[0001] This invention relates to the field of electronic paper product application technology, and specifically to the motion drive mechanism of electronic paper products with multiple application forms. Background Technology

[0002] In the rapid development of electronic paper display technology, Prism electronic paper, as an innovative representative, has brought about changes and innovative applications in many fields with its unique advantages and characteristics. At present, Prism applications are mostly focused on the concept of electronic skin, mainly attached to mature products, and the application forms are mainly planar and static. This single, implantable application can only attract people's attention temporarily and cannot continuously provide consumers with novelty and emotional value.

[0003] Currently, the application of e-paper products in the market has shifted from static display to dynamic display. Dynamic displays require different dynamic actions to be shown for different application scenarios, including but not limited to rotation, opening and closing, and swinging. Existing motion-driven structures of integrated e-paper products are difficult to adapt to these motion methods to achieve the relevant dynamic display effects. Therefore, this application proposes a solution. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a motion drive mechanism for multi-application electronic paper products, which solves the problem that existing electronic paper products are difficult to achieve dynamic display effects through adapted motion methods.

[0005] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solution: a motion drive mechanism for multi-application form electronic paper products, including an assemblable and detachable assembly plate, with a drive component clamped on both the front and rear sides of the assembly plate, and a receiving plate mounted on the upper rear side of the assembly plate, the receiving plate being provided with a motion conversion structure; the drive component includes a motor disposed on the rear side of the assembly plate, and a gear crank rocker structure is disposed through the output end of the motor through the assembly plate for forming a reciprocating oscillating drive action; the motion conversion structure includes a drive bevel gear, a transmission bevel gear, and a driven bevel gear sleeved on the output end of the motor, the drive bevel gear and the transmission bevel gear constituting an axial rotation drive action; the drive bevel gear, the transmission bevel gear, and the driven bevel gear constituting a vertical opening and closing drive action.

[0006] The gear crank rocker structure is further configured such that: the gear crank rocker structure includes a drive tooth connected to the output end of the motor, and the lower side of the drive tooth is symmetrically provided with a meshing side helical tooth one and a side helical tooth two.

[0007] Further configuration: a transmission rod is rotatably connected to the outer edge of both the first and second side helical teeth; a swing rod is installed at the upper end of each pair of transmission rods; a connecting rod is installed at the end of each swing rod; and a butterfly wing is installed on the outer side of each connecting rod.

[0008] The configuration is further defined as follows: a rotating rod is vertically inserted through the middle of one side of the receiving plate, the bottom of the rotating rod is connected to a transmission bevel gear, and the top of the rotating rod is connected to a rotating plate for installing a dynamic color-changing windmill.

The rotation of the dynamic color-changing windmill is driven by a motor, which converts the horizontal rotation into a vertical rotation through a drive bevel gear and a transmission bevel gear. Finally, the rotating plate simulates the dynamic movement of the color-changing windmill. The opening and closing action of the dynamically changing color flower is driven by a motor. The motor first converts the horizontal rotation action into the vertical rotation action by driving bevel gears, transmission bevel gears, driven bevel gears, as well as lead screws, linear sleeves, and opening and closing cones.

[0016] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0017] Example 1 To address the challenge of achieving dynamic display effects through adapted movement methods in existing electronic paper products, the following technical solution is proposed: Reference Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, the motion driving mechanism of the multi-application form electronic paper product in this embodiment includes an assemblable and detachable combination mounting plate 1. The front and rear sides of the bevel gear combination mounting plate 1 are clamped with driving components. A receiving plate 11 is installed on the upper rear side of the bevel gear combination mounting plate 1. An action conversion structure is provided on the bevel gear receiving plate 11. The present invention uses the assemblable and detachable combination mounting plate 1 as the main structure. Through assembly and disassembly actions, it can serve as the main structure of application products such as dynamic color-changing butterflies, dynamic color-changing windmills, and dynamic color-changing flowers, respectively, to realize different driving actions and thus display different dynamic effects. The details are described below. Reference Figure 3 - Figure 6 As shown, the bevel gear drive assembly includes a motor 10 disposed on the rear side of the combined mounting plate 1. The output end of the bevel gear motor 10 passes through the combined mounting plate 1 and is provided with a gear crank rocker structure for forming a reciprocating oscillating drive action. The gear crank rocker structure includes a drive gear 2 connected to the output end of the motor 10. Symmetrically arranged on the lower side of the bevel gear drive gear 2 are two meshing side helical teeth 3 and 4. A transmission rod 5 is rotatably connected to the outer edge of both side helical teeth 3 and 4. A swing rod 6 is mounted on the upper end of the pair of bevel gear transmission rods 5. A connecting rod 7 is mounted on the end of each bevel gear swing rod 6. A butterfly flap 8 is mounted on the outer side of the bevel gear connecting rod 7. The motor 10 provides driving force, causing the drive gear 2 to rotate. The drive gear 2 then rotates the side helical teeth 3 and 4 sequentially, thereby driving the eccentrically connected transmission rods 5 to complete the crank rocker action. The transmission rods 5 cause the swing rods 6 to reciprocate, creating a reciprocating "flapping" effect on the butterfly flap 7 at the end of the swing rod 6, thus simulating the dynamic effect of a color-changing butterfly.

