When the cover and bottom plate are closed, dust contamination of the control panel is reduced. Simultaneously, when the cover and bottom plate are closed, the gas generated in the drying mechanism acts between the cover and bottom plate, ensuring the control panel remains dry even when in its stored state, preventing moisture and ensuring the equipment's usability. When the opening mechanism opens the equipment, the air outlet box is located on the support rod, which is positioned to one side of the control panel. The air outlet box continuously dries the control panel, preventing liquid from the operator's hands from contaminating the control panel and causing moisture in the equipment, thus affecting its use. When the drive mechanism and the wiping mechanism work together, the drive mechanism intermittently controls the wiping mechanism to work, allowing it to intermittently wipe the surface of the control panel, preventing excessive dust and undryable liquid from accumulating on the panel, further ensuring the equipment's usability and improving its practicality and ease of use.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-5 The present invention provides a technical solution:

[0026] A moisture-proof treadmill control panel capable of maintaining dryness includes a base plate 1, a cover plate 2 rotatably connected to the base plate 1, a first rotating column 3 rotatably connected inside the base plate 1, a control plate 4 disposed between the first rotating column 3 and the cover plate 2, the control plate 4 being slidably connected inside the cover plate 2, a supporting mechanism 5 disposed between the base plate 1 and the cover plate 2, a drying mechanism 9 disposed on the supporting mechanism 5, first gears 15 mounted at both ends of the first rotating column 3, self-locking mechanisms 16 disposed on both sides of the first rotating column 3, a wiping mechanism 22 disposed on the base plate 1, a driving mechanism 26 disposed on the bottom surface of the base plate 1, the driving mechanism 26 being movably connected to the supporting mechanism 5, and the driving mechanism 26 being movably connected to the wiping mechanism 22.

[0027] The opening mechanism 5 includes a sliding groove 6, a sliding rod 7, and a support rod 8. Sliding grooves 6 are provided on both the left and right sides of the cover plate 2. The sliding rod 7 is slidably connected in the sliding groove 6. The support rod 8 is provided between the sliding rod 7 and the first rotating column 3. This facilitates the opening of the bottom plate 1 and the cover plate 2, thereby unfolding the control plate 4 and making it convenient for operators to operate.

[0028] The drying mechanism 9 includes a fan 10, a heating element 11, an air outlet box 12, and an air inlet 13. The fan 10 is installed on the bottom surface of the base plate 1, and the heating element 11 is provided on one side of the fan 10. An air outlet box 12 is installed on one of the support rods 8, and multiple air inlets 13 are provided on the base plate 1. This facilitates the drying of the control board 4, thereby keeping the control board 4 dry and preventing the control board 4 from becoming damp due to sweat or liquid on it.

[0029] A corrugated pipe is fixedly connected between the air outlet box 12 and the heating component 11. Multiple air outlets are opened on one side of the air outlet box 12. The number of air inlets 13 corresponds to the number of air outlets. A shielding plate 14 is provided inside the air inlet 13. The shielding plate 14 is made of flexible rubber material, which facilitates the continuous drying of the control board 4 when it is stored, thus preventing the control board 4 from becoming damp.

[0030] The self-locking mechanism 16 includes a fixed plate 17, a locking groove 18, a rotating plate 19, a spring 20, and a locking block 21. The fixed plate 17 is mounted on the base plate 1.

The inflation component 23 is installed on the base plate 1, and the air rod 24 is provided on the inner side of the base plate 1. An air pipe is provided between the air rod 24 and the inflation component 23. The wiping plate 25 is installed at one end of the air rod 24 and is movably connected to the control plate 4. The wiping plate 25 can be wiped to keep the control plate 4 dry and clean, and to prevent the control plate 4 from containing dust and liquid.

[0032] The wiping mechanism 22 is controlled by a PLC control board to operate intermittently. The surface of the wiping plate 25 inside the wiping mechanism 22 is provided with flexible wiping cotton. It can wipe the control board 4 intermittently, thereby ensuring the cleanliness and dryness of the control board 4, while preventing continuous wiping from affecting the operator's operation.

[0033] The drive mechanism 26 includes a second rotating column 27, a second gear 28, a third gear 29, a third rotating column 30, a fourth gear 31, a fourth rotating column 32, a cam 33, a telescopic rod 34, a locking block 35, and a drive motor 36. The second rotating column 27 is rotatably connected to the bottom surface of the base plate 1. Two second gears 28 and one third gear 29 are mounted on the second rotating column 27. The second gears 28 mesh with the first gear 15. The third rotating column 30 and the fourth rotating column 32 are rotatably connected to the base plate 1.

