[0022] An outer sealing ring 4 is also sleeved on the outer periphery of the housing 3, and a placement groove 23 is opened on the lower end surface of the mounting block 22, so that the outer sealing ring 4 is placed in the placement groove 23, and at the same time, a part of the outer sealing ring 4 overflows from the placement groove 23. When the mounting panel is fixed between the mounting block 22 and the mounting nut 5, the outer sealing ring 4 is pressed against the mounting panel, which has a sealing and shock-absorbing effect on the mounting panel.

[0023] In the examples of this application, refer to Figure 1A button 1 is slidingly arranged inside the shell 3, and an annular groove 21 is opened on the outer peripheral side of the button 1. An inner sealing ring 2 is arranged in the annular groove 21. The inner sealing ring 2 and the annular groove 21 are interference fit. When the button 1 is moving, the inner sealing ring 2 and the inside of the shell 3 are always in a tight state, and the button 1 always maintains a relatively sealed state during the movement in the shell 3.

[0024] In the examples of this application, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a locking structure is provided in cooperation with the interior of the shell 3 and the button 1; the locking structure includes a locking step 12 arranged on the inner circumference side of the shell 3, and the locking step 12 is placed in the middle position inside the shell 3, the end of the locking step 12 away from the base 8 is the inner circle, and the end of the locking step 12 close to the base 8 is the outer circle; a first card slot 13 and a second card slot 14 are respectively provided on the locking step 12, and both ends of the first card slot 13 along the length direction are connected to the inner circle of the locking step 12, and at the same time, both ends of the first card slot 13 along the length direction are symmetrically arranged with the center of the inner circle of the locking step 12 as the axis, and both ends of the second card slot 14 along the length direction are connected to the inner circle of the locking step 12, and both ends of the second card slot 14 along the length direction are symmetrically arranged with the center of the inner circle of the locking step 12 as the axis, the depth of the first card slot 13 is greater than the depth of the second card slot 14, and the first card slot 13 and the second card slot 14 are staggered;

[0025] The locking block 15 is fixedly connected to the lower end surface of the button 1. The locking block 15 is arranged in the outer ring of the locking step 12. The length of the locking block 15 is greater than the diameter of the inner ring of the locking step 12. By rotating the button 1, the locking block 15 can also rotate freely in the outer ring of the locking step 12. The first slot 13 and the second slot 14 are both engaged and adapted with the locking block 15. Pressing the button 1 and rotating the button 1 drive the locking block 15 to rotate along the horizontal plane, realizing the state conversion of the locking block 15 being engaged in the first slot 13 or being engaged in the second slot 14. In the initial state, the locking block 15 is engaged in the first slot 13, and the circuit is in the disconnected state.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a sliding groove 20 is provided on the lower end surface of the transmission frame 6, and there are two sliding grooves 20, and the two sliding grooves 20 are symmetrically arranged. A conductive column 10 is provided in the sliding groove 20, and the conductive column 10 is free to move along the depth direction of the sliding groove 20. Two conductive parts 11 are provided at the bottom end of the base 8. The ends of the two conductive columns 10 away from the bottom of the sliding groove 20 point to the two conductive parts 11 respectively, so that the two conductive columns 10 and the two conductive parts 11 correspond one to one in the vertical direction; a compression spring B 9 is provided between the conductive column 10 and the bottom of the sliding groove 20, so that one end of the compression spring B 9 is connected to the bottom of the sliding groove 20, and the other end is fixedly connected to the conductive column 10.

[0029] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: in the initial state, the locking block 15 is clamped in the first slot 13, and a downward pressing force is applied to the button 1. The button 1 pushes the transmission frame 6 to move downward, and the compression spring A 7 is compressed. After a certain stroke, the conductive member 11 and the conductive column 10 are in contact, and the circuit is turned on. At the same time, the compression spring B 9 is compressed, so that the conductive member 11 and the conductive column 10 are in effective contact, and the conductive member 11 and the conductive column 10 are prevented from excessive friction and wear. At this time, the locking block 15 is disengaged from the first slot 13. By rotating the button 1, the locking block 15 is rotated in the horizontal direction to align the locking block 15 with the position of the second slot 14. At the same time, while continuing to press the button When the button 1 is pressed downward, the locking block 15 is disengaged from the second slot 14, and the button 1 is rotated so that the locking block 15 is aligned with the first slot 13. Similarly, the compression spring A 7 pushes the locking block 15 into the first slot 13, the circuit is disconnected, and the switch is reset. The switch has the characteristic of reliable locking, which enhances the switch's ability to resist environmental vibration and impact, and also improves the reliability of the switch.
