When mounting the switch assembly, the switch assembly can be firstly combined and connected with the separated first clamping member or assembly housing, and then the first clamping member is aligned and securely connected with the assembly housing, that is, a securable connection of the switch assembly on the assembly housing can be realized. By adopting the switch assembly structure, the direction of mounting the switch assembly is unnecessarily restricted to the direction from the outside of the assembly housing to the inside thereof, thus solving the problem of low assembling efficiency of the display device because the switch assembly adopting the relevant technologies can be assembled only in a manner of inserting from the outside of the device into the inside thereof.
In another aspect of the switch assembly structure according to an embodiment of this disclosure, the switch assembly structure further comprises:
a plug connected with the switch assembly through a conductive member;
wherein, the assembly housing is further provided with a plug mounting hole, wherein the plug is inserted in the plug mounting hole.

Of course, the structure of the switch assembly 100 is not limited to the above shape, for example, the first structural part 110 and the second structural part 120 can be formed also as a cylindrical shape respectively. However, usually in order to facilitate assembling on the housing, the switch assembly 100 is composed of two parts with different sectional areas to prevent the switch assembly 100 from falling off the housing.
Further, in conjunction with
In addition, in the switch assembly structure described in the specific embodiment of this disclosure, the plug 300 is an aviation female plug. It can be understood that the switch assembly structure is not limited only to the assembling of the switch assembly that is connected with the aviation female plug, and the plug 300 is not limited only to the structural form of the aviation female plug.

By referring to
Specifically, the assembly housing 400 further comprise a fifth end face 430 connected with the third end face and the fourth end face, wherein the third notch 420 is communicated to the fifth end face 430. The second clamping member 600 is formed as a bent sheet structure, a middle part in which the fourth notch 610 is arranged is bent towards the assembly housing 400 with respect to the parts on both sides, and the second clamping member 600 further comprises a fifth surface 620 connected with the third surface and the fourth surface, wherein the fourth notch 610 is connected to the fifth surface 620.
When the second clamping member 600 and the assembly housing 400 are combined to be mounted, the parts on both sides of the part of the second clamping member 600 in which the fourth notch 610 is arranged respectively fit and connect the assembly housing 400, and the fifth surface 620 of the second clamping member 600 opposes and fits the fifth end face 430 of the assembly housing 400. In this way the third end face of the assembly housing 400 is located in the same plane as the third surface of the second clamping member 600, and the fourth end face of the assembly housing 400 is located in the same plane as the fourth surface of the second clamping member 600, so that the various parts forming the plug mounting hole 20 are located on the same end face to ensure that the plug is firmly secured in the plug mounting hole 10.
In addition, the second clamping member 600 on both sides of the fourth notch 610 is securely connected with the assembly housing 400, for example, by screws.
