The abutting plane 241 is arranged on the side of the limiting protrusion 24 facing the accommodating groove 23, and is used to abut the circumferential side of the vibration piece 40. The guide inclined plane 242 is arranged obliquely relative to the abutting plane 241 and is connected with the abutting plane 241, and is used to guide the vibration piece 40 to move into the accommodating groove 23.

[0044] In this way, by arranging the guide inclined plane 242 and the abutting plane 241, the guide inclined plane 242 guides the vibration piece 40 to smoothly move into the accommodating groove 23, so that the abutting plane 241 abuts the circumferential side of the vibration piece 40, thereby stably fixing the vibration piece 40 in the accommodating groove 23.

[0045] It can be understood that the vibration piece 40 can be inserted into the accommodating groove 23 from any one end of the accommodating groove 23. In the embodiment, the guide inclined plane 242 is located at one end of the limiting protrusion 24 adjacent to the circuit board 60, so that the guide inclined plane 242 guides the vibration piece 40 to be inserted into the accommodating groove 23 from the end of the accommodating groove 23 adjacent to the circuit board 60. In other embodiments, the guide inclined plane 242 can also be located at the other end of the limiting protrusion 24 away from the circuit board 60, so that the guide inclined plane 242 guides the vibration piece 40 to be inserted into the accommodating groove 23 from the end of the accommodating groove 23 away from the circuit board 60.

[0046] Referring to Figure 3 In some embodiments, the accommodating body 22 further includes a clamping body 25 arranged at the end of the fixing portion 223 and connected with the fixing portion 223. The clamping body 25 is used to abut the end of the vibration piece 40 located in the accommodating groove 23, so as to limit the vibration piece 40 in the longitudinal direction.

[0047] In this way, by arranging the clamping body 25, in the process of moving the vibration piece 40 into the accommodating groove 23, the clamping body 25 is elastically deformed in the direction away from the accommodating groove 23 under the extrusion of the vibration piece 40, and is elastically reset and abuts the end of the vibration piece 40 after the vibration piece 40 is moved into the accommodating groove 23, so as to clamp and fix the vibration piece 40 in the accommodating groove 23, thereby avoiding the displacement of the vibration piece 40 in the moving direction, and improving the assembly stability of the vibration piece 40.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, the clamping body 25 comprises a clamping body 251 and a clamping portion 252, the clamping body 251 is connected with the end of the fixing portion 223, and the clamping portion 252 is connected to the clamping body 251 and extends to the accommodation groove 23, and the clamping portion 252 is used for abutting against the end of the vibration piece 40 located in the accommodation groove 23.

[0049] In this way, by setting the specific structure of the clamping body 25, the clamping portion 252 drives the clamping body 251 to elastically deform under the extrusion of the vibration piece 40, prevents the clamping portion 252 from shielding the vibration piece 40, so as to provide the vibration piece 40 with a moving channel after extrusion, facilitates the vibration piece 40 to move into the accommodation groove 23, and the clamping portion 252 elastically resets under the driving of the clamping body 251 after the vibration piece 40 moves into the accommodation groove 23, so as to abut against the end of the vibration piece 40 and be clamped and connected with the buckling portion (not shown in the figure) of the vibration piece 40, so that the clamping portion 252 supports the vibration piece 40, and the function of fixing the vibration piece 40 to the accommodation groove 23 by the clamping body 25 is realized.

[0062] In this way, by matching the touch display 70 with the receiving groove 27, the touch display 70 can be positioned and the receiving groove 27 can stably carry the touch display 70.

[0063] Referring to Figure 2 In some embodiments, one end of the support 20 is inserted into the inner side of the first adjusting body 11 and is clamped and connected with the first adjusting body 11, and the knob member 30 is sleeved on the outer side of the second adjusting body 12 and is clamped and connected with the second adjusting body 12.

[0064] In this way, by inserting one end of the support 20 into the inner side of the first adjusting body 11 and clamping and connecting it with the first adjusting body 11, and by sleeving the knob member 30 on the outer side of the second adjusting body 12 and clamping and connecting it with the second adjusting body 12, the support 20 and the first adjusting body 11, and the knob member 30 and the second adjusting member 10 are respectively stably connected, ensuring the stability of the knob switch 100 during use, avoiding failure or damage caused by unstable connection, thereby improving the durability and reliability of the knob switch 100.

[0065] It can be understood that the support 20 is connected with the first adjusting body 11 and the vibration member 40, and the knob member 30 is connected with the second adjusting body 12, when the vibration member 40 vibrates, the vibration can be fed back to the knob member 30 through the support 20 and the adjusting member 10, ensuring that the user can receive vibration feedback when operating the knob switch 100, improving the user operation experience.
