Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] With the development of automobiles, people are pursuing higher and higher quality for automobiles, and the requirements for the comfort of operating combination switches (control switches) are also increasing, especially in terms of the feel and sound of the handle operation. At present, the handle is fixed by a handle bracket, and limiting holes are provided on both sides of the handle bracket. Two limiting shafts are correspondingly provided on the inner side of the shell. The limiting shafts and limiting holes cooperate to enable the handle bracket to rotate relative to the shell. If no gap is set in this limiting structure of the limiting shaft and the limiting hole, a huge rotational force needs to be applied to drive the handle, which is laborious to operate. If a gap is set, the handle can be driven to rotate effortlessly. Therefore, the current limiting structure of the automobile switch operating part is realized by a limiting shaft and a limiting hole with a clearance fit. However, this clearance fit may cause the handle bracket to swing to a certain extent relative to the shell. Utility Model Content

Therefore, the directional and positional terms used are intended to illustrate and facilitate understanding of this invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this invention.
[0028] Figure 1 、 Figure 2 The figure shows an automobile switch, which includes an upper shell 300, a lower shell 400, and a handle bracket 500. The handle bracket 500 is used to fix the handle. The upper shell 300 and the lower shell 400 are respectively located on both sides of the handle bracket 500 and are fixedly connected to form a rotatable limiting structure for the handle bracket 500. Specifically, the upper shell 300 and the lower shell 400 can be connected together by threaded fasteners.
[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, the handle bracket 500 has two connecting plates 510 arranged opposite to each other, and the two connecting plates 510 are respectively provided with a first limiting hole 210 and a second limiting hole 220. Figure 4 、 Figure 5 As shown, the upper shell 300 is provided with an upper support ear 310, and the upper support ear 310 forms a protruding upper limit axis 110. The lower shell 400 is provided with a lower support ear 410, and the lower support ear 410 forms a protruding lower limit axis 120. Figure 6As shown, the upper support ear 310 and the lower support ear 410 are respectively located on the outside of the two connecting plates 510, and the upper limit shaft 110 and the lower limit shaft 120 extend into the first limit hole 210 and the second limit hole 220 respectively, forming a rotatable support limit for the handle bracket 500.
[0030] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the upper limit axis 110 located on the upper shell 300 includes a cylindrical first main positioning portion 111 and a cylindrical first auxiliary positioning portion 112. The first auxiliary positioning portion 112 is concentrically arranged with the first main positioning portion 111 and the outer diameter of the first auxiliary positioning portion 112 is smaller than the outer diameter of the first main positioning portion 111. The first limiting hole 210 matched therewith is respectively provided with a main support portion 211 and an auxiliary support portion 214. Figure 5 As shown, the lower limiting shaft 120 located in the lower housing 400 also includes a cylindrical second main positioning portion 121 and a cylindrical second secondary positioning portion 122. The second secondary positioning portion 122 is concentrically arranged with the second main positioning portion 121 and has an outer diameter smaller than that of the second main positioning portion 121. The second limiting hole 220 that cooperates therewith is also respectively provided with a main support portion 211 and a secondary support portion 214. The structure of the second limiting hole 220 and the coordination structure with the second main positioning portion 121 and the second secondary positioning portion 122 are basically the same as those of the first limiting hole 210.
[0031] Specifically, the corresponding structure is introduced by taking the structure of the upper limit shaft 110 and the first limit hole 210 as an example. Figure 7 As shown, the main support portion 211 has at least three main support planes 212 distributed in an annular manner and main transition surfaces 213 connected between adjacent main support planes 212, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 As shown, the main support plane 212 transitions with the first main positioning portion 111, and a gap d1 is formed between the main transition surface 213 and the first main positioning portion 111. To achieve a transition between the main support plane 212 and the first main positioning portion 111, even if the tolerance zone set by the vertical distance from the main support plane 212 to the axis overlaps with the tolerance zone set by the radius of the first main positioning portion 111, the gap between the two is controlled to be as close to zero as possible under existing production conditions to provide a certain degree of stability. This arrangement provides a stable support for the outer circumference of the first main positioning portion 111 via the main support plane 212, forming a multi-segment line-surface matching structure, avoiding the possibility of jamming of the operating member due to the mating surface being too large and difficult to control.
[0032] Furthermore, the main supporting portion 211 has three main supporting planes 212 therein, and the three main supporting planes 212 and the first main positioning portion 111 form a triangular supporting point structure.
[0033] Furthermore, the size range of d1 is effectively controlled to make d1 = 0.1 mm - 0.3 mm. In this way, the non-matching area between the main support portion 211 and the first main positioning portion 111 can form an oil storage cavity to store grease and avoid abnormal movement noise.
[0034] Furthermore, the main transition surface 213 is a concentric arc, which is convenient for processing.
[0035] Furthermore, the first auxiliary positioning portion 112 and the auxiliary supporting portion 214 are provided with clearance fit, and the first auxiliary positioning portion 112 and the auxiliary supporting portion 214 are provided with clearance fit, which can play a role in auxiliary positioning and reduce the shaking amount of the operating member.
[0036] like Figure 8 As shown, the auxiliary support portion 214 has at least three auxiliary support planes 215 distributed in a ring-shaped manner and an auxiliary transition surface 216 connected between adjacent auxiliary support planes 215. The auxiliary support planes 215 are gap-matched with the first auxiliary positioning portion 112, and a gap d3 is formed between the auxiliary transition surface 216 and the first auxiliary positioning portion 112.
[0037] The gap between the first auxiliary positioning portion 112 and the auxiliary support portion 214 is controlled. Specifically, the gap d2 between the auxiliary support plane 215 and the first auxiliary positioning portion 112 is 0.02mm-0.15mm, and d3 is 0.1mm-0.3mm. This not only assists in positioning, but also forms an oil reservoir to store grease and prevent abnormal movement noise.
[0038] Further, such as Figure 3 As shown, the auxiliary support planes 215 are staggered with the main support plane 212 to provide a better auxiliary effect. Specifically, there are also three auxiliary support planes 215, with three main support planes 212 and three auxiliary support planes 215 equally spaced, and the main support planes 212 and auxiliary support planes 215 are staggered.
[0039] The above disclosure is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and certainly cannot be used to limit the scope of rights of the present invention. Therefore, equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present invention are still within the scope covered by the present invention.
