own elastic potential energy, thereby driving the key body 1 to rebound upward to the initial position, thereby realizing the automatic reset of the key body 1.

[0067] Optionally, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The support member 5 is provided with a limiting buckle 52 , and the fixing member 3 is provided with a limiting flange 321 ; the limiting buckle 52 is used to buckle on the limiting flange 321 to prevent the button body 1 from moving away from the fixing member 3 along the axial direction of the adjustment shaft 21 .

[0068] like Figure 3 As shown, the limiting buckle 52 may include a vertical portion 521 and a transverse portion 522, one end of the transverse portion 522 is connected to the lower end of the vertical portion 521; an avoidance area is provided below the limiting flange 321, and the lower end of the vertical portion 521 extends into the avoidance area so that the transverse portion 522 can be buckled on the lower side of the limiting flange 321.

[0069] When the user pulls the button body 1 upward for a certain distance, or when the button body 1 rebounds upward for a certain distance under the elastic force of the elastomer 8, the limit buckle 52 can be buckled on the limit flange 321 to prevent the button body 1 from continuing to move upward. In this way, the upward movement of the button body 1 can be limited to prevent the button body 1 from moving upward for a distance exceeding the preset range and causing damage to the adjustment member 2 and other related components.

[0070] Optionally, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4The support member 5 is provided with a connecting boss 53, which has a connecting ring 531 and a transverse flange 532. The connecting ring 531 extends along the axial direction of the connecting bearing 4, and the transverse flange 532 is arranged on the inner ring surface of the connecting ring 531. The inner ring surface of the connecting ring 531 is interference fit with the outer ring of the connecting bearing 4, and the transverse flange 532 abuts against at least one side end surface of the outer ring of the connecting bearing 4.

[0071] Based on the above arrangement, the axial limitation of the support member 5 can be conveniently achieved by utilizing the cooperation between the transverse flange 532 and the outer ring of the connecting bearing 4, thereby preventing the support member 5 from axially sliding relative to the connecting bearing 4 during subsequent use.

[0072] Preferably, if Figure 4 As shown, the connecting ring 531 and the transverse flange 532 are integrally formed, and the wall thickness of the connecting ring 531 is equal to the thickness of the transverse flange 532, so that the uniformity of the overall thickness of the connecting boss 53 can be ensured, and shrinkage of the support member 5 during the molding process due to some areas being too thick or some areas being too thin can be avoided, thereby improving the molding accuracy of the support member 5.

[0073] Correspondingly, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 An embodiment of the utility model further provides an electrical device, which includes a button assembly in any of the above embodiments.

[0074] In this embodiment, the electrical equipment may refer to any device or equipment that can control, adjust, switch, detect, and protect circuits or electrical appliances by changing circuit parameters. Specifically, the electrical equipment may include audio equipment, household appliances, etc. Taking audio equipment as an example, the audio equipment may include functional components such as sound sources, control devices, audio processors, and power amplifiers.
