背景技术
目前的按钮开关面板上可能具有多个开关模组以用于不同的控制电路,例如控制不同的灯具或电源插座。对于不熟悉安装在陌生场所(例如宾馆)的某个位置的开关面板的使用者无法清楚地了解开关面板的各个操作位置或开关面板上的各个子面板分别用于控制哪个灯具或电源插座。因此,使用者无法准确方便地使用这些开关面板。
已知可以在开关面板上印制图案或文字,或者在开关面板上贴上带有图案或文字的胶纸,来指示开关面板的功能。但是这些印制的图案或文字是难以修改或从面板上去除的,所贴上的胶纸也难以干净地清除和更换。因此,当希望改变开关面板所控制的灯具或电源插座时,更换对开关面板的功能的指示标记是非常不方便的。另外,即使可以通过更换贴纸来改变指示标记,该贴纸的方式也使得该开关面板显得不够美观。
因此,希望提供一种开关装置,其能够方便地更换指示标记,并具有美观视觉效果。

图2示出了根据本公开的一实施方式的开关装置的指示块;
图3示出了图1中的开关装置的侧视截面图;
图4示出了图3中的开关装置的区域A的局部放大图。
纵观以上附图,相同的附图标记将被理解为指代相同的、类似的或相应的特征或功能。
具体实施方式
现在将对本公开的实施例做出参考,实施例的一个或多个示例由附图所示出。实施例通过本公开的阐述所提供,并且不旨在作为对本公开的限制。例如,作为一个实施例的一部分所示出或描述的特征可能在另一个实施例中被使用以生成进一步的实施例。本公开旨在包括属于本公开范围和精神的这些和其他修改和变化。
图1是根据本公开的一个实施方式的开关装置的分解视图。该开关装置包括安装面板1,以用于固定到安装所述开关装置的表面,例如墙壁。至少一个开关模组2(图1中为四个)可以以任意排列方式安装到该安装面板1。开关模组2可用于连接到一个工作电路以控制所述工作电路的通断,例如用于控制灯具或电源插座的接通和关断。图1中的开关模组2为按钮开关模组,每个按钮开关模组具有一个开关按钮21。这种按钮式开关模组的特性是,当第一次按下按钮时,开关模组闭合或断开,当再次按下按钮时,开关模组断开或闭合。在安装面板1上与每个开关模组2相对应的位置设有通孔11,当开关模组2安装到安装面板1时,开关按钮21伸入所述通孔11中。
操作面板3活动连接到安装面板1,其可被驱动以分别操作每个所述开关模组2。在图1所示的实施方式中,仅提供一个整体的操作面板3。该操作面板3可以枢轴连接到安装面板1的中央,以便能够绕枢轴朝向各个方向摆动而分别按压位于枢轴周围的各个方位的多个开关模组2的开关按钮21,以操作该各个开关模组2闭合或关断。当然,还应当提供例如弹簧的复位机构以使所述操作面板3在每次相对于安装面板1枢转摆动而进行按压操作后回复到平行于安装面板1的平衡位置,以便于下一次操作。
在每个开关模组2的开关按钮21上可拆卸地套设有一个指示块4以指示每个开关模组2的功能。该指示块4设置在开关按钮21与操作面板3之间的位置。操作面板3可以刚好接触该指示块4或距离该指示块4一点距离(见图3和4)。这样,当按压操作面板3时,操作面板3将驱动指示块4及相应的开关按钮21在通孔11内运动以操作开关模组2。
