Description

开关用防倾芯部、开关及其安装方法 技术领域
本发明涉及开关领域，更具体地涉及开关用防倾芯部以及采用该开关用防倾芯部的开关及其安装方法。
背景技术
在现有技术中，用于控制灯具的开关通常采用钢琴键式开关和翘板式开关。为了增大各开关的按键的有效操作部位的尺寸，钢琴键式开关和翘板式开关采用大尺寸的按键。例如，授权公告号为CN2131189Y、名称为“大按键轻触式壁开关”的中国实用新型专利公开了一种具有大按键的翘板式开关，其增大了按键的面积。但是由于钢琴键式开关和翘板式开关的按键受到其自身结构的限制而使得有效操作部位仅限于按键的一侧，因而即使采用大尺寸的按键也不能显著地提高按键的有效操作部位的尺寸。
因而，为了更加有效地增大按键的有效操作部位的尺寸，可以采用平动开关。由于平动开关的按键采用相对于底座大致平动(整体接近/远离底座)的动作来实现开关控制，因此该平动开关的按键的有效操作部位不限于按键的一侧，从而相对于钢琴键式开关和翘板式开关能够有效地增大开关的按键的有效操作部位的尺寸。
但是在采用平动开关的情况下，由于该开关的按键的有效操作部位很大，导致当按压该按键的局部位置时容易导致按键相对于底座倾斜，从而导致操作不顺畅，进而使得操作性降低。为此，本领域技术人员采用了例如如下的技术方案：授权公告号为CN203690173U，名称为“一种按钮开关”的中国实用新型专利就公开了这样的一种开关，该开关的按键可以平动控制传动机构来改变开关的通断状态，使得操作更简单，顺畅。但是，上述公开的开关虽然在一定程度上能够防止平动开关的按键的倾斜，但是其防止按键倾斜的效果不够理想，结构过于复杂并且成本过高。
此外，在这些现有开关中，开关模块与输入输出模块通常采用线性配置的方式。这不仅必然增大了开关在一个方向上的尺寸，而且由于国家标准的相关规定，采用了这种配置方式的开关模块和输入输出模块还妨碍了这些开关(尤其是多位开关)中固定孔的配置。
并且，针对平动开关，尚未就如何在黑暗中引导用户进行有效的按压操作提出解决方案。

具体实施方式
以下参照说明书附图具体说明本发明的技术方案。在附图中，标记“A”表示沿着开关用防倾芯部的连结部的中心轴线的方向，标记“R”表示开关用防倾芯部的连结部的径向。根据本发明的开关可以分为一位开关(单控开关，典型地具有一个按键)和多位开关(多控开关，典型地具有多个按键)，以下将首先采用一位开关作为示例来说明根据本发明的开关的技术方案。
(开关的概略结构)
如图1和图2所示，在本实施方式中，根据本发明的一位开关包括底座1、操作部2(平板式按键)、多个开关用防倾芯部3(以下简称防倾芯部3，在本实施方式中包括四个防倾芯部3)、开关模块4以及输入输出模块5(图1和图2 中未示出，其与开关模块4形成为一体)。
底座1用于与例如墙壁等竖直面固定安装。在本实施方式中，该底座1的形状为大致盒状，该盒状的开口部面向操作部2并且底座1与操作部2限定了安装空间。
操作部2可拆装地设置于底座1。当操作者按压/松开操作部2的情况下，操作部2能够以相对于底座1大致平动(整体接近/远离底座1)的方式移动。需要说明的是，本发明的操作部具有全方位操作特性，即无论操作者按压操作部2的任意部位，操作部2都能够对开关模块4加压而实现开关模块4的动作，该动作进一步通过输入输出模块5转换为电信号，从而实现开关的开关操作。
多个防倾芯部3收纳于该安装空间内且靠近底座1和操作部2的边缘设置，多个防倾芯部3用于避免操作部2在相对于底座1移动(平动)的过程中相对于底座1发生倾斜。
开关模块4设置于底座1的大致中央位置处。为了使得用户进行小幅按压即可切换开关状态，优选开关模块4与操作部2抵接，但是本领域技术人员显然可知，这并非必须的，开关模块4也可以与操作部2间隔开。由于开关模块的结构是本领域中已知的，在此省略对其的图示和详细描述。并且，本领域技术人员显然可知，本申请中的开关模块可以采用已知的任意结构，本发明对此不作限制。
