Abstract:
1. A pressure switch comprising: a body including a receiving space defined therein and formed with a close end and an open end, four passages respectively and longitudinally defined in a periphery of the receiving space, and a threaded hole defined in the close end of the body and communicating with the receiving space, a micro-adjust set received in the receiving space, the micro-adjust set including a cap urged toward the close end of the body and corresponding to the threaded hole, a resilient member, an adjust seat, an insulate stick and an insulator sequentially disposed on the cap, wherein the resilient member is compressively mounted between the cap and the adjust seat and the insulator is sleeved on the insulate stick, a first lead and a second lead respectively inserted into a corresponding one of the four passages, a bolt screwed through the threaded hole to abut against a bottom of the cap of the micro-adjust set; a lower cap mounted to a lower end of the body, the lower cap having two passages longitudinally defined therein, a first prong and a second prong respectively extending through a corresponding one of the two passages in the lower cap and electrically connected to the first lead and the second lead; an upper cap mounted to an upper end of the body, the upper cap including an inlet defined therein and extending therethrough, a free space defined in the upper cap for sequentially receiving a washer, a diaphragm, a first seat and a second seat, a first resilient film and a second resilient film respectively disposed in the first seat and the second seat, the diaphragm selectively closing the inlet, the insulator movably received in the second seat, the insulate stick sequentially extending through the second seat, the second resilient film and the first seat and abutting against the first resilient film; and a casing airtightly sleeved on an outer periphery of each of the lower cap and the upper cap.
