Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wiring devices, in particular to a toggle button structure and a quick wiring mechanism. Background Art
[0002] This section merely provides background information related to the present disclosure and may not constitute prior art.
[0003] Currently, when inserting wires into sockets, they are typically locked with screws, requiring specialized tools and expertise. During wiring, the wires are inserted between the screws and the socket piece, and then a specialized screwdriver is used. The torque required to tighten the screws is critical, making the operation inconvenient and slow, resulting in wasted time, labor, and efficiency.
[0004] In order to solve this technical problem, the applicant first applied for a utility model patent with the authorization announcement number CN221596768U. When performing wiring operations, the operator only needs to drive the toggle structure to achieve the locking of the wire. This mechanism needs to be operated in accordance with the operating requirements when wiring and removing the wire. After the wire is inserted into the reserved space, it is necessary to press the button to loosen the buckle first, and then push the toggle lever to rotate, so as to lock the wire. If after the wire is inserted into the reserved space, the user mistakenly pushes the toggle lever without pressing the button, because the hook of the toggle lever and the hook positioning part are in a hooked positioning state, when the toggle lever is forcibly pushed, the hook on the button will be forcibly disengaged from the hook positioning part on the shell, and the hook and / or the hook positioning part will easily break. Utility Model Content
[0005] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the defect that the buckle structure breaks when the user misoperates the wiring mechanism, thereby providing a toggle button structure and a quick wiring mechanism.
[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is:

[0011] When the button is not pressed, the second protrusion abuts against the first protrusion to limit the lever from swinging toward the side close to the first protrusion; when the button is pressed, the second protrusion moves below the first protrusion and is offset from the first protrusion to allow the lever to swing toward the side close to the first protrusion.
[0012] To further optimize the technical solution, a second protrusion sliding hole is provided on the side wall of the button relative to the first protrusion, and the second protrusion passes through the second protrusion sliding hole and can slide along the second protrusion sliding hole.
[0013] Further optimizing the technical solution, a first protrusion receiving groove is provided on the side wall of the button opposite to the first protrusion, and the first protrusion receiving groove is located above the second protrusion;
[0014] When the button is pressed and the shift rod is able to swing toward the side close to the first protrusion, the first protrusion passes through the second protrusion sliding hole and is accommodated in the first protrusion accommodating groove.

[0019] To further optimize the technical solution, the angle between the second end face of the accommodating groove and the third end face of the accommodating groove is greater than the angle between the upper end face of the first protrusion and the side face of the first protrusion, so that when the first protrusion is accommodated in the first protrusion accommodating groove, there is a distance between the third end face of the accommodating groove and the upper end face of the first protrusion.
[0020] To further optimize the technical solution, both the first raised side surface and the second raised side surface are vertical surfaces.
[0021] To further optimize the technical solution, the lower end surface of the first protrusion is an inclined surface that gradually slopes downward from an end close to the second protrusion to an end away from the second protrusion.
[0022] To further optimize the technical solution, a long hole is opened on the side wall of the key, and the direction of the long axis of the long hole is the same as the moving direction of the key in the lever; a limiting column is provided inside the lever, and the limiting column passes through the long hole, and the limiting column is suitable for limiting the movable stroke of the key.
[0023] A quick connection mechanism, comprising:
[0024] The toggle button structure has a housing with a wire insertion hole suitable for inserting a wire;
[0025] The elastic wire-holding structure is provided on the housing and has an unlocked state and a locked state. When the elastic wire-holding structure is in the unlocked state, the elastic wire-holding structure provides a reserved space for the wire, and the reserved space is suitable for allowing the wire to be inserted into the housing through the wire insertion hole. When the elastic wire-holding structure is in the locked state, the elastic wire-holding structure is suitable for squeezing the wire inserted into the housing to lock the wire.
[0026] The part of the toggle lever of the toggle button structure disposed inside the housing abuts against the elastic wire-clamping structure, and the toggle lever is suitable for controlling the switching between the unlocking state and the locking state of the elastic wire-clamping structure.
[0027] Further optimizing the technical solution, the elastic wire clamping structure includes:
[0028] The plug-in terminal is arranged inside the housing;
[0029] The spring-type wire clamping terminal is bent and elastic, with one end fixed on the plug-in terminal and the other end used to lock the wire; the spring-type wire clamping terminal has an unlocked state in which the wire can be inserted and a locked state in which the wire can be locked; when the spring-type wire clamping terminal is in the unlocked state, the second protrusion is in relative abutment with the first protrusion, and the shifting rod squeezes the spring-type wire clamping terminal; when the spring-type wire clamping terminal is in the locked state, the shifting rod swings to the side away from the spring-type wire clamping terminal, and the second protrusion moves to the bottom of the first protrusion and is misaligned with the first protrusion.
