DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0033] The following disclosure provides many different embodiments or examples for implementing different structures of the present invention. To simplify the disclosure of the present invention, the components and configurations of specific examples are described below. Of course, these are merely examples and are not intended to limit the present invention. In addition, the present invention may repeat reference numbers and / or letters in different examples. This repetition is for the purpose of simplicity and clarity and does not in itself indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or configurations discussed.

[0034] A push button is a component used to operate a toggle switch and is widely used in various household appliances and electronic devices. In some application scenarios, a push button needs to be used in conjunction with a toggle switch to achieve the on / off function of the switch.

[0035] Since the push button requires a certain operating space during installation, when the operating space is relatively limited, the existing push button usually needs to be installed at a certain angle and then rotated to achieve assembly with the toggle switch, resulting in a relatively complicated installation process of the push button.

[0036] Therefore, in order to solve the technical problem that the existing push button usually needs to be installed at a certain angle and then rotated to achieve assembly with the toggle switch, which makes the installation process of the push button relatively complicated, the present application provides a push button switch, which can improve the convenience of installation of the push button switch and thereby improve the assembly efficiency of the push button switch. Please refer to the following embodiments for details.

[0037] like Figure 1-Figure 7As shown, the push button switch 10 provided in the present application is applied to an electronic device 01, wherein the electronic device 01 includes a housing 101 and a toggle switch 102, the housing 101 is provided with a mounting through hole 1011, the toggle switch 102 is installed in the housing 101, the toggle switch 102 has a toggle rod 1021, and the push button switch 10 is located in the housing 101 and partially protrudes from the mounting through hole 1011.

[0038] The push button switch 10 includes a push button base 100 and a push button 200 .

[0039] The push button base 100 can be located in the housing 101 and is arranged opposite to the installation through hole 1011 . The push button base 100 is provided with a limiting through hole 110 .

[0040] The push button 200 and the push button base 100 are formed separately, and the push button 200 includes a push button body 210 and an elastic clamping portion 220 connected to each other. The push button body 210 protrudes from the mounting through hole 1011, and the push button base 100 abuts between the elastic clamping portion 220 and the push button body 210. The elastic clamping portion 220 can be sequentially passed through the mounting through hole 1011 and the limit through hole 110 along the axial direction of the mounting through hole 1011 and be clamped with the toggle rod 1021 of the toggle switch 102.

[0041] In this way, since the push button switch 10 of the present application is composed of the push button 200 and the push button base 100 as separate bodies, the push button 200 and the push button base 100 can be installed independently. Therefore, when the operating space is relatively limited, the push button switch 10 of the present application can first install the push button base 100 and the shell 101, and then assemble the push button 200 and the push button base 100. In this way, the push button 200 can be directly passed through the mounting through hole 1011 and the limit through hole 110 in sequence along the axial direction of the mounting through hole 1011 through the elastic clamping portion 220, and clamped with the toggle rod 1021 of the toggle switch 102. There is no need for the complicated process of installing at a certain angle and then rotating and clamping, as with the push button 200 in the prior art. This makes the installation of the push button switch 10 easier, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the push button switch 10. Secondly, since the push button base 100 abuts between the elastic clamping portion 220 and the push button body 210, it helps to improve the stability of the connection between the push button 200 and the toggle switch 102, so that the push button 200 is not likely to loosen or fall during use.

[0042] When installing the push button switch 10, the elastic clamping portion 220 can be sequentially passed through the mounting through hole 1011 and the limiting through hole 110 along the axial direction of the mounting through hole 1011 and clamped with the toggle rod 1021 of the toggle switch 102. For example, the push button base 100 can be first installed on the inner side of the mounting through hole 1011, and then the toggle switch 102 can be installed in the corresponding position, and then the push button 200 can be inserted into the limiting through hole 110 of the push button base 100 perpendicular to the mounting through hole 1011, so that the toggle rod 1021 of the toggle switch 102 is clamped with the elastic clamping portion 220.

[0043] In some embodiments, the push button 200 can be connected to the push button base 100 by snap-fitting, plugging, or threading.

