BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a headlamp switch device for a vehicle fog lamp switch. In particular, the headlamp switch device for headlight switch, dimmer switch, and fog switch function, while satisfying the EU R Fog regulations, is also available. A lamp switch device.

1 is a perspective view showing a conventional headlight switch lever of the fog light switch, Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view showing a headlamp switch lever of the prior art fog light switch, Figure 3 is an operation of the fog light switch and headlamp switch It is a figure which shows the range.

The headlamp switch lever of the prior art fog light switch combines the headlamp operation knob 10, the middle knob 20, the fog lamp operation knob 30, and the lever case 40 from the end of the lever 1 in order.

Here, the headlamp operation knob 10 can be rotated in three stages to the off position, the first stage of equalization, and the second stage of equalization. When the headlamp switch knob 10 is rotated, the contact holder therein is rotated. As the 11 rotates simultaneously, the circuit of the switch assembly 12 is changed, and the contact holder 11 is rotated by the stator 13.

And, the fog light operating knob 30 is to be rotated in two stages in the on position and the off position, when rotating the fog light operating knob 30 while the holder portion 31 integral with the knob rotates at the same time It is possible to change the on / off state of the switch assembly 32 and the rotational position is determined by the detent pin 33 corresponding to the middle knob 20.

The middle knob 20 is positioned between the headlamp operation knob 10 and the fog lamp operation knob 30 and fixed to the lever 1 so as not to rotate.

On the other hand, Figure 3 is a view showing the rotation range of the headlamp operation knob 10 and the fog light operation knob 30, the headlamp operation knob 10 is rotated 30 ° in the off position, the first stage of equalization, and Rotating 30 ° changes it to the second level of equalization.

In addition, the fog light operation knob 30 is provided with an off position at the first stage of the equalization of the headlamp operation knob 10, and when rotated 30 ° from the off position, it is changed to the on position.

However, the fog lamp switch combined headlamp switch lever structure of the prior art as described above has a problem that it is difficult to have a multi-function switch structure because it is made of a lever type, the fog light operation knob 30 and the headlamp operation knob 10 is independent Since it is configured to operate in the off, even if the headlamp operation knob 10 to operate off the fog light operation knob 30 has a problem that can be maintained in the on state.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, the headlamp switch device combined with a fog light switch to ensure a multi-function switch structure, such as headlamp switch, dimmer switch, fog switch by changing to a rotary switch structure, not a lever type The purpose is to provide.

In addition, another object of the present invention is to provide a fog lamp switch and headlamp switch device to satisfy the European rear fog regulations by configuring the fog switch to be off when the headlamp switch is turned off.
