Abstract

A touch switch includes a light-pervious plate, a first peripheral frame, a second peripheral frame and an electrical switch module. The light-pervious plate has a predetermined shape. The first peripheral frame corresponds in shape to the light-pervious plate. One side face of the first peripheral frame is coupled to one side face of the light-pervious plate. The second peripheral frame corresponds in shape to of the first peripheral frame. One side face of the second peripheral frame is coupled to another side face of the first peripheral frame. The electrical switch module corresponds in shape to the second peripheral frame. One side face of the electrical switch module is coupled to another side face of the second peripheral frame. The side face of the electrical switch module is provided with at least one light sensitive switch.

Claims (20)

1. A touch switch, comprising:

a light-pervious plate, a first peripheral frame, a second peripheral frame and an electrical switch module that are arranged in sequence;

the light-pervious plate having a predetermined shape;

the first peripheral frame corresponding in shape to the light-pervious plate, one side face of the first peripheral frame being coupled to one side face of the light-pervious plate;

the second peripheral frame corresponding in shape to the first peripheral frame, one side face of the second peripheral frame being coupled to another side face of the first peripheral frame;

the electrical switch module corresponding in shape to the second peripheral frame, one side face of the electrical switch module being coupled to another side face of the second peripheral frame; and

wherein the side face of the electrical switch module, facing the light-pervious plate, is provided with at least one light sensitive switch for activating the light sensitive switch on another side face of the light-pervious plate.

2. The touch switch as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the light-pervious plate is made of a glass material, the first peripheral frame is made of an aluminum material, and the second peripheral frame is made of a thermoplastic polymer material.

3. The touch switch as claimed in claim 2 , wherein further comprising a pattern disposed on the light-pervious plate.

4. The touch switch as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the pattern is disposed between the light-pervious plate and the first peripheral frame.

5. The touch switch as claimed in any one of claim 4 , wherein an inner edge of the first peripheral frame corresponds in shape to an outer edge of the light-pervious plate, an outer edge of the second peripheral frame corresponds in shape to the inner edge of the first peripheral frame, and an outer edge of the electrical switch module corresponds in shape to an inner edge of the second peripheral frame.

6. The touch switch as claimed in any one of claim 3 , wherein an inner edge of the first peripheral frame corresponds in shape to an outer edge of the light-pervious plate, an outer edge of the second peripheral frame corresponds in shape to the inner edge of the first peripheral frame, and an outer edge of the electrical switch module corresponds in shape to an inner edge of the second peripheral frame.

7. The touch switch as claimed in any one of claim 2 , wherein an inner edge of the first peripheral frame corresponds in shape to an outer edge of the light-pervious plate, an outer edge of the second peripheral frame corresponds in shape to the inner edge of the first peripheral frame, and an outer edge of the electrical switch module corresponds in shape to an inner edge of the second peripheral frame.

8. The touch switch as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the light-pervious plate has a rectangular shape with four curved corners.

9. The touch switch as claimed in any one of claim 8 , wherein an inner edge of the first peripheral frame corresponds in shape to an outer edge of the light-pervious plate, an outer edge of the second peripheral frame corresponds in shape to the inner edge of the first peripheral frame, and an outer edge of the electrical switch module corresponds in shape to an inner edge of the second peripheral frame.

10. The touch switch as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a pattern disposed on the light-pervious plate.

11. The touch switch as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the pattern is disposed between the light-pervious plate and the first peripheral frame.

12. The touch switch as claimed in any one of claim 11 , wherein an inner edge of the first peripheral frame corresponds in shape to an outer edge of the light-pervious plate, an outer edge of the second peripheral frame corresponds in shape to the inner edge of the first peripheral frame, and an outer edge of the electrical switch module corresponds in shape to an inner edge of the second peripheral frame.

13. The touch switch as claimed in any one of claim 10 , wherein an inner edge of the first peripheral frame corresponds in shape to an outer edge of the light-pervious plate, an outer edge of the second peripheral frame corresponds in shape to the inner edge of the first peripheral frame, and an outer edge of the electrical switch module corresponds in shape to an inner edge of the second peripheral frame.

14. The touch switch as claimed in any one of claim 1 , wherein an inner edge of the first peripheral frame corresponds in shape to an outer edge of the light-pervious plate, an outer edge of the second peripheral frame corresponds in shape to the inner edge of the first peripheral frame, and an outer edge of the electrical switch module corresponds in shape to an inner edge of the second peripheral frame.
