A mating guide groove (21b) is formed in the mounting hole (21) of the housing (2), and the mating guide groove (21b) is fitted with a guide rib (4b) of the movable post (4) to guide the movable post (4) to move in the axial direction of the movable post (4) in the mounting hole (21). The charging base according to claim 14.

18. A limiting step (2c) is formed in the mounting hole (21) of the housing (2) and is used to abut against a limiting flange (4c) of the movable post (4) to limit the movable post (4) to a predetermined pressing position. The charging base according to claim 14.

19. The switch (5) an insulating base (50) fixed to the circuit board (6); two fixed terminals (52) fixed to the insulating base (50) and electrically connected to the circuit board (6); an elastic terminal (53) provided on the insulating base (50) for electrically connecting the two fixed terminals (52); Furthermore, The pressing portion (51) is movably installed on the insulating base (50), and the elastic terminal (53) is adapted to be pressed by the pressing portion (51) and move to a closed position where the two fixed terminals (52) are electrically connected. The charging base according to claim 14.

20. The elastic terminal (53) is disk-shaped, and a peripheral portion (53a) of the elastic terminal (53) is welded to one of the fixed terminals (52), and a central portion (53b) of the elastic terminal (53) is adapted to be pressed by the pressing portion (51) and move from a disconnected position where it is separated from the other fixed terminal (52) to a closed position where it is in contact with the other fixed terminal (52).

20. The charging base of claim 19.

21. The switch (5) An elastic body (54) provided on the insulating base (50) Furthermore, The pressing portion (51) is joined to one side of the elastic body (54), and the other side of the elastic body (54) is pressed against the elastic terminal (53), When the external button (3) is pressed, the elastic body (54) is elastically deformed by the pressure of the movable post (4), and pushes the elastic terminal (53) into the closed position; When the external button (3) is released, the movable post (4) automatically returns from the pressed position to the released position due to the elastic restoring force of the elastic body (54).

20. The charging base of claim 19.
