Figure 8 The figure shows a schematic diagram of the connection structure of the head-mounted device after being turned over according to an embodiment of the present invention. For ease of description, only the parts related to the embodiment of the present invention are shown in the figure.

[0031] When wearing a head-mounted device, the side of the head-mounted device that is closer to the user's face is the back side, and the side that is farther away from the user's face is the front side. Figures 1 to 8 It can be seen that the head-mounted device of the embodiment of the present invention includes a host 10 and a head support 20 for wearing the host 10 on the user's head. Rotating arms 30 are respectively rotatably installed at opposite sides of the head support 20. The two rotating arms 30 are arranged in parallel and are slidably connected to the host 10. Locking structures are respectively provided between the head support 20 and the two rotating arms 30. Two sliding drive mechanisms for driving the host 10 to slide along the two rotating arms 30 are respectively rotatably installed at opposite sides of the head support 20. The two sliding drive mechanisms are respectively coaxially arranged with the rotating arms 30 on the corresponding sides. An upward flip-toggle structure that can be engaged / separated and a downward flip-toggle structure that can be engaged / separated are respectively provided between the two sliding drive mechanisms and the rotating arms 30 on the same side. When the upward flip-toggle structure is engaged, the downward flip-toggle structure is in a separated state. When the downward flip-toggle structure is engaged, the upward flip-toggle structure is in a separated state.

[0032] After wearing the head-mounted device, when it is necessary to interact with the outside world, the two sliding drive mechanisms drive the main unit 10 to slide to the side away from the user's face, so that there is a distance between the face-contact mask on the main unit 10 and the user's face, and then the two sliding drive mechanisms are rotated at the same time, so that the two sliding drive mechanisms and the upward flip-toggle structure between the corresponding side rotating arms 30 are combined together, and the two sliding drive mechanisms are continued to rotate to drive the two rotating arms 30 to rotate upward, and the main unit 10 is flipped upward by the upward rotation of the two rotating arms 30, and the rotating arms 30 are limited to the rotated position by the locking structure. When it is necessary to flip the main unit 10 downward back to the front side of the user's face, the two sliding drive mechanisms are rotated in the opposite direction to separate the upward flip-toggle structure between the two sliding drive mechanisms and the corresponding side rotating arms 30. The two sliding drive mechanisms are combined with the downward flipping and toggling structure between the corresponding side rotating arms 30, and the two sliding drive mechanisms are rotated in the opposite direction. Continuing to rotate the two sliding drive mechanisms in the opposite direction can drive the two rotating arms 30 to rotate downward, and the main unit 10 is driven to flip downward back to the front side of the user's face by the downward rotation of the two rotating arms 30, and the rotating arms 30 are limited to the rotated position by the locking structure. Since there is a gap between the face mask and the user's face after the main unit 10 slides to the side away from the user's face, the face mask will not contact the user's face when the main unit 10 flips up or down, avoiding the face mask rubbing against the user's face when the main unit 10 flips over. The head-mounted device according to the embodiment of the present invention solves the problem of the face mask rubbing against the user's face when the main unit is flipped over.

[0033] Specifically, since the upward flip toggle structure can be engaged / separated and the downward flip toggle structure can be engaged / separated, when the upward flip toggle structure and the downward flip toggle structure are in a separated state, the two sliding drive mechanisms can drive the host 10 to slide along the two rotating arms 30, thereby adjusting the distance between the host 10 and the user's face and realizing visual distance adjustment.

[0034] In an embodiment of the present invention, in order to facilitate the sliding connection between the rotating arm 30 and the main unit 10, sliding arms 11 are fixed on both sides of the main unit 10, and the two sliding arms 11 are respectively slidably connected to the rotating arms 30 on the corresponding sides, and the sliding drive mechanism is arranged between the head support 20 and the sliding arms 11.

[0035] Depend on Figure 1 、 Figure 5 and Figure 7 As can be seen, the sliding drive mechanism includes a cam 40 rotatably mounted on the head support 20. This cam 40 is coaxially arranged with the rotating arm 30 on the same side. An arc-shaped connecting slot 41 is provided on the cam 40. The distance between the first end of the connecting slot 41 and the rotating axis of the cam 40 is smaller than the distance between the second end of the connecting slot 41 and the rotating axis of the cam 40. The mechanism also includes a lever 13 fixed to the end of the sliding arm 11 away from the main unit 10 and inserted into the connecting slot 41. Specifically, the connecting slot 41 is an elongated hole that extends through the entire cam 40 in the thickness direction.

[0036] In other embodiments, the sliding drive mechanism may also be configured as a slide rail and slider assembly, wherein one end of the slide rail of the slide rail and slider assembly is rotatably mounted on the head support 20, and the rotation axis of the slide rail is coaxially arranged with the rotation axis of the rotating arm 30. The end of the slide arm 11 away from the host 10 is fixedly connected to the slider of the slide rail and slider assembly. During use, the position of the host 10 can be adjusted by pushing or pulling the slide rail of the slider assembly to slide.