在使用时，通过用户按压操作部2，操作部2克服开关模块4中的弹簧的弹簧力从而以整体接近底座1的方式移动，并且同时推动开关模块4。如本领域技术人员已知的，当操作部2推动开关模块4时，开关模块4中的压件向下运动，并压动拨杆转动从而使得活动触片摆动，与当前接触的触点分离，并与另一侧的接点接触，从而实现开关在开启从电源至负载的电力供应、即接通状态和切换从电源至负载的电力供应、即断开状态之间的切换。当用户松开操作部2时，开关模块4中的弹簧的弹簧力使操作部2以整体远离底座1的方式移动，并最终返回初始位置(未按压之前的位置)。
输入输出模块5实现与例如灯具等的电器的电连接，从而实现将开关模块4的开关信号转化为控制电器开关的电信号。一般而言，输入输出模块5与灯具等电器采用电线彼此连接。
以下将参照说明书附图详细地说明组成根据本发明的一位开关的各个组件的具体结构。
(防倾芯部3)
如图3a所示，根据第一实施方式的防倾芯部3包括连结部31和设置于该连结部31的两个联动部32。该连结部31和两个联动部32均为直杆状。两个联动部32分别设置于连结部31的轴向A上的两端部，并且各联动部32均从连结部31向径向外侧延伸出，这样设置使得多个联动部32能够随着连结部31绕着其中心轴线转动而同时绕着连结部31的中心轴线转动。
在本实施方式中，连结部31和两个联动部32设置于同一平面内。两个联动部32在该平面内彼此平行地延伸，联动部32与连结部31之间的夹角大致为直角。两个联动部32分别从连结部31的轴向A上的两端部延伸出且两个联动部32的在其长度方向上的长度彼此相等，使得两个联动部的自由端位于大致相同的径向位置处。这样，防倾芯部3形成为大致U字形状。在本实施方式中，连结部31与两个联动部32的连接部位成圆弧形状。
如图3b所示，根据第二实施方式的防倾芯部3与根据第一实施方式的防倾芯部3的不同之处在于，在本实施方式中，两个联动部32并非直杆状，而是弯杆状；并且两个联动部32并非彼此平行。
如图3c所示，根据第三实施方式的防倾芯部3与根据第一实施方式的防倾芯部3的不同之处在于，在本实施方式中，两个联动部32并非直杆状，而是弯杆状；并且两个联动部32与连结部31并不在同一平面内。
如图3d所示，根据第四实施方式的防倾芯部3与根据第一实施方式的防倾芯部3的不同之处在于，在本实施方式中，连结部31并非单一直杆状而是采用彼此连接在一起且错开的分段直杆的形式。联动部32能够绕相同一转轴(在图3d中，既可以是以连结部31的中间部为转轴，也可以是以连结部31的 两端部为转轴)倾动(转动)。
如图3e所示，根据第五实施方式的防倾芯部3与根据第一实施方式的防倾芯部3的不同之处在于，在本实施方式中，该防倾芯部3具有三个联动部32，其中一个联动部32设置于连结部31的轴向A上的大致中央位置处。
如图3a至图3e可知，根据本发明的防倾芯部3的连结部31和联动部32可以根据需要采用多种结构，只要满足该防倾芯部3能够避免操作部2在相对于底座1移动(平动)的过程中产生倾斜即可。本质上，应当保证在沿连结部31的轴向A观察时，多个联动部32的至少有一部分相互间呈小于90°的夹角，进一步优选地使得多个联动部32的自由端在径向R上位于大致相同位置处。
根据本发明的第一实施方式的防倾芯部3具有大致U字形状，其结构简单且有利于大规模工业生产，因此该实施方式为本发明的防倾芯部3的最优选的实施方式。以下在对其它组件进行说明的过程中，如果没有特别指出，则防倾芯部3应该均是指如图3a所示的具有大致U字形形状的防倾芯部3。
接下来，将说明防倾芯部3的在根据本发明的开关中的配置方式。
在根据本发明的开关中，可以仅设置一个防倾芯部3，也可以设置多个防倾芯部3。如果操作部2具有多个操作部边缘，防倾芯部3的数量优选地等于操作部边缘的数量。如图2所示，在本实施方式中，在一位开关的单一的操作部2具有四个边缘的情况下，设置四个防倾芯部3。
