Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power switch technology, specifically a power switch with an indicator light. Background Technology

[0002] A switch is a basic electrical component used to control the opening and closing of circuits. It connects or disconnects circuits through manual or automatic operation, allowing current to flow or blocking current flow, thereby controlling electrical equipment. It is commonly found in various electrical appliances, lighting, and control systems.

[0003] A search revealed a utility model patent with publication number CN206421960U, which discloses a switch with an indicator light. The switch includes a functional module and a cover plate mounted above the functional module. An indicator light is mounted on the side of the functional module facing the cover plate, located between the cover plate and the functional module. The switch also includes a light guide mounted on the cover plate to transmit the light from the indicator light to the outside of the cover plate. The light guide is positioned above the indicator light, ensuring that the light from the indicator light always illuminates the light guide when the switch is on and off. This utility model switch with an indicator light features a light guide mounted on the cover plate, through which the light from the indicator light is transmitted to the outside of the cover plate. The light from the indicator light always illuminates the light guide when the switch is on and off, and the brightness of the light on the cover plate remains consistent.

[0004] While the above design can maintain consistent light brightness, it falls short in terms of blocking light. If used in a bedroom environment, the dim light at night may cause discomfort to the user, disturb their mood, and thus affect sleep quality. Therefore, there is still room for optimization in the design of this switch to better meet the needs of bedroom use. Utility Model Content

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a power switch with an indicator light, including a mounting shell 1. The mounting shell 1 has a set of threaded holes, and each threaded hole is threaded with a fixing bolt 13. Each fixing bolt 13 extends out of the mounting shell 1 and is fixedly connected to an anti-slip pad 14. When fixing the mounting shell 1, it can be placed in the reserved mounting opening, and then the fixing bolt 13 is rotated to make the anti-slip pad 14 contact the inner wall of the mounting opening, thus fixing the mounting shell 1. The operation is relatively convenient. A level 18 is set inside the mounting shell 1 and is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the mounting shell 1. The level 18 allows the installer to visually check whether the mounting shell 1 is installed in a level state, and it is easy to adjust it to ensure the installation effect. A protective washer 19 is fixedly connected to the back of the mounting shell 1. The protective washer 19 is made of rubber and can provide further protection for the mounting shell 1, making it stable for installation.

[0023] A panel 2 is snapped onto the mounting housing 1. The panel 2 has a socket 7 and a switch body 8. A back plate 3 is fixedly connected to the panel 2. A junction box 4 is fixedly connected to the back plate 3. The junction box 4 has a wiring port 5 and a set of wire pressing holes 6 that communicate with the wiring port 5. Each wire pressing hole 6 has a thread inside and a wire pressing bolt is threaded into each wire pressing hole 6. The socket 7 and the switch body 8 are sufficient to meet the user's needs.

[0024] A groove 9 is provided on the panel 2, and a power indicator light 10 is set inside the groove 9. The power indicator light 10 can indicate the status of the power switch when it is in use, so that the user can check it. A cover plate 12 is movably installed inside the groove 9 to cover the power indicator light 10, which can block the light of the power indicator light 10 and prevent it from affecting the user at night. The groove 9 is located above the socket 7 and the switch body 8. Two first magnetic strips 11 are fixedly connected inside the groove 9, and two second magnetic strips are fixedly connected on the cover plate 12. The cover plate 12 is installed by the first magnetic strips 11 and the second magnetic strips, and can be flexibly removed.

[0025] The mounting housing 1 has a cable threading port 15. Inside the mounting housing 1, a dust cover 16 that is compatible with the cable threading port 15 is fixedly connected. The other end of the dust cover 16 is fixedly connected to a tightening spring ring 17. The cable threading port 15 facilitates the insertion of the cable into the mounting housing 1 for installation. By using the dust cover 16 and the tightening spring ring 17 together, the dust cover 16 can fit against the cable, thereby sealing the cable threading port 15 and preventing external debris from entering its interior.

[0026] Working principle: When using this device, a mounting groove needs to be pre-drilled at the installation location. The cable can then be threaded through the cable entry port 15 and dust cover 16 into the mounting housing 1. The tightening spring ring 17 on the dust cover 16 ensures one end of the dust cover 16 is tightly fitted to the cable, thus sealing the cable entry port 15 and preventing external debris from entering. After this, the mounting housing 1 can be placed inside. During installation, rotating the fixing bolts 13 allows the anti-slip pads 14 on the bolts 13 to contact the inner wall of the mounting groove. Rotating each fixing bolt 13 individually secures the mounting housing 1. During installation, the installation process can be monitored by observing the installation progress. The level 18 inside the housing 1 can adjust the levelness of the installation to ensure the installation effect. Next, the cable can be inserted into the wiring port 5 on the panel 2 to complete the wiring. Then, the panel 2 can be installed on the housing 1 for use. When in use, the power indicator light 10 can light up, which allows the user to easily check the status of the power switch. If the power switch is used in the bedroom, the light emitted by the power indicator light 10 may affect the user when sleeping. In this case, the power indicator light 10 can be directly covered by moving the cover plate 12 to block its light source. The method of use is simple and quick.

[0027] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
