The push rod assembly can rotate with the connecting rod assembly, thereby realizing the contact and separation of the push rod assembly and the auxiliary contacts on the auxiliary switch assembly. When the push rod assembly contacts the auxiliary contacts, a change in the electrical signal is generated. When the push rod assembly separates from the auxiliary contacts, the electrical signal does not change.

[0009] Furthermore, the first shell is provided with a first rib, a second rib and a third rib for limiting position, the first shell is also provided with a hole A and a first guide rail located in the center of the first shell, the first shell is provided with a first groove, a first boss and a first notch outside, and a hole G is provided next to the first notch.

The rotation center of the connecting rod assembly is the central axis of the second boss. The first rib and the fourth rib limit the connecting rod assembly when the switch is in the closed state or the open state. When the main switch changes from the closed state to the open state, the connecting rod assembly rotates 90° clockwise.

[0020] When the switch is in a closed state, the second fillet surface of the connecting rod assembly contacts the first rib and the fourth rib respectively. The first surface and the second surface of the push rod assembly press against the auxiliary contact in the auxiliary switch assembly, so that the auxiliary contact moves inside the auxiliary switch, closing or disconnecting the normally open contact or normally closed contact inside the auxiliary switch, thereby generating a change in the electrical signal, which is then led out from the power terminal.

[0021] When the switch is in the off state, the first fillet surface of the connecting rod assembly contacts the first rib and the fourth rib respectively. The first surface and the second surface of the push rod assembly do not contact the auxiliary contact in the auxiliary switch assembly, and the position of the auxiliary contact does not change, so that the normally open contact or normally closed contact inside the auxiliary switch remains in an open or closed state, the electrical signal does not change, and the electrical signal is led out from the power terminal.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following advantages:

[0023] (1) The auxiliary contacts are directly hit by the rotating parts inside the mechanism, and the signal transmission is more accurate.

[0024] (2) The auxiliary contacts are placed in the auxiliary module of the mechanism, and the auxiliary contacts can be replaced without disassembling the mechanism module, which is more convenient to use. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
