Cars are increasingly becoming one of the necessary means of transport for people to travel, and understanding the internal structure of the car will help us to better manage the car. This article is intended to talk about the definition and characteristics of waterproof micro switches and tact switches, as well as their application in the trunk lock, for your reference only.
Definition of Waterproof Micro Switch and Tact Switch
Waterproof micro switches and tact switches are two common electronic switching devices used to control the on-off of the circuit. Waterproof micro switches are waterproof and dustproof and are suitable for applications that require a waterproof environment, such as car hood and washing machines. Tactile switches are devices that can be switched on and off with a light touch and are usually used in applications that require frequent operation, such as electronic equipment and household appliances.
Characteristics of Waterproof Micro Switches and Tactile Switches
Waterproof micro switches are usually waterproof with IP67 level, which can operate stably in humid or dusty environments and protect the equipment from water and dust. In addition, waterproof micro switches have high durability and can withstand prolonged use and frequent switching operations without damage.
Tactile switches are characterized by high sensitivity and can be switched on and off with a light touch, making them easy and quick to operate. This kind of switch usually adopts the touch-type design, without extra pressing force, which can reduce the user’s hand fatigue. Tactile switches can also be designed in a variety of shapes and colors, suitable for different application scenarios and equipment. At the same time, tactile switches are also small in size and weight, making them easy to install and carry.
Applicationof These Two Type of Switches in Car Trunk Locks
Waterproof micro switches and tact switches are usually applied to the tailgate of car trunk locks. They can give full play to their respective advantages to improve the convenience and safety of trunk locks. When the trunk is closed, the switch transmits a signal to the vehicle’s control system to inform that the trunk is closed and can be locked. And when the trunk is not closed or locked, the switch transmits a corresponding signal to remind the driver to deal with the situation in time to ensure driving safety and vehicle integrity.
In a nutshell, the waterproof micro switch is responsible for detecting the status of the trunk to ensure that the trunk is locked when closed and unlocked when opened, while the tact switch is responsible for user operation, allowing users to control the trunk on/off quickly and easily, improving the user experience. The use of the two types of switches not only improves the reliability and stability of the trunk lock but also enhances the safety and anti-theft performance of the vehicle, providing users with a more convenient and safe experience.
