Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to an integrated switch structure of dial and button, and in particular to an integrated structure of dial and button that can be rebounded and locked, and a flashlight. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the integrated dial and button structure on flashlights is mostly used for stepless dimming, but it cannot meet the operational needs of one-click extreme brightness or one-click mode switching, and the user needs to return to the original mode (such as white light mode) when the button is released. At the same time, the existing structure does not have a locking mechanism, which may pose a risk of accidental touch. Utility Model Content
[0003] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides an integrated structure of a dial button that can be rebounded and locked, as well as a flashlight.
[0004] A spring-loaded and lockable integrated dial button structure is mounted on a preset carrier and includes an integrated button knob and a PCB board.
[0005] The back of the integrated button knob is provided with a boss and two recesses, and the middle of the back protrudes downward and is nested with a first column and a second column; the first column and the second column are at the same center.
[0006] A spring is fitted on the first column, which causes the integrated button knob to be pressed down in the longitudinal direction and then rebound; a torsion spring is fitted on the second column, which causes the integrated button knob to rotate within a preset angle range in the lateral direction and then rebound.
[0007] The preset carrier is provided with retractable glass beads and grooves that match the protrusions;
[0008] After the integrated dial button structure is installed on the preset carrier, when the glass bead is inserted into either of the two recessed holes and the protrusion is aligned with the groove, pressing the integrated button knob will trigger the PCB board to generate a first working mode, and rotating the integrated button knob will trigger the PCB board to generate a second working mode. When the glass bead is inserted into the other of the two recessed holes and the protrusion is misaligned with the groove, the integrated button knob is restricted from being pressed, and rotating the integrated button knob will trigger the PCB board to generate a third working mode.
[0009] A flashlight includes a body and an integrated structure of a spring-loaded and lockable dial button as described above; the PCB board is disposed in the inner cavity of the body; the outer surface of the body is provided with an inwardly recessed mounting position communicating with the inner cavity; the mounting position is provided with the glass bead and a groove matching the boss; the integrated button knob is assembled in the mounting position.
[0010] This utility model provides a resilient and lockable integrated dial button structure and flashlight. A torsion spring and a spring are installed on the integrated button knob, triggering different working modes through lateral and longitudinal movements respectively. Simultaneously, two recessed holes corresponding to the glass ball correspond to two gear positions or states. In one state, the misalignment of the boss and the recess forms a locking structure, restricting the longitudinal movement of the integrated button knob and avoiding the risk of accidental activation. Compared with existing technologies, this technical solution not only adds a one-button trigger working mode through a simple structural design but also helps to simplify the circuit and increase the reliability of the lock.

Detailed Implementation
[0019] To make the technical problems, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0020] A flip-out and lockable integrated dial button structure and flashlight are provided, such as... Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the integrated structure of the spring-loaded and lockable dial button is mounted on a preset carrier. The preset carrier can be a flashlight, but is not limited to it. That is, the integrated structure of the spring-loaded and lockable dial button provided by this utility model has universality.
[0021] The integrated structure of the spring-loaded and lockable dial button includes an integrated button knob 7 and a PCB board 14. The back of the integrated button knob is provided with a boss 71 and two recesses 72, and the center of the back protrudes downward and is nested with a first pillar 73 and a second pillar 74; the first pillar and the second pillar are at the same center.
[0022] A spring 5 is fitted on the first column, which causes the integrated button knob to be pressed down in the vertical direction and then spring back; a torsion spring 6 is fitted on the second column, which causes the integrated button knob to rotate within a preset angle range in the horizontal direction and then spring back.
[0023] The preset carrier is provided with retractable glass beads 2 and grooves 11 that match the boss;
[0024] After the integrated dial button structure is installed on the preset carrier, when the glass bead is inserted into either of the two recessed holes and the boss and the groove are aligned, pressing the integrated button knob will trigger the PCB board to generate the first working mode. Rotating the integrated button knob will trigger the PCB board to generate the second working mode. When the glass bead is inserted into the other of the two recessed holes and the boss and the groove are misaligned, the integrated button knob is restricted from being pressed. Rotating the integrated button knob will trigger the PCB board to generate the third working mode.
[0025] Specifically, the boss is located on the back edge of the integrated button knob, and the shape of the recess matches the shape of the glass bead, for example, a circular recess.
[0026] The first and second pillars are used to mount the spring and torsion spring, respectively. In one implementation, the height of the first pillar is greater than the height of the second pillar, and the diameter of the first pillar is smaller than the diameter of the second pillar; that is, the first pillar is on the inner circle of the concentric circles, and the second pillar is on the outer circle. When the integrated button knob is pressed, the spring on the first pillar is compressed, while the torsion spring is unaffected; when the integrated button knob is rotated, the torsion spring on the second pillar is compressed, while the spring is unaffected.
[0027] The boss and the groove match each other, allowing the boss to snap into the groove; at the same time, their positions correspond, that is, when the integrated button knob is rotated to the point where the boss and the groove are aligned, pressing the integrated button knob will cause the boss to snap into the groove; when the integrated button knob is rotated to the point where the boss and the groove are misaligned, the boss will abut against the top of the preset carrier, making the integrated button knob unable to be pressed, thereby achieving the locking function.
[0028] The first, second, and third working modes are triggered by pressing or rotating the integrated button knob, which forms a switch operation with the PCB board. The specific functions represented by the three modes can be flexibly set according to the actual situation.
[0029] Furthermore, the integrated button knob is located on the top of the PCB board; a spring 4 is provided at the bottom of the first column. When the integrated button knob is pressed or rotated, the spring is used to contact the contacts on the PCB board and generate the first working mode, the second working mode and the third working mode; that is, the integrated button knob can generate the corresponding working mode after the spring contacts the contacts on the PCB board.
[0030] Preferably, screw holes 41 are provided at the bottom of the first column and on the spring piece, and the spring piece is connected to the bottom of the first column by screws 3.
[0031] A flashlight is provided, including a body 1 and an integrated structure of a spring-loaded and lockable dial button as described above; a PCB board is disposed in the inner cavity of the body; the outer surface of the body is provided with an inwardly recessed mounting position that communicates with the inner cavity; a glass bead 2 and a groove 11 matching the boss are disposed in the mounting position; an integrated button knob is assembled in the mounting position.
[0032] Furthermore, a limiting post 12 is provided within the mounting position to limit the rotation angle range of the integrated button knob. Specifically, the limiting post is located at the edge of the mounting position and abuts against the protrusion on the integrated button knob to prevent the rotation range of the integrated button knob from exceeding the limit.
[0033] Furthermore, a bracket 16 is provided inside the cylinder body, and a PCB board is installed on one side of the bracket.
[0034] Furthermore, it also includes a battery 17, which is disposed in the inner cavity of the cylinder and located on the other side of the bracket.
[0035] Furthermore, it also includes a tube head 14 connected to the tube body; inside the tube head, facing the tube body, are arranged sequentially a first waterproof ring 13, a lens 12, a reflector 11, a centering ring 10, a lamp plate 9, and a second waterproof ring 8. The components inside the tube head are existing structural parts, and their functions will not be described in detail here.
[0036] Furthermore, in one implementation, the first working mode is defined as the flashlight's white light mode; the second working mode is defined as a one-button ultra-bright mode or a one-button switching mode. Understandably, the working mode is not limited to the above definitions, and the recessed holes on the back of the integrated button knob are not limited to two, but can also be multiple, each corresponding to a gear level or a state.
[0037] The above is a description of the present utility model to help understand it; however, the implementation of the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Any changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, or simplifications made without departing from the principle of the present utility model shall be considered equivalent substitutions and shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
