Description

Switch structure

本新型是有關一種開關結構，特別是指一種具有強化結構，能遮蔽電磁波干擾且提供多樣化控制功能之開關結構。The present invention relates to a switch structure, and more particularly to a switch structure having a reinforced structure, capable of shielding electromagnetic wave interference and providing various control functions.

     按，電子式開關的規格與尺寸大小種類非常繁多，應用範圍也相當的廣泛，而一般精密設備、小型設備或小型電器較常使用的電子式開關，大都稱為機敏開關或微型開關，由於此類開關的體積相當的短小與輕薄，因此可應用於空間有限或僅能設置小型或微型開關的電子裝置或儀器上，舉如3C電子產品或微型電腦等產業應用。
     且知，傳統之微型開關，主要是由一基座、一活動軸與一按鈕所組成，且基座之一容置槽內設置一電極組及一導電彈片，其動作方式是經由按壓按鈕而帶動活動軸驅使電極組之正、負電極相互接觸而導通，以達到開啟與關閉電源之用途。但傳統微型開關是於前述活動軸、導電彈片與電極組之間採用機械方式互動而啟、閉電源，因此在長期頻繁使用下，容易造成微型開關的內部構件之間產生作動不良或損壞的問題。
     然而，傳統觸摸式微型開關僅能對所控制的電子裝置或電器裝置提供單一功能之操作，如以燈光控制而言，傳統開關僅能進行單純啟閉功能，或者以連續啟閉方式切換同組燈光不同燈泡之啟閉，並無具有其他功能控制，如明暗調節等。
     此外，傳統微型開關之體積較小，且外殼為塑膠材質所製，其結構強度不足，於組裝時容易因和對接物之組固而造成殼體損壞。再者，由於傳統微型開關不具有遮蔽電磁波干擾之構造，容易受電磁波干擾而影響開關運作，而無法正常控制電子裝置。
     有鑑於此，如何解決前述傳統開關之缺點，實乃相關技術領域之人士亟待解決之課題。According to the electronic switch, the specifications and sizes are very wide, and the application range is quite extensive. Generally, the electronic switches that are commonly used in precision equipment, small equipment or small appliances are mostly called smart switches or micro switches. The size of the switch is quite small and thin, so it can be applied to electronic devices or instruments with limited space or only small or micro switches, such as industrial applications such as 3C electronic products or microcomputers.
It is known that the conventional micro switch is mainly composed of a base, a movable shaft and a button, and an electrode group and a conductive elastic piece are arranged in one of the receiving grooves of the base, and the action mode is by pressing a button. The movable shaft drives the positive and negative electrodes of the electrode group to be in contact with each other to be turned on, so as to open and close the power source. However, the conventional micro switch uses a mechanical interaction between the movable shaft, the conductive elastic piece and the electrode group to open and close the power supply. Therefore, under long-term frequent use, it is easy to cause malfunction or damage between the internal components of the micro switch. .
However, the traditional touch microswitch can only provide a single function operation for the controlled electronic device or the electrical device. For example, in the case of lighting control, the conventional switch can only perform the simple opening and closing function, or switch the same group in the continuous opening and closing mode. Different light bulbs are turned on and off, and there is no other function control, such as light and dark adjustment.
In addition, the conventional micro switch has a small volume and the outer casing is made of a plastic material, and its structural strength is insufficient, and the casing is easily damaged due to the assembly of the butt joint during assembly. Furthermore, since the conventional microswitch does not have a structure for shielding electromagnetic interference, it is susceptible to electromagnetic wave interference and affects the operation of the switch, and the electronic device cannot be normally controlled.
In view of this, how to solve the shortcomings of the aforementioned conventional switches is an urgent problem to be solved by those skilled in the related art.

