[0002] A switch is an electronic component used to control the on / off state of a circuit. It achieves the conduction or interruption of current through physical or electronic means. The core function of a switch is to control the on / off state of current by the contact or separation of contacts. Its basic structure includes movable contacts and fixed contacts. During operation, the contact state is changed by mechanical force or electronic signals.

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, existing patents offer solutions, but the installation of existing integrated switches is overly complex and lacks a structure for quick switch installation. This results in the need to repeatedly adjust the position of the switch body and the base box during installation, while each screw is tightened with a screwdriver. Novice installers are prone to problems such as switch misalignment and misaligned wiring terminals, requiring multiple disassemblies and rework, thus reducing installation efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, an integrated switch assembly structure that is easy to install is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an easy-to-install integrated switch assembly structure, which can solve the problems of existing switches being too complicated to install and lacking a structure for quick switch installation. This results in the need to repeatedly adjust the position of the switch body and the base box during installation, and to fix the screws one by one with a screwdriver. Novice installers are prone to problems such as switch misalignment and misaligned wiring terminals, requiring multiple disassemblies and rework, thus reducing installation efficiency.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an easy-to-install integrated switch assembly structure, comprising a switch body, a snap-fit ​​mechanism being snapped onto the bottom of the surface of the switch body, and connecting mechanisms welded to the bottom of the front and rear sides of the snap-fit ​​mechanism. The snap-fit ​​mechanism includes a snap-fit ​​base, several sleeves, a return spring, a moving ring, a telescopic rod, and a clamping plate. The snap-fit ​​base is snapped onto the bottom of the surface of the switch body, the sleeves are welded to the bottom of the inner walls on both sides of the snap-fit ​​base, the return spring is installed on the inner side of the sleeve, the moving ring is slidably connected to the inner side of the sleeve, the telescopic rod is welded to the surface of the moving ring, the side of the return spring away from the sleeve is fixedly connected to the surface of the moving ring away from the telescopic rod, and the clamping plate is welded to the side of the telescopic rod away from the return spring, with the side of the clamping plate away from the telescopic rod contacting the bottom of the two sides of the switch body.

[0007] Preferably, the connecting mechanism includes snap-fit ​​holes, barbs, a connecting plate, connecting screw holes, and double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape, with the snap-fit ​​holes located on both sides of the snap-fit ​​base.

[0008] Preferably, the barb is fixedly connected to the surfaces on both sides of the switch body, the barb is snapped into the inside of the snap-fit ​​hole, and the connecting plate is welded to the bottom of the front side and the bottom of the rear side of the snap-fit ​​base, respectively.

[0009] Preferably, the connecting screw hole is located on the inner side of the connecting plate, and the double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive is bonded to the bottom of the snap-fit ​​base.

[0010] Preferably, an anti-slip pad is fixedly connected to the side of the clamping plate near the switch body, and the anti-slip pad is made of rubber material.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0017] 1. The snap-fit ​​mechanism of this application consists of a sleeve, a return spring, a moving ring, and a telescopic rod to form an elastic telescopic structure. During installation, no tools such as screwdrivers are needed. Simply align the switch body with the snap-fit ​​base and press it down. The two sides of the switch body squeeze the clamping plates, which in turn drive the telescopic rod and the moving ring to compress the return spring. When the switch body is in place, the return spring rebounds and pushes the clamping plates to fit tightly against the two sides of the switch body, automatically completing the snap-fit ​​fixation. The assembly of the switch body and the snap-fit ​​base can be achieved in one step, which is especially suitable for non-professionals.

[0018] 2. The connection mechanism of this application integrates both mechanical snap-fit ​​and adhesive fixing. During installation, the choice can be made flexibly according to the scenario. For temporary fixing or scenarios where the wall is not suitable for drilling, simply peel off the release paper and quickly stick the snap-fit ​​base to the mounting surface with double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive to complete the initial fixing. For scenarios with long-term use or high load-bearing requirements, it can be used with the connecting screw holes of the connecting plate for mechanical fixing with screws. This double protection prevents the switch from falling off. This design not only meets the needs of different installation environments, but also reduces the requirements for the mounting surface.

[0025] 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.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-5 The present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0027] An easy-to-install integrated switch assembly structure includes a switch body 1. A snap-fit ​​mechanism 2 is snapped onto the bottom of the surface of the switch body 1. Connecting mechanisms 3 are welded to the bottom of the front and rear sides of the snap-fit ​​mechanism 2. The snap-fit ​​mechanism 2 includes a snap-fit ​​base 21, several sleeves 22, a return spring 23, a moving ring 24, a telescopic rod 25, and a clamping plate 26. The snap-fit ​​base 21 is snapped onto the bottom of the surface of the switch body 1. The sleeves 22 are welded to the bottom of the inner walls on both sides of the snap-fit ​​base 21. The return spring 23 is installed on the inner side of the sleeve 22. The moving ring 24 is slidably connected to the inner side of the sleeve 22. The telescopic rod 25 is welded to the surface of the moving ring 24. The side of the return spring 23 away from the sleeve 22 is fixedly connected to the surface of the moving ring 24 away from the telescopic rod 25. The clamping plate 26 is welded to the side of the telescopic rod 25 away from the return spring 23. The side of the clamping plate 26 away from the telescopic rod 25 contacts the bottom of the two sides of the switch body 1.

