DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the toggle switch includes a toggle button 1, a lower pressure plate 2 is provided below the toggle button 1, a left side plate 3 and a right side plate 4 are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the lower pressure plate 2 below the toggle button 1, and guide columns 5 are respectively provided on the outer sides of the left side plate 3 and the right side plate 4. The lower pressure plate 2, the left side plate 3 and the right side plate 4 are parallel to each other, and a front side plate 6 and a rear side plate 7 are respectively provided on the front and rear sides of the lower pressure plate 2 below the toggle button 1. The front side plate 6, the rear side plate 7 and the lower pressure plate 2 are perpendicular, and buckles 8 are provided on the front side plate 6 and the rear side plate 7.

[0023] like Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the switch bracket includes a frame-type base body 9, and a rotating shaft 10 is respectively provided on the left and right sides of the outside of the base body, and a guide groove 11 is respectively provided on the left and right sides of the inside of the base body for cooperating with the guide column. The front side and rear side of the outside of the base body are also respectively provided with a front pressure plate 12 and a rear pressure plate 13, and the front side and rear side of the outside of the base body are also respectively provided with a protrusion 14 that cooperates with the buckle.

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, when the toggle switch and the switch bracket are assembled, the guide column on the toggle switch cooperates with the guide groove in the switch bracket, and the buckles 8 on the left and right sides of the toggle switch are respectively buckled on the protrusions 14 on the left and right sides of the switch bracket.

[0025] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, a front contact 15, a middle contact 16 and a rear contact 17 are provided on the multi-function steering wheel mounting plate at the fixed mounting position of the toggle switch. A fixing plate 18 is also provided on the left and right sides of the contact, and an axis hole is provided on the fixing plate 18. After the toggle switch and the switch bracket are installed in coordination, the switch bracket cooperates with the axis holes on the fixing plate 18 through the rotating shafts 10 on the left and right sides to achieve the installation of the toggle switch on the multi-function steering wheel mounting plate. After installation, the front pressure plate 12 and the rear pressure plate 13 on the switch bracket contact with the front contact 15 and the rear contact 17 respectively, and the lower pressure plate 2 on the toggle switch contacts the middle contact 16. When the toggle switch is in use, the toggle switch is pushed forward, and the toggle switch and the switch bracket tilt forward as a whole, and the front pressure plate 12 presses down the front contact 15.

[0026] The multi-function steering wheel issues a corresponding instruction. After the forward push instruction is completed, the toggle switch and the switch bracket return to their initial state as a whole under the rebound action of the front contact 15. If the toggle switch is pushed back, the toggle switch and the switch bracket tilt backward as a whole, and the rear pressure plate 13 presses down the rear contact 17. The multi-function steering wheel issues a corresponding instruction. After the rear shift instruction is completed, the toggle switch and the switch bracket return to their initial state as a whole under the rebound action of the rear contact 15. If the toggle switch is pressed, the toggle switch is downward, and the lower pressure plate 2 on the toggle switch presses down the middle contact 16. The multi-function steering wheel issues a corresponding instruction. After the downward push instruction is completed, the toggle switch returns to its initial state under the rebound action of the middle contact 16.

[0027] like Figure 10 As shown, the multi-function steering wheel mounting plate is provided with a toggle limit hole 19 on the inner side of the two fixing plates 18, and a limit block 21 is provided on the front and rear sides of the toggle limit hole 19. The multi-function steering wheel mounting plate is also provided with a downward pressure limit hole 20 on the inner side of the toggle limit hole, and a limit block 21 is provided on the front and rear sides of the downward pressure limit hole 20. The bottom of the guide column 5 on the toggle switch extends out of the left plate 3 and the right plate 4. After the toggle switch is installed on the multi-function steering wheel mounting plate, the bottom of the guide column 5 is located at In the toggle limit hole, the left side plate 3 and the right side plate 4 are located above the downward limit hole. After the toggle switch is pushed forward or backward, the guide column 5 swings with the toggle switch. The limit blocks on the front and rear sides of the toggle limit hole limit the swing amplitude of the guide column 5, that is, limit the swing amplitude of the toggle switch. After the toggle switch is pressed downward, the left side plate 3 and the right side plate 4 are moved downward together with the toggle switch. After the left side plate 3 and the right side plate 4 touch the limit blocks on the front and rear sides of the downward limit hole, they stop moving downward, thereby limiting the downward depression amplitude of the toggle switch.