     本新型揭露一種開關結構，尤指一種觸摸式微型開關，用以控制一個或多個電子裝置或電器設備(未圖式)，如汽車之電子啟動裝置，用於照明之燈光設備或音響設備等，並可藉由觸摸該微型開關之觸摸模式作為控制電子裝置之多種功能。
     續請參閱第一圖至第五圖為本新型開關結構之較佳實施例之一，本創作之開關結構包含一呈圓柱型態之本體1、一圓形金屬感測片2、一控制單元3、一金屬製導電元件4、一反光杯6、一金屬殼體7及一底蓋8。
     金屬套殼7包括一干涉壁71，一設於干涉壁71頂部之卡緣72，其向外突出該干涉壁71，及一形成於該干涉壁71內並穿透該金屬套殼71之套孔73，該金屬套殼7用以固接於一對接物之預設位置9，並且套接於本體1用以遮蔽電磁波對內部元件造成之干擾。
     本體1係採用塑膠材料一體射出成型，內部形成一容置槽11，且本體1頂部形成一供給人手觸摸的平坦觸摸部12，底部形成一連通容置槽11的槽口111。本體1係套入金屬套殼7之套孔73。
     金屬感測片2設於容置槽11內鄰近觸摸部12底部而足以感測人手觸摸的位置，能夠經由觸摸部12感測人手觸摸之多種觸摸模式而輸出一感測信號；由於人手接觸觸摸部12時於所述人手與金屬感測片2之間會產生電容效應，因此該電容效應所產生的電位差即形成該感測信號。
     控制單元3設於容置槽11內鄰近槽口111的位置，且控制單元3具有圓形電路板之電路元件30，該電路元件30上具有積體電路或晶片，且電路元件30電連接有複數組電源線31及訊號線32，所述複數電源線31及複數訊號線32分別通過底蓋8之出孔82，經由本體1底部之槽口111延伸至容置槽11外，而電連接外界電源及其他電子裝置或電器設備(未圖示)。
     所述電器可為一般室內、外家電，特別是浴室內的電燈，也可以是用來啟、閉水龍頭或開啟馬桶進行沖水的電子控制器。該反光杯6介設於金屬感測片2底部與控制單元3頂部之間，而間隔金屬感測片2與控制單元3。
     導電元件4電連接於金屬感測片2底部及控制單元3之間，用以傳遞金屬感測片2之感測信號至控制單元3，令控制單元3輸出一控制信號以控制一電子裝置或電器設備。
     藉由上述結構組成，可供據以實施本創作，該金屬殼體7可插置於一預設位置9表面之一容置孔91內(如第六圖所示)，該預設位置9可為室內、外利於人手接觸的牆面，也可以是家電或衛浴設備的表面，且容置孔91可連通外界電源與其他電器。
     本體1之一外周壁10緊靠於金屬殼體7之干涉壁71的內壁面。金屬殼體7之卡緣72靠底於容置孔91之頂部(如第六圖所示)，進而使金屬殼體7塞住容置孔91，其中觸摸部12顯露於容置孔91外之預設位置9表面，並於安裝金屬殼體7期間，將金屬殼體7底部之電源線31及訊號線32經由容置孔91電連接至外界電源及其他電器。
     本新型開關結構於使用時，當使用者之手指觸摸該預設位置9表面之開關觸摸部12時，能使金屬感測片2產生出感測信號，且控制單元3經由導電元件4接收該感測信號，進而經由該電源線31及複數訊號線32對外界其他電子裝置或電器設備輸出控制信號，以啟、閉及控制所述電子裝置或電器設備。特別說明的是，控制單元3包括一電路元件30，用以接收導電元件4所傳輸之感測信號，並依據該感測信號執行至少一控制功能以控制該至少一電子裝置，該控制功能至少包括開啟及關閉該電子裝置及切換不同電子裝置之一。
     本體1之觸摸部12之觸摸模式至少包括於一第一時間內觸摸之時間長短、觸摸之次數、及觸摸次數之間隔時間，該第一時間可設定為10秒(惟不以此為限)，而金屬感測片2可依據該觸摸模式發出相對應之感測信號。該控制單元3更可依據觸摸部12之若干觸摸模式的感測信號多段控制一車輛之啟動及關閉電子裝置(未圖示)，用以提供電力於該車輛、發動該車輛引擎及關閉該車輛引擎，其具體實施方式例如：觸摸該觸摸部12達2秒後可啟動該車輛之啟動及關閉電子裝置，用以提供電力於該車輛，若再短觸摸該觸摸部12一次可發動引擎，而短觸摸一次再行觸摸達2秒可熄火，惟前述觸摸模式僅為示例，並不以其為限。
     又於另一實施例中，本新型之開關結構可用於一電器設備，其可為具有一照明功能之電器設備，該控制單元3之電路元件30可依據該感測信號控制該電器設備之照明明暗亮度，而當電器設備具有一音量輸出功能，該控制單元3可依據該感測信號控制該電器設備之音量大小。以燈光控制為例，具體實施之作法可為：如單獨觸摸1次觸摸部12可用以啟閉燈光電源、連續觸摸3次觸摸部12可用以切換不同盞燈、觸摸時間3秒可啟動明暗調整控制、或長按3秒再短按一次可切換不同場合(如客廳和廚房)之燈具。所述控制信號皆經由複數訊號線32傳送至各電器設備。
     此外，本創作觸摸式微形開關更包括一震動器80，該底蓋8之頂部設有一凸座81，該震動器80容置於該凸座81內。震動器80可依據感測信號產生震動，而使震動器80驅使所述本體1與觸碰件12同步震動，令使用者察覺觸摸開關1正在進行啟閉或其他控制功能。
     值得一提的是，當潑撒水或其他液體至該預設位置8表面時，由於本體1的觸摸部12與金屬殼體7之干涉壁71之間並無可供水或其他液體滲透進入容置槽11內的接縫或空隙，因此能夠防止水或其他液體影響及損害本體1內部之感測片2、控制單元3及導電元件4。
