What is the difference between a self-locking switch and a self-resetting switch?
First of all, we need to know what is a self-locking switch and what is a self-resetting switch?
The self-locking switch means that when the user presses the button, when the switch travels to a specific position, it will be locked by the mechanical structure and then stop at the designated position. On a second press, the switch springs back to where it was first pressed.
There are many types of self-locking switches, such as direct key switches, light touch switches with lights, etc., which are used for switches on range hoods and floor fan lights.
The automatic reset switch means that no matter which stroke position the button is pressed, it will automatically return to the initial position. Self-resetting switches are more common, such as tact switches, direct key switches, micro switches and button switches, etc. all have self-resetting functions, and are mostly used in hair dryers, rice cookers, computer power-on buttons, etc.
The explanation on the circuit is one of the plug-in objects of the patch cord on the motherboard. When the hand is pressed, it short-circuits, and when it is released, it returns to an open circuit. A momentary short circuit will cause the computer to restart, which is simply a reset button. the
The difference between a self-locking switch and a self-resetting switch: mainly lies in the mechanical and physical structure that controls the internal stroke. The self-locking switch usually has a card position. When the stroke reaches this card position, it will automatically lock. Of course, self-locking and self-resetting are structural and functional terms that can cover various types of switches. the
The price of the self-locking switch is mostly slightly more expensive than that of the reset switch, because in terms of the key structure design principle, the internal working state of the self-locking switch has more structures than the reset one, which is used to lock the switch when pressing the first time. Reset when disconnected. For example, the intelligent light-emitting button switches in our commonly decorated furniture have self-locking and self-resetting. Usually, self-locking is mostly used to control fans and curtains in the room, and self-locking is more used. However, self-resetting is mostly used on waterproof tact switches.
