[0024] The following describes the embodiments of the present invention in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] See also Figures 1 to 8 A toggle switch includes a switch body 1, the switch body 1 includes a shell 4, at least two groups of toggle assemblies 2 connected to the shell 4, and a contact assembly 3 connected to the toggle assemblies 2. The toggle assembly 2 includes a toggle block 21 and a sliding contact clip 22 connected to the toggle block 21. The contact assembly 3 includes a terminal board 31 connected to the shell 4 and a contact strip 32 provided on the terminal board 31. The contact strip 32 is connected to the sliding contact clip 22. The contact assembly 3 is used to connect the toggle assembly 2 and the external circuit. Each group of the sliding contact clips 42 is connected to the contact bar 42 to form an independent circuit. Each group of the toggle assemblies 2 can be operated independently to achieve independent control of a single circuit. By setting at least two groups of the toggle assemblies 2, the toggle switch can independently control at least two circuits. The user can control different circuits by individually controlling each group of the toggle assemblies 2, thereby achieving independent control of multiple circuits, improving the control ability of the toggle switch over the circuit, and solving the problem that the toggle switch in the prior art can synchronously control multiple circuits but cannot achieve independent control of multiple circuits, effectively improving the practicality and functionality of the toggle switch. The contact assembly 3 is connected to the toggle assembly 2 and the external circuit respectively. Furthermore, the user controls the on and off of the circuit by toggling the toggle block 21. The terminal board 31 provides an installation position for the contact bar 32, ensuring that the contact bar 32 can work stably during the operation of the switch, and the contact bar 32 serves to connect the sliding contact clip 22 and the external circuit.

[0026] Furthermore, the toggle assembly 2 also includes an elastic member 23 connected to the toggle block 21, and a ball 24 connected to the elastic member 23. A toggle rod 211 is provided on one side of the toggle block 21. A positioning hole 212 for installing the elastic member 23 and the ball 24 is provided on one side of the toggle block 21. The toggle block 21 is provided with a receiving cavity 213 for installing the sliding contact clip 22. A toggle lever 211 is provided on one side of the toggle block 21 to facilitate the user to toggle the toggle lever 211 to drive the toggle block 21. Since the sliding contact clip 22 is connected to the toggle block 21, when the toggle block 21 moves, the sliding contact clip 22 also moves accordingly, thereby contacting or disengaging from the circuit terminal to achieve the on-off of the circuit. The accommodating cavity 213 is used to install the sliding contact clip 213, ensuring that the sliding contact clip 213 can be fixed to the toggle block 21, so that the sliding contact clip 213 and the toggle block 21 slide synchronously to achieve accurate control of the circuit. At the same time, the positioning hole 212 is used to install the elastic member 23 and the ball 24, ensuring that they are in the correct position within the toggle block 21 and can function stably, thereby effectively improving the structural stability and accuracy of the toggle switch.

[0027] Furthermore, the terminal board 31 is provided with an insertion hole 311 for the contact strip 32 to pass through. The contact strip 32 includes a contact terminal 321 connected to the sliding contact clamp 22 and a conducting terminal 322 electrically connected to the outside. The contact strip 32 is fixed by the socket 311, which ensures the stability and reliability of the contact strip 32, avoids the poor contact between the sliding contact clip 22 and the contact strip 32 due to loosening and displacement of the contact strip 32, and effectively improves the reliability and stability of the switch. Specifically, the contact terminal 321 and the conducting terminal 322 are both part of the contact strip 32. The contact terminal 321 is in direct contact with the sliding contact clip 22. When the sliding contact clip 22 moves due to the action of the toggle block 21, the contact state between the contact terminal 321 and the sliding contact clip 22 will change, thereby realizing the on-off of the circuit, and the conducting terminal 322 is responsible for connecting to the external circuit. When the contact terminal 321 is in contact with the sliding contact clip 22, the current can be transmitted to the external circuit through the conducting terminal 322.

[0028] Furthermore, a first clip 221 and a second clip 222 are provided on the lower side of the sliding contact clip 22, and the first clip 221 and the second clip 222 abut against the contact terminal 321. When the sliding contact clip 22 is moved so that the first clip 221 and the second clip 222 are respectively connected to the two contact terminals 321, the circuit is in a connected state. When the sliding contact clip 22 is moved so that only one of the first clip 221 and the second clip 222 is connected to the contact terminal 321, the circuit is in a disconnected state. Furthermore, the first clip 221 and the second clip 222 have a certain degree of elasticity, which can enhance the contact pressure between the first clip 221 and the second clip 222 and the contact terminal 321, improve the reliability of the contact between the two, form a stable electrical connection, and effectively improve the reliability of the switch.

