[0003] However, in the existing technology, the bracket is generally made of plastic, which needs to bear the weight and fix the switch function. However, the plastic has limited hardness and is easy to deform, which will cause problems such as loose connection with the switch function and short service life.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new switch bracket to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] This invention aims to solve at least one of the problems existing in the prior art, and to provide a switch bracket with a stable structure, resistance to deformation, and long service life.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a switch bracket, comprising: A faceplate, the faceplate including a faceplate body, a mounting opening penetrating the faceplate body, and at least two first snap-fit structures formed on the back of the faceplate body; and, The bracket includes a ring-shaped bracket body made of metal, a second snap-fit structure formed on the bracket body and matching the first snap-fit structure, and a mounting frame fixed to the bracket body; the second snap-fit structure and the first snap-fit structure form a detachable fixed connection so that the bracket body is fixed to the face frame body, the bracket body is arranged around the mounting opening, and the mounting frame extends protruding from the inner periphery of the bracket body in a direction away from the face frame body. The mounting frame is made of plastic material and is used to support the switch function and form a detachable fixed connection.
[0007] Preferably, the first snap-fit structure is a buckle protruding from the back of the faceplate body, and the second snap-fit structure is a buckle hole that penetrates the bracket body and matches the buckle.
[0008] Preferably, the first snap-fit structure comprises four components arranged at intervals around the mounting port.
[0009] Preferably, the mounting frame includes a frame plate that is attached and fixed to the side of the bracket body near the face frame body and is in the shape of an annulus, an edge ring that extends from the outer periphery of the frame plate and wraps around the outer periphery of the bracket body, and a frame arm that extends from the inner periphery of the frame plate away from the face frame body and protrudes through the mounting opening.
[0010] Preferably, the bracket body further includes a reinforcing hole extending therethrough, and the mounting frame further includes a reinforcing column formed by the protrusion of the frame plate, the reinforcing column being fixedly engaged within the reinforcing hole.
[0011] Preferably, the mounting frame and the bracket body are integrally injection molded.

[0015] Compared with existing technologies, the switch bracket of this utility model includes a face frame and a bracket. A first snap-fit structure is provided on the bracket. By designing the bracket as a ring-shaped bracket body made of metal and a mounting frame made of plastic fixed to the bracket body, and providing a second snap-fit structure on the bracket body, the face frame is mounted on the bracket through the engagement of the first and second snap-fit structures. Because the bracket body is made of metal, it has high hardness and is not easily deformed, thus improving the service life of the switch bracket. At the same time, the mounting frame made of plastic supports and fixes the switch components, avoiding the problem of low snap-fit accuracy caused by the poor toughness of metal components. Therefore, the switch bracket simultaneously achieves the dual purpose of high structural strength and stability, and good toughness and high snap-fit accuracy when fixing and installing switch components. This effectively improves structural stability and service life. Attached Figure Description

[0020] Please refer to Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model provides a switch bracket 100, including: a face frame 1 and a bracket 2. The face frame 1 is made of plastic material, and the bracket 2 is made of a plastic and metal composite.
[0021] Specifically, the face frame 1 includes a face frame body 11, a mounting opening 12 penetrating the face frame body 11, and at least two first snap-fit structures 13 formed on the back of the face frame body 11.
[0022] The bracket 2 includes a ring-shaped bracket body 21 made of metal, a second snap-fit structure 22 formed on the bracket body 21 and matched with the first snap-fit structure 13, and a mounting frame 23 fixed to the bracket body 21, the mounting frame 23 being made of plastic.
[0023] In this embodiment, the bracket body 21 is made of stainless steel. The mounting frame 23 and the bracket body 21 are integrally injection molded, that is, the bracket body 21 is formed by injection molding after being placed into a plastic mold. This makes the bracket 21 rigid and non-deformable, and it will not deform when clamped with the switch function component 200, thus avoiding the situation where it cannot be clamped tightly, and improving reliability. The mounting frame 23 for mounting and supporting the switch function component 200 is formed by injection molding on the metal bracket body, which also solves the problems of low clamping accuracy and poor toughness of metal structures.
[0024] In other words, the bracket 2 embeds the metal bracket body 21 into the plastic mounting frame 23, thereby increasing the overall strength of the bracket 2, making it more durable, less prone to deformation, and improving its service life.
[0025] Specifically, the bracket body 21 is arranged around the mounting port 12, and the mounting frame 23 extends from the inner periphery of the bracket body 21 in a direction away from the face frame body 11. The mounting frame 23 is made of plastic material and is used to support the switch function component 200 and form a detachable fixed connection. Compared with metal structures, it has better toughness and higher snap-fit accuracy when fixing and supporting the switch function component 200.
[0026] The mounting frame 23 includes a ring-shaped frame plate 231 that is attached and fixed to the bracket body 21 near the face frame body 11, an edge ring 232 that extends from the outer periphery of the frame plate 231 and wraps around the outer periphery of the bracket body 21, and a frame arm 233 that extends from the inner periphery of the frame plate 231 away from the face frame body 11 and protrudes through the mounting opening 12. The frame arm 233 is used to support the installation of the switch function component 200.
[0027] More preferably, the bracket 2 further includes a locking hole 234 penetrating the frame arm 233, the locking hole 234 being used to engage the switch function component. For example, the locking hole 234 may include multiple holes evenly distributed on opposite sides of the frame arm 233, thereby allowing adjustment of the installation position of the switch function component.
[0028] The second snap-fit structure 22 and the first snap-fit structure 13 form a detachable fixed connection so that the bracket body 21 is fixed to the face frame body 11. In this embodiment, the first snap-fit structure 13 is a buckle protruding from the back side (the side near the bracket body 21) of the face frame body 11, and the second snap-fit structure 22 is a buckle hole that penetrates the bracket body 21 and matches the buckle. Of course, the structure of the detachable fixed connection is not limited to the above embodiment, and it is also feasible to interchange the first snap-fit structure 13 and the second snap-fit structure 22.
[0029] More preferably, the first snap-fit structure 13 includes four structures spaced apart around the mounting port 12, and the corresponding second snap-fit structure 22 also includes four structures. Of course, the number is not limited to the above embodiment.
[0030] To further enhance the fixing strength between the bracket 2 and the face frame 1, the bracket body 21 also includes a reinforcing hole 211 passing through it. At the same time, the mounting frame 23 also includes a reinforcing column 235 protruding from the frame plate 231, and the reinforcing column 235 is fixed in the reinforcing hole 211.
[0031] Compared with existing technologies, the switch bracket of this utility model includes a face frame and a bracket. A first snap-fit structure is provided on the bracket. By designing the bracket as a ring-shaped bracket body made of metal and a mounting frame made of plastic fixed to the bracket body, and providing a second snap-fit structure on the bracket body, the face frame is mounted on the bracket through the engagement of the first and second snap-fit structures. Because the bracket body is made of metal, it has high hardness and is not easily deformed, thus improving the service life of the switch bracket. At the same time, the mounting frame made of plastic supports and fixes the switch components, avoiding the problem of low snap-fit accuracy caused by the poor toughness of metal components. Therefore, the switch bracket simultaneously achieves the dual purpose of high structural strength and stability, and good toughness and high snap-fit accuracy when fixing and installing switch components. This effectively improves structural stability and service life.