图2中示出了根据本公开的一个实施方式的指示块4。如图2所示,该指示块4具有两个端面和位于两个端面之间的侧面。在其中一个端面上开有盲孔41,盲孔41的形状可以与开关按钮21的形状匹配,例如,图2中的盲孔41为圆形,以与图1中的圆形开关按钮21匹配,但并非必须如此。但是,应当保证盲孔41的尺寸要稍大于开关按钮21的尺寸。在盲孔41的侧壁上具有若干沿着盲孔41的轴向延伸的突起42。如图3-4所示,当将指示块4滑动套设在开关按钮21上时,开关按钮21插入所述盲孔41中,与所述突起42接合并稍微挤压突起42以实现过盈配合。该过盈配合防止指示块4从开关按钮21脱落。由于仅有几处细的突起42与开关按钮21过盈配合,而开关按钮21侧面的大部分都不与指示块4接触,因此,在安装和拆卸指示块4时不会遇到大的阻力,因而便于安装和拆卸指示块4。当然,在保证开关按钮21和指示块4中的盲孔41都具有较高的尺寸精度的情况下,也可以不设置突起42,而直接将指示块4的盲孔41套在开关按钮21上以实现过盈配合,但此时盲孔41的尺寸应正好等于或稍微小于开 关按钮21的尺寸。
在一个实施方式中,可以在指示块4上设有操作部,以便于在要更换或拆卸指示块4时,指示块4易于被手指或工具操作而与开关按钮21分离。例如,在图2中,在指示块4的侧面设有凹槽43作为操作部。人的手指或例如改锥的工具可以轻易地抠入该凹槽43中以将指示块4与开关按钮21剥离。
在一个实施方式中,指示块4的端面形状可以被配置为使得所述指示块4适于在安装面板1上的所述通孔11内沿所述通孔11的轴向移动,而不适于在所述通孔11内旋转,以保证指示块能被操作面板3驱动而操作开关按钮21的同时而不会发生旋转而使得指示块4上的标记的方位发生变化。为此,指示块4的端面形状应小于通孔11的尺寸,并可以具有与通孔11匹配的形状,但应避免采用圆形,以防止旋转。如图1-2所示,例如当通孔11为方形时,指示块4的端面也可以为方形,这样,方形的指示块4无法在方形的通孔11中旋转。
在指示块4未开设盲孔41的端面上可以印制各种标记44以表示与该指示块4对应的开关模组2的功能,例如表示该开关模组2用于控制哪个灯具或电源插座。该标记44可以为任意图案、字符或其组合。该标记44可以作为透光部分形成在不透光的指示块4端面上,或者该标记44可以作为不透光部分形成在透光的指示块4端面上。在开关按钮21中还设置发光装置。通过发光装置的光照射指示块4,从指示块4端面上的透光部分中透出的光投影到正对指示块4的操作面板3上,从而在操作面板3上投影出标记的图案。取决于在指示块4上形成标记的方式,投影出的标记的图案可能是标记部分明亮而标记周围黑暗(即阳文),或者是标记部分黑暗而标记周围明亮(即阴文)。操作面板3选取具有部分透光能力的较薄材质,例如薄塑料。通常情况下该操作面板3不透光。但是在距离操作面板3非常近的开关按钮21中的发光装置的光通过指示块4中的透光部分投射到操作面板3上时,该投射的光线足以透过该操作面板3,从而从操作面板3的背向指示块4的一侧看,可以看见投射在操作面板3上的光所形 成的阳文或阴文形式的标记。这样,使用者可以清楚地在该操作面板3上的不同位置看到相应标记,并了解按压该操作面板3的各标记所在位置能够操作相应的开关模组2以实现该标记所表示的功能。
对于阳文标记,可以提供整体不透光的指示块4,而在其端面上雕刻镂空的标记图案,使标记部分透光;也可以提供透光的指示块4端面,然后在其上喷涂或用纸覆盖除标记外的其他区域而仅露出标记部分。而对于阴文标记,可以直接在透光的指示块4端面上印制不透光的标记图案。
该发光装置可以保持常亮状态以使使用者任何时候都可以看到操作面板3上的标记,这在使用指示块4上的标记表示操作面板所控制的是哪个电气设备时是有利的。然而,在开关装置仅具有一个开关模组2,并且使用该标记表示已知的电气设备的开关状态时,该发光装置可以仅在开关模组2闭合或关断的情况下才点亮,由此,该标记在操作面板3上的点亮或熄灭可以表示相应的电气设备的状态。