[0030] Further optimizing the technical solution, the spring-type clamping terminal includes:

[0032] an extrusion segment connected to the positioning segment and forming an unclosed extrusion ring with the positioning segment, wherein one end of the extrusion ring away from the positioning segment abuts against the side wall of the shifting rod, and the extrusion ring has an expanded configuration in an expanded state and a compressed configuration in an extruded state;
[0033] The clamping section is connected to the extrusion section and is in the shape of a clamping hook.
[0034] The technical solution of this utility model has the following advantages:
[0035] 1. This utility model provides a toggle button structure. When the button is not pressed, the second protrusion abuts against the first protrusion, effectively limiting the swing of the lever toward the first protrusion. This increases the stability of the structure and prevents accidental push of the lever, leading to erroneous operation. Furthermore, the coordination of the first and second protrusions ensures the stability of the lever in a specific position, improving operational accuracy.
[0036] When the button is pressed, the second protrusion moves below the first protrusion and shifts with it, allowing the lever to swing closer to the first protrusion. Simply pressing the button and shifting the second protrusion away from the first allows the lever to swing easily, improving the user experience.
[0037] 2. The present invention provides a toggle button structure, wherein a first protrusion receiving groove is provided on the side wall of the button opposite the first protrusion, and the first protrusion receiving groove is located above the second protrusion. When the button is pressed, the first protrusion passes through the second protrusion sliding hole and enters the first protrusion receiving groove, forming a reliable locking mechanism, ensuring that the toggle lever remains stable in the required position and will not loosen due to external forces or vibration. Furthermore, after the first protrusion is accommodated in the first protrusion receiving groove, the elastic component generates an upward squeezing force on the button, generating a squeezing force between the first protrusion and the second protrusion, thereby locking the two.
[0038] 3. The toggle button structure provided by this utility model has an angle between the first and second end surfaces of the receiving groove that is equal to the angle between the lower end surface of the first protrusion and the side surface of the first protrusion. This ensures that the first protrusion can smoothly enter and firmly embed within the first protrusion receiving groove, avoiding any gaps or misalignment. The precise geometric matching ensures a tight fit between the first protrusion and the first protrusion receiving groove, improving the reliability and stability of the locking.
[0039] 4. The utility model provides a toggle button structure, in which the angle between the second end face of the accommodating groove and the third end face of the accommodating groove is greater than the angle between the upper end face of the first protrusion and the side face of the first protrusion, so that when the first protrusion is accommodated in the first protrusion accommodating groove, there is a distance between the third end face of the accommodating groove and the upper end face of the first protrusion, so that when the user presses the button, the upper end face of the second protrusion and the lower end face of the first protrusion are no longer squeezed, and the toggle lever can be easily pushed at this time, reducing the operating resistance.
[0040] 5. The present invention provides a toggle button structure in which both the first and second raised side surfaces are vertical. The vertical surfaces enhance stability during contact between the first and second protrusions, reducing the instability associated with inclined surfaces. The vertical surfaces ensure uniform force distribution across the contact surface, preventing wear or deformation of the first and / or second protrusions due to excessive localized pressure.
[0041] 6. This utility model provides a toggle button structure in which the lower end surface of the first protrusion is a sloped surface that gradually slopes downward from the end closest to the second protrusion to the end farther from the second protrusion. This sloped surface design allows the first protrusion to be smoothly guided into the first protrusion receiving groove, reducing resistance during insertion and facilitating smoother operation.
[0042] 7. The utility model provides a toggle button structure, in which a long hole is provided on the side wall of the button, and the long axis direction of the long hole is the same as the movement direction of the button in the toggle rod. A limit column is provided inside the toggle rod, and the limit column passes through the long hole. The limit column is suitable for limiting the movable stroke of the button, ensuring that the button can only move within a predetermined track, thereby preventing the button from being offset or stuck during operation. The design of the limit column and the long hole makes the button more stable when moving, reduces shaking and instability factors, and improves the reliability and consistency of operation.