优选地，在一个开关具有多个防倾芯部3的情况下，多个防倾芯部3中的至少两个防倾芯部3的连结部31的轴向A彼此交叉。更优选地，多个防倾芯部3中的每相邻的两个防倾芯部3的连结部31沿着彼此交叉的方向布置。优选地，在配置各防倾芯部3时，使各连结部31的轴向A分别与操作部2的各边缘的延伸方向大致相同。也就是说，在配置各防倾芯部3时，使一个连结部31与操作部2的一个边缘大致平行。如图2所示，在本实施方式中，相邻的两个防倾芯部3的连结部31成大致直角的方式进行配置。
优选地，连结部31的轴向A的长度小于或等于延伸方向与该连结部31的轴向A大致相同的操作部边缘的延伸方向上的长度。另外，开关的开关模块4 设置于底座1的大致中央部位，防倾芯部3优选地位于该开关模块4与操作部边缘之间。这样，保证了防倾芯部3的尺寸不会影响操作部2相对于底座1的移动，另外还使得防倾芯部3与操作部边缘足够靠近，从而使得多个防倾芯部3能够配合发挥更好的防倾斜效果。
(底座1)
如图4a和图4b所示，在本实施方式中，底座1包括彼此可拆装地安装的底座主体11和底板12。底座主体11用于固定操作部2，底座主体11与操作部2形成安装空间；底板12用于固定开关模块4和输入输出模块5，并且底板12从底座主体11的安装操作部2的相反侧安装于底座主体11。
如图4a所示，底座主体11包括大致平板状的底壁11b以及从底壁11b的四周边缘立设的侧壁11a，相邻的两个侧壁11a之间形成圆角。
在本实施方式中，底壁11b具有与侧壁11a相连的多个边缘，在两条相对的边缘处设置有贯通底壁11b的底座主体安装孔111，在该底座主体安装孔111中设置有卡接结构，该底座主体安装孔111用于与底板12的对应结构(下述的底板安装部121)进行配合安装，从而将底板12固定于底座主体11。在底壁11b的大致中心位置处设置有贯通底壁11b的底座主体中心通孔112，该底座主体中心通孔112供开关模块4穿过底壁11b以与底壁11b上方的操作部2抵接。另外，在底壁11b上还设置有与底板12的用于固定螺钉的结构对应的两个固定作业孔113，该两个固定作业孔113位于底座主体中心通孔112的两侧，以便于通过该固定作业孔113而使螺钉固定于底板12的对应结构(下述的固定孔123)中，从而将整个开关固定于墙壁等竖直面。
在本实施方式中，为了将操作部2可拆装地安装于该底座主体11，在各上述圆角部位的内侧位置处分别设置有一个卡接槽114，该卡接槽114用于与操作部2的对应结构(下述的第二卡接部22)匹配安装。该卡接槽114在垂直于底壁11b的方向上延伸一定距离，使得在操作部2能够在垂直于底壁11b的方向上接近/远离该底壁11b的情况下，卡接槽114还用作第二卡接部22的导向槽。
在本实施方式中，底座主体11具有用于固定防倾芯部3的连结部31的连结部固定部。防倾芯部3的连结部31以能够绕自身轴线转动的方式固定于底座1的连结部固定部，连结部固定部包括从底座主体11的底壁11b朝向操作部2突出的多个第一卡接突起115(连结部卡接部)，使得连结部31安装于连结部固定部的情况下连结部31相对于底座主体11不能相对移动。
进一步地，采用两个第一卡接突起115来固定一个防倾芯部3的连结部31。该两个卡接突起沿着底壁11b的一个边缘的延伸方向延伸一定长度且沿着该边缘的延伸方向排列对齐(在本实施方式中，操作部2的操作部边缘分别与底壁11b的对应的边缘平行，因此用于固定一个防倾芯部3的连结部31的两个卡接突起也同时沿着一个操作部边缘的延伸方向延伸和排列对齐)。
如图4c所示，第一卡接突起115包括从底座主体1朝向操作部2突出设置的两个卡合柱。在两个卡合柱之间形成朝向操作部2开口的连结部卡口1151和用于卡合连结部31的连结部卡合部1152。该连结部卡口1151的尺寸略小于连结部31用于与第一卡接突起115卡合的部位的尺寸(即略小于连结部31的径向R上的尺寸)，连结部卡合部1152则具有足够容纳连结部31的尺寸(优选地与连接部31的径向R上的尺寸相同)。另外，连结部卡口1151的口部还可以具有将连结部导入连结部卡接部的连结部导向部，即图中所示的两个卡合柱的在该口部处的弧形面。
