Rocker switch

Abstract

A rocker switch of the present invention includes a driving member, a follower, and a driving elastic member. When a button is pressed, the button can push the driving member to rotate, and a lockingmember stops the rotation of the follower. As the driving member rotates, the stationary follower provides a continuous elastic force to the driving elastic member. When the driving member rotates until the elastic force of the driving elastic member is greater than the blocking force of the locking member to prevent the follower from rotating, the driving elastic member can drive the follower torotate, the elastic force of the driving elastic member is released instantaneously so as to drive the follower to rotate rapidly, and the follower pushes a movable contact to move rapidly so that themovable contact rapidly contacts a fixed contact or quickly separates from the fixed contact, thereby enabling the rocker switch to be quickly switched on and off. The purpose of this is to significantly extend the life of the rocker switch, the quick on-off of the rocker switch is independent of the operation speed of the hand or the handle or the button, and better stability and stronger reliability are achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of switches, in particular to a rocker switch. Background technique [0002] Most rocker switches use hand or handle operation buttons to directly drive the moving contacts to realize the switch on-off function. When the hand or the handle is operated at a fast speed, the moving contact moves quickly; however, when the hand or the handle is operated at a slow speed, the moving contact moves slowly, and when the moving contact moves slowly, the speed at which the moving contact is disconnected is also slow. Slow, this will cause long-term arcing between the moving contact and the static contact, which will cause the switch to burn out too quickly, or cause the moving contact and the static contact to be welded and cannot be broken, thereby reducing the service life of the switch . Contents of the invention [0003] The object of the present invention is to overcome the disadvantages of the prior art, and ...
