The switch assembly includes a rotating shaft rotatably installed inside the control panel, a lever fixedly installed on the upper side of the rotating shaft and passing through the fixing through hole, and a paddle fixedly installed on the lever. In daily use, the user only needs to move the paddle, and the lever will drive the rotating shaft to rotate, thereby triggering a micro switch to realize the opening or closing operation of the sunroof, providing a convenient sunroof control method for occupants of the vehicle.

[0004] In the aforementioned technologies, a clearance needs to be provided between the fixed through hole and the lever to ensure that the lever can smoothly drive the rotating shaft to rotate and trigger the switch. However, when the car door is opened, the control panel is exposed, and dust and other impurities in the air can easily enter the fixed through hole through this clearance. Over time, the dust accumulates and gradually affects the normal operation of the internal circuit of the switch. This not only leads to poor switch contact, causing the sunroof control function to be intermittent and greatly reducing the reliability of the function, but also causes great inconvenience to users, indicating room for improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a dustproof automotive sunroof control switch, which solves the problem in the aforementioned related technologies where dust easily enters the clearance gap when the car door is opened, causing the sunroof control to be intermittent.

[0006] The technical solution for a dustproof car sunroof control switch provided in this application is as follows: A dustproof sunroof control switch for automobiles includes a control panel and a switch assembly. A support shell is detachably mounted on the bottom side of the control panel. A fixed recess is formed on the upper side of the control panel away from the support shell. A fixed through hole is formed on the inner wall of the middle of the fixed recess, and the fixed through hole communicates with the fixed recess. The switch assembly includes a rotating shaft rotatably connected to the control panel, a lever fixed on the rotating shaft and passing through the fixed through hole, and a lever piece fixed to the end of the lever away from the rotating shaft. A clearance gap is pre-set between the fixed through hole and the lever. A storage plate is fixed vertically on the upper side of the control panel near the fixed recess. A storage groove is formed on the vertical side of the storage plate. A protective curtain is provided outside the control panel, and one edge of the protective curtain is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the storage groove. The protective curtain can be unfolded horizontally from the storage groove to protect against the clearance gap.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when dust prevention is required, users can easily unfold the protective curtain in the horizontal direction to accurately cover the gap, effectively blocking dust and other impurities from entering, avoiding the impact of dust accumulation on the normal operation of the internal circuit of the switch, and ensuring the stability and reliability of the sunroof control function.

[0008] Optionally, a square cover plate is fixed on the edge of the protective curtain away from the storage plate; when the protective curtain is placed into the storage slot, the square cover plate can be detachably installed at the opening edge of the storage slot; the square cover plate can drive the protective curtain to unfold in the horizontal direction.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, when the protective curtain is placed into the storage slot, the square cover plate can be detachably installed on the edge of the storage slot opening. This not only provides a certain degree of fixation and protection for the protective curtain in the stored state, preventing it from accidentally falling or shifting, but also makes the overall appearance after storage more neat, improving the cleanliness and aesthetics of the vehicle interior.
