Abstract:
1. A switch-on/off vibrating alert device, comprising: a switch casing; a touch device, installed flatly onto the casing, and provided for a human hand to touch in order to turn on/off the switch, the touch device being in a transparent and translucent type; a vibrator, installed in the casing, for producing a vibration when receiving a control for an operation of turning on/off the switch from the touch device, and driving the casing and the touch device to vibrate synchronously; a containing slot, formed inside the casing, and the vibrator being installed in the containing slot; a metal sensing plate, installed in the containing slot at a position proximate to the touch device to an extent sufficient to sense the touch of a human hand, and the touch device outputting a sensing signal after sensing the touch of the human hand, the sensing plate having a hollow pattern disposed thereon; a translucent plate, installed in the containing slot between the touch device and the sensing plate, the translucent plate being in a semi-transparent and translucent type; a control unit, installed in the containing slot; a conductive element electrically coupled between the sensing plate and the control unit for transmitting the sensing signal to the control unit, where the control unit outputs a trigger signal for turning on/off and controlling an external electric appliance, and the vibrator receiving the trigger signal for vibrating; a first light emitting diode, installed at the top of the control unit; and a reflective cup, partitioned between the sensing plate and the control unit, and having a downwardly tapered reflective conical groove, the reflective cup being installed in the containing slot at an outer periphery of the first light emitting diode, such that the first light emitting diode is disposed in the conical groove, and the first light emitting diode receives the trigger signal to emit light, where the light emitted by the first light emitting diode is reflected and condensed by the conical groove to pass through the hollow pattern and the touch device and projected towards the top of the casing.
