[0028] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. Example

[0029] See Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a pop-up switch structure for a table-controlled drainer is connected to a sealing plug inside the drainer body 1 via a steel wire. It includes a cylindrical switch housing 2, a spring 3, a button body 4, a pop-up switch button body 5, a switch housing cover 6, and a button cap 7. In this embodiment, both the button body and the pop-up switch button body are plastic structures.

[0030] Furthermore, in practical applications, a limiting protrusion ring is provided at one end of the inner wall of the cylindrical switch housing; during assembly, the button body is placed inside the cylindrical switch housing, and the spring is placed between the button body and the limiting protrusion ring; the spring is mainly used for the button body to move up and down inside the cylindrical switch housing, thereby driving the steel wire to move, so as to realize the action of the sealing plug to complete the switch operation.

[0031] During assembly, the switch housing cover is fixed to the end of the cylindrical switch housing; the switch housing and the cylindrical switch housing are connected by threads, which improves the stability and reliability of installation.

[0032] In practical applications, the end of the pop-up switch button body passes through the switch housing cover and can be connected to the button body in a pop-up manner. The button cap is connected to the outer end of the pop-up switch button body. The steel wire is connected to the end of the button body. When the button cap is pressed, the pop-up switch button body moves the button body up and down inside the cylindrical switch housing, and the steel wire drives the sealing plug to move.

[0033] In practical applications, the button body has a heart-shaped guide groove 8 on its side; and the pop-up switch button body 5 includes a button cylinder 51, a pin 52, and a pop-up support rod 53; simultaneously, the end of the button cylinder has an n-shaped relief groove 54; during assembly, one end of the pop-up support rod is placed in the n-shaped relief groove and rotatably connected by the pin; the other end of the pop-up support rod has a guide protrusion 9 on its side, which moves or is limited within the heart-shaped guide groove when pressed. Furthermore, the heart-shaped guide groove includes a bottom V-shaped groove, vertical grooves integrally formed at both ends of the bottom V-shaped groove, and a top V-shaped guide groove integrally formed at the top of the vertical groove; the guide protrusion is positioned within the bottom V-shaped groove or the top V-shaped guide groove during translation, causing the button body to move up and down. When the pop-up switch button is pressed once, the guide protrusion enters the bottom V-shaped groove. At this time, the button moves downward inside the cylindrical switch housing, causing the steel wire to move upward and push out the sealing plug, thus opening the drain. When the pop-up switch button is pressed again, the guide protrusion enters the top V-shaped groove for a limit. At this time, under the reset action of the spring, the button moves upward and reset inside the cylindrical switch housing, causing the steel wire to move downward and drive the sealing plug, thus closing the drain. This improves the ease of operation and the effectiveness of switch control, making it highly practical.

[0034] The cylindrical switch housing has an external mounting thread 10 on its outer wall. This structure facilitates installation and positioning, and improves reliability.

[0035] This utility model has positive effects: The structure of this utility model is reasonable. Through the button body, the pop-up switch button body and the spring, when in use, the pop-up switch button body is pressed and drives the button body to rise and fall, thereby moving the steel wire to complete the sealing action. When pressed again, the spring resets the button body, which improves the convenience and effectiveness of operation. It can also improve the stability and reliability of the switch. It has strong applicability and good practicality.
