Abstract
The present invention relates to a button array and a button assembly having the same. The present invention is mounted on the rear surface of the front plate 20, the guide ring 42 formed of a material capable of elastic deformation; A plurality of buttons 48 provided at one side of the guide ring 42 and exposed to the front of the front plate 20; Is provided on one surface of the button 48 is supported on the substrate 56 provided on the front plate 20, and comprises a support protrusion 50 that is the center of rotation when the button 48 is pressed . According to the present invention as described above, there is an effect that the number of work required for the assembling work of the product is reduced, and the malfunction of the button is prevented from occurring.
Description
The present invention relates to a button array, and more particularly to a button array and a button assembly having the same according to the direction in which one button is pressed.
1 is an exploded perspective view showing a main configuration of a button assembly according to the prior art.
As shown therein, the
A
A plurality of
However, the prior art as described above has the following problems.
First, the conventional button array is composed of a
In the related art, the
Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to solve the problems of the prior art as described above, and to provide a button array and a button assembly having the same to minimize the number of parts required for the product.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a button array and a button assembly having the same to prevent a malfunction occurs in the process of pressing a button.
According to a feature of the present invention for achieving the above object, the present invention includes a circular guide ring mounted on the back of the front plate, formed of a material capable of elastic deformation; A plurality of buttons provided at one side of the guide ring and exposed to the front of the front plate; It is provided on one side of the button is supported on the substrate provided on the front plate, characterized in that it comprises a support projection that is the center of rotation when the button is pressed.
The guide ring corresponding to the button is characterized in that the fixing projection is inserted into the insertion groove formed in the front plate is fixed to protrude.
The button is provided on a locking rib formed to protrude toward the outside of the guide ring, the locking rib is characterized in that it has a longitudinal section that protrudes further outward than the button.
A pressing part for pressing the switch is formed at a position corresponding to the outermost portion of the locking rib.
The button is characterized in that four provided so as to form a 90 ° to each other around the guide ring.
According to another feature of the invention, the invention and the front plate is provided with a guide rib protruding on the back; A switch mounted on the substrate and pressed on and off by operation of the button; It characterized in that it comprises a button array of any one of
The guide ring may be hooked to a plurality of hook hooks provided at predetermined intervals along the edge of the guide rib.
Both sides of the insertion groove is provided with a fixing fence for supporting both sides of the fixing projections is characterized in that the guide ring is prevented from rotating in the circumferential direction.
The front plate is characterized in that the locking jaw is formed that the locking rib is caught in the button array is mounted.
In the present invention, the button array can be mounted to the front plate as one component through the guide ring capable of elastic deformation. Therefore, the number of parts required for the product is reduced, thereby reducing the labor required during assembly.
In addition, in the present invention, the guide ring is prevented from being rotated in the circumferential direction while mounted on the front plate, and each button is operated by the user in the state located in the button hole. Therefore, the flow is prevented in the process of the user operating the button has the effect that the button can press the switch accurately. This results in improved operation reliability of the product.
Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of a button array and a button assembly having the same according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