[0044] For example, in some embodiments, one of the push button base 100 and the push button body 210 is provided with a first fixing portion 231 , and the other is provided with a second fixing portion 232 , and the second fixing portion 232 is fixedly matched with the first fixing portion 231 .

[0045] That is, the push button base 100 may be provided with a first fixing portion 231 and the push button body 210 may be provided with a second fixing portion 232 ; or, the push button body 210 may be provided with a first fixing portion 231 and the push button base 100 may be provided with a second fixing portion 232 .

[0046] In some embodiments, one of the first fixing portion 231 and the second fixing portion 232 is a plug-in post, and the other is a plug-in slot.

[0047] For example, if the first fixing portion 231 is a plug-in column, the second fixing portion 232 is a plug-in slot; or if the first fixing portion 231 is a plug-in slot, the second fixing portion 232 is a plug-in column;

[0048] That is to say, the push button seat 100 may be provided with an inserting column or an inserting slot, and the push button body 210 may be provided with an inserting slot or an inserting column correspondingly.

[0049] Preferably, the push button base 100 can be provided with a plug-in slot, and the push button body 210 can be provided with a plug-in column. In this way, through the cooperation between the plug-in column and the plug-in slot, not only the stability of the connection between the push button 200 and the push button base 100 can be improved, but also the overall structure of the push button switch 10 can be made more compact.

[0050] In some embodiments, the elastic snap-fit ​​portion 220 includes a first elastic snap-fit ​​221 and a second elastic snap-fit ​​222. The first elastic snap-fit ​​221 and the second elastic snap-fit ​​222 are both connected to the push button body 210 and pass through the limiting through hole 110. The push button base 100 is in contact between the push button body 210 and the first elastic snap-fit ​​221 and the second elastic snap-fit ​​222. The first elastic snap-fit ​​221, the second elastic snap-fit ​​222 and the push button body 210 are jointly enclosed to form a snap-fit ​​groove 223, which is used to snap into contact with the toggle rod 1021.

[0051] Among them, the first elastic clip 221 and the second elastic clip 222 both have a certain elasticity and are easy to deform during the installation process, so that the first elastic clip 221 and the second elastic clip 222 can be easily passed through the installation hole 1011 along the axial direction of the installation hole 1011.

[0052] In this way, when installing the push button 200, the snap-fit ​​groove 223 can be aligned with the toggle rod 1021, and then the first elastic snap 221 and the second elastic snap 222 can be passed through the limiting through hole 110 of the push button base 100, so that the toggle rod 1021 is located in the snap-fit ​​groove 223 between the first elastic snap 221 and the second elastic snap 222, and moves up and down in the snap-fit ​​groove 223 under the action of external force to switch the working state of the electronic device 01.

[0053] In addition, the first elastic clip 221 and the second elastic clip 222 work together to limit the movement range of the toggle rod 1021 in the snap-on groove 223, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the operation of the toggle rod 1021, and also reducing the friction between the toggle rod 1021 and other components, thereby reducing wear and extending the service life.

[0054] In some embodiments, the first elastic buckle 221 includes a first connecting segment 2211 and a second connecting segment 2212 , the first connecting segment 2211 is connected to the second connecting segment 2212 and the push button body 210 , and the second connecting segment 2212 is located between the first connecting segment 2211 and the second elastic buckle 222 .

[0055] The second connecting segment 2212 is located at one end of the first connecting segment 2211 , forms a certain angle or shape with the first connecting segment 2211 , and is located away from the second elastic buckle 222 .

[0056] The second elastic buckle 222 includes a third connecting segment 2221 and a fourth connecting segment 2222 . The third connecting segment 2221 is connected to the fourth connecting segment 2222 and the push button body 210 . The fourth connecting segment 2222 is located between the third connecting segment 2221 and the first elastic buckle 221 .

[0057] The fourth connecting segment 2222 is located at one end of the third connecting segment 2221 , forms a certain angle or shape with the third connecting segment 2221 , and is located away from the first elastic buckle 221 .

