[0030] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects solved by the utility model more clear, the utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model.

[0031] When the embodiments of the present invention mention ordinal numbers such as "first" and "second", unless they do express the meaning of order according to the context, they should be understood as being merely for distinction.

[0032] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection" and "connection" 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 indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0033] Specific embodiments, such as Figure 1-4The waterproof panel switch shown includes: a mounting base 1, on which a mounting cavity 11 is provided; a panel member 2, which is arranged in the mounting cavity 11; a mounting and fixing structure 3, which is arranged in the mounting cavity 11 and is used to install and fix the panel member 2; a waterproof cover 4, which is hinged on the mounting base 1, and the waterproof cover 4 can be turned up and down around a hinge axis to cover the mounting cavity 11; a locking cover mechanism 5, which is arranged between the waterproof cover 4 and the mounting base 1 and is used to limit the waterproof cover 4 from turning up and down around the hinge axis. The waterproof cover can be turned up and away from the mounting base for normal use, which is convenient to use and operate. When it is not in use, the waterproof cover can be limited to turn up and down around the hinge axis by the locking cover mechanism, so that the waterproof cover keeps covering the mounting cavity, that is, water mist is prevented from entering the panel member in the mounting cavity, ensuring the normal use of the panel member and making it safer to use.

[0034] Specifically, a connecting torsion spring is provided at the hinge of the waterproof cover 4 and the mounting base 1, and the connecting torsion spring is used to keep the waterproof cover 4 in a tendency to flip upward. When the locking cover mechanism 5 releases the restriction of the waterproof cover 4 flipping up and down around the hinge axis, the waterproof cover 4 automatically flips upward and away from the mounting base due to the elastic force, which is more convenient to use, and there is no need to touch the waterproof cover 4, which is safer to use.

[0035] In addition, in order to further improve the sealing performance of the mounting base 1 and the waterproof cover 4 , the opening edge of the mounting base 1 is provided with a sealing rubber ring 6 .

[0036] Furthermore, the locking cover mechanism 5 includes: a limiting protrusion 51, which is provided on the waterproof cover 4; a limiting buckle 52, which is provided on the mounting base 1 and corresponds to the limiting protrusion 51, and a buckle groove 521 is provided on the limiting buckle 52, and the limiting buckle 52 can be rotated relative to the mounting base 1 until the limiting protrusion 51 is locked in the buckle groove 521; a toggle 53, which is connected to the limiting buckle 52 and is used to drive the limiting buckle 52 to rotate. By driving the limiting buckle 52 to rotate until the limiting protrusion 51 is locked in the buckle groove 521 by the toggle 53, the waterproof cover 4 can be limited to flip up and down around the hinge axis, which is convenient to use and operate.

[0037] More specifically, in order to make the locking more stable, there are two limit protrusions 51 and two limit buckles 52. The two limit protrusions 51 are relatively arranged on both sides of the waterproof cover 4, and the two limit buckles 52 are relatively arranged on both sides of the mounting base 1 and are respectively arranged one by one with the two limit protrusions 51. The two ends of the toggle member 53 are respectively connected with the two limit buckles 52. When the toggle member 53 is flipped up and down, it can drive the two limit buckles 52 to rotate synchronously until the limit protrusions 51 are locked in the corresponding buckle grooves 521.

[0038] Furthermore, a plurality of toggle protrusions 7 arranged side by side are provided on the surface of the toggle member 53 to increase the contact friction force and facilitate toggle the toggle member 53 .

[0039] Furthermore, the locking cover mechanism 5 further comprises a movable clamping member 54 rotatably arranged on the mounting base 1, a rolling member 55 arranged at one end of the movable clamping member 54 away from the mounting base 1, and a torsion spring arranged between the movable clamping member 54 and the mounting base 1. When the limiting protrusion 51 enters the buckle groove 521, it first presses against the rolling member 55 and pushes the movable clamping member 54 to rotate, and compresses the torsion spring at the same time. When the limiting protrusion 51 enters the buckle groove 521, the torsion spring drives the movable clamping member 54 to rotate and reset, and cooperates with the buckle groove 521 to limit the movement of the limiting protrusion 51.

[0040] Specifically, the installation and fixing structure 3 includes a fixing ring 31 sleeved on the circumference of the panel member 2, a fixing groove 32 provided on the inner wall of the fixing ring 31, a first fixing protrusion 33 provided on the circumference of the panel member 2 and extending into the fixing groove 32, and a first fixing hook 34 provided on the fixing ring 31 and located at the edge of the fixing groove 32. During assembly, the panel member 2 enters the fixing ring 31 from top to bottom, and the first fixing protrusion 33 enters the fixing groove 32 after passing through the first fixing hook 34 and is fixed by the first fixing hook 34, thereby increasing the supporting force and structural strength of the panel member 2, preventing it from falling off during plugging and unplugging, and facilitating clamping and fixing during plugging and unplugging detection.

[0041] More specifically, in order to make the connection between the panel member 2 and the fixing ring 31 more stable and compact, the mounting and fixing structure 3 further includes a second fixing protrusion 35 provided on the inner wall of the fixing ring 31, a third fixing protrusion 36 provided on the peripheral side of the panel member 2 and located above the second fixing protrusion 35, and a second fixing hook 37 provided on the peripheral side of the panel member 2 and located below the second fixing protrusion 35. The panel member 2 enters the fixing ring 31 from top to bottom, and the third fixing protrusion 36 passes through the second fixing hook 37 and enters between the second fixing protrusion 35 and the second fixing hook 37, which is more stable and compact.

[0042] Furthermore, a support connection ear 8 is provided on the inner wall of the mounting base 1, a first connection hole 91 is provided on the support connection ear 8, and a second connection hole 92 corresponding to and matching the first connection hole 91 is provided on the fixing ring 31. The detachable connection is achieved by the cooperation of the first connection hole 91, the second connection hole 92 and the connecting bolt or screw. Specifically, the second connection hole 92 is a waist-shaped hole for easy adjustment.

[0043] The above is an implementation method provided in combination with specific content, and it is not considered that the specific implementation of the utility model is limited to these descriptions. At the same time, due to different industry names, it is not limited to the above names, nor is it limited to English names. Any method, structure, etc. similar to or identical to the method, structure, etc. of the utility model, or a number of technical deductions or replacements made on the premise of the concept of the utility model, shall be regarded as the protection scope of the utility model.
