Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of silica gel buttons, in particular to a light-transmitting POS machine button. Background Art

[0002] POS is a terminal reader equipped with barcode or OCR code technology, which has cash or barter quota cashier function. The main task of POS is to provide data services and management functions for commodity and media transactions, and to perform non-cash settlement. POS is a multi-functional terminal. It is installed in the designated merchants and acceptance outlets of credit cards and connected to the computer network to realize automatic electronic fund transfer. It has functions such as consumption, pre-authorization, balance inquiry and transfer.

[0003] Regarding the button technology of POS machines, the existing public patent (publication number CN 214477098 U) discloses a high-strength POS machine plastic button, including a base plate, a button body, a support plate and an auxiliary component. The button body is evenly fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base plate, an inner groove is opened inside the button body, and connecting seats are symmetrically fixed on the inner wall of the inner groove. A support plate is rotatably connected between two groups of connecting seats. An auxiliary component is arranged at one end of the support plate away from the connecting seat. The auxiliary component includes a slide groove and a slider. The inner wall of the inner groove is symmetrically opened with slide grooves, and the inner wall of the slide groove is slidably connected with a slider. The end of the slider away from the slide groove is hinged to the support plate, and the inner wall of the slide groove is symmetrically opened with limiting grooves.

[0004] In actual use, although the above-mentioned buttons have high overall strength and are not easy to deform, the separation design between some buttons and the bottom plate makes it easy for dust to accumulate in the gaps, making it difficult to clean, which greatly reduces the practicality. To this end, we provide a light-transmitting POS machine button to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0028] Example

[0029] See also Figure 1-3 The utility model is a light-transmitting POS machine button, including an integrated silicone button 1, the integrated silicone button 1 includes: a substrate 11; a button body 12, which is integrally formed and arranged on the upper side of the substrate 11; a positioning protrusion 110, which is arranged at the middle position of the top of the internal cavity of the button body 12; conductive carbon particles 111, which are embedded and installed inside the positioning protrusion 110; a shaping protrusion 18, which is arranged at the bottom corner of the internal cavity of the button body 12; and a shaping protrusion 2 19, which is arranged at the top edge of the internal cavity of the button body 12.

[0030] Specifically, in the light-transmitting POS machine button proposed in the present application, the base 11 is made of transparent silicone material. The light emitted by the POS machine when working penetrates the base 11, which has a high aesthetics. The one-piece silicone button 1 made of one-piece molding is convenient to load and unload. At the same time, its own structure is stable, the outer surface has no gaps, it is not easy to accumulate dust, and it is easy to clean. Based on the one-piece molding process, a shaping protrusion 18 and a shaping protrusion 2 19 structure are added inside the button body 12, which can effectively prevent the button body 12 from collapsing. The internal chamber design of the button body 12 makes it difficult for the conductive carbon particles 111 to be accidentally touched.

[0031] Furthermore, the base 11 is symmetrically provided with a mounting portion 13 at the lower portion, and the base 11 is symmetrically provided with a mounting portion 2 14 at the upper portion. The base 11 is integrally provided with a shaping protrusion 3 15 on the lower side surface, and the base 11 is provided with a buffer notch 16 near the shaping protrusion 3 15 . The shaping protrusion 3 15 is located between adjacent button bodies 12 .

[0032] Specifically, the mounting portion 13 and the mounting portion 2 14 are both provided with mounting holes, which are used for connection and positioning of the base 11 and the POS machine housing, and assist in fixing the position of the integrated silicone button 1. The shaping protrusion 3 15 is also used for auxiliary positioning of the integrated silicone button 1. At the same time, the shaping protrusion 3 15 is semi-cylindrical, which is used to improve the overall structural strength of the base 11, avoid the base 11 from being too loose, and reduce the mutual influence of the button body 12 during the pressing process. The buffer notch 16 is set to cooperate with the pressing of the button body 12. When the button body 12 is pressed, the buffer notch 16 is deformed and the opening is expanded, thereby reducing the influence on the position of the adjacent button body 12.

[0033] Furthermore, the substrate 11 is provided with a contact port 17 , and the contact port 17 is located directly below the conductive carbon particles 111 . The conductive carbon particles 111 are adapted to the circuit board 2 , and the circuit board 2 is in contact with the substrate 11 .

[0034] Specifically, the contact port 17 is provided for the cooperation between the conductive carbon particles 111 and the contact end on the circuit board 2 on the one hand, and for the pressing exhaust inside the key body 12 on the other hand. The cooperation principle between the conductive carbon particles 111 and the contact points of the circuit board 2 is a relatively mature technology at present, and will not be described in further detail here.
