The above description is for the purpose of simplifying the description of this utility model and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0022] Unless otherwise specified, the singular forms “a,” “the,” and “the” used in this specification include the plural forms. The terms “comprising,” “including,” and “containing” used in this specification indicate the presence of the claimed feature but do not exclude the presence of one or more other features. The term “and / or” used in this specification includes any and all combinations of one or more of the relevant listed items.

[0023] In the specification, when an element is described as being "on," "fixed" to, "connected" to, or "joined" to another element, the element may be directly located on, fixed to, connected to, joined to, or in contact with the other element, or there may be an intermediate element present. In the specification, the description of a feature being arranged "adjacent" to another feature may refer to a feature having a portion that overlaps with the adjacent feature or a portion located above or below the adjacent feature.

[0024] It is understood that although the terms "first," "second," etc., may be used herein to describe different elements, these elements should not be limited by these terms. These terms are merely used to distinguish one element from another. Therefore, a first element may be referred to as a second element without departing from the teachings of this application.

[0025] Exemplary embodiments of this application will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, it should be understood that this application can be presented in many different ways and is not limited to the embodiments described below. It should also be understood that the embodiments disclosed herein can be combined in various ways to provide further additional embodiments. Throughout the drawings, the same reference numerals denote the same or functionally identical elements.

[0026] Figures 1 to 3 The overall structure of the telephone module is shown, which mainly includes a button panel 10, a cover plate 20, a main frame 30, a PCB board 40, a middle bottom cover 50, and a base plate 60 stacked from front to back. The main frame 30 serves as the core. The button panel 10, cover plate 20, PCB board 40, and middle bottom cover 50 are all fixed to the main frame 30 from both sides and then fixed together to the base plate 60.

[0027] Reference Figures 4 to 6The main frame 30 is provided with a first elastic member 31, a second elastic member 32, and a third elastic member 33. These members have a certain elastic range of motion, allowing them to move elastically along their front-rear axial direction. The button panel 10 consists of a first button plate 11, a second button plate 12, and a third button plate 13, respectively assembled onto the first elastic member 31, the second elastic member 32, and the third elastic member 33 via a snap-fit ​​structure. Specifically, the first elastic member 31 consists of a first connecting plate 31a and a rib 31b connecting the first connecting plate 31a and the main frame 30; the second elastic member 32 consists of a second connecting plate 32a and a rib 32b connecting the second connecting plate 32a and the main frame 30; and the third elastic member 33 consists of a third connecting plate 33a and a rib 33b connecting the third connecting plate 33a and the main frame 30. The main frame 30 is entirely made of plastic, thus these elastic members connected by ribs possess elasticity. Multiple slots 31c are provided on the side of the first connecting plate 31a, and a buckle 16 is provided on the back side of the first button plate 11. The slots 31c and the buckle 16 cooperate to form the above-mentioned snap-fit ​​structure.

[0028] Several trigger buttons 41 are provided on the back of the first connecting plate 31a, the second connecting plate 32a, and the third connecting plate 33a. The trigger buttons 41 are specifically fixed to the PCB board 40 and are tightly attached to it. Therefore, when the operator presses the corresponding button on the button panel 10, the trigger button 41 is squeezed by the connecting plate to realize the call button function. The rebound force of the trigger button 41 is used in conjunction with the rib to achieve the rebound. Light-emitting holes 14, 15, 36a, and 36b are provided on the third connecting plate 33a and the third button panel 13. The light guide column 42, which is fixed on the PCB board 40 and is used to transmit optical indication signals, passes through the light-emitting holes 14, 15, 36a, and 36b to display the call optical indication on the front of the telephone module. A cover plate 20 is also provided between the main frame 30 and the button panel 10. The cover plate 20 has a mounting groove 21 and a mesh 23 for the button panel 10 to pass through the cover plate 20 and be assembled with the main frame 30. Correspondingly, a perforated hole 34 is also provided on the main frame 30, and the mesh 23 is placed on the perforated hole 34 so that the sound can pass through the surface of the cover plate and reach the PCB board 40.

[0029] In some embodiments, the perforated hole 34, together with the first connecting plate 31 and the second connecting plate 32, surrounds the outer periphery of the third connecting plate 33, so that the buttons are arranged in a circular pattern and the structure is compact.

[0030] In some implementations, the button panel 10 is made of anodized aluminum alloy.

[0031] The biggest advantage of this handset module is that it integrates indication, call, and button interaction functions. Its compact structure and small size make it better suited for the limited space in home elevator cars. Its overall dimensions can be kept within 148mm × 80mm × 24mm.
