Abstract

The invention discloses a rotary knob assembly and a household electric appliance. The rotary knob assembly comprises a panel, a rotary knob, a display screen, a rotating state detection device, and a display control device, wherein the panel is fixedly arranged on an installation plane, the rotary knob is positioned on the panel and rotates relative to the panel, the display screen is fixed on an outer surface of the rotary knob and is used for displaying images, the rotating state detection device is used for detecting a rotating state of the rotary knob, and the display control device is used for controlling a display angle of the images displayed by the display screen when the rotary knob rotates; when the rotary knob rotates, a user can observe operation parameters of the rotary knob without going along a rotating direction of the rotary knob, and the user can therefore conveniently observe the operation parameters of the rotary knob; user experience is improved.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electronic control components, in particular to a knob assembly and household appliances. Background technique [0002] The knob is a manual element that is turned by hand. According to functional requirements, it can be rotated multiple times continuously, and the rotation angle can reach 360°. It can be rotated or pushed out to start and manipulate or control electrical equipment, such as radios, televisions, or central air conditioners. [0003] When operating the knob, the user obtains the operating parameters of the knob by observing the rotation of an ordinary circular protrusion, disc or dial with one or a series of labels engraved on the edge of the knob. However, with the abundant functions of controlled electrical appliances, a knob that can only display the rotation angle of the knob can no longer meet the needs of users. At present, knobs are configured for some electrical appliances with ...