     除上述構造之外，本體1之外周壁10上形成有多數相互平行的凸階13，而使本體1外周壁10形成階層式型態，以利套合於金屬殼體7之干涉壁71並形成較佳之干涉作用，進而防止本體1鬆動或脫落，並利用多層凸階13防止水或其他液體滲入容置孔81內。觸摸部12周邊延伸至本體1之外周壁10外而形成一環狀凸緣121，該凸緣121能夠遮蔽下方外周壁10上的所述凸環13，且凸緣121更加能夠遮蔽容置孔91，以更進一步防止水或其他液體滲入容置孔91內。
     本體1之外周壁10上形成有至少一方向指示用肋塊14，以指示套入金屬殼體7之定位位置，該肋塊14在本實施上可為二個，分別形成於鄰近凸緣121的外周壁10上，且所述肋塊14相對稱。
     續請參閱第一圖及第五圖，本創作也包含一第一發光二極體51，該觸摸部12可呈透光型態，且觸摸部12在本實施上可為半透明之透光型態；該第一發光二極體51設於控制單元3頂部中央，而使第一發光二極體51位於容置槽11底部中央。第一發光二極體51本實施上可採用RGB全彩型之發光二極體，該控制單元3接收該感測信號時，能夠啟、閉第一發光二極體51。
     反光杯6具有一由下而上擴徑的反光錐形槽61，且反光杯6設於第一發光二極體51外圍的容置槽11內，而使第一發光二極體51位於錐形槽61內。是以，當使用者未觸摸該觸摸部12時，該第一發光二極體51可經由控制單元3控制而發出一種色彩(如綠色)的光線，且該綠色光線能接受錐形槽61反射而聚光，而使光線更加均勻，並通過半透明之觸摸部12往本體1上方投射。
     當使用者觸摸該觸摸部12時，該第一發光二極體51可經由控制單元3控制而發出另一種色彩(例如紅色)的光線，而使該紅色光線往本體1上方投射，同時於觸摸部12形成紅色光線；如此，可利用所述綠色與紅色光線產生照明及指示的作用，並顯示微型開關結構所屬之電燈、家電或衛浴設備的使用狀態。特別的是，本創作之第一發光二極體51可依據觸摸部12的觸摸模式而反應，令使用者可藉由第一發光二極體51之發光而得知其觸摸模式之切換是否成功。
     於一具體實施中，導電元件4實際上可呈錐狀之螺旋型態，而使導電元件4沿著錐形槽61內壁螺旋延伸至所述感測片2及控制單元3，而閃避第一發光二極體51發出之光線，以避免導電元件4影響或遮蔽所述光線，且由於導電元件4呈螺旋型態而形同彈簧，因此導電元件4可彈性迫緊於所述感測片2底部及控制單元3頂部之間。
     在另一具體的實施上，本創作更加包含有一圓形透光片21，介設於所述觸摸部12底部與金屬感測片2之間的容置槽11內，該觸摸部12在本實施上可呈透明之透光型態，該透光片21呈半透明之透光型態，以遮蔽容置槽11內之金屬感測片2、導電元件4與控制單元3。
     藉由上述，該第一發光二極體51發出之光線可接受錐形槽61反射而聚光，並通過所述透光片21及透明之觸摸部12往本體1上方投射出套孔73，同時於觸摸部12反映出透出的光線。
     反光杯6底部周邊形成有至少一勾部63，該控制單元3上鄰近中央的位置形成至少一供給勾部63置入的定位孔33，而使反光杯6定位於透光片21底部與控制單元3頂部之間，且感測片2定位於錐形槽61頂部。
     在另一具體的實施上，本創作更加包含有多數第二發光二極體52，其設於控制單元3頂部，且等間隔排列於第一發光二極體51四周，而使第二發光二極體52位於反光杯6外圍，致使反光杯6間隔於第一與第二發光二極體51、52之間，以防止第一與第二發光二極體51、52產生的光線相互干擾，第二發光二極體52在本實施上可為單色型式。該反光杯6外壁形成一反光環面62，第二發光二極體52位於反光環面62外圍；該控制單元3能夠接收該感測信號而啟、閉所述第二發光二極體52。
     藉由上述，第二發光二極體52可經由控制單元3控制而發出光線，且該光線能接受反光環面62反射，並往本體1上方四周投射，而產生一種圓環形態的光芒；如此，可利用所述光線作為背景光，或是產生照明及指示的作用，也可以用來顯示微型開關所屬之電燈、家電或衛浴設備的使用狀態。
     綜上所述，本新型開關結構利用觸摸部12不同之觸摸模式產生感測信號，進而傳送至控制單元3使其對電子裝置或電器設備執行多樣化之功能控制，並搭配第一及第二發光二極體51及52的發光及震動器作為確認控制之依據，且金屬套殼7可強化開關結構並有效遮蔽電磁波干擾，藉此改善傳統開關單一功能控制、結構強度不足且受電磁波干擾之缺點。
     上述詳細說明為針對本新型一種較佳之可行實施例說明而已，惟該實施例並非用以限定本新型之申請專利範圍，凡其它未脫離本新型所揭示之技藝精神下所完成之均等變化與修飾變更，均應包含於本新型所涵蓋之專利範圍中。The invention discloses a switch structure, in particular to a touch type micro switch for controlling one or more electronic devices or electrical devices (not shown), such as an electronic starter for a car, a lighting device or an audio device for lighting, etc. The touch mode of the micro switch can be used as a function of controlling the electronic device.
