Abstract:

Rocker switches is a commonly used hand-operated wall switch.In order to research the mechanical characteristics of the rocker switch,COMSOL Multiphysics finite element software is used to simulate the closing process of switch.Through the finite element simulation,the switching force is obtained and the reason of the closing bounce is clarified.The switching force curve and bounce waveform of the actual switch are obtained through experiments,and compared with the simulation results to verify the reliability of the simulation method.

Key words: rocker switch, mechanical characteristics, finite element simulation, switching force, closing bounce
