The space efficiency of the assembly space of the switch module is increased, and the size of the switch module and the freedom of insertion direction are increased. The present invention relates to a vehicle window lock switch device that can be easily and thus miniaturized in size for the overall switch device and can be variously applied.

BACKGROUND ART Vehicles, such as automobiles, require functions as various convenient means for allowing a user to provide a more stable and comfortable driving state beyond the function as a moving means. Accordingly, the vehicle is equipped with various convenience facilities and various switches for operating and controlling them.

In general, when operation in opposite directions is required, a seesaw switch device or sliding switch device is used in which the vertical movement of the window corresponds to the operation of the front and rear ends, for example, opening and closing a window of a vehicle, and each operation is used. Rotary switches are used to select the mode. In particular, since various switch devices and convenience facilities are installed around the driver's seat, these switch devices are required to be compact, and interference prevention between the switch devices is a necessity of the design.

On the other hand, the window switch device according to the prior art has a complicated structure for opening and closing the vehicle window. That is, the window switch disposed on the driver's side arm rest has a complicated structure because the seesaw type of each vehicle window is provided with a plurality of open / close switches, and at one side of the window switch device, the operation of the window switch device It is provided with a window lock switch device for locking and unlocking the structure is more complicated.

In particular, when the window switch device is compactly formed according to the vehicle model, interference between components occurs when the window lock switch device is mounted, and thus it is not easy to mount the window lock switch device or it is impossible to mount it at all.

Therefore, the present invention was devised to solve this problem, and a part of the switch module penetrates the printed circuit board and is disposed under the soldering surface, and the space efficiency of the switch module assembly space is increased, and the size and size of the switch module are increased.
