[0001] This application relates to the field of knobs, and more specifically to a knob assembly with multiple control modes. Background Technology

[0002] Our company's previous knob components, such as Figure 4 As shown, it includes a housing and a rod. The ends of the rod are fixed to the protrusion in the middle section of the housing by compression insertion to form an interference fit, thereby limiting the rod. However, in the current increasingly competitive market, the above-mentioned technical solution is not particularly competitive and the operation is not diverse enough, as it can only rotate. Therefore, in order to adapt to the diversified needs of the existing knob market, there is a need to provide a knob assembly that is easy to use, simple in structure, and has multiple control methods.
