Abstract
A flashlight switching structure is provided. To turn on or off a flashlight, an annular element mounted around a neck of the flashlight is manually rotated, thereby driving a magnet connected to the annular element to a position where a reed switch connected to a positioning element in the flashlight is subjected to magnetic attraction of the magnet. Once the annular element is released, the restoring force of a resilient element pushes the magnet back in place. Hence, by rotating and releasing the annular element, the flashlight can be switched between predetermined lighting modes, such as a strong light, weak light, flashing, and turned off mode. When a protruding block connected to the outer periphery of the annular element is pushed downward and partially into a corresponding recess on the flashlight, the annular element is prevented from rotation, and the flashlight from being inadvertently triggered.
