[0021] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions of the present invention in conjunction with the embodiments. Obviously, the embodiments described are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

They are not intended to indicate or imply that the devices or components referred to must have, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation, and are therefore not to be construed as limitations on the present invention. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0023] like Figure 1-3 It is a structural schematic diagram of a waterproof touch switch in a preferred embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, a waterproof touch switch includes a base 1, a mounting position 11 is provided on the surface of the base 1, a mounting cavity 12 is provided in the mounting position 11, a contact point 15 is fixedly installed on the surface of the mounting cavity 12, a reed 2 is installed in the mounting cavity 12, and the outer wall of the reed 2 is in contact with the surface around the contact point 15, a waterproof membrane 3 is installed in the mounting position 11, and a button 4 is provided above the waterproof membrane 3 in the mounting position 11, a cover plate 5 is provided on the top surface of the base 1, and the cover plate 5 is mutually engaged with the outer wall of the base 1; combined with the structural design of the present invention, by providing a waterproof membrane 3 between the reed 2 and the button 4, the waterproof performance of the touch switch is improved.

[0024] In this embodiment, the top surface of the base 1 is provided with pressing positions 14 on both sides of the installation position 11, and connecting pieces 31 adapted to the pressing positions 14 are fixedly connected to both sides of the outer wall of the waterproof membrane 3, and the connecting pieces 31 are installed in the pressing positions 14.

[0025] In this embodiment, first clamping blocks 13 are fixedly connected to the periphery of the outer wall of the base 1 .

[0026] In this embodiment, a movable opening 54 is provided in the middle of the surface of the cover plate 5, and the front and rear ends of the cover plate 5 are fixedly connected with connecting blocks 52, and the two ends of the connecting block 52 are fixedly connected to the outside with second clamping blocks 53, and the top surface of the second clamping block 53 contacts the bottom surface of the first clamping block 13, thereby forming an interlocking state between the cover plate 5 and the base 1, and the left and right ends of the cover plate 5 are fixedly connected with clamping blocks 51, and the clamping blocks 51 are movably connected in the clamping position 14, and the bottom surface of the clamping block 51 contacts the surface of the connecting piece 31. After the cover plate 5 and the base 1 are interlocked, the connecting piece 31 is pressed by the clamping block 51 to prevent the waterproof membrane 3 from detaching during repeated use of the touch switch.

[0027] In this embodiment, the waterproof membrane 3 and the connecting piece 31 adopt an integrally formed structural design. This structural design increases the connection strength between the waterproof membrane 3 and the connecting piece 31, and effectively prevents the button 4 from repeatedly pressing the reed 2, causing the connection between the waterproof membrane 3 and the connecting piece 31 to crack and lose the waterproof effect.

[0028] In this embodiment, the button 4 includes a mounting plate 41, a pressing block 42 and a contact block 43. The pressing block 42 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate 41, and the pressing block 42 is movable at the movable opening 54. The contact block 43 is fixedly connected to the center of the bottom surface of the mounting plate 41, and the contact block 43 is in contact with the surface of the waterproof membrane 3. Its structural design allows the operator to press the pressing block 42, which is transmitted through the deformation of the mounting plate 41, so that the contact block 43 is in contact with the surface of the waterproof membrane 3 and squeezes the reed 2, thereby completing the function of turning the touch switch on and off.

[0029] The above content is a further detailed description of the present invention in combination with specific implementation methods. It cannot be determined that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to these descriptions. For ordinary technicians in the technical field to which the present invention belongs, they can make several simple deductions or substitutions without departing from the concept of the present invention, which should be regarded as falling within the scope of protection determined by the claims submitted for the present invention.
