[0002] With the development of rail transportation equipment towards overseas and international markets, vertical control desks that adapt to the driving habits of drivers are gradually widely used. Vertical control desks are mostly used in small driver's rooms, and their characteristics are small size and narrow width. Due to the space limitation of the control desk itself, the current vertical control desk has problems such as limited equipment arrangement space, inconvenient assembly and maintenance, and inability to achieve flexible operation by changing the workbench angle.

[0003] As shown in Figure 6 , the traditional control desk is arranged at the rear side of the front window of the cab and close to the side wall of the cab. The traditional control desk adopts an upper and lower structure, which includes a control desk surface 9 and a control desk lower cabinet 10, and the operation table surface 9 is arranged above the control desk lower cabinet 10. The maintenance door 6 is arranged in the area above the footboard of the control desk lower cabinet 10, and the control desk surface 9 and the maintenance door 6 are both facing the front window glass of the cab. The maintenance door 6 is above the driver's control desk surface 9, and the driver's seat is arranged at the rear. The train control device and display screen of the traditional control desk are arranged in the control desk surface 9 above the control desk, which is convenient for the driver to operate. However, such a layout will result in the occupation of the maintenance space, and the maintenance space is narrow and inconvenient. At the same time, all the driver's operation equipment (such as the driver controller and the button switch) are arranged on the operation table surface 9, and various low-voltage electrical appliances (such as circuit breakers, modules, terminal blocks, relays and other equipment) are arranged in the operation table lower cabinet. Due to the influence of operation accessibility and maintenance convenience, the number of equipment installations is limited, and it is not suitable for the arrangement of multiple devices. SUMMARY
