Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of wall switch technology, specifically relating to a simple toggle switch. Background Technology

[0002] Smart switch panels are now showing a diversified development trend. Toggle switches have flexible and diverse designs, can be made of different materials, have a variety of beautiful shapes, and are widely used in new smart panels.

[0003] Traditional toggle switches have a relatively complex structure, consisting of a copper rocker plate, a fixed point, a moving point, a top shaft, and other components. They require high precision and are prone to generating high noise during operation.

[0004] In addition, due to the large size of the toggle switch, it occupies a lot of space when applied to a smart panel, which limits the space for other functions on the smart switch panel and increases the difficulty of panel layout.

[0005] In terms of connection method, toggle switches and smart switch circuit boards are usually connected by plug-in soldering, which is not only inefficient but also costly. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a simplified toggle switch structure. The integrated design of the pivot and rocker arm simplifies the structure. The rocker arm utilizes contacts at both ends to interact with microswitches, thereby controlling the switch's on / off state. This significantly reduces costs and solves the problems of traditional toggle switches and smart switch circuit boards, which typically use component soldering, resulting in low processing efficiency, high cost, complex structures, and high precision requirements.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a simple toggle switch, including a mounting base, a switching mechanism provided on the mounting base, the switching mechanism including a mounting groove opened at the bottom of the mounting base, two micro switches arranged opposite each other on both sides of the opening of the mounting groove, a rotating shaft provided between the two micro switches, a rocker connected to the rotating shaft, the two ends of the rocker can contact and trigger the micro switches during rotation.

[0008] Preferably, two extension blocks are arranged opposite each other on both sides inside the mounting groove. The extension blocks have holes. The two extension blocks and two microswitches form a cross-shaped layout. The rotating shaft is arranged between the two extension blocks and is rotatably connected through the holes.

[0009] Preferably, the rocker has a U-shaped structure, with a fixing rod extending outward from the top center of the rocker, and patches installed at the top of both ends of the rocker. When the rocker rotates, the patches will contact and trigger the contacts of the micro switch.

[0010] Preferably, the rocker and the pivot are integrally formed into a cross-shaped structure.

[0011] Preferably, a detachable lever is installed on the fixing rod.

[0012] Preferably, the bottom of the mounting base is provided with wiring terminals, and the outer periphery of the mounting base is provided with several bolt holes.

[0013] Preferably, the mounting base has a mounting box on the back, the bottom of the mounting box has several wiring holes, and one side of the mounting box has a heat dissipation window.

[0014] Preferably, a protective panel is provided on the front of the mounting base.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] 1. By having the pads at both ends of the rocker plate contact the micro switch, the opening or closing of the switch is controlled, which greatly saves costs and improves processing efficiency.

[0017] 2. The micro switch adopts a reverse mounting method, which effectively saves space and reserves more space for the arrangement of other modules of the smart panel, thus facilitating the expansion of functions.

[0018] 3. The integrated design of the pivot and rocker simplifies the overall structure, and the use of plastic sheets instead of copper rockers reduces material costs.

[0019] 4. The lever head is detachable, allowing for easy replacement with levers of different shapes to meet diverse customer needs.

[0020] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be set forth in the central part of the description which follows, and some will be obvious from the description or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

[0030] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0031] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a simple toggle switch includes a mounting base 1, on which at least one switching mechanism 2 is provided. The switching mechanism 2 includes a mounting groove 3 formed at the bottom of the mounting base 1. Two microswitches 4 are arranged opposite each other on both sides of the opening of the mounting groove 3. A rotating shaft 6 is provided between the two microswitches 4. A rocker plate 5 is connected to the rotating shaft 6. The two ends of the rocker plate 5 can contact and trigger the microswitches 4 during rotation.

[0032] This utility model includes a mounting base 1, which serves as the base for the entire switch. At least one switching mechanism 2 is configured on the mounting base 1 to meet different circuit control requirements.

[0033] Each switch mechanism 2 is mounted on a pre-set mounting slot 3 at the bottom of the mounting base 1. Two microswitches 4 are symmetrically mounted on both sides of the opening of the mounting slot 3. These two microswitches 4 are responsible for detecting and responding to operation signals. The microswitches 4 are mounted in a reverse-mounted manner, which effectively saves space and reserves more space for the arrangement of other modules of the smart panel, thereby facilitating the expansion of functions.

[0034] A rotating shaft 6 is installed between the two microswitches 4. A rocker arm 5 is connected to the rotating shaft 6. During rotation, the two ends of the rocker arm 5 can respectively contact and trigger the microswitches 4 on both sides. This not only makes the switch operation intuitive and simple, but also allows for precise control of the closed and open states of the two microswitches 4 through the rotation of the rocker arm 5, thereby achieving effective control of the circuit.

