An installation hole for installing the button is opened at the center of the decorative ring, and the button can move in the vertical direction of the installation hole.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, an annular groove is circumferentially formed on the inner wall of the annular step, and an annular convex surface for being embedded into the annular groove protrudes from the bottom circumferential surface of the decorative ring. The housing has a hole position for the decorative ring to protrude.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the bottom end of the decorative ring is provided with a texture along the circumferential direction.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, a bracket is further included, which is installed in the housing and located above the electronic switch, and the bottom end of the light-transmitting body abuts against the upper end surface of the bracket.

Detailed implementation manners

[0028] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.

[0029] A structure of a colored light button, referring to Figure 1-10 , includes a housing 6 which has a receiving cavity; includes a PCB main board 5 which is disposed in the receiving cavity, an electronic switch 51 is integrated on the PCB main board 5, and a plurality of light-emitting components 52 electrically connected to the PCB main board 5 are circumferentially distributed around the electronic switch 51. The plurality of light-emitting components 52 enclose to form an annular light-emitting area. The light-emitting component 52 is an RGB lamp (which can meet the color-changing requirement). A PCB main board 5 with an RGB lamp and an electronic switch 51 is designed. When the RGB lamp is lit, the light surrounds the switch. According to the arrangement order of the RGB lamp beads, each lamp bead gradually changes in different light colors, and the effect of color flow can be seen on the decorative ring. It is also possible to make the lamp beads light up the same light color for functions such as marking or warning, greatly increasing the playability and cool effect of the product.

[0030] Further, it further includes a light-transmitting body 3, a button 2 and a decorative ring 1. The light-transmitting body 3 is disposed in the housing 6 and above the annular light-emitting area. A convex portion extends along the vertical direction at the center of the light-transmitting body 3. An annular step 301 protrudes on the upper end surface of the light-transmitting body 3 around the convex portion. The inner wall of the housing 6 has a step groove 601 for the annular step 301 to be embedded. Among them, the upper end surface of the annular step 301 is tightly attached to the upper end surface of the step groove 601. By means of the step groove 601 to assist in defining the installation position of the light-transmitting body 3, it can achieve softening the mixed light color and at the same time play a waterproof role.

[0031] Preferably, the light-transmitting body 13 is made of transparent silicone material, or can also be made of other elastic and transparent materials.

[0032] Further, the button 2 is sleeved on the convex portion at the upper end of the light-transmitting body 3. The button 2 is preferably designed as a cylindrical structure, but there is no limitation. The upper end surface of the button 2 is provided with anti-slip lines 201, and the anti-slip lines 201 can be circular or strip-shaped, which can not only play an anti-slip role but also play an auxiliary decorative role.

[0033] Further, the decorative ring 1 is a translucent part and is arranged on the light-transmitting body 3. The decorative ring 1 can not only assist in defining the position of the button 2 but also play a role in softening and mixing light colors. An installation hole 101 for installing the button 2 is opened in the center of the decorative ring 1. The button 2 can move along the vertical direction of the installation hole 101. During the process of the button 2 driving the light-transmitting body 3 to move downward, the light-transmitting body 3 deforms and contacts the electronic switch 51, and then the electronic switch 51 can be correspondingly triggered.

[0034] In addition, a second annular convex surface is provided on the bottom peripheral surface of the button 2, and a second annular groove for embedding the second annular convex surface is correspondingly provided in the installation hole 101, which is used to limit the upward travel distance of the button 2.

[0035] Further, the bottom end of the decorative ring 1 is provided with a texture 102 in the circumferential direction, and the texture 102 can play a role in further softening and mixing light colors.

[0036] Preferably, the decorative ring 1 is made of a translucent plastic material, but there is no limitation here.

[0037] Further, an annular groove is opened in the inner wall of the annular step 301 in the circumferential direction, and an annular convex surface that can be embedded into the annular groove is formed on the bottom peripheral surface of the decorative ring 1. The housing 6 has a hole 602 for the decorative ring 1 to protrude. Through the cooperation of the annular convex surface and the annular groove, the installation position of the decorative ring 1 in the light-transmitting body 3 can be assisted in being defined.

[0038] Further, a bracket 4 is further included, which is installed in the housing 6 and located above the electronic switch 51. The bottom end of the light-transmitting body 3 abuts against the upper end surface of the bracket 4. A through hole larger than the annular light-emitting area is opened in the center of the bracket 4. The bracket 4 can assist in defining the installation positions of the light-transmitting body 3 and the button 2, and secondly, it can also play an auxiliary light-shielding role.

[0039] Among them, the bracket 4 is made of a metal material, and the metal material is preferably aluminum alloy.

[0040] In summary, a main board 5 with a color-changing light-emitting component 52 and an electronic switch 51 is designed, and a light softening and color mixing part is designed above the light-emitting component 52. When the light-emitting component 52 is lit, the light surrounds the switch. According to the arrangement order of the light-emitting components 52, each light-emitting component 52 gradually changes in different light colors, and the effect of color flow can be seen on the decorative ring 1. It is also possible to make the light-emitting components 52 light up the same light color for functions such as marking or warning, which greatly increases the playability and cool effect of the product. In addition, after the light color is mixed by the light-transmitting body 3 and the decorative ring 1, the light is more uniform and soft, which can improve the "starburst" phenomenon during lighting, thus enabling the user to have a good visual feeling.

[0041] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