[0043] 8. The utility model provides a quick wiring mechanism that utilizes a lever extending from a housing to control the operating state of an elastic wire-holding structure, making it easy for operators to operate. Movement of the lever drives the elastic wire-holding structure, which squeezes the wires to achieve a wire-locking function. Compared to traditional screw-locking methods, the utility model does not require any wiring tools. Operators only need to drive the lever to lock the wires, making wiring easier for ordinary household personnel, improving wiring efficiency and saving labor. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0056] The following is a clear and complete description of the technical solution of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some 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 any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0057] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "center", "up", "down", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating directions or positional relationships, are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the present invention.
[0058] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; mechanical connections, electrical connections; direct connections, indirect connections through an intermediate medium, and internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0059] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0060] Example 1
[0061] Combine Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this embodiment discloses a toggle button structure comprising a housing 1, a lever 2, and a key 3. The housing 1 has a lever movable hole 12, with a first protrusion 14 disposed on the inner sidewall of the lever movable hole 12. The lever 2 extends from the lever movable hole 12 into the interior of the housing 1. The bottom end of the lever 2 is rotatably connected to the interior of the housing 1, and the top end of the lever 2 extends from the lever movable hole 12. The key 3 is slidably mounted within the lever 2 via an elastic component. A second protrusion 32 is disposed on the sidewall of the key 3. The second protrusion 32 extends from the sidewall of the lever 2 and can slide within the lever 2 with the key 3.
[0062] In the aforementioned toggle button structure, when key 3 is not pressed, second protrusion 32 abuts against first protrusion 14, effectively preventing lever 2 from swinging toward first protrusion 14. This increases the overall stability of the structure and prevents accidental pushing of lever 2, which could lead to erroneous operation. Furthermore, the coordination between first protrusion 14 and second protrusion 32 ensures the stability of lever 2 in a specific position, improving operational accuracy.
[0063] When the button 3 is pressed, the second protrusion 32 moves below the first protrusion 14 and is offset from the first protrusion 14, allowing the lever 2 to swing toward the side closer to the first protrusion 14. The user only needs to press the button 3 to offset the second protrusion 32 from the first protrusion 14, and the lever 2 can be easily swung, thereby improving the user experience.
[0064] It should be noted that the above-mentioned toggle button structure achieves the unity of stability, reliability and ease of operation through ingenious mechanical design, and is suitable for various occasions requiring precise control and prevention of misoperation, and is not limited to quick wiring mechanisms.
[0065] In some embodiments, a second protrusion sliding hole 23 is defined on a side wall of the button 3 opposite to the first protrusion 14 , and the second protrusion 32 passes through the second protrusion sliding hole 23 and can slide along the second protrusion sliding hole 23 .
[0066] A first protrusion receiving groove 33 is provided on the side wall of the button 3 opposite the first protrusion 14. The first protrusion receiving groove 33 is located above the second protrusion 32. When the button 3 is pressed and the lever 2 is able to swing toward the side closer to the first protrusion 14, the first protrusion 14 passes through the second protrusion sliding hole 23 and is received in the first protrusion receiving groove 33.
[0067] In this embodiment, when the button 3 is pressed, the first protrusion 14 passes through the second protrusion sliding hole 23 and enters the first protrusion receiving groove 33, forming a reliable locking mechanism that ensures that the lever 2 remains stable in the desired position and prevents it from loosening due to external forces or vibration. Furthermore, after the first protrusion 14 is received in the first protrusion receiving groove 33, the elastic component exerts an upward pressure on the button 3, creating a compressive force between the first protrusion 14 and the second protrusion 32, locking them together. This locking mechanism prevents the lever 2 from easily changing position unless the button 3 is pressed again, reducing the risk of misoperation.
[0068] In some embodiments, the first protrusion 14 has a first protrusion upper end surface 141, a first protrusion lower end surface 142, and a first protrusion side surface 143. The first protrusion side surface 143 is the side of the first protrusion corresponding to the second protrusion 32. The second protrusion 32 has a second protrusion upper end surface 321, a second protrusion lower end surface 322, and a second protrusion side surface 323. The second protrusion side surface 323 is the side of the second protrusion corresponding to the first protrusion 14. The first protrusion receiving groove 33 has a first receiving groove end surface 331, a second receiving groove end surface 332, and a third receiving groove end surface 333, which are connected in sequence. The second protrusion upper end surface 321 is coplanar with the receiving groove first end surface 331.
