Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

In addition, the terms "first", "second", and "third" are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0021] As Figures 1-5 This is a schematic structural diagram of a rotary switch according to a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. In this embodiment, a rotary switch includes a cover plate 1. A through hole 11 is formed on the top surface of the cover plate 1. Contact devices 4 are arranged on both sides of the through hole 11 on the bottom surface of the cover plate 1. A rotating shaft 3 is rotatably connected in the through hole 11, and the bottom of the rotating shaft 3 is in contact with the contact device 4. A plurality of gear position identifiers 5 are fixedly connected around the through hole 11 on the top surface of the cover plate 1. Through the gear position identifiers 5, the working position where the rotating shaft 3 rotates can be quickly identified. A base 2 is clamped below the cover plate 1. A connection cavity 21 is formed in the base 2. A moving contact and a static contact are assembled in the connection cavity 21, and the top of the moving contact is connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft 3. By rotating the rotating shaft 3, the moving contact is driven to contact the static contact.

[0022] In this embodiment, the contact device 4 includes a fixed box 41, a contact head 43, and a compression spring 44. The fixed box 41 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the cover plate 1. An activity cavity 42 is formed in the fixed box 41. The contact head 43 is movably connected at the orifice of the activity cavity 42. A compression spring 44 is arranged in the activity cavity 42. One end of the compression spring 44 is fixedly connected to the rear end face of the contact head 43, and the other end of the compression spring 44 is fixedly connected to the inner wall surface of the activity cavity 42 so that the contact head 43 can move in the activity cavity 42.

[0023] In this embodiment, the rotating shaft 3 includes a handle 31 and a connection disk 32. The bottom of the handle 31 is fixedly connected to the connection disk 32, and the outer wall surface of the connection disk 32 is in contact with the surface of the contact head 43. A plurality of convex protrusions 33 are fixedly connected to the surface of the connection disk 32 on average. Through the contact and cooperation between the convex protrusions 33 and the contact head 43, when the handle 31 rotates, the connection disk 32 is driven to rotate. During the rotation of the connection disk 32, due to the protrusion of the convex protrusions 33, the contact head 43 moves in the activity cavity 42. When the convex protrusions 33 contact the contact head 43 and the contact head 43 moves in the activity cavity 42, a damping feeling will occur during the rotation of the connection disk 32, which can be transmitted to the operator, enabling the operator to clearly know the position where the handle 31 rotates, thereby improving the adjustment accuracy of the rotary switch and enhancing the connectivity of the adjustment signal.

[0024] In this embodiment, a plurality of anti-slip edges 34 are fixedly connected to the surface of the handle 31 on average, increasing the friction coefficient when the operator operates the handle 31 and facilitating better operation of the handle 31.

[0025] In this embodiment, the handle 31 and the connection disk 32 are designed as an integral structure, increasing the connection strength therebetween.

[0026] In this embodiment, the number of the convex hulls 33 is equal to the number of the gear position identifiers 5, and the positions of the convex hulls 33 and the gear position identifiers 5 are designed relatively. Through the cooperation between the convex hulls 33 and the gear position identifiers 5 in its structural design, an operator can clearly know the positional relationship of the rotary switch during adjustment.

[0027] The above content further elaborates on the present utility model in conjunction with specific embodiments. It cannot be determined that the specific implementation of the present utility model is only limited to these descriptions. For those of ordinary skill in the technical field to which the present utility model pertains, without departing from the concept of the present utility model, several simple deductions or substitutions can still be made, and all should be regarded as falling within the protection scope determined by the claims submitted for the present utility model.
