Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive switches, and in particular to an automotive window lift switch. Background Technology
[0002] Automotive power window switches are typically located on the door panel or interior door handle for easy operation. This area, being the most convenient, can accommodate more switches if space allows. However, existing switch designs have large toggle covers, meaning the entire toggle rotates during operation. Therefore, it's difficult to place other switches above the toggle. The main reason is that current power window switches use a transmission pair; the toggle's rotation drives a lower lever downwards to achieve the switching function. This structure results in a large toggle travel and a less compact design. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a compact automotive window regulator switch, which solves the problem of large space occupation of existing automotive window regulator switch knobs.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a compact automotive window lift switch, including a housing, a base, a circuit board disposed on the base, a conductive rubber plate disposed on the circuit board, and a toggle switch; a lever is rotatably mounted on the housing, the toggle switch is fixedly connected to the lever, a swing arm is disposed below the lever, a top rod is disposed below the swing arm, and a conductive rubber post that cooperates with the top rod is disposed on the conductive rubber plate; the swing arm is rotatably mounted on the housing, a latch is disposed on the swing arm, and a locking foot that cooperates with the latch is disposed on the lever.
[0005] Furthermore, the lever is provided with a knob mounting arm and a rotating pin, and the knob mounting arm is located between the rotating pin and the locking foot.
[0006] Preferably, the dial has an overall “7” shaped structure, and a mounting arm is provided on the back of the dial. The mounting arm has a locking hole, and the dial mounting arm has a buckle that cooperates with the locking hole.
[0007] Preferably, the end of the locking foot is cylindrical and the locking opening is U-shaped.
[0008] To achieve the two-speed function, a speed block is provided below the top rod, and two conductive rubber columns are provided below the speed block.
[0009] To enable the lifting function, a push rod is provided on the lower front and rear sides of the swing arm. Pressing down the knob lowers the electric window, and raising the knob raises the electric window.
[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model uses a combination of a lever and a swing arm to drive the movement of the lower top rod, which has the advantages of short lever travel and strong shift feel. The lever has a "7" shaped structure, which occupies little space. Therefore, other structures can be installed above the lever without affecting the lever travel. At the same time, the combination of the lever and the swing arm occupies little internal space, making it convenient to arrange other switch structures.
[0011] The present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Attached Figure Description

[0017] Figure 6 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the lever in this utility model. Detailed Implementation
[0018] Examples, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a compact car window lift switch includes a housing 1, a base 2 that is snapped and fixed to the housing 1, a circuit board 3 mounted on the base 2, and a conductive adhesive plate 4 mounted on the circuit board 3. A set of levers 6 are mounted on the housing 1, and toggle buttons 5 are fixedly mounted on the levers 6. Specifically, there are two levers 6 for the front row and two levers 6 for the rear row. A front decorative cover 10 is provided on the housing 1 to cover the front levers 6, and an unlocking switch 11 is provided above the rear levers 6.
[0019] The toggle switch 5 has a "7"-shaped structure. A mounting arm 51 is located on the back of the toggle switch 5, and a locking hole 511 is provided on the mounting arm 51. The lever 6 has a toggle switch mounting arm 62 and a rotating pin 63. The toggle switch mounting arm 62 has a buckle 621 that engages with the locking hole 511. The engagement of the buckle 621 and the locking hole 511 completes the assembly and fixation of the toggle switch 5 and the lever 6. The rotating pin 63 is located above the toggle switch mounting arm 62. The lever 6 is rotatably mounted on the housing 1 via the rotating pin 63. Moving the toggle switch 5 causes the lever 6 to rotate.
[0020] Below the lever 6 is a swing arm 7, which is rotatably mounted on the housing 1. The lever 6 drives the swing arm 7 to swing back and forth. The specific mating structure is as follows: the swing arm 7 is provided with a bayonet 71, and the lever 6 is provided with a locking foot 61 that mates with the bayonet 7. The end of the locking foot 61 is a cylindrical structure, and the bayonet 7 is a U-shaped opening structure. This structure facilitates assembly and enables good transmission.
[0021] To achieve a two-speed lifting function, a top rod 8 is provided on each of the lower front and rear sides of the swing arm 7. Two conductive rubber posts 41, which cooperate with each top rod 8, are provided on the conductive rubber plate 4. A gear position block 9 is placed on each of the two conductive rubber posts 41. The bottom of the top rod 8 acts on the gear position block 9. The gear position block 9 is a prior art design; relying on its asymmetrical structure, the two conductive rubber posts 41 are pressed sequentially to achieve the two-speed function. This utility model has a small footprint, facilitates the arrangement of more switch structures, and provides a good tactile feel for the gear positions.
[0022] The present invention has been described above by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-described manner. Any non-substantial improvements made using the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention; or the direct application of the inventive concept and technical solution to other situations without modification, are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
