[0019] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0020] This application provides a glass panel touch switch structure, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes a base 1, which is a rectangular structure. Multiple first sensing contacts 2 and second sensing contacts 3 are evenly arranged on the base 1. Specifically, there are four first sensing contacts 2, which are evenly distributed in two rows and two columns. The second sensing contacts 3 are located between the four first sensing contacts 2 and in the middle of the base 1.

[0021] like Figure 1 and 3As shown, the base 1 is connected to the mounting bracket 5. The mounting bracket 5 is a rectangular frame structure that matches the base 1. A first through groove 51 is provided in the middle of the mounting bracket 5. A boss 52 is provided in the middle of the inner wall of the first through groove 51. A second through groove 53 is provided in the middle of the boss 52. Multiple countersunk holes 54 are provided on the edge of the boss 52. The base 1 is embedded in the first through groove 51. The first sensing contact 2 and the second sensing contact 3 pass through the second through groove 53. Screws are passed through the countersunk holes 54. The screws also pass through the base 1, thereby fixing the mounting bracket 5 to the base 1.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a glass panel 4 is connected to the side of the mounting bracket 5 facing away from the base 1. The glass panel 4 is a rectangular structure that matches the mounting bracket 5. The glass panel 4 is embedded in the first through groove 51 and fixed to the mounting bracket 5 with adhesive. The first sensing contact 2 and the second sensing contact 3 abut against the glass panel 4. The end face of the glass panel 4 facing away from the first sensing contact 2 has multiple arc-shaped indentations 41 and multiple straight indentations 42. Specifically, there are four arc-shaped indentations 41, which correspond one-to-one with the positions of the four first sensing contacts 2 and are located at the edge of the glass panel 4. The arc-shaped indentations 41 are specifically 1 / 4 arc-shaped indentations, and their orientation is... The positions of the corresponding first sensing contact points 2 are matched. For example, the arc-shaped indentation corresponding to the first sensing contact point 2 located in the upper left corner is the upper left arc-shaped indentation, which is opposite to the lower right arc-shaped indentation. The orientation of the other four arc-shaped indentations 41 is similar. The number of straight strip-shaped indentations 42 is specifically four. The four straight strip-shaped indentations 42 are evenly arranged radially in the middle of the glass panel 4 and correspond one-to-one with the four arc-shaped indentations 41. The straight strip-shaped indentations 42 face the corresponding arc-shaped indentations 41 and form a first touch area between them. The first touch area corresponds to the first sensing contact point 2. Specifically, the first touch area and the first sensing contact point 2 are located in the same pressing direction.

[0023] A rectangular groove 43 is provided in the middle of the end face of the glass panel 4 facing away from the second sensing contact 3. Four straight grooves 42 are evenly arranged on the edge of the rectangular groove 43. A second touch area is formed in the rectangular groove 43. The second touch area corresponds to the second sensing contact 3. Specifically, the second touch area and the second sensing contact 3 are located in the same pressing direction.

[0024] In practical use, the glass panel touch switch structure of this application allows the location of a target point to be confirmed in multiple first touch areas and second touch areas by touching the directional arc-shaped indentation 41, straight strip-shaped indentation 42 and rectangular groove 43. Compared with the prior art, the glass panel touch switch structure of this application does not rely on light and can be operated accurately at night.

[0025] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