[0069] The angle between the first end surface 331 and the second end surface 332 of the receiving groove is equal to the angle between the first protrusion lower end surface 142 and the first protrusion side surface 143. This ensures that the first protrusion 14 fits smoothly into the first protrusion receiving groove 33 and is securely embedded therein, avoiding any gaps or misalignment. The precise geometric matching ensures a tight fit between the first protrusion 14 and the first protrusion receiving groove 33, improving the reliability and stability of the locking.
[0070] The angle between the second end face 332 of the accommodating groove and the third end face 333 of the accommodating groove is greater than the angle between the first protrusion upper end face 141 and the first protrusion side face 143, so that when the first protrusion 14 is accommodated in the first protrusion accommodating groove 33, there is a distance between the third end face 333 of the accommodating groove and the first protrusion upper end face 141, so that when the user presses the button 3, the second protrusion upper end face 321 and the first protrusion lower end face 142 are no longer squeezed, and the lever 2 can be easily pushed at this time, reducing the operating resistance.
[0071] In some embodiments, both first protrusion side surface 143 and second protrusion side surface 323 are vertical surfaces. The vertical surface design provides greater stability when the first protrusion 14 and the second protrusion 32 are in contact, reducing the instability caused by inclined surfaces. The vertical surfaces ensure uniform distribution of force across the contact surface, preventing wear or deformation of the first protrusion 14 and / or the second protrusion 32 due to excessive localized pressure.
[0072] In some embodiments, the lower end surface 142 of the first protrusion is a sloped surface that gradually slopes downward from the end closest to the second protrusion to the end farther from the second protrusion. In this embodiment, the sloped surface design allows the first protrusion 14 to be smoothly guided as it enters the first protrusion receiving groove 33, reducing resistance during insertion and facilitating smoother operation. Furthermore, after the first protrusion 14 is received in the first protrusion receiving groove 33, the lever 2 is tilted. Even if the user mistakenly pushes the lever 2 in the opposite direction without pressing the button 3, the lever 2 can still be pushed (simply overcoming the friction between the lower end surface 142 of the first protrusion and the upper end surface 321 of the second protrusion). Compared to a snap-fit connection, even if the user makes an operation mistake, the component will not be damaged.
[0073] In some embodiments, a long hole 31 is formed in the side wall of the key 3, with the long axis of the long hole 31 aligning with the direction of movement of the key 3 within the lever 2. A limit post 24 is disposed within the lever 2, extending through the long hole 31. In this embodiment, the limit post 24 is adapted to limit the travel of the key 3, ensuring that the key 3 can only move within a predetermined trajectory, thereby preventing the key 3 from shifting or becoming stuck during operation. The design of the limit post 24 and the long hole 31 ensures smoother movement of the key 3, reduces shaking and instability, and improves operational reliability and consistency.
[0074] In some embodiments, the lever 2 is divided into a lever rotation portion 21 and a button positioning portion 22. The bottom of the lever rotation portion 21 is rotatably connected to the housing via a rotating shaft 25. The top surface of the lever positioning portion 13 is provided with a groove, and the rotating shaft 25 is placed in the groove. The lever positioning portion 13 supports the rotating shaft 25.
[0075] The button positioning portion 22 is provided with a button accommodating groove and a spring accommodating groove. The button accommodating groove is communicated with the spring accommodating groove and the second protruding sliding hole 23 respectively. The button 3 is arranged in the button accommodating groove and partially inserted into the spring accommodating groove.
[0076] The elastic component includes a spring 4 , one end of the spring 4 is connected to the bottom wall of the spring accommodating groove, and the other end of the spring 4 is connected to the bottom wall of the button 3 .
[0077] Example 2
[0078] Combine Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this embodiment discloses a quick connection mechanism, including a toggle button structure and an elastic wire-clamping structure.
[0079] The housing 1 of the toggle button structure has a wire insertion hole 11 suitable for inserting the wire 7 .
[0080] The elastic wire-holding structure is arranged on the housing 1 and has an unlocked state and a locked state; when the elastic wire-holding structure is in the unlocked state, the elastic wire-holding structure provides a reserved space for the wire 7, and the reserved space is suitable for allowing the wire to be inserted into the interior of the housing 1 from the wire insertion hole 11; when the elastic wire-holding structure is in the locked state, the elastic wire-holding structure is suitable for squeezing the wire 7 inserted into the interior of the housing 1 to lock the wire 7.
[0081] The part of the toggle lever 2 of the toggle button structure disposed inside the housing 1 abuts against the elastic wire-locking structure. The toggle lever 2 is adapted to control the switching between the unlocking state and the locking state of the elastic wire-locking structure.
