Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of wall switches, and particularly to a wall switch with a secondary drive structure. Background Art

[0002] In the design of traditional wall switches, the direct contact between the button and the swing rod can ensure the directness of operation and the immediacy of feedback in the initial stage. However, under frequent use and the test of time, mechanical wear and structural fatigue gradually emerge. The long-term movement of the swing rod and the silver bridge is likely to cause slight deviations in the swing angle. Although these deviations are small, they are sufficient to affect the accuracy and reliability of the reciprocating movement of the silver bridge, thereby affecting the accuracy of circuit on-off, reducing the overall stability and service life of the switch, and increasing the risk of circuit failures. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] In view of this, the utility model provides a wall switch with a secondary drive structure. With the secondary drive structure, it not only improves the stability and reliability of operation, but also effectively reduces the force requirement during operation, making the switch operation easier and smoother.

The button drives the switch swing rod to swing to turn on and off the hardware part through the mutually nested groove and extension protrusion. A drive column is further arranged on the back of the button, and the drive column faces the switch swing rod and can contact and drive it to swing.

[0006] In this innovative design, the button is provided with a vertical plate, and a groove is ingeniously dug on the vertical plate. The switch swing rod is provided with an extension protrusion that can be embedded into the groove. This precise nested structure ensures that the button can stably and accurately drive the switch swing rod to swing, realizing the on-off control of the circuit. More notably, a driving column is provided on the back of the button. This design not only increases the contact points between the button and the switch swing rod but also can directly contact the switch swing rod and drive it to swing, forming a secondary driving mechanism. This innovative structure not only improves the stability and reliability of the operation but also effectively reduces the force required during operation, making the switch operation easier and smoother. In the design of this patent, the swing angle of the switch button can reach 2.7°. This breakthrough in design not only reflects a profound consideration for the operation experience but also demonstrates precise mastery of mechanical structure design. The 2.7° swing angle of the button means that when the user operates the switch, the on-off of the circuit can be achieved with a smaller movement amplitude, improving the comfort and convenience of the operation. At the same time, this design can also effectively reduce the mechanical wear during switch operation, extend the service life of the switch, and provide a more durable and stable user experience for the user. In addition, the realization of the switch border design not only improves the aesthetics of the switch, enabling it to better integrate into various decoration styles, but also reduces the installation space requirements, providing more possibilities for the application of wall switches.