[0028] In this embodiment: by setting the switch body 1, key components such as contacts, buttons, touch modules, and terminals required for circuit control are integrated, eliminating the need for additional disassembly and assembly, thus reducing the number of parts from the source. The snap-fit ​​base 21 provides a stable mounting carrier for the sleeve 22 and the switch body 1. Its snap-fit ​​cooperation with the switch body 1 achieves initial positioning of the two, preventing the switch body 1 from shifting during installation. The sleeve 22 provides a limiting guide channel for the return spring 23 and the moving ring 24. The return spring 23 is installed inside the sleeve 22 and connected to the moving ring 24, and moves through its own... The elastic deformation provides a continuous and adjustable clamping force. The moving ring 24 is slidably connected to the inside of the sleeve 22. On the one hand, it receives the elastic force of the return spring 23 and transmits it to the telescopic rod 25. On the other hand, through the sliding cooperation with the sleeve 22, it restricts the extension and retraction direction of the telescopic rod 25. The telescopic rod 25 converts the sliding of the moving ring 24 into the horizontal movement of the clamping plate 26. The clamping plate 26 directly contacts both sides of the switch body 1. By increasing the contact area with the switch body 1, the clamping force of the telescopic rod 25 is distributed and transmitted, avoiding excessive local pressure that could damage the outer shell of the switch body 1.

[0029] Specifically, such as Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the connecting mechanism 3 includes a snap-fit ​​hole 31, a barb buckle 32, a connecting plate 33, a connecting screw hole 34, and a double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive sticker 35. The snap-fit ​​hole 31 is located on both sides of the snap-fit ​​base 21.

[0030] Specifically, such as Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the barb buckle 32 is fixedly connected to the surfaces on both sides of the switch body 1. The barb buckle 32 is snapped into the inside of the snap-in hole 31. The connecting plate 33 is welded to the bottom of the front side and the bottom of the rear side of the snap-in base 21 respectively.

[0031] Specifically, such as Figure 4 , Figure 5As shown, the connecting screw hole 34 is opened on the inner side of the connecting plate 33, and the double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive 35 is attached to the bottom of the snap-fit ​​base 21.

[0032] In this embodiment: by setting the snap-fit ​​hole 31 to provide a snap-fit ​​point for the barbed buckle 32, the switch body 1 and the snap-fit ​​base 21 are fixed together in conjunction with the barbed buckle 32, supplementing the elastic clamping of the clamping plate 26. After the barbed buckle 32 is snapped into the snap-fit ​​hole 31, it is not easy to fall out in the opposite direction. During installation, you only need to align the switch body 1 with the snap-fit ​​base 21 and press it to complete the snap-fit. No tools are required, which further simplifies the assembly steps of the switch body 1 and the snap-fit ​​base 21. The connecting plate 33 provides a carrier for opening the connecting screw hole 34, so that the snap-fit ​​base 21 can be fixed to the wall box by screws. The connecting screw hole 34 provides a threaded interface for screw fixing, ensuring that the screw can be stably screwed in and tightened to the connecting plate 33 and the mounting surface. The double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive 35 provides a tool-free quick fixing solution. During installation, you only need to peel off the release paper 6 to stick the snap-fit ​​base 21 to the mounting surface. It is suitable for temporary fixing or the mounting surface is not suitable for drilling.

[0033] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, an anti-slip pad 4 is fixedly connected to the side of the clamping plate 26 near the switch body 1. The anti-slip pad 4 is made of rubber material.

[0034] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, a reinforcing ring 5 is welded at the connection between the telescopic rod 25 and the clamping plate 26, and the surface of the reinforcing ring 5 is coated with an anti-corrosion coating.

[0035] In this embodiment: by setting an anti-slip pad 4, the friction between the clamping plate 26 and the switch body 1 is increased. The anti-slip pad 4 is made of rubber material, which has a certain elasticity and can fill the tiny gaps on the surface of the clamping plate 26 and the switch body 1, making the contact tighter and further improving the clamping stability. By setting a reinforcing ring 5, the welding contact area between the telescopic rod 25 and the clamping plate 26 is increased, and the force at the connection between the two is distributed, avoiding the weld point from breaking due to repeated clamping force during long-term use. By setting an anti-corrosion coating, corrosive substances such as air and water vapor can be isolated, which is especially suitable for humid environments such as kitchens and bathrooms, and prevents the welded parts of the reinforcing ring 5, telescopic rod 25, and clamping plate 26 from rusting.

[0036] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, a release paper 6 is provided on the bottom surface of the double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape 35, and the surface of the release paper 6 is coated with a waterproof coating.

[0037] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, a fixing plate 7 is welded between adjacent snap-fit ​​bases 21, and the surface of the fixing plate 7 is coated with anti-corrosion paint.