[0029] Furthermore, the number of the contact strips 32 is at least two groups, the number of the contact terminals 321 and the conductive terminals 322 corresponds to the number of the contact strips 32, the number of the contact terminals 321 in each group is at least three, and the spacing distance between the contact terminals 321 in each group is the same. The number of the contact strips 32 is at least two groups, which means that the toggle switch contains at least two independent groups of the contact strips 32, and each group of the contact strips 32 can control a group of circuits. Such a design allows the toggle switch to control multiple independent circuits at the same time, improving the functionality and flexibility of the switch. Specifically, the number of groups of the contact strips 32 corresponds to the number of groups of the toggle assemblies 2, and each group of the toggle assemblies 2 forms an independent control circuit with a group of the contact strips 32. Furthermore, each group of the contact strips 32 is equipped with corresponding contact terminals 321 and conductive terminals 322. The contact terminals 321 are responsible for contacting the sliding contact clip 22, while the conductive terminals 322 are used to contact the outside. The circuit connection and one-to-one correspondence ensure that each circuit has clear input and output ports. Furthermore, the number of the contact terminals 321 in each group is at least three, which means that a group of circuits can have two gears. The number of the contact terminals 321 determines the number of gears of a group of circuits. When the number of the contact terminals 321 in each group is four, a group of circuits can have three gears. Furthermore, the spacing distance between the contact terminals 321 in each group is the same, which can ensure that the sliding contact clip 22 can be accurately connected to the corresponding two contact terminals 321 in each gear, ensuring the reliability and consistency of switching between each gear, and effectively improving the reliability of the switch.

[0030] Furthermore, the switch body 1 also includes a partition wall 5 connected to the housing 4 and the terminal board 31, respectively. The partition wall 5 is disposed between each group of contact terminals 321. First engaging portions 51 are provided on opposite sides of the partition wall 5, and first engaging grooves 41 corresponding to the first engaging portions 51 are provided on opposite sides of the housing 4. The partition wall 5, disposed between each group of contact terminals 321, can isolate different groups of contact terminals 321, preventing electrical interference or short circuits, ensuring the independence of multiple groups of circuits, and effectively improving the reliability and safety of the switch. Furthermore, the design of the first engaging portion 51 and the first engaging groove 41 enables the partition wall 5 to be fixed to the interior of the housing 4 by means of a snap-fit ​​mechanism, ensuring the secure installation of the partition wall 5 and preventing displacement or loosening during use, thereby effectively improving the structural stability and reliability of the switch.

[0031] Furthermore, one side of the housing 4 and the partition wall 5 are each provided with a group of limiting holes 6 , and each group of limiting holes 6 has at least two holes, and the balls 24 abut against the limiting holes 6 . The limiting hole 6, the ball 24 and the elastic member 23 form a self-resetting structure. The ball 24 abuts against the limiting hole 6, which means that when the toggle block 21 moves, the ball 24 will enter the limiting hole 6, thereby positioning the toggle block 21. This design can ensure that the toggle block 21 will not move due to external force or vibration when it is in a specific gear position, effectively improving the stability of the switch. At the same time, the design of the limiting hole 6 can provide clear operational feedback. The user can sense whether the toggle block 21 reaches the predetermined position by feel, effectively improving the user's operating experience. Specifically, the number of the limiting holes 6 in each group is at least two, which means that each group of control circuits has at least two gears. The number of the limiting holes 6 in each group corresponds to the number of gears, and the number of groups of the limiting holes 6 corresponds to the number of groups of the toggle assembly 2.

[0032] Furthermore, a lever hole 42 is provided on one side of the housing 4, and the number of the lever holes 42 corresponds to the number of the toggle blocks 21. The lever hole 42 is used to allow the lever 211 of the toggle block 21 to extend outside the housing 4 to facilitate user operation. The number of the lever holes 42 corresponds to the number of toggle blocks 21, meaning that for each additional toggle block 21, a corresponding lever hole 42 is added. This one-to-one design ensures that each toggle block 21 can independently control a group of circuits, and the control status of each group of circuits can be intuitively seen from the appearance, effectively improving the accuracy and convenience of operating the switch.

[0033] Furthermore, a second card slot 312 is provided on the side of the terminal board 31, and a matching portion 43 is provided on the lower side of the housing 4. The matching portion 43 includes a second clamping portion 431 that matches the second card slot 312, and a buckle 432 that abuts against the lower side of the terminal board 31. When the terminal board 31 and the housing 4 are fixed, the second clamping portion 431 will be clamped into the second card slot 312, thereby fixing the position of the terminal board 31, and the design of the buckle 432 further fixes the terminal board 31. Through the matching of the second card slot 312 and the second clamping portion 431, and the fixation of the buckle 432, the terminal board 31 can be ensured to be firmly installed in the housing 4, preventing displacement or loosening during use. At the same time, the use of this clamping design makes the installation of the terminal board 31 simple, effectively improving the structural stability of the switch and reducing the difficulty of production.

[0034] Furthermore, the contact strip 32 is provided with a limiting portion 323 for fixing the relative position of the contact strip 32 and the terminal board 31, the cross-sectional length of the contact terminal 321 in the horizontal direction is greater than the length of the socket 311 in the horizontal direction, and the cross-sectional length of the conducting terminal 322 in the horizontal direction is less than or equal to the cross-sectional length of the socket 311 in the horizontal direction. The design of the limiting portion 323 can fix the relative position between the contact strip 32 and the terminal board 31, ensuring that the contact strip 32 can be accurately positioned during installation and will not be displaced during use, effectively improving the structural stability of the switch. Furthermore, the cross-sectional length of the conductive terminal 322 in the horizontal direction is less than or equal to the cross-sectional length of the socket 311 in the horizontal direction, and the cross-sectional length of the contact terminal 321 in the horizontal direction is greater than the length of the socket 311 in the horizontal direction. Such a design can ensure that the conductive terminal 322 can be smoothly inserted into the socket 311, but the contact terminal 321 cannot pass through the socket 311, which plays a preliminary limiting role on the contact strip 32. Combined with the limiting portion 323, the relative position between the contact strip 32 and the terminal board 31 is fixed, effectively improving the structural stability and reliability of the switch.
