Abstract
A switch includes a housing, a sliding member, and at least one connecting button. The housing includes at least one conductive member. The sliding member is slidably received in the housing. The sliding member includes at least one connecting member and at least one bevel surface. The connecting button is connected to the bevel surface. The connecting button is operable to be pressed to move along a pressing direction, and push the bevel surface such that the sliding member slides along a sliding direction substantially perpendicular to the pressing direction of the connecting button. The connecting member is electrically connected to the conductive member when the sliding member slides to a first position.
Claims14
A switch, comprising:
- a housing comprising at least one conductive member, each of the at least one conductive member comprising a pair of conductive columns separated from each other;
- a sliding member slidably received in the housing, the sliding member comprising at least one connecting member and at least one bevel surface;
- and
- at least one connecting button connected to the at least one bevel surface, the at least one connecting button being operable to be pressed to move along a pressing direction, and push the at least one bevel surface such that the sliding member slides along a sliding direction substantially perpendicular to the pressing direction of the at least one connecting button, the at least one connecting member each being operable to electrically interconnect the pair of conductive columns of a corresponding one of the at least one conductive member when the sliding member slides to a first position.
A switch, comprising:
- a housing comprising at least one conductive member;
- a sliding member slidably received in the housing, the sliding member comprising at least one connecting member and at least one bevel surface, the sliding member defining at least one fixing through hole and a rectangular positioning slot communicating with the at least one fixing through hole;
- at least one connecting button connected to the at least one bevel surface, the at least one connecting button being operable to press the at least one bevel surface such that the sliding member slides substantially perpendicular to a pressing direction of the at least one connecting button and the at least one connecting member is electrically connected to the at least one conductive member;
- a positioning button comprising a connecting portion and a positioning portion connected to the connecting portion, the positioning portion operable to be inserted into the at least one fixing through hole to fix the sliding member at a first position, where the at least one connecting member is held to contact the at least one conductive member, and the positioning portion is out of the at least one fixing through hole and the connecting portion is operable to be received in the positioning slot to allow the sliding member to slide to a second position, where the at least one connecting member disengages from the at least one conductive member;
- and
- a positioning spring connected to the sliding member, the positioning spring being operable to return the sliding member to the second position.