A telescopic rod 34 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor 36. A locking block 35 is mounted on the telescopic rod 34 and is movably connected to the third rotating column 30 and the fourth rotating column 32 respectively. This facilitates the opening of the cover plate 2 and the panel, and at the same time, it can control the wiping mechanism 22 to wipe the control plate 4, thereby ensuring the use and dryness of the control plate 4.

[0034] Working principle:

[0035] In the initial working state, the cover plate 2, control plate 4, and base plate 1 are parallel. At this time, the control plate 4 is located between the base plate 1 and the cover plate 2. Simultaneously, the support rod 8 is parallel to the base plate 1, and the air outlet box 12 on the support rod 8 is also parallel to the base plate 1. The air outlet and air inlet 13 on the air outlet box 12 overlap, allowing the airflow generated by the fan 10 to be heated by the heating component 11 and then transported to the air outlet box 12, and subsequently to the air inlet 13. This ensures the control plate 4 remains dry when stored. When the cover plate 2 and base plate 1 are open, the extension mechanism 26... When the telescopic rod 34 extends or retracts, the locking block 35 on the telescopic rod 34 engages with the third rotating column 30. When the third rotating column 30 rotates, the fourth gear 31 installed on the third rotating column 30 drives the third gear 29 to rotate. At the same time, the second rotating column 27 rotates. When the second rotating column 27 rotates, the second gear 28 rotates simultaneously. When the second gear 28 rotates, the first gear 15 rotates. When the first gear 15 rotates, the first rotating column 3 rotates. When the first rotating column 3 rotates, the support rod 8 drives the sliding rod 7 to slide in the sliding groove 6, thereby creating a certain angle between the support rod 8 and the base plate 1, and thus the base plate 1... Plate 1 and cover 2 gradually open, while control plate 4 gradually moves from a horizontal to a vertical position. When control plate 4 reaches the appropriate position, the air outlet box 12 on support rod 8 is located on one side of control plate 4, continuously blowing air onto control plate 4 to ensure its dryness. Simultaneously, when the first rotating column 3 rotates, the self-locking mechanism 16 rotates, causing the locking block 21 to slide in the locking groove 18. When the drive mechanism 26 stops working, the self-locking mechanism 16 maintains the position of the first rotating column 3, thus opening cover 2 and bottom plate 1. When the control panel 4 is in operation, the air outlet box 12 can continuously dry it. After the equipment has been used for a period of time, the control telescopic rod 34 retracts, causing the telescopic rod 34 to engage with the fourth rotating column 32. At this time, the cam 33 on the fourth rotating column 32 rotates. When the cam 33 rotates, it squeezes the inflation component 23, which then delivers gas to the air rod 24, causing the air rod 24 to extend. When the air rod 24 extends, the wiping plate 25 wipes the control panel. When the cam 33 and the inflation component 23 disengage, the airflow in the air rod 24 is discharged, causing the wiping plate 25 to reset, thus repeating the intermittent operation.

[0036] When the drive mechanism 26 and the opening mechanism 5 in the equipment cooperate, the opening mechanism 5 can effectively control the opening and closing of the cover plate 2 and the bottom plate 1. When the cover plate 2 and the bottom plate 1 are closed, dust contamination of the control plate 4 can be reduced. At the same time, when the cover plate 2 and the bottom plate 1 are closed, the gas generated in the drying mechanism 9 acts between the cover plate 2 and the bottom plate 1, so that the control plate 4 can still be kept dry when it is in the storage state, avoiding the control plate 4 from getting damp, thus affecting the use of the equipment. When the opening mechanism 5 opens the equipment, the air outlet box 12 is located on the support rod 8, and at this time the support rod 8 is located on one side of the control plate 4. 12 can continuously dry the control panel 4, thus avoiding the operator's hands containing liquid, which would cause liquid to remain on the control panel 4 and subsequently lead to moisture in the equipment, affecting its use. When the drive mechanism 26 and the wiping mechanism 22 cooperate, the drive mechanism 26 can intermittently control the wiping mechanism 22 to work, so that the wiping mechanism 22 can intermittently wipe the surface of the control panel 4, thereby avoiding a large amount of dust on the control panel 4 and avoiding the presence of liquid that cannot be dried on the control panel 4, further ensuring the use of the equipment, and improving the practicality and ease of use of the equipment.
