  • Patent number: 10566149
    Abstract: A locking/unlocking structure of switch device includes a main body and an operation button. The main body is formed with a first stop section and a second stop section. The main body defines a chamber, in which a reaction drum and a wire connection module are assembled. A first elastic unit is disposed between the reaction drum and the main body for making the reaction drum positioned in an initial assembling position, (where the wire connection module is in a closed-circuit state). The reaction drum is assembled with a restriction unit and a second elastic unit. When the reaction drum moves in response to the motion of the operation button, the second elastic unit will force the restriction unit to move from the first stop section to the second stop section so as to control the wire connection module into an open-circuit state.

  • Publication number: 20190386409
    Abstract: A modularized structure of switch wire connection device includes an assembling support and a wire connection module. The assembling support has a first side and a second side. The first and/or the second sides are formed with assembling sections for assembling with the wire connection module. The wire connection module includes a first wire connection module and/or a second wire connection module each having a case. The case defines a chamber for receiving and enclosing electrical contact components including conductive members. The case is formed with a mounting section for connecting with the assembling section of the assembling support. Accordingly, the wire connection module is detachably mounted on the assembling support as an integrated form. The modularized structure enables an operator to easily assemble/disassemble the components and change the switch specification between normally open mode and normally closed mode and enhance insulation effect to avoid electric arc.

  • Patent number: 10446945
    Abstract: A metal leaf spring structure of electrical connection terminal includes a main body. The main body has a base section defined with a first end and a second end. The first end is connected with a first section and a locating section. The second end is connected with a bight section and a reciprocally movable second section. The locating section has a head section and a tail section. The locating section is positioned in the reciprocally moving path of the second section to setup a moving endpoint of the second section. The metal leaf spring structure of electrical connection terminal improves the shortcomings of the conventional metal leaf spring that the conductive wire cannot be plugged into the terminal by a precise angle so that the metal leaf spring is over-bent to affect the pressing and securing effect.

  • Publication number: 20190288408
    Abstract: A conductive component structure of electrical wire connection device is more securely assembled with the conductive wire to enhance the electro-conduction performance. The conductive component includes a main body in the form of a plate body, a restriction body connected on the main body and an aid unit (or elastic unit) assembled with the restriction body. The restriction body has a base section, a first arm and a second arm connected with the base section and free sections connected with the first and second arms. The aid unit (or elastic unit) provides greater elastic holding action force for the restriction body. When the conductive wire is plugged into the case into contact with the conductive component, the rear end of the conductive wire is at least securely pressed between the first and second arms of the restriction body without deflecting or swinging due to external force.

  • Patent number: 10367276
    Abstract: A conductive component structure of wire connection terminal is manufactured at lower cost and more securely assembled with the conductive wire. The conductive component includes a main body in the form of a plate body and a restriction body connected on the main body. The restriction body defines a mouth section and has an oblique wall connected with the mouth section. When the conductive wire is plugged into the case into contact with the conductive component, the restriction body guides the conductive wire and the rear end of the conductive wire is restricted and secured by the oblique wall. The conductive component improves the shortcomings of the conventional structure that the conductive wire is apt to deflect or swing due to external force to lead to unstable contact and insecurity and affect the electro-conductive efficiency.

  • Patent number: 10361494
    Abstract: A wire connection terminal structure includes a terminal main body and a stopper member. One end of the terminal main body is formed with a connection section. Two support legs extend from the connection section for securely connecting with a preset circuit board. The connection section defines a socket. An elastic abutment plate obliquely extends from the connection section between the two support legs. A locating section is disposed at one end of each support leg. The stopper member is securely connected to the support legs via the locating sections. A stop face is formed on one side of one end of the stopper member proximal to the connection section and positioned in the moving path of the elastic abutment plate when elastically deformed. After the elastic abutment plate is forced, the deformation amount of the elastic abutment plate is restricted by the stop face.

  • Patent number: 10333232
    Abstract: A wire connection terminal device includes a main body and a pressing/moving unit assembled with the main body. The pressing/moving unit has a shafted section, a cam section connected with the shafted section and a force application section formed on the cam section and a press section formed on the cam section. The cam section can freely rotate or swing within a chamber defined by the main body. A metal leaf spring is disposed in the chamber of the main body for pressing and electrically connecting with a conductive wire. The metal leaf spring is responsive to the motion of the pressing/moving unit to release the conductive wire. The wire connection terminal device improves the shortcomings of the conventional structure that the volume of the case and the operational space are larger and the motional travel is longer.

  • Patent number: 10297930
    Abstract: An electrical contact limiter structure of wire connection terminal has a simplified structure and is easy to operate to enhance the stability of the operation and motion of a metal leaf spring. The wire connection terminal includes conductive components mounted in the insulation case and electrical contact assembled with the conductive components. The electrical contact has a limiter for receiving the metal leaf spring and restricting moving path thereof. The limiter is partitioned into at least one space. A limitation mechanism is assembled with the limiter. The metal leaf spring is mounted in the space. The wiring circuits or conductive wires coming from an apparatus can be easily directly plugged into the space of the limiter to insert with the metal leaf spring. The limiter and the limitation mechanism cooperatively prevent the metal leaf spring from being deflected and over-bent and damaged in operation.

  • Patent number: 10157717
    Abstract: A switch device structure serves to help in stably moving an operation rod. The switch device includes a contact fixing support assembled with an insulation case. The fixing support is formed with multiple openings. A connection board and multiple support members are correspondingly assembled in the openings. The support member has a base section and a neck section, which together define a passage. The operation rod is assembled with an elastic unit and can pass through the passage and the connection board to extend into the fixing support so as to move a wire connection assembly in the case. The switch device structure improves the shortcoming of the conventional switch device that the operation rod is apt to shake and deflect.