在需要标记保持常亮的情况下,可以不通过单独的发光装置提供光照。而是,指示块4上可以具有自发光的标记,例如荧光标记。并且所述自发光的标记的光能够透过所述操作面板3而可见。由于自发光相对较弱,这在通常为较昏暗的环境中可能是更有利的。
由于指示块4藏在操作面板3后方而对使用者不可见,操作面板3表面显得非常整洁美观。当标记被点亮时,发光的标记图案清晰地出现在操作面板上,使得该开关装置显得非常高档。
在另一个实施方式中,该指示块4还可以设置在开关模组2与操作面板3之间的其他位置上。例如,指示块4可以可拆卸安装在操作面板3的面向开关模组2的一侧上。例如,通过在操作面板3的面向所述开关模组2的一侧上设置凸块或容纳槽,指示块4可以可拆卸地配合到该凸块上或该容纳槽中。在使用一个操作面板3控制多个开关模组2的开关装置中,当需要通过指示块4上的标记指示某个开关模组2时,仍需要将该指示块4放置在操作面板3上的与该开关模组的位置对应的位置,以提供准确的指示。但是该指示块4可以与开关按 钮21对准或不对准,即操作面板可以通过指示块4驱动开关按钮21或不通过指示块4直接驱动开关按钮21。在指示块4与开关按钮21不对准的情况下,可能需要将发光装置设置在操作面板3上与指示块4对准的位置以照亮指示块。
虽然以上基于按钮开关模块描述了根据本公开的开关装置,但是应当理解,本公开的开关装置也适用于其他类型的开关模块。例如,对于翘板开关模组,将指示块4设置在操作面板3上的面向开关模组的一侧上是有利的,因为翘板开关模组不具有开关按钮,因而不便于在翘板开关模组上设置指示块4。
另外,虽然以上描述的实施方式中仅提供一个操作面板3,应当理解,可以为开关装置提供一个以上的操作面板3,并且每个操作面板3用于控制一个或多个开关模组。在提供多个操作面板3的情况下,可以为每个操作面板3设置一个或多个该指示块4,以指示该操作面板3的一个或多个键位所对应的功能或状态。
以上所述的各实施方式的开关装置中的操作面板3优选是可以方便地拆卸的。当改变了开关装置所控制的电气设备后需要更换指示标记时,先将操作面板3拆下,然后将指示块4从开关按钮21或操作面板3上取下,然后换上新的具有与所控制的电气设备对应的标记的指示块4,再将操作面板3装上。这样,再点亮标记时,即在操作面板上显示新的标记。如果指示块4上的标记由贴在指示块4上的贴纸形成,也可以不拆卸和替换指示块4,而仅撕去指示块4上原有的贴纸,而重新粘上具有新标记的贴纸即可。由此,可以方便地低成本地更换用于开关装置的标记,而不用更换新的操作面板,也不会损坏或弄脏原有操作面板的外观。
应当理解,本实用新型的开关装置适于安装在墙壁、面板等平面上的槽中,以用于家用、商业或工业场合中。该开关装置中的各个开关模组可以用于分别控制照明电路、电源、电气设备等。
应当留意的是,上述的实施例的给出用于描述本实用新型的原理,而不是限制其范围;并且应当理解的是,可以在不脱离本实用新 型的精神和范围的情况下采取修改和变化,对此本领域技术人员将很容易理解。这些修改和变化被认为是在本实用新型和所附权利要求的范围之内。本实用新型的保护范围由所附权利要求所限定。另外,在权利要求中的任何附图标记不应该被解释为是对权利要求的限制。动词“包括”及其变体的使用并不排除存在权利要求所述以外的元件或步骤。元件或步骤前的不定冠词“一”或“一个”不排除存在多个这样的元件或步骤。