在本实施方式中，底座主体11还包括用于防止防倾芯部3相对于底座主体11相对滑动的限位结构。具体地，该限位结构包括防止连结部31在轴向A上相对于底座主体11滑动的限位部和防止连结部31在与轴向A正交的方向上相对于底座主体11相对滑动的附加限位部。
进一步地，限位部包括设置于底座主体11的止挡突起116，止挡突起116从底座主体11朝向上方(操作部2)突出。当防倾芯部3优选地采用U字形的结构的情况下，在每个防倾芯部3的两个联动部32的轴向外侧(或者该两个联动部32的轴向内侧)设置两个止挡突起116。如图4c所示，在本实施方式中，止挡突起116具有大致立方体形状且与底座主体11形成为一体。另外， 由于操作部2具有下行限止位置(操作部2所能够移动到的最接近底座主体11的底壁11b的位置)，使得操作部2移动到该下行限止位置处以压抵开关模块4来实现开关操作，因此止挡突起116的朝向操作部2突出的顶端部位于下行限止位置的下方，不仅如此，上述第一卡接突起115的卡合柱的突出的顶端也应该位于下行限止位置的下方。另外，在本实施方式中，上述第一卡接突起115还用作附加限位部。
在本实施方式中，底座主体11还包括设置于底壁11b上的多个让位槽117，每个让位槽117均位于该底壁11b的与下述的第二卡接突起23对应的位置处。当将操作部2安装于底座主体11时，该第二卡接突起23伸入到让位槽117中，从而方便操作部2与底座1之间的安装。
在本实施方式中，底座主体11还包括设置于底壁11b上的底座主体安装标识118，该标识指示出了底座主体11的安装方向，防止装反。
如图4b所示，底板12具有大致板状结构，该底板12的两条相对的边缘处设置有多个底板安装部121，该底板安装部121用于与底座主体11的底座主体安装孔111对应。
在本实施方式中，在底板12的大致中心位置处，设置有底板中心通孔122，底板中心通孔122的位置与底座主体中心通孔112的位置大致对应。在底板中心通孔122的两个相对的边缘处设置有向远离底座主体11的方向延伸的凸起，在各凸起上设置有开关模块4固定孔124，用于固定开关模块4。
在本实施方式中，在底板中心通孔122的两侧，底板12还设置有两个固定孔123。可以通过在固定孔123中拧入螺钉而将底板12固定于例如墙壁等的竖直面上。
另外，在本实施方式中，与底座主体安装标识118类似地，底板12还设置有底板安装标识125，从而防止底板12装反。
(操作部2)
如图5a和图5b所示，在本实施方式中，操作部2具有作为板式按键的操作部主体21，该操作部主体21具有与底座主体11对应的形状。操作部2(操 作部主体21)具有用于操作者进行按压操作的操作面，该操作面为大致矩形并包括四个操作部边缘，四个操作部边缘中彼此相连的两个操作部边缘大致相互正交。
在本实施方式中，在该操作部主体21的四个边缘彼此相交的四个角部处设置有向底座主体11延伸出的卡接部22，该卡接部22用于与底座主体11的卡接槽114对应安装，从而将操作部2固定于底座主体11(底座1)。
如图5b所示，在操作部2上设置有用于固定防倾芯部3的联动部32的联动部固定部，联动部32以能够在连结部31的转动方向上倾动(转动)的方式固定于该联动部固定部。
进一步地，在与底座主体11的底壁11b垂直的方向上，联动部固定部以在联动部32的上方和下方夹持的方式对联动部32进行固定。联动部固定部的与联动部32接触的部分为圆弧状。
联动部32包括从操作部2朝向底座1(底座主体11)突出的多个第二卡接突起23(联动部卡接部)，第二卡接突起23用于以在联动部32的上方和下方夹持的方式对联动部32进行固定。第二卡接突起23与联动部32一一对应。操作部2具有四个操作部边缘，用于固定设置于一个连结部31的两个联动部32的两个第二卡接突起23沿着一个操作部边缘的延伸方向排列。
