[0002] With the continuous development of electronic products and the popularization of intelligent technology, touch buttons have become widely used in various electronic devices. Capacitive touch buttons have become the preferred choice for many electronic products due to their high sensitivity, long service life, and beautiful design. However, during the production and assembly process, the assembly accuracy and stability of capacitive touch buttons have a significant impact on their performance.
[0003] Traditional capacitive touch buttons are typically assembled using direct soldering, which presents several challenges. For example, the small size and high-density layout of components make soldering difficult, leading to issues like loose solder joints or poor solder joints, which in turn impact the button's lifespan and sensitivity. Furthermore, traditional soldering methods lack flexibility during production, making it difficult to adapt to the needs of diverse products.
[0004] To improve production efficiency and assembly accuracy while ensuring the sensitivity and stability of capacitive touch buttons, the use of surface mount technology (SMT) has become a trend. By providing soldering points and suction caps on the capacitive touch button body, SMT technology makes component assembly more convenient and precise. However, existing SMT components still have some design shortcomings, such as interference from the capacitive effect and loose fixings. Summary of the Invention

[0031] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the present invention is a capacitive touch button SMT device, comprising a capacitive touch button body 1, wherein the four corners thereof are provided with soldering parts for SMT, and the upper end surface of the capacitive touch button body 1 is provided with at least one opening window 5;
[0032] It also includes a process adsorption cover 2, which is detachably mounted on the upper end of the capacitive touch button body 1 and is used for component adsorption during SMT patching. Notches 9 are set on both sides of the process adsorption cover 2.
[0033] Specifically, the capacitive touch button body 1 is made of a weldable material such as nickel silver, and is used for SMT welding at the four corners; the four side surfaces have an arch structure 3 to reduce the capacitance between it and other surrounding metals and improve the sensitivity of the capacitive touch button;
[0034] Small holes 6 are provided on each of the four sides to fix the process adsorption cover 2, ensuring assembly accuracy and strength during SMT adsorption and preventing it from falling.