[0038] In this embodiment: by setting release paper 6, the adhesive surface of the adhesive can be covered during product transportation and storage to prevent dust and impurities from adhering and causing a decrease in adhesiveness, ensuring that the adhesive maintains the best bonding effect during installation. By setting waterproof coating, the release paper 6 can be prevented from being damaged by moisture in humid environments, avoiding premature exposure or moisture failure of the adhesive. By setting fixing plate 7, multiple independent snap-fit ​​bases 21 can be connected into a whole. During installation, there is no need to adjust the position of each snap-fit ​​base 21 individually, which can ensure the horizontal and vertical alignment of the multi-gang switch. By setting anti-corrosion coating, the fixing plate 7 can be prevented from rusting in humid environments, avoiding rust affecting the connection integrity of the multi-gang switch.

[0039] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, a protective pad 8 is fitted on the surface of the snap-fit ​​base 21, and the surface of the protective pad 8 is engraved with anti-slip texture.

[0040] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, a buffer pad 9 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the snap-fit ​​hole 31. The buffer pad 9 is made of silicone material.

[0041] In this embodiment: by setting the protective pad 8, the impact force can be buffered during the transportation or installation of the snap-fit ​​base 21, avoiding scratches and paint peeling caused by friction between the surface of the snap-fit ​​base 21 and other parts, and protecting the appearance integrity of the snap-fit ​​base 21. By setting the anti-slip texture, when the operator needs to hold the snap-fit ​​base 21 for positioning and fixing during installation, the anti-slip texture can increase the friction between the hand and the snap-fit ​​base 21, avoiding slippage when the hand is wet or wearing gloves. By setting the buffer pad 9, the impact force between the barb buckle 32 and the edge of the snap-fit ​​hole 31 can be buffered, avoiding wear or breakage caused by rigid contact between the two, and extending the service life of the barb buckle 32 and the snap-fit ​​hole 31. By setting the buffer pad 9 to be made of silicone material, the silicone material has good sealing properties, which can prevent dust and moisture from entering the interior of the snap-fit ​​base 21 through the gap between the snap-fit ​​hole 31 and the barb buckle 32.

[0042] Working principle: First, the clamping plate 26 is in a naturally open state. At this time, the operator presses the switch body 1 downwards with the top opening of the snap-fit ​​base 21. The two sides of the switch body 1 will press against the clamping plate 26, causing the telescopic rod 25 to move inwards towards the sleeve 22. At the same time, it pushes the moving ring 24 to compress the return spring 23. The return spring 23 generates a reverse elastic force due to deformation, which is transmitted to the clamping plate 26 through the moving ring 24 and the telescopic rod 25, so that the clamping plate 26 fits tightly against the two sides of the switch body 1, initially realizing the elastic clamping and positioning of the switch body 1 and the snap-fit ​​mechanism 2. Next, when the switch body 1 is pressed down to the preset position, the barbed hooks 32 fixed on both sides of its surface will simultaneously align with the snap-fit ​​holes 31 opened on both sides of the snap-fit ​​base 21. As the pressing action continues, the barbed hooks 32 will slide into the inside of the snap-fit ​​holes 31. Due to the barbed hook structure design, after the barbed hooks 32 are snapped in, their hooks will form a reverse limit with the edge of the snap-fit ​​hole 31, preventing them from coming out on their own. At the same time, the silicone buffer pad 9 fixed inside the snap-fit ​​hole 31 will fill the gap between the barbed hooks 32 and the snap-fit ​​hole 31, which not only buffers the impact force during the snap-fit ​​process, but also prevents subsequent damage. Vibration and abnormal noise occurred during use. At this point, the switch body 1 and the snap-fit ​​mechanism 2 were fully assembled using a combination of elastic clamping and mechanical snap-fit ​​for double fixation. Then, the operator removed the release paper 6, exposing the adhesive side, and aligned the assembled switch body 1 with the snap-fit ​​mechanism 2 at the preset installation position on the wall. The double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive 35 quickly fixed the snap-fit ​​base 21 to the installation surface through its own adhesion, achieving initial fixation without tools or drilling. Afterwards, the operator used the connecting plates 33 at the front and rear of the snap-fit ​​base 21, with connecting screw holes on the inner side of the connecting plates 33. The 34 standard mounting screws are used. The operator passes the screws through the connecting screw holes 34 and screws them into the reserved threaded holes of the wall box. The mechanical tightening force of the screws further strengthens the connection between the snap-fit ​​mechanism 2 and the mounting surface. Finally, if a multi-gang switch such as a two-way or three-way switch needs to be installed, the connecting plate 33 welded between adjacent snap-fit ​​bases 21 will connect multiple snap-fit ​​mechanisms 2 into a whole. During installation, the operator only needs to align the overall position to ensure the horizontal and vertical consistency of the multi-gang switch. There is no need to adjust them one by one. In the end, the goal of quick assembly, flexible fixing and durable installation and use is achieved.

[0043] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
