Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of panel switches, and more particularly to a panel switch. Background Technology

[0002] Panel switches, as control devices, are ubiquitous in our daily lives. With the diversification of people's needs, the styles of panel switches are becoming increasingly diverse. However, current power switches have complex structures and require numerous installation procedures, making them quite complicated. Secure installation usually requires screws, making the actual installation process complex and cumbersome. Furthermore, screw connections affect aesthetics. Some panel switches currently use simple plug-in connections, which are not ideal for fixation, leading to panel wobbling during actual use and presenting certain defects. Therefore, it is evident that current panel switch technologies suffer from drawbacks such as complex screw structures or wobbly simple plug-in connections. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings of related technologies, this application provides a panel switch.

[0004] A panel switch includes a base box, a mounting base, a mounting plate, a rotating mechanism, and a switch key. The base box has first limiting protrusions on both sides, and the mounting base has first locking grooves on both sides that engage with the first limiting protrusions. The base box has limiting grooves at its upper and lower ends, and the mounting base has limiting pieces at its upper and lower ends, which engage with the limiting grooves. The mounting base has a mounting groove for inserting the rotating mechanism, and rotating holes are provided on both sides of the mounting groove. The rotating mechanism has limiting inclined surfaces at its upper and lower ends for engaging with the mounting groove, and rotating protrusions on both sides of the rotating mechanism for rotating with the rotating holes. The rotating mechanism has a rotating groove, and a stationary contact and a rocker plate are fixedly installed inside the base box. A moving contact is located on the rocker plate, and the rotating groove can abut against the rocker plate when rotating up and down, causing the moving contact to abut against or separate from the stationary contact. Furthermore, a first guide slope is provided on the first limiting protrusion.

[0005] Furthermore, the mounting part where the rotating hole is located is provided with a second guide slope, and the rotating protrusion is provided with a third guide slope; the second guide slope and the third guide slope cooperate to make the rotating protrusion engage with the rotating hole.

[0006] Furthermore, the mounting plate is provided with multiple second slots, and the fixing seat is provided with multiple second limiting protrusions corresponding to the second slots; fixing parts are also provided on both sides of the mounting plate, and the inner wall of the fixing part abuts against the outer wall of the bottom box.

[0007] Furthermore, the upper and lower ends of the rotating mechanism are provided with third limiting protrusions; the switch is provided with a third slot that cooperates with the third limiting protrusions.

[0008] Furthermore, the switch has a rotating groove inside, and the inner wall of the rotating groove surrounds and abuts against the outer wall of the rotating hole.

[0009] Furthermore, the fixed base is provided with a first arc surface; the rotating mechanism is provided with a second arc surface that rotates in coordination with the first arc surface.

[0010] Furthermore, a clearance groove is provided on the back of the second limiting protrusion.

[0011] Furthermore, the panel switch is also provided with a fixed base.

[0012] This application has at least one of the following beneficial effects: 1. The base box and the fixed seat are engaged by the first limiting protrusion and the first slot, the limiting groove and the limiting piece; the rotating mechanism and the fixed seat are engaged by the mounting groove and the limiting inclined surface, the rotating hole and the rotating protrusion. The rotating protrusion rotates along the rotating hole, so that the rotating mechanism can rotate up and down along the mounting groove. The up and down rotation of the rotating groove drives the rocker to rotate, which drives the moving contact to abut or separate from the stationary contact.

[0027] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-10 This application will be described in further detail.

[0028] Reference Figure 1A panel switch includes a base box 1, a mounting base 2, a mounting plate 3, a rotating mechanism 4, and an on / off switch 5.

[0029] Reference Figure 2 The bottom box 1 has two first limiting protrusions 11 on each side, and the fixing seat 2 has first slots 21 on each side that engage with the first limiting protrusions 11. The bottom box 1 has limiting grooves 12 at its upper and lower ends, and the fixing seat 2 has limiting pieces 22 at its upper and lower ends, which engage with the limiting grooves 12. The first limiting protrusions 11 have first guide slopes 15 for guiding the fixing seat 2 and the bottom box 1 into engagement. When the fixing seat 2 and the bottom box 1 are engaged, pressing the fixing seat 2 towards the bottom box 1 causes the first slots 21 to move from the bottom to the top along the first guide slope 15. After the first slots 21 have completely passed the first limiting protrusions 11, the first limiting protrusions 11 engage with the first slots 21, and the limiting pieces 22 engage with the limiting grooves 12.

[0030] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The fixed base 2 is provided with a mounting groove 23 for inserting the rotating mechanism 4. The rotating mechanism 4 has limiting inclined surfaces 41 at both ends for engaging with the mounting groove 23. The limiting inclined surfaces 41 also serve as guides for insertion. The mounting groove 23 has rotating holes 24 on both sides. The rotating mechanism 4 has rotating protrusions 42 on both sides for engaging with the rotating holes 24. The mounting part where the rotating holes 24 are located has a second guide inclined surface 25, and the rotating protrusions 42 have a third guide inclined surface 45. When the fixed base 2 and the rotating mechanism 4 are engaged, pressing the rotating mechanism 4 moves it toward the fixed base 2. The insertion part of the rotating mechanism 4 is inserted into the mounting groove 23. The third guide inclined surface 45 moves relative to the second guide inclined surface 25. The second guide inclined surface 25 and the third guide inclined surface 45 engage so that the rotating protrusions 42 are fully engaged with the rotating holes 24. The fixed base 2 is provided with a first arc surface 27, and the rotating mechanism 4 is provided with a second arc surface 47. At this time, the first arc surface 27 and the second arc surface 47 are in contact, and the rotating mechanism 4 can rotate along the rotating protrusion 42. However, due to the limitation of the mounting groove 23, the rotating mechanism 4 can only move up and down to a certain extent.

