Multi-stage button switch
First Claim
1. A multi-stage button switch, comprising a body which has a housing space, an elastic element located in the housing space to receive forces and store a returning elastic force, and a compression element which is located in the body and coupled with the elastic element and movable up and down in the housing space;
- wherein the compression element has an integrated flexible harness arm, the body having a track zone corresponding to a moving path of the harness arm according to the up and down movement of the compression element, the track zone having a harness portion, the moving path of the compression element and the harness arm being defined by the track zone and the geometric shape of the harness portion that includes a start position, a first stage compression position, a compressed position and a second stage compression position in this order.

Abstract
A multi-stage button switch includes a body, an elastic element and a compression element. The compression element has an integrated flexible harness arm. The body has a track zone and a harness portion which is formed with a selected geometric shape to define the moving path of the compression element that includes a start position, a first stage compression position, a compressed position and a second stage compression position in this order. The button switch thus formed consists of fewer elements, is simply structured and can be fabricated and assembled easily.