如图5c所示，用于固定设置于一个连结部31的两个联动部32第二卡接突起23具有彼此相向/彼此相反的联动部卡口231以及在联动部卡口231下方的用于使联动部32导入联动部卡口231的导向部。该导向部可以为朝向联动部卡口231倾斜的倾斜面。
另外，在操作部2的大致中央位置处设置有与开关模块4对应的多个(在本实施方式中为四个)抵接凸起24，该抵接凸起24在操作部2相对于底座1移动(平动)的过程中与开关模块4抵接。
(开关模块4和输入输出模块5)
根据本发明的开关模块4和输入输出模块5中的具体组成部件与现有技术中采用的开关模块和输入输出模块的具体组成部件相同，因此在这里对它 们的具体组成部件就不进行赘述了。以下主要说明根据本发明的开关模块4和输入输出模块5之间的连接结构。
在一位开关中，由于开关整体的配置空间足够，因此开关模块4与输入输出模块5采用与现有技术相同的连接结构进行配置，即开关模块4与输入输出模块5彼此之间直线状地连接。
在如图6a至图6c的多位开关中(图6a中示出了二位开关，图6b中示出了三位开关，图6c中示出了四位开关)，开关模块4和输入输出模块5整体固定于底座1(底板12)，输入输出模块5与开关模块4对应连接。开关模块4和输入输出模块5的数量分别与操作部2的数量相等，一组开关模块4和输入输出模块5与一个操作部2对应，并且开关模块4的固定位置与对应的操作部2的中央位置对应。
在图6a中，可以采用与一位开关的开关模块4和输入输出模块5具有相同结构的两组开关模块4和输入输出模块5。也可以采用具有图7中结构的开关模块4和输入输出模块5，其中开关模块4与输入输出模块5彼此之间成角度地进行配置，开关模块4与输入输出模块5之间的角度为大致直角。
在图7中，与两个操作部2对应的两个输入输出模块5并列配置，使得该两个输入输出模块5和与其对应的两个开关模块4整体形成大致U字形。这样，能够缩短开关模块4和输入输出模块5的整体长度。
如图6b所示，三位开关具有三个操作部2，三个操作部2包括第一操作部2a、第二操作部2b和第三操作部2c，第二操作部2b和第三操作部2c的操作尺寸之和与第一操作部2a的操作尺寸大致相等。
在开关以竖直的状态固定的情况下，第一操作部2a与第二操作部2b和第三操作部2c位于水平方向的两侧，并且与第二操作部2b和第三操作部2c对应的开关模块4和输入输出模块5形成为U字形。在底座1的底板12上设置有用于固定底座1的固定孔123，固定孔123设置于U字形的凹口内的位置。在开关以竖直的状态固定的情况下，U字形的凹口的开口方向朝向水平方向。
如图6c所示，四位开关具有四个操作部2，四个操作部包括操作尺寸彼 此相等的第一操作部2a、第二操作部2b、第三操作部2c和第四操作部2d。
在开关以竖直的状态固定的情况下，第一操作部2a和第二操作部2b与第三操作部2c和第四操作部2d位于水平方向的两侧，与第一操作部2a和第二操作部2b对应的开关模块4和输入输出模块5形成为第一U字形，与第三操作部2c和第四操作部2d对应的开关模块4和输入输出模块5形成为第二U字形。第一U字形与第二U字形的凹口的开口方向彼此相对或彼此相反。
在开关以竖直的状态固定的情况下，第一U字形与第二U字形在竖直方向上的位置彼此相同。当然，在特定的情况下，该第一U字形与第二U字形在竖直方向上的位置可以彼此错开。
(发光构件)
以下将基于图8来详细说明本发明的用于在黑暗中指示开关的位置的部件。如图8所示，在开关模块4的与操作部2相对的面64上形成有相对于该面向操作部2突出的两个平行延伸的、条状的凸起部63，由凸起部63形成3个容纳部66a、66b、66c。在图8中，LED(发光二极管)模块61设置于中间的容纳部66b。但是，显然，LED模块61也可以设置于左侧的容纳部66a或右侧的容纳部66c。该LED模块61通过柔性线路板(FPC)62与开关模块4中的交流电源相连接。如本领域技术人员已知的，从交流电源经由交流直流转换电路和电源驱动电路，向LED模块61供电，从而使LED模块61发光。在黑暗中，用户被诱使按压LED模块61所在的发光的部分，从而能够将按压力直接施加于开关模块4，由此确保有效的按压操作。
