Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of switches, in particular to a waterproof structure of a remote control switch. Background Art
[0002] A remote control switch is a device that controls the switch of an electrical appliance through a wireless signal. The working principle of a remote control switch is usually based on wireless technologies such as infrared, radio frequency, and Bluetooth. A user can send a signal through a remote control. After the signal is received by a receiver, the corresponding switch action is triggered. The remote control switch is commonly used to control various household appliances, such as lights, air conditioners, and garbage disposals. The remote control switch of the prior art usually includes a panel, a base, and a signal component. The signal component is arranged in the base. The panel is swingably arranged on the base and covers the signal component in the base. The signal component is prompted to send a signal by pressing the panel to swing it. However, due to the different requirements that the remote control switch needs to face, it is often necessary to optimize according to specific application scenarios. For example, a remote control switch for a garbage disposal is often installed in a kitchen, and there is a lot of oil smoke and water vapor in the kitchen itself, and it is also easier to contact with wet objects and be operated by the user with wet hands. Therefore, better protection is required to prevent external impurities from entering the switch and then contacting the circuit board of the signal component, resulting in the occurrence of switch failure.
