Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a fixed handle tactile switch. Background Technology

[0002] Fixed-handle tactile switches are basic switching devices widely used in electrical control systems, primarily for circuit switching control. A fixed-handle tactile switch includes a switch base, a switch end cover, a switch button, a circular dome switch, a first terminal, and a second terminal. Pressing down the circular dome switch connects the first and second terminals. Existing fixed-handle tactile switches have the following drawbacks in practical use: 1. In traditional fixed-handle tactile switches, there is a gap between the switch button and the switch end cover. This gap allows dust and impurities to easily enter the switch, and long-term accumulation of impurities can affect the normal operation of internal components, leading to unstable contact and reducing the switch's lifespan and reliability; 2. During frequent pressing and resetting, the elasticity of the circular dome switch gradually weakens, resulting in a decreased recovery effect, thus affecting the contact stability and reliability of the switch button. Furthermore, the lack of a visual display mechanism prevents users from observing the dome switch's status externally, increasing the difficulty of maintenance and repair. Improvements and optimizations are proposed to address these issues. Utility Model Content
