Waterproof switch assembly

A waterproof switch assembly, comprising:

• a rigid casing with a first opening;
• a compressible elastomeric body attached to said rigid casing around the first opening, said compressible elastomeric body attached to a push button, and defining a hermetically sealed closed compartment within said rigid casing;
• a printed circuit board housed inside the closed compartment and bearing a protruding electric switch, said protruding electric switch activated by the push button and displaced in an axial direction perpendicular to the printed circuit board;
• a protective frame, housed inside the closed compartment, said protective frame comprising several connection legs and configured to be attached to the printed circuit board, surrounding a perimeter of the protruding switch, through said several connection legs,
• wherein the compressible elastomeric body includes one or more protruding elements that ensure that any load provided by the elastomeric body or by the push button is transmitted to the protective frame, which further transmits the load to the printed circuit board through the connection legs, protecting the protruding electric switch.