[0058] The first connecting section 2211 and the third connecting section 2221 are passed through the limiting through hole 110 , and the push button base 100 abuts against the push button body 210 and between the second connecting section 2212 and the fourth connecting section 2222 .

[0059] In this way, by placing the push button base 100 in contact with the push button body 210 and between the second connecting section 2212 and the fourth connecting section 2222 , the stability of the connection between the push button base 100 and the push button 200 can be improved.

[0060] In some embodiments, the maximum distance between the second connecting segment 2212 and the fourth connecting segment 2222 is greater than the length of the limiting through hole 110 .

[0061] In this way, the first elastic buckle 221 and the second elastic buckle 222 on the push button body 210 can be prevented from falling off from the limiting through hole 110, thereby helping to improve the stability of the connection between the push button base 100 and the push button 200.

[0062] In some embodiments, the push button base 100 and the push button body 210 are combined to form a sliding groove 240 , and the sliding groove 240 is used to slide with the slider of the housing 101 of the electronic device 01 .

[0063] In this way, when the push button body 210 is pushed up and down under the action of external force, thereby driving the push button switch 10 as a whole to move along the radial direction of the mounting hole 1011, since the sliding groove 240 and the slider on the shell 101 are tightly matched in the axial direction of the mounting hole 1011, it helps to reduce the axial movement of the push button switch 10 along the mounting hole 1011, and thus reduce the unnecessary displacement of the push button switch 10 in the direction perpendicular to the mounting hole 1011, thereby improving the stability and accuracy of the operation of the push button switch 10.

[0064] In some embodiments, the push button body 210 is provided with an anti-slip structure 250 . The anti-slip structure 250 is located on a side of the push button body 210 facing away from the push button base 100 .

[0065] In this way, the anti-slip structure 250 increases the friction coefficient of the contact surface between the hand and the push button body 210 , thereby reducing hand slippage during operation, thereby improving the stability of the push button 200 operation.

[0066] In some embodiments, the anti-slip structure 250 includes a plurality of anti-slip convex bumps 251 , and the anti-slip convex bumps 251 are arranged in an array.

[0067] In this way, the array arrangement of the anti-slip bumps 251 allows the user to increase the friction coefficient between the contact surface of the hand and the push button body 210 at any position of the push button switch 10, reducing hand slippage. In addition, it can also improve the appearance of the push button switch 10.

[0068] In some embodiments, the anti-slip structure 250 may also be a frosted surface provided on the push button body 210 .

[0069] The present application also provides an electronic device 01 , comprising a housing 101 , a toggle switch 102 , and the push button switch 10 mentioned in the above embodiment.

[0070] Among them, the shell 101 is provided with a mounting through hole 1011; the toggle switch 102 is installed on the shell 101, and the toggle switch 102 is provided with a toggle rod 1021; the elastic clamping portion 220 is clamped with the toggle rod 1021, and the push button body 210 protrudes from the mounting through hole 1011, and the push button body 210 and the push button base 100 are both slidably matched with the shell 101.

[0071] Since the push button switch 10 of the present application is composed of the push button 200 and the push button base 100 as separate bodies, the push button 200 and the push button base 100 can be installed independently. Therefore, when the operating space is relatively limited, the push button switch 10 of the present application can first install the push button base 100 and the shell 101, and then assemble the push button 200 and the push button base 100. In this way, the push button 200 can be directly passed through the mounting through hole 1011 and the limit through hole 110 in sequence along the axial direction of the mounting through hole 1011 through the elastic clamping portion 220, and clamped with the toggle rod 1021 of the toggle switch 102. There is no need for the complicated process of installing at a certain angle and then rotating and clamping, as with the push button 200 in the prior art. This makes the installation of the push button switch 10 easier, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the push button switch 10. Secondly, since the push button base 100 abuts between the elastic clamping portion 220 and the push button body 210, it helps to improve the stability of the connection between the push button 200 and the toggle switch 102, so that the push button 200 is not likely to loosen during use.