[0037] Typically, a guide groove 12 is provided on the side of the slide arm 11 near the pivot arm 30. A slider (not shown) is fixed to the corresponding side of the pivot arm 30 and inserted into the guide groove 12. The two pivot arms 30 are disposed between the two slide arms 11, facilitating the assembly of the main unit 10 and the head support 20 via the two slide arms 11, the two pivot arms 30, and the two sliding drive mechanisms. Of course, a sliding connection can also be achieved using a slide rail and slider assembly.

[0038] In this embodiment of the present invention, the upward flipping mechanism includes a cam push structure provided on the cam 40, which corresponds to the rotating arm push structure provided on the rotating arm 30. The cam push structure is provided on the side of the rotating arm push structure away from the main unit 10. When the cam 40 is rotated, the cam push structure rotates synchronously with the cam 40. As the cam push structure rotates toward the rotating arm push structure, the rotating cam 40 can push the main unit 10 to slide, thereby achieving viewing distance adjustment. After the cam push structure and the rotating arm push structure are in contact, the thrust applied to the rotating arm push structure can push the rotating arm 30 to rotate, thereby achieving upward flipping of the main unit 10.

[0039] Specifically, the cam pushing structure is an upward-flipping limiting rib 42 arranged on the side of the cam 40 close to the rotating arm 30, and the upward-flipping limiting rib 42 extends radially along the rotating axis of the cam 40; the rotating arm pushing structure is a rotating arm limiting rib arranged on the side of the rotating arm 30 close to the cam 40, and the rotating arm limiting rib extends radially along the rotating axis of the rotating arm 30.

[0040] Typically, the upward-turning limiting rib 42 and the cam 40 are connected to form an integral structure.

[0041] In other embodiments, the flip-up toggle structure can also be configured as follows, including a connecting rod fixed to the cam 40 and parallel to the rotation axis of the cam 40, and an arc-shaped slide groove provided on the rotating arm 30, wherein the arc-shaped slide groove is coaxial with the rotation axis of the cam 40 and the rotation axis of the rotating arm 30, and the connecting rod is inserted into the arc-shaped slide groove. When the cam 40 is rotated, the connecting rod rotates synchronously with the cam 40 and can slide along the arc-shaped slide groove. When the connecting rod is at a position between the two ends of the arc-shaped slide groove, when the two cams 40 on both sides are rotated simultaneously, the main unit 10 can be pushed to slide, thereby achieving line of sight adjustment. When the connecting rod slides to the end of the arc-shaped slide groove close to the main unit 10, the cam 40 is continued to be rotated, and the rotating arm 30 can be rotated by the connecting rod, thereby achieving flipping of the main unit 10.

[0042] In the embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 It can be seen that the downward flipping and toggling structure includes a one-way inner gear ring 31 arranged on the rotating arm 30 and coaxially with the rotating axis of the rotating arm 30, a mounting base 50 arranged in the one-way inner gear ring 31 and fixedly connected to the rotating axis of the cam 40, a first pushing structure and a second pushing structure arranged at intervals on the mounting base, and a pawl 60 rotatably installed on the mounting base 50 between the first pushing structure and the second pushing structure, the rotating axis of the pawl 60 is parallel to the rotating axis of the cam 40 and a spacing is provided between the rotating axis of the pawl 60 and the rotating axis of the cam 40, and the pawl 60 is slidably installed on the mounting base 50 along the setting direction of its rotating axis; it also includes an elastic member 70 for pushing the pawl 60 to slide toward the side close to the mounting base 50, and a third pushing structure arranged on the head support 20 for pushing the pawl 60 to slide toward the side away from the mounting base 50.

[0043] Specifically, the first pushing structure is arranged on a side away from the host 10 , and the second pushing structure is arranged on a side close to the host 10 .