[0082] The aforementioned quick-connect mechanism utilizes a lever 2 extending from the housing to control the operating state of the elastic wire-holding structure, making it easy for the operator to operate. Movement of the lever 2 drives the elastic wire-holding structure, which squeezes the wire to achieve the wire-locking function. Compared to traditional screw-locking methods, the present invention does not require any wiring tools. The operator simply activates the lever 2 to lock the wire. This makes wiring easier for ordinary household personnel, improving wiring efficiency and saving labor.
[0083] It should be noted that the housing 1 in this embodiment can be a socket housing or a housing of other products. This embodiment can be applied to socket products, but is not limited to socket products.
[0084] In some embodiments, the elastic wire clamping structure includes a plug-in terminal 6 and a spring-type wire clamping terminal 5. The plug-in terminal 6 is arranged inside the housing 1. The spring-type wire clamping terminal 5 is bent and elastic, one end of which is fixed on the plug-in terminal 6, and the other end is used to lock the wire 7. The spring-type wire clamping terminal 5 has an unlocked state in which the wire can be inserted and a locked state in which the wire can be locked. When the spring-type wire clamping terminal 5 is in the unlocked state, the second protrusion 32 is in relative contact with the first protrusion 14, and the lever 2 squeezes the spring-type wire clamping terminal 5. When the spring-type wire clamping terminal 5 is in the locked state, the lever 2 swings to the side away from the spring-type wire clamping terminal 5, and the second protrusion 32 moves to the bottom of the first protrusion 14 and is misaligned with the first protrusion 14.
[0085] The spring-type clamping terminal 5 includes a positioning section 51, an extrusion section 52, and a clamping section 53. The positioning section 51 is connected to the plug terminal 6. The extrusion section 52 is connected to the positioning section 51 and forms an unclosed extrusion ring with the positioning section 51. The end of the extrusion ring, away from the positioning section 51, abuts the side wall of the lever 2. The extrusion ring has an expanded configuration in an expanded state and a compressed configuration in an extruded state. The clamping section 53 is connected to the extrusion section 52 and is hook-shaped.
[0086] In this embodiment, the engaging section 53 is configured as a hook to increase the contact area with the wire. When clamped, the engaging section 53 can penetrate the wire, forming a barb during wire extraction, thereby enhancing the wire's resistance to extraction. In practice, if the clamping force is not a consideration, the engaging section 53 can be configured flat. When the lever presses the extrusion ring to the left, the extrusion ring is compressed. At this time, the extrusion ring is in a compressed configuration, and the engaging section 53 is pressed toward the side away from the positioning section 51, thereby preventing the engaging section 53 from locking the wire. When the button 3 is pressed, the extrusion ring expands under the action of the elastic force. At this time, the extrusion ring is in an expanded configuration, pushing the lever to swing to the right, and the engaging section 53 is pressed toward the side closer to the positioning section 51, thereby locking the wire. Using the method in this embodiment to lock the wire is very convenient, requiring only controlling the state of the extrusion ring.
[0087] The wiring process of the wires in the present invention is as follows:
[0088] The user inserts the wire 7 into the wire insertion hole 11. Pressing the button releases the fit between the first protrusion 14 and the second protrusion 32. The first protrusion 14 and the second protrusion 32 no longer abut each other, and the first protrusion 14 and the second protrusion 32 become misaligned. Pushing the lever 2 toward the first protrusion 14 causes the spring-type wire-locking terminal 5 to expand rightward, driving the engaging section 53 rightward. The hook of the engaging section 53 contacts the wire 7, and the engaging section 53 and the insert terminal 6 work together to secure the wire 7.
[0089] The wire taking process of the utility model is as follows:
[0090] The user presses button 3 downward (or does not need to do this), pushing lever 2 in the opposite direction, causing the spring-type wire-holding terminal to reset. The engaging section 53 now moves in the opposite direction of wire 7, disengaging it. The spring 4 built into lever 2 pushes button 3 upward due to its elastic force. When lever 2 swings to the vertical position, the second protrusion 32 on button 3 abuts and engages with the first protrusion 14 on the housing, unlocking the spring-type wire-holding terminal. The reserved space is free of wire 7, allowing it to be easily removed.
[0091] Misoperation description: After the user inserts the wire 7 into the wire insertion hole 11, if the user pushes the lever 2 by mistake, the second protrusion on the button and the first protrusion on the base are completely stuck together, and the user can only press the button 3 to prevent the user from misoperating.
[0092] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for clarity of explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation methods.
