What is Push Button Switches
Push-Button Switch , also known as control button (push button light switches), is a low-voltage electrical appliance that can be manually and generally automatically reset. metal push button switch are usually used in circuits to issue start or stop commands to control the on and off of coil currents in electromagnetic starters, contactors, relays, and other electrical appliances.
A button switches is an electrical device used to connect and disconnect small current circuits, which acts upon pressing and resets upon release. Generally used in control circuits with AC/DC voltage below 440V and current less than 5A. It does not directly operate the main circuit and can also be used in interconnected circuits.
In practical use, in order to prevent misoperation, different markings or colors are usually made on the buttons to distinguish them. The colors include red, yellow, blue, white, black, green, etc. Generally, red indicates operations in "stopped" or "dangerous" situations; Green indicates "start" or "connect". The emergency stop button must use a red mushroom head button. The button must have a metal protective ring, and the ring should be higher than the button cap to prevent accidental triggering of the button and causing misoperation. The material for installing the button board and button box must be metal and connected to the mechanical main grounding bus.
Momentary switches can be classified into various types based on different classification criteria. Here are some common classification methods:
According to the usage method. Open type, suitable for fixing on panels of switch boards, control cabinets, or control consoles; Protective, with a protective casing to prevent damage to internal parts or contact with live parts by humans; Waterproof, with a sealed shell to prevent rainwater from entering; Anti corrosion type, can prevent the invasion of corrosive gases from chemical industry; Explosion proof, suitable for places containing explosive gases and dust, such as coal mines; Knob type, operated by rotating the contact points, generally with two positions for on and off; Key type, requiring the insertion and rotation of a key for operation to prevent accidental operation; Emergency type, usually with a prominent red mushroom button head, used to cut off power in emergency situations.
According to the function. Start button (normally open button), stop button (normally closed button), and composite button (combining normally open and normally closed contacts).
According to the operation method. There are dynamic break or dynamic close types; Equipped with signal lights, capable of issuing commands; Explosion proof, radiation proof or waterproof; Emergency, open, interlocked or rotary; By key or combination.
In addition, there are different types of pushbutton switches such as button switches, touch switches, limit switches, rotary switches, touch switches, etc. Button switches have a wide range of applications in daily life and industrial control systems. Understanding these classifications helps to select the appropriate type of button switch based on specific application scenarios.
There are many types of button switches, which can be divided into ordinary button type, mushroom head type, self-locking type, self resetting type, rotary handle type, with indicator light type, with light symbol type, and key type, etc. There are single button, double button, i-button and different combination forms. Generally, it adopts a waterlogged structure, consisting of a button cap, a reset spring, a static contact, a moving contact, and a shell, etc. It is usually made into a composite type, with a pair of normally closed contacts and normally open contacts. Some products can increase the number of contact pairs by connecting multiple components in series. There is also a self-sustaining button that can automatically remain in the closed position after being pressed, and can only be opened after power is turned off.
When the button is not pressed, the moving contact is connected to the stationary contact on top, and this pair of contacts is called a normally closed contact. At this point, the moving contact is disconnected from the stationary contact below, and this pair of contacts is called normally open contacts: press the button, the normally closed contact is disconnected, and the normally open contact is closed; Release the button and restore the original working state under the action of the reset spring.
1. Reset button switch
A reset button switch refers to a button switch that needs to be pressed and then released to turn on or off the circuit. That is to say, every time the button is pressed, the switch automatically returns to its original position, so it is called a "reset type". Generally used in situations where frequent switch control is required, it has the following characteristics:
Trigger method: It needs to be pressed and then released to trigger.
Application field: Suitable for situations that require switch control within a certain period of time, such as emergency shutdown, prevention of misoperation, etc.
Advantages: Simple operation, stable performance, and long lifespan.
Disadvantage: Not suitable for situations that require constant opening or closing, such as electric doors, lights, etc.
2. Self locking button switch
A self-locking button switch refers to a button switch that can open or close a circuit with just one press, without the need to press it again to return to its original position, hence it is called a "self-locking". Generally used in situations where it is necessary to maintain an open/closed state, it has the following characteristics:
Trigger method: Just press once to trigger.
Application field: Suitable for situations that require continuous opening/closing, such as electric doors, circuit breakers, etc.
Advantages: Strong flexibility, suitable for long-term use.
Disadvantages: The operation is relatively complex and requires more electronic components, resulting in higher requirements for the circuit.
