A sliding variable resistor includes a sliding base, a first supporting pole, two buffering members, a substrate, a casing assembly, an anchoring plate, a driving member, a driven member, a belt, and a belt guard. The sliding base includes two first through hole and at least one variable resistor sheet. The first supporting pole is inserted into the two first through hole. The first supporting pole has its two ends abut against the first buffering seats, respectively. The substrate is engaged with the two buffering members. The two buffering members are arranged in the casing assembly. The anchoring plate is fixedly arranged on the casing assembly. The belt is engaged with the driving member and the driven member, respectively. The belt guard is fastened to the sliding base, and is engaged with the belt. As such, the sliding base, while sliding, can have an improved smoothness.

Sliding variable resistor

An encoder with a tri-color LED includes an insulating base, five terminals, a conductive elastic piece, a tri-color LED assembly, an encoder substrate assembly, a conductive wiper assembly, and an insulated light shaft. The five terminals and the insulating base are formed integrally. The conductive elastic piece is received in a receiving chamber of the insulating base. The tri-color LED assembly is disposed in the receiving chamber. The encoder substrate assembly covers on both the conductive elastic piece and the tri-color LED assembly. The conductive wiper assembly is received in the encoder substrate assembly. The insulated light shaft passes through a through hole of the conductive wiper assembly and a through hole of the encoder substrate assembly. Thereby, through voltage variation of an independent tri-color LED loop, color mixing can be controlled, and that to combine the same with the encoder a function of lighting and marking can be achieved.
