[0002] A typical handlebar combination switch includes an upper cover, a lower cover, and several switch bases mounted on the upper cover. The switch bases are used to support or install different control switches. Due to the diverse functions of electric vehicles or motorcycles, multiple switch bases need to be installed inside the upper cover, and each switch base has mounting ears for fixed connection. Assemblers need to find the corresponding mounting holes on the upper cover for each switch base's mounting ears, which significantly affects the assembly efficiency of the assemblers. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an integrated installation structure for a handlebar combination switch, which combines and installs the switch base to facilitate the rapid installation of subsequent locking components.

[0016] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0017] Reference Figure 1-4As shown, an integrated mounting structure for a handlebar combination switch includes an upper housing 1, a lower housing 2, and a first switch base 3 installed inside the upper housing 1. Second switch bases 4 are provided on both sides of the first switch base 3. A connecting portion 5 for fixed connection of the second switch base 4 is provided on one side of the first switch base 3. One side of the second switch base 4 is fixedly connected to the connecting portion 5 via a limiting structure. The other sides of both the first switch base 3 and the second switch base 4 are fixedly connected to the upper housing 1. The limiting structure includes a first mounting ear 6 provided on the second switch base 4 and a pair of limiting blocks 7 provided on both sides of the connecting portion 5. The limiting block 7 has a slot 8, and the first mounting ear 6 has a latch 9 that cooperates with the slot 8. The latch 9 cooperates with the slot 8 to restrict the rotation of the second switch base 4 relative to the first switch base 3. The limiting block 7 has a first mounting hole 10 for fixed connection of a locking element to the upper housing 1. The first mounting hole 10 passes through the limiting block 7 and the mounting portion.

[0018] During assembly, the first mounting ear 6 of the second switch base 4 is aligned with the limiting block 7 of the connecting part 5, so that the latch 9 on the limiting block 7 engages with the slot 8, thereby restricting the horizontal rotation of the second switch base 4 relative to the first switch base 3. Subsequently, a locking component (such as a bolt or screw) is passed through the limiting block 7 and the first mounting hole 10 on the mounting part, and fixedly connected to the upper housing 1. At this point, the other side of both the first switch base 3 and the second switch base 4 are simultaneously fixedly connected to the upper housing 1. By first assembling the switch bases and aligning the mounting holes between them, and then placing the assembled switch bases inside the upper housing 1 so that the mounting holes of the switch bases correspond to the fixed connection points of the upper housing 1, this arrangement improves assembly efficiency for the assembler, eliminating the need to install individual switch bases separately.

[0019] The slot 8 has a limiting surface 11 and a pair of straight surfaces that mate with the bayonet 9. The bayonet 9 has several protrusions 12 for increasing damping on its surface that mates with the straight surfaces. The paired straight surfaces of the slot 8 fit against the inner walls on both sides of the bayonet 9, while the limiting surface 11 abuts against the end of the bayonet 9. The several protrusions 12 on the inner wall of the bayonet 9 are in close contact with the straight surfaces of the slot 8, increasing the friction between the slot 8 and the bayonet 9, making the fit between the slot 8 and the bayonet 9 tighter. The slot 8 has a flange 13 that extends toward the first mounting ear 6 to limit the height of the second switch base 4. When the slot 8 mates with the bayonet 9, the lower surface of the flange 13 abuts against the upper surface of the first mounting ear 6.

[0020] Both sides of the mounting portion are provided with second mounting holes 14 for locking components to be fixedly connected to the upper housing 1. The second mounting holes 14 pass through the first mounting ear 6 and the mounting portion. During assembly, the locking component (such as a bolt) passes through the second mounting holes 14 and is fixed to the upper housing 1. The provision of second mounting holes 14 increases the number of fixing points, making the stress on the first mounting ear 6 and the mounting portion more even, which can alleviate the stress borne by a single fixing point and improve the durability of the structure.

[0021] The second switch base 4 has a second mounting ear 15 on the side away from the mounting part. The second mounting ear 15 extends to the bottom of the first switch base 3. The second mounting ear 15 has a third mounting hole 16 for a locking member to be fixedly connected to the upper housing 1. The third mounting hole 16 passes through the second mounting ear 15 and the first switch base 3. The second mounting ear 15 is set to fit against the bottom of the first switch base 3. The locking member (bolt) passes through the third mounting hole 16 and is fixedly connected to the upper housing 1, thereby fixing the second mounting ear 15 to the first switch base 3.

[0022] The upper housing 1 is provided with a plurality of connecting posts that cooperate with the locking element. The connecting posts abut against the end faces of the first mounting hole 10, the second mounting hole 14, and the third mounting hole 16, respectively, to cooperate with the locking element to lock the first switch base 3 and the second switch base 4. The connecting posts are integrally injection molded with the upper housing 1, and their end faces abut against the ends of the mounting holes, thereby forming a locking state with the locking element to clamp the switch bases and prevent the switch bases from loosening.

[0023] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are protected. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
