Abstract
A switch assembly includes a shell, and a push button including a fixing member, a pushing member, an elastic member and an electrical-conductive member. A shell includes an upper surface and a cavity extending from the upper surface to a lower surface opposite to the upper surface. The fixing member is received in the cavity of the shell. The pushing member is slidably received in the fixing member and exposed out of the cavity. The elastic member is positioned between the pushing member and the shell. The electrical-conductive member is mounted on an end of the pushing member.
Claims20
A switch assembly comprising:
- a shell comprising an upper surface and a cavity extending from the upper surface to a lower surface opposite to the upper surface, the cavity defining a circumference side comprising a round step formed thereon;
- and
- a push button positioned through the cavity of the shell and comprising:
- a fixing member received in the cavity and supported on the step of the shell;
- a pushing member slidably received in the fixing member and exposed out of the cavity;
- an elastic member positioned between the pushing member and the shell;
- and
- an electrical-conductive member mounted on an end of the pushing member.
An electrical device comprising:
- a shell comprising an upper surface and a cavity extending from the upper surface to a lower surface opposite to the upper surface, the cavity defining a circumference side comprising a round step formed thereon;
- a circuit board engaged with the shell and comprising at least one pair of disconnected electronic contacts formed thereon corresponding to the cavity;
- and
- a push button positioned through the cavity of the shell and comprising:
- a fixing timber received in the cavity and supported on the step of the shell;
- a pushing member slidably received in the fixing member and extending out from the cavity to align with the contacts of the circuit board;
- an elastic member positioned between the pushing member and the shell;
- and
- an electrical-conductive member mounted on an end of the pushing member and configured for electrically connecting the at least one pair of contacts of the circuit board when the pushing member of the push button is pressed.