[0044] In the initial state, if Figure 2 、 Figure 3As shown, the pawl 60 corresponds to the third pushing structure. Under the limitation of the third pushing structure, the pawl 60 is located on the side away from the mounting seat 50, and the pawl 60 is in a separated state from the one-way inner gear ring 31, and a gap is provided between the first pushing structure and the pawl 60; when the cam 40 is rotated, the mounting seat 50 rotates synchronously, and the first pushing structure rotates toward the side close to the pawl 60. When the first pushing structure does not contact the pawl 60, when the cam 40 is rotated, the cam 40 drives the main unit 10 to slide through the connecting groove 41, the shift rod 13 and the sliding arm 11 to achieve sight distance adjustment; continue to rotate the cam 40, and the upward flip-up toggle structure between the cam 40 and the rotating arm 30 can drive the rotating arm 30 to rotate, so that the main unit 10 flips up. While the main unit 10 flips up, the first pushing structure continues to rotate toward the side close to the pawl 60 until the first pushing structure contacts the pawl 60 and pushes the pawl 60 to rotate. After the pawl 60 rotates, it disengages from the third pushing structure. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, under the elastic force of the elastic member 70, the pawl 60 slides toward the side close to the mounting seat 50 and is stuck between two adjacent single teeth of the one-way inner gear ring 31; the cam 40 is continuously rotated, and the arm 30, the mounting seat 50 and the pawl 60 rotate synchronously with it until the main body 10 is flipped up to the top, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 and Figure 8 When the main unit 10 needs to be flipped downward to the front side of the user's face, the cam 40 is rotated in the opposite direction, and the upward flip-toggle structure between the cam 40 and the rotating arm 30 is separated. At the same time, the second pushing structure rotates toward the side close to the pawl 60. Since there is a gap between the rotating shaft of the pawl 60 and the rotating shaft of the cam 40, and the pawl 60 is stuck between two adjacent single teeth of the one-way inner gear ring 31, the second pushing structure, the pawl 60 and the one-way inner gear ring 31 can cooperate to push the rotating arm 30 to rotate downward, driving the main unit 10 to flip downward. When the main unit 10 is flipped downward to the front side of the user's face, the cam 40 is continued to be rotated, and the pawl 60 continues to rotate and rotates to the third pushing structure. Under the limitation of the third pushing structure, the pawl 60 slides toward the side away from the mounting seat 50, and the pawl 60 is separated from the one-way inner gear ring 31. The rotating arm 30 no longer rotates downward, and the rotating arm 30 is limited to the position where it has rotated to by the locking structure.

[0045] Depend on Figure 4 It can be seen that a recessed area 51 is provided on the mounting seat 50, a first side wall 52 is provided on the side of the recessed area 51 away from the main unit 10, and a second side wall 53 is provided on the side of the recessed area 51 close to the main unit 10. The first side wall 52 forms a first pushing structure, and the second side wall 53 forms a second pushing structure. The pawl 60 is rotatably installed on the bottom surface of the recessed area 51 between the first side wall 52 and the second side wall 53.

[0046] To facilitate installation, a mounting shaft 54 ​​is fixed on the side of the mounting seat 50 away from the recessed area 51, and the cam 40 is fixed on the mounting shaft 54. Specifically, a circular groove is provided on one side surface of the rotating arm 30, and the one-way inner gear ring 31 is arranged on the inner side wall of the circular groove. A circular mounting plate is provided on the other side surface of the rotating arm 30 corresponding to the circular groove, and a through hole connected to the circular groove is provided on the circular mounting plate. The mounting shaft 54 ​​passes through the through hole. The mounting shaft 54 ​​is rotatably installed on the head support 20 to form the rotating axis of the rotating arm 30 and the cam 40. Usually, a accommodating hole adapted to the circular mounting plate is provided on the head support 20. The circular mounting plate is rotatably installed at the accommodating hole, which facilitates the rotatable installation of the rotating arm 30 and can make the rotation of the rotating arm 30 more stable.

[0047] Depend on Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 6 and Figure 8 As can be seen, the pawl 60 includes a pawl body 61 and a plate body 62 fixedly connected to the end of the pawl body 61, with a right angle formed between the pawl body 61 and the plate body 62. Accordingly, the third pushing structure is provided on the protrusion 22. The side of the protrusion 22 closer to the main unit 10 is provided with an inclined surface, which can serve as a guide. The interaction between the protrusion 22 and the plate body 62 can push the pawl 60 to slide away from the mounting base 50.

[0048] Specifically, a mounting hole is provided at the connection between the pawl body 61 and the plate body 62, and a bolt 90 passing through the mounting hole is fixed on the bottom surface of the recessed area 51. The elastic member 70 is a spring sleeved on the rod part between the head of the bolt 90 and the pawl 60. Of course, it can also be a sleeve made of elastic material.

[0049] In other embodiments, the downward flipping toggle structure may also be configured as follows, including a downward flipping limiting rib provided on the side of the cam 40, the downward flipping limiting rib extending radially along the rotation axis of the cam 40; and a corresponding rotating arm limiting rib provided on the rotating arm 30, the rotating arm limiting rib extending radially along the rotation axis of the rotating arm 30, the downward flipping limiting rib being provided on the side of the rotating arm limiting rib close to the main body 10. It should be noted that the rotating arm limiting rib of the downward flipping toggle structure and the rotating arm limiting rib of the upward flipping toggle structure are of the same structure, or rotating arm limiting ribs may be provided on the corresponding downward flipping toggle structure and the corresponding upward flipping toggle structure respectively.

[0050] In an embodiment of the present invention, the outer peripheral side of the rotating arm 30 away from the main unit 10 is set to a circular shape, and the locking structure includes a spring plunger 80 fixed on the head support 20, and two positioning grooves spaced apart on the outer peripheral side of the rotating arm 30 away from the main unit 10. One positioning groove is located at the midline position of the rotating arm 30, and is used to limit the main unit 10 to the front side of the user's face. The other positioning groove is located on the upper side of the midline, and is used to limit the main unit 10 to the flipped-up position.