[0031] Reference Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10The panel switch also includes a fixing base 7. The fixing base 7 includes a mounting bracket portion and a panel portion. The panel portion is positioned above the fixing base 2 and is used to install the mounting plate 3. The mounting bracket portion encloses the already engaged fixing base 2 and base box 1. The engaged fixing base 2 and base box 1 are pushed into the mounting bracket portion, and then the mounting plate 3 is installed. The bottom of the mounting plate 3 fits into the inner bottom surface of the fixing base 7. The panel portion of the fixing base 7 has four square holes 71 around the fixing base 2, and the mounting plate 3 has four square recesses 37 at corresponding positions. When the mounting plate 3 is fitted into the fixing base 7, the square recesses 37 also fit into the square holes 71. The fixing base 7 can be used to install multiple panel switches and can have multiple mounting bracket portions for installing different panel switches or sockets. A single fixing base 7 has multiple fixing holes, and the mounting plate 3 has the same fixing holes at corresponding positions for inserting screws or pins to fix the fixing base 7 to the wall. In this embodiment, a single fixing base 7 has four fixing holes.

[0032] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Figure 9 The mounting plate 3 has four second slots 31, and the fixing base 2 has four second limiting protrusions 26 corresponding to the second slots 31. Each second limiting protrusion 26 has a guide surface and a clearance groove 28 on its back. When the mounting plate 3 and the fixing base 2 are engaged, pressing the mounting plate 3 towards the fixing base 2 causes it to move along the guide surface. After the second slots 31 have completely passed the second limiting protrusions 26, the second limiting protrusions 26 engage with the second slots 31. Fixing parts 32 are also provided on both sides of the mounting plate 3. At this time, the inner wall of the fixing part 32 abuts against the outer wall of the base box 1, further reinforcing and protecting the panel switch to prevent it from shaking. At this time, the fixing base 2, the base box 1, the mounting plate 3, and the fixing base 7 are firmly connected. The fixing base 2, the base box 1, the mounting plate 3, and the fixing base 7 are connected and fixed together through the second slots 31 and the second limiting protrusions 26.

[0033] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The rotating mechanism 4 is further provided with third limiting protrusions 43 at its upper and lower ends; the switch 5 is provided with a third groove 51 that mates with the third limiting protrusions 43. The switch 5 is provided with a rotating groove 54, the inner wall of which surrounds and abuts against the outer wall of the rotating hole 24. When installing the switch 5 and the rotating mechanism 4, pressing the switch moves it toward the rotating mechanism 4, the outer wall of the rotating hole 2 is squeezed into the inner wall of the rotating groove 54, and the third limiting protrusions 43 engage with the third groove 51. The switch 5 can rotate relative to the fixed base 2, driving the rotating mechanism 4 to rotate relative to the fixed base 2.

[0034] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 6The rotating mechanism 4 is provided with a rotating groove 49. A stationary contact 62 and a rocker plate 60 are fixedly installed inside the base box 1. A moving contact 61 is installed on the rocker plate 60. When the rotating groove 49 rotates up and down, it can abut against the rocker plate 60, causing the moving contact 61 to abut against or separate from the stationary contact 62. For example, when the lower part of the switch 5 is pressed, the rotating mechanism 4 rotates upward, and the lower end of the inner wall of the rotating groove 49 abuts against the rocker plate 60, causing the rocker plate 60 to rotate upward, and the moving contact 61 separates from the stationary contact 62; when the upper part of the switch 5 is pressed, the rotating mechanism 4 rotates downward, and the upper end of the inner wall of the rotating groove 49 abuts against the rocker plate 60, causing the rocker plate 60 to rotate downward, and the moving contact 61 separates from the stationary contact 62; when the moving contact 61 abuts against the stationary contact, the power is connected.

[0035] The base box 1 and the fixed seat 2 are engaged by the first limiting protrusion 11 and the first slot 21, the limiting groove 12 and the limiting piece 22; the rotating mechanism 4 and the fixed seat 2 are engaged by the mounting groove 23 and the limiting inclined surface 41, the rotating hole 24 and the rotating protrusion 42. The rotating protrusion 42 rotates along the rotating hole 24, so that the rotating mechanism 4 can rotate up and down along the mounting groove 23. The rotating groove 49 rotates up and down, driving the rocker 60 to rotate, which drives the moving contact 61 to abut or separate from the stationary contact 62.

[0036] In summary, this application provides a panel switch that is simple to install, requires few installation steps, does not use screws, and has a secure and reliable installation method.

[0037] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