面64和LED模块61均呈大致矩形状。两个凸起部63设置于面64的沿着面64的第一边的方向上的中央部，并且与面64的垂直于第一边的第二边平行地横切整个面64。该凸起部63还用作与操作部2抵接的抵接部。两个凸起部63相互平行，并且在彼此相对的一侧的侧面在对应位置各自设置有四个肋65，其中两个肋65位于各凸起部63的端部。该肋65还用作凸起部63的加强肋，以避免该凸起部在用户按压时发生变形。
各个凸起部63上的彼此相对的肋65的顶端之间的距离相等，小于LED模 块64在与柔性线路板62相连接的第一边的边长，且大于或等于柔性线路板62的宽度。同一凸起部63上的肋65之间的间隔相等，大于或等于LED模块61的垂直于第一边的第二边的边长。各个凸起部63在垂直于面64的方向上的高度相同，大于LED模块64在垂直于面64的方向上的厚度。
如图8所示，通过如上所述的凸起部63和肋65形成容纳部66a、66b、66c。用户可以手动将LED模块61设置于这3个容纳部中的任一个，也可以手动将LED模块61从这3个容纳部中的任一个取出。当将LED模块61设置于容纳部66a或66b时，柔性线路板62延伸穿过右侧的相对的肋65之间的间隔。
通过在开关模块4上形成多个能够保持LED模块61的容纳部，可以提高开关模块的通用性，使得不论在一位开关、还是多位开关中，都可以利用上述开关模块4来将LED模块61设置于恰当的位置。例如，当如图1和2所示，开关为一位开关时，优选将LED模块61设置于中央的容纳部，从而诱使用户按压开关模块的中心部，确保能够准确地进行开关的通断状态的切换。而当如图6a所示，开关为两位开关时，优选将左侧的开关模块上的LED模块设置于左侧的容纳部，将右侧的开关模块上的LED模块设置于右侧的容纳部，从而使两个LED模块能够隔开一定的距离，用户即使在黑暗中也能准确定位并操作期望的开关。
虽然以上例示了图8所示的结构，但是如本领域技术人员可以理解的，本发明并不限于如上结构。首先，LED模块不限于配置在面64的中心处，也可以位于面64的其他位置，只要位于面64上即可。LED模块可以通过其他方式配置于面64，例如可以利用粘接等的固定配置方式，也可以利用除以上例示的方式以外的其他活动配置方式。
对于容纳部的结构，本发明不作限制，可以以任意方式形成，只要能够将LED模块设置于该容纳部并从该容纳部取出即可。例如，可以在开关模块3上形成凹部，由该凹部形成容纳部。对于容纳部的数量，虽然以上例示为3个，但是本领域技术人员显然可知，该数量不受限制，可以为一个、两个或者四个以上。对于容纳部的位置，本发明不作限制，虽然以上例示为并排设 置，但是本领域技术人员显然可知，容纳部可以集中或者分散地位于面64上的任意位置。
此外，凸起部63和肋65的形状、数量和尺寸也不受限制，只要能够形成至少一个能够保持LED模块的容纳部即可。例如，凸起部63可以设置3个，各个凸起部上可以设置3个肋，从而形成上下左右总共4个容纳部，该结构在用于图6b、6c所示的三位、四位开关时尤其有利。
例如，针对如图6b所示的三位开关，为了使用户能够明确区分各个开关模块，优选通过将与操作部2a相对的发光构件配置于相对于中央部靠远离操作部2b、2c的一侧的位置，将与操作部2b相对的发光构件配置于相对于中央部靠远离操作部2a、2c的一侧的位置，将与操作部2c相对的发光构件配置于相对于中央部靠远离操作部2a、2b的一侧的位置。
针对如图6c所示的四位开关，为了使用户能够明确区分各个开关模块，优选通过将各个开关模块的发光构件配置于该开关模块的相对于中央部靠远离邻接的开关模块的一侧的位置，来使开关模块上的发光构件隔开一定距离。
