Industrial Toggle Switch Principle and Classification

Industrial toggle switch as a part of the switch with the rapid development of industry technology in the market application is more and more widely many large equipment on the choice of industrial toggle switch has a high demand. Toggle switches are common, but they are used in many places. Switch type is also very complete. So, what are the forms of toggle switches? If you want to buy it, how should you choose the correct form? Toggle switches have a wide range of applications, but many people know their knowledge, and the working principle of toggle switches are not familiar with it. Then, let's understand the principle and classification of industrial toggle switches together!

The toggle switch is a manual control switch, which is mainly used for the on-off control of AC and DC power circuits, but generally can also be used for circuits of several kilohertz or up to 1 MHz. It has the characteristics of small size and convenient operation, and is a commonly used switch in electronic equipment.

The working principle of the toggle switch:

When manually operated, the switch action is divided into two stages. One stage is to pull the wrench to the middle by hand and move it to the vertical position of the wrench. At this time, the front end portion of the single-blade slider also gradually approaches the intermediate position, and the compression spring is further compressed. After the trigger passes through the vertical position, the single-blade slider moves rapidly in the other direction under the pressure of the compression spring, causing the trigger to rotate rapidly. At this time, the movable contact piece is rapidly detached from one stabilizer foot and is rapidly connected to the other stabilizer foot. This is the second stage. At this time, the separation speed of the contacts is related to the pressure of the compression spring and the friction between the moving parts, and the speed is very high. Tests have shown that the time from contact disengagement to reengagement is around milliseconds, with an average speed of up to the old milliseconds. This speed is several times faster than manual speed or motorized testing.

type of toggle switch:

There are two types of operation positions: 2-bit and 3-bit. The 3-position switch has an uncertain position on one side, etc. In addition, there are many types of connection circuits. The knob handle of the button switch has a metal cone knob handle, a plastic cone knob handle, a fluorescent knob handle, a plastic shell knob handle, a spherical knob handle, a flat lever handle, a locking lever knob handle, a corrugated knob handle, a paddle knob handle, etc. The locking lever type knob is suitable for dangerous operation. In addition, the "pull-out lock release" type knob has a spring on the handle, and the threaded mouth end has a milling groove. The operator must lift the button handle and then press it to another position to ensure safe work.

Through the detailed introduction of the above content, the knowledge of the toggle switch has been more clearly understood. Therefore, when you encounter it at ordinary times, you should find out what type it is. That has greatly increased productivity. There is a great need for button switches in life. Some families are also using it, so it is very important to correctly understand its structure and understand its model.

The above is the principle and classification of industrial toggle switches. If you need to know more, please feel free to contact us!
