Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of normally closed switches, in particular to a normally closed switch with dustproof and waterproof functions. Background Art
[0002] A normally closed switch is a switch device that is in a closed state when no external force is applied, that is, the open circuit state of the switch. When someone turns the switch button or the switch is turned by an automatic device, the switch is converted to an open circuit. This type of switch is mainly used to control electrical devices in the circuit, such as light bulbs, motors, etc. When the circuit needs to be turned on or off, it can be achieved by operating the normally open switch. Compared with the normally open switch, the normally closed switch is in a closed state under normal circumstances.
[0003] There are many types of normally closed switches available. In some special usage scenarios, water vapor corrodes the switches, causing the internal metal contacts to rust or short-circuit, and the waterproof performance is poor, which cannot meet the usage conditions. Utility Model Content

At the same time, a partition is formed inside the normally closed switch, which further enhances the waterproof performance of the normally closed switch and improves the waterproof effect of the normally closed switch.
[0012] As can be seen from the above, a normally closed switch with dustproof and waterproof functions includes a first shell and a second shell, a spring is arranged inside the second shell, a pressing head is sleeved on one end of the spring, a first electrode, a second electrode and a linkage block are arranged inside the second shell, and further includes:

[0014] The locking mechanism is used to fix the first shell and the second shell. The utility model provides a normally closed switch with dust and water-proof functions, which has the technical effect of making the interior of the normally closed switch in a sealed state, improving the sealing performance and protection level of the normally closed switch, ensuring the internal dryness of the normally closed switch, and improving the waterproof effect of the normally closed switch.

[0023] The sealing mechanism includes a rubber pad 12. A circular groove is formed on the inner circumferential outer wall of the second housing 4 near the pressing head 3. The rubber pad 12 is arranged in the circular groove. A protrusion 15 is formed on the inner circumferential wall of the rubber pad 12. The protrusion 15 contacts the outer circumferential wall of the pressing head 3.

A drainage groove 13 is formed on the inner circumferential wall of the circular groove. One end of the drainage groove 13 is connected to the outer wall of the second housing 4.
[0024] The locking mechanism is used to fix the first housing 2 and the second housing 4.
[0025] Specifically, the rubber pad 12 and the protrusion 15 are used in conjunction with the pressing head 3 to keep the interior of the normally closed switch in a sealed state. If water vapor appears at the junction of the second shell 4 and the rubber pad 12 and the pressing head 3, the water vapor is discharged to the outside through the drain groove 13 to ensure that the interior of the normally closed switch is dry.
[0026] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In a preferred embodiment, a first pole piece 10 and a second pole piece 11 are respectively provided in the second shell 4, one end of the first pole piece 10 is fixedly connected to the first electrode 8, and one end of the second pole piece 11 is fixedly connected to the second electrode 9.

Under normal circumstances, the first electrode 8 is in contact with the second electrode 9 and is in a closed state. When the switch needs to be closed, the pressing head 3 is pressed downward, and the linkage block 7 at one end of the pressing head 3 rotates, and the linkage block 7 squeezes the second pole piece 11 to deform, so that the second electrode 9 is away from the first electrode 8, thereby disconnecting the circuit.

[0028] Specifically, when the first housing 2 and the second housing 4 are fixedly installed, the second protrusion 20 is embedded in the installation groove 17, and the first protrusion 18 is inserted into the card groove to form a closed structure, so that the normally closed switch is isolated from the outside world, and at the same time, the normally closed switch is divided inside.
[0029] Working principle: When in use, the second protrusion 20 is embedded in the installation groove 17, and the first protrusion 18 is inserted into the card slot to form a closed structure. The rubber pad 12 and the protrusion 15 are used in conjunction with the pressing head 3 to make the interior of the normally closed switch in a sealed state. If water vapor appears at the junction of the second shell 4 and the rubber pad 12 and the pressing head 3, the water vapor will be discharged to the outside through the drain groove 13.

The replacement can be a replacement of part of the structure, device, method step, or a complete technical solution. Equivalent replacement or change based on the technical solution of the utility model and its utility model concept should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