由于在使用时，LED模块61发出的光经由操作部2射出。为了提高用户看到的亮度，优选将操作部2的与LED模块相对的部分设为由透光材料形成，或者将操作部2的与LED模块相对的部分的厚度设置为比操作部2的其他部分的厚度小，或者在操作部2的与LED模块相对的部分设置孔，从而减轻操作部2对LED模块31发出的光的衰减作用。
LED模块61被设置为在开关处于接通状态和断开状态时发出不同的光。可以使亮度不同，也可以使颜色不同。优选地，LED模块61被设置为在开关处于断开状态时点亮，在开关处于接通状态时熄灭。可以通过本领域已知的各种方式来实现该功能，因此在此省略详细描述。更优选地，开关设置有供用户在开关处于断开状态时点亮LED模块和始终断开LED模块61的供电之间切换的构件，以便于在用户认为无需使用LED模块时断开LED模块来进一步节省电力。
在以上实施例中虽然例示了LED模块，但是本发明并不仅限于此，只要在开关模块的与操作部相对的面设置有发光构件即可。还可以采用氖灯等其他光源作为发光构件。此外，还可以通过由发磷光材料来形成面64的一部分或者形成凸起部63，来构成本发明的发光构件。
(开关的安装方法概述)
以上说明了根据本发明的开关的结构以及各组件的构造，以下简单说明该开关的安装方法。
在安装根据本发明的开关时，预先将开关模块4和输入输出模块5安装于底座1，随后采用如下步骤进行安装：
a.将底座1置于安装面上，该安装面可以是水平的或竖直的；
b.将防倾芯部3的连结部31按压入底座1上的连结部固定部；
c.转动连结部31使联动部32位于与操作部2的联动部固定部对应的位置处；以及
d.朝向底座1按压操作部2，使得联动部32安装于联动部固定部，与此同时，底座1与操作部2卡接在一起。
采用如上安装方法使得开关安装简单，便于操作。
虽然在以上的具体实施方式中对本发明的技术方案进行了详细地阐述，但是仍然需要说明的是：
1.在本发明中说明的连结部31和联动部32所具有的“杆状”包括直杆状和弯杆状。
2.在上述的具体实施方式中，采用了将连结部固定部设置于底座1而将联动部固定部设置于操作部2的结构，但是本发明不限于此。可以将连结部固定部设置于操作部2，而联动部固定部设置于底座。
另外，优选地，可以使连结部固定部的至少一部分位于连结部31与联动部32的连接部位处。这样，连结部固定部也可以起到对连结部31的轴向A的位置进行限定作用。也就是说，在根据本发明的其它实施方式中，连结部固定部还可以用作该限位部。具体地，连结部固定部包括从底座1朝向操作部2 突出的多个卡接突起，其中至少两个卡接突起设置于联动部32与连结部31的连接部位处。
3.根据本发明的操作部具有全方位操作特征。具体地，在结构方面，操作部2具有用于使用者操作的操作面，在沿着与操作面正交的方向观察时，底座1被操作部2覆盖的面积大于或等于底座1的总面积的90％；在沿着与操作面正交的方向观察时，底座1的未由操作部2覆盖的底座1边缘的最大宽度小于或等于3mm。也就是说，操作部2具有用于使用者操作的操作面，在沿着与操作面正交的方向观察时，底座暴露的面积与操作部的面积的比值小于或等于1/9。在沿着与操作面正交的方向观察时，底座的暴露的部分的宽度小于或等于3mm。这样，能够保证操作部2的操作面积足够大，从而更易于使用者进行操作。
4.在根据本发明的其它实施方式中，为了实现在连结部31的轴向A上对防倾芯部3的限位作用，还可以采用在每个防倾芯部3的连结部31的两轴向端部的轴向外侧的位置处设置两个止挡突起116的构造。
5.在上述具体实施方式中，虽然没有对多位开关的具体结构进行详细地说明，但是本领域技术人员能够根据上述对一位开关的具体结构合理地得到多位开关的相关具体结构。
通过采用上述技术方案，本发明提供了一种能够避免开关的按键在操作的过程中产生倾斜且操作顺畅的开关。
本发明的保护范围不限于上述具体实施方式中说明的具体实施例，而是只要满足本发明的权利要求的技术特征的组合就落入了本发明的保护范围内。