[0035] Combination Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, two extension blocks 31 are arranged opposite each other on both sides inside the mounting groove 3. Holes 32 are provided on the extension blocks 31. The two extension blocks 31 and two micro switches 4 form a cross-shaped layout. The rotating shaft 6 is arranged between the two extension blocks 31 and is rotatably connected through the holes 32.

[0036] Holes 32 are provided on the extension block 31 to ensure that the rotating shaft 6 can rotate smoothly therein.

[0037] Furthermore, a unique cross-shaped layout is formed between the two extension blocks 31 and the two microswitches 4. This layout not only makes the internal structure of the switch more compact but also significantly improves the stability and accuracy of the switch during triggering. In the cross-shaped layout, the rotating shaft 6 is cleverly positioned between the two extension blocks 31 and achieves a stable rotational connection through the hole 32. This design not only ensures that the rotating shaft 6 can rotate smoothly but also guarantees that the rocker 5 can accurately contact and trigger the microswitches 4 on both sides during rotation.

[0038] Combination Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, the rocker 5 has a U-shaped structure. A fixing rod 51 extends outward from the top center of the rocker 5. Patches 52 are installed on the top of both ends of the rocker 5. When the rocker 5 rotates, the patches 52 will contact and trigger the contacts of the micro switch 4.

[0039] Combination Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, the rocker 5 and the pivot 6 are integrally formed cross-shaped structures.

[0040] Combination Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, a detachable lever 7 is installed on the fixing rod 51.

[0041] A fixing rod 51 extends outward from the top center of the rocker 5. This fixing rod 51 not only enhances the structural strength of the rocker 5 but also provides a reliable fixing point for subsequent installation and connection. A detachable lever 7 is installed on the fixing rod 51. Different shapes of levers 7 can be easily replaced to meet diverse customer needs. The design of lever 7 allows users to operate the rocker 5 with a simple pulling action, thereby achieving remote control or convenient operation of the switch.

[0042] The rocker arm 5 is also fitted with tabs 52 at both ends. These tabs 52 ensure that the rocker arm 5 accurately contacts and triggers the contacts of the micro switch 4 during rotation. This not only improves the trigger sensitivity of the switch but also makes the operation of the switch more intuitive and reliable.

[0043] The rocker arm 5 and the pivot 6 are designed as a single, integrally formed cross-shaped structure. This not only simplifies the switch assembly process and reduces production costs, but also improves the overall strength and stability of the switch. During rotation, the rocker arm 5 and the pivot 6 of the cross-shaped structure can maintain synchronous movement, thereby ensuring that the patch 52 can accurately trigger the contacts of the micro switch 4.

[0044] Combination Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the bottom of the mounting base 1 is provided with a wiring terminal 11, and the outer periphery of the mounting base 1 is provided with a number of bolt holes 12.

[0045] To ensure a reliable connection between the switch and the external circuit, a terminal block 11 is provided at the bottom of the mounting base 1. Through the terminal block 11, users can safely and reliably connect the switch to the external circuit, thereby ensuring that the switch can stably transmit current and signals during normal operation.

[0046] Several bolt holes 12 are also provided on the outer periphery of the mounting base 1.

[0047] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a mounting box 8 is provided on the back of the mounting base 1. Several wiring holes 81 are provided at the bottom of the mounting box 8, and a heat dissipation window 82 is provided on one side of the mounting box 8.

[0048] The connection between the mounting box 8 and the mounting base 1 is robustly designed to effectively resist the intrusion of external factors such as dust and moisture. This not only significantly improves the protection level of the switch but also ensures its high reliability and durability in harsh environments.

[0049] Several wiring holes 81 are provided at the bottom of the mounting box 8. These wiring holes 81 ensure that the connecting wires between the internal circuit and the external circuit can pass through smoothly and neatly, thereby improving the wiring efficiency of the switch and making the electrical connections inside the switch more tidy and orderly.

[0050] A heat dissipation window 82 is also provided on one side of the mounting box 8. This heat dissipation window 82 can effectively dissipate the heat generated by the switch during operation. Through the heat dissipation effect of the heat dissipation window 82, the electrical components inside the switch can be fully cooled, thereby extending their service life and improving their working stability.

[0051] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a protective panel 9 is provided on the front of the mounting base 1.

[0052] The protective panel 9 can effectively prevent external dust or moisture from entering the interior, thereby protecting electrical components from interference and damage from the external environment.

[0053] This invention represents a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but its scope of protection is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this invention, shall be covered within the scope of protection of this invention.
