Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to an emergency switch for a home controller that is provided with an elastic push button to operate the switch.

(Prior Art) As shown in Fig. 3, the emergency switch of a commonly used home controller has an emergency switch main body (not shown) fixedly attached to a switch fixing plate.
a panel 2 in which an opening 1 is formed at a position facing the panel;
It is comprised of a push button 3 attached to this opening 1, an acrylic cover 4 and an acrylic cover support 5 provided on the front side of the push button 3,
The acrylic cover support 5 has a structure in which a pressing piece 6 is integrally connected via a connecting portion 7 so as to operate when the pressing force against the push button 3 exceeds a certain reference value.

(Problem that the invention aims to solve) However, the above type of emergency switch for home controllers has the disadvantage that the shape of the acrylic cover support is complicated, which increases costs and increases the number of parts, making parts management troublesome. There is.

This idea was made in view of the above points,
To provide an emergency switch for a home controller which has a simple structure and can be easily assembled.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The emergency switch of the home controller of the present invention has an emergency switch main body provided on a switch fixing plate, and a push button mounted on a panel so as to face the emergency switch main body. In the emergency switch of a controller, the center part of the upper surface of the pushbutton has an elastic structure, and there are support legs at both ends of the pushbutton that contact and support the top surface of the panel, and a support leg that is movable in the pushing direction of the pushbutton inside the support legs. A movable leg is provided, a locking portion is provided at the tip of the movable leg to engage with the periphery of an opening provided in the panel through which the movable leg is passed, and a boss is provided on the back side of the push button at a portion inside the movable leg, An emergency switch contact piece is provided opposite this boss.

(Function) In the emergency switch of the home controller of the present invention, the center part of the upper surface of the push button has an elastic structure, so when the push button is pressed, the center part of the push button bends using both ends as supporting points. , the boss provided on the push button hits the contact piece, and while the push button is pressed against the elastic force of the push button, the emergency switch body performs the on operation, and when the push button is released, the push button is turned on. The boss provided on the push button returns upward due to the elastic force of the push button, and when the boss separates from the contact piece, the emergency switch body is returned to the OFF operating position.

(Example of idea) An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 10 denotes a panel of the home controller, and a stepped portion 11 of this panel 10.
Two pairs of slits 12 and 13 are bored at a predetermined interval in a portion close to the slit. A push button 14 having a box-like overall shape is attached to the slits 12 and 13.

The push button 14 has support legs 22, 22 formed at both ends thereof to contact and support the upper surface of the panel, and a movable leg 15 movable in the pushing direction of the push button formed inside the support legs 22, 22, The upper surface 14a is formed thin, and the center portion is set to be flexible.
Hooks 16 facing away from each other are integrally formed at the lower ends of the movable legs 15. The distance between the hooks 16, 16 is set to be equal to or slightly larger than the distance between the slits 12, 13 provided in the panel 10, as shown in FIG.

On the other hand, an emergency switch main body 19 is provided at a portion of a switch fixing plate 18 that is attached to the panel 10 through screws 17 and corresponds to the push button 14. The upper surface 1 of the push button 14 is placed so as to leave a gap A with the contact piece 20 of the emergency switch main body 19.
A boss 21 is provided extending downward from the back surface of 4a. The above gap A is such that the push button 14 is connected to the panel 1.
0, the push button 14 is selected by the stroke of the upper surface 14a that moves using the support legs 22 at both ends as fulcrums.

Therefore, in order to attach the push button 14 to the panel 10 of the home controller, first the push button 14 is attached to the panel 10 of the home controller.
is placed above the panel 10 so that the movable leg 15 is located directly above the slits 12 and 13, and the hook 1 is
6 into the slits 12 and 13, and then push the push button 14 down.

Then, the movable leg 15 of the push button 14 moves to the hook 1.
6 move toward each other, and the hooks 16 pass through the slits 12 and 13.

When the hook 16 passes through the slits 12 and 13, the movable leg 15 returns to its original direction due to its elastic force, and as shown in FIG. Attaches to the outer edge. As a result, the pushbutton 14 is attached to the panel 10.

In this case, both ends of the pushbutton 14 are connected to the panel 10.
It will be supported in contact with the upper surface of.

Next, when the push button 14 is pressed, the center part of the push button 14 bends using both end parts as supporting points, and the boss 21
hits the contact piece 20, and the emergency switch main body 19 turns on.

While the push button 14 is pressed, the emergency switch main body 19 performs an on operation, but when the push button 14 is released, the elastic force of the push button 14 causes the boss 21 to return upward and separate from the contact piece 20. Then, the emergency switch main body 19 is returned to the OFF operating position.

Although not explained in the above embodiment, the elastic force of the push button can of course be adjusted by adjusting the thickness of the upper surface portion or by adding ribs.

(Effects of the invention) As described above, according to the invention, support legs are formed at both ends of the push button, movable legs are formed inside the support legs, and a movable leg is formed on the back side of the push button. A boss is provided at the top of the pushbutton, and the center part of the top surface of the pushbutton has an elastic structure, and the boss is pushed down only when a certain amount of pressing force is applied from above to the center of the top surface of the pushbutton, and the contact piece of the emergency switch Since the switch is turned on by touching the push button, this switch-on operation does not occur even if the push button is touched carelessly, improving reliability, and is rarely used normally, yet it is required to operate reliably in an emergency. It is extremely useful as a switch, and has the advantage of having a simple structure, fewer parts, and lower manufacturing costs.