[0018] Reference Figure 7 - Figure 8As shown, the bevel gear action conversion structure includes a driving bevel gear 12, a transmission bevel gear 13, and a driven bevel gear 15 sleeved on the output end of the motor 10. The bevel gear driving bevel gear 12 and the transmission bevel gear 13 constitute an axial rotation driving action. A rotating rod is vertically installed through the middle of one side of the receiving plate 11. The bottom of the bevel gear rotating rod is connected to the transmission bevel gear 13, and the top of the bevel gear rotating rod is connected to a rotating plate 14 for mounting the dynamic color-changing windmill. The motor 10 provides driving force, drives the driving bevel gear 12 to rotate, and the transmission bevel gear 13 meshing with the driving bevel gear 12 rotates, driving the dynamic color-changing windmill located on the rotating plate 14 to rotate, thereby simulating the dynamic effect of the dynamic color-changing windmill.

[0019] Reference Figure 8 - Figure 10 As shown, the bevel gear drives the bevel gear 12, the transmission bevel gear 13, and the driven bevel gear 15 to form a vertical opening and closing drive action; a lead screw 16 is rotatably installed in the middle of the other side of the receiving plate 11. The lower end of the bevel gear lead screw 16 is connected to the driven bevel gear 15. A straight-moving sleeve 17 is threaded on the upper end of the bevel gear lead screw 16. An opening and closing cone cover 18 is connected to the upper end of the bevel gear straight-moving sleeve 17. The bevel gear opening and closing cone cover 18 is inserted into the receiving plate 11 through a guide rod (not shown in the figure). The lead screw 16 extends to the upper end of the straight-moving sleeve 17 and rotates and hinges to a flower piece 19. The bottom of the bevel gear flower piece 19 is hinged to the outer side of the lead screw 16. The outer periphery of the bevel gear flower piece 19 is in contact with the inner wall of the opening and closing cone cover 18. In the above, the motor 10 drives the driven bevel gear 15 and the lead screw 16 to rotate synchronously through the meshing transmission effect of the drive bevel gear 12 and the transmission bevel gear 13. The straight-moving sleeve 17 outside the driven bevel gear 15 moves up or down depending on the rotation direction of the drive bevel gear 12 driven by the motor 10. The straight-moving sleeve 17 outside the lead screw 16 and the opening and closing cone cover 18 also move up or down. The flower petals 19 hinged to the top of the lead screw 16 will simultaneously "open" or "close" to achieve the dynamic effect of dynamically changing color flowers.

[0020] Basic principle: This invention is applied to the dynamic application of electronic paper products. Through the motion driving mechanism, dynamic color-changing butterflies, dynamic color-changing windmills, and dynamic color-changing flowers are driven to swing, rotate, and open and close, respectively, so as to realize the biomimetic dynamic display effect of electronic paper products. Moreover, through the modular application of the assembled structure, the electronic paper products can operate independently to achieve the purpose of completing different dynamic action displays with adapted motion methods.

[0021] Example 2 This embodiment, based on Embodiment 1, provides a further detailed description of the auxiliary connection structure applied to the dynamically changing windmill and dynamically changing flowers, referring to... Figure 1 - Figure 10 As shown, a counterweight frame 9 is installed on one side of the motor 10 corresponding to the combined mounting plate 1. The bevel gear counterweight frame 9 is covered and set outside the action conversion structure. The bevel gear rotating plate 14 and the opening and closing cone cover 18 both extend above the counterweight frame 9. The counterweight frame 9 is set to shield the drive mechanism and distribute the counterweight, so as to facilitate the balanced display of various simulated dynamic actions and avoid the phenomenon of disordered action display.

[0022] It also includes rotating rods and guide rods (not all shown in the figure) respectively set on both sides of the receiving plate 11. The rotating rods are connected to the upper end of the transmission bevel gear 13. The rotating rods pass through the receiving plate 11 and are connected to the rotating plate 14. The upper end of the rotating plate 14 is connected to the dynamic color-changing windmill, so as to complete the dynamic effect display in the electronic paper product - dynamic color-changing windmill. The guide rod provides vertical movement guidance for the opening and closing cone 18. When the lead screw 16 rotates, the linear sleeve 17 and the opening and closing cone 18, which are threadedly connected to the lead screw 16, move upward or downward. At this time, the linear sleeve 17 and the opening and closing cone 18 move upward or downward under the guidance of the guide rod, thereby indirectly driving the opening and closing action of the flower leaf 19.

[0023] Example 3 Reference Figure 1 - Figure 10 As shown, this embodiment combines the technical content of Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2 to form an action driving method for multi-application electronic paper products, including the following steps: The flapping motion of the dynamic color-changing butterfly is driven by the motor 10, which drives the symmetrically arranged swing rods 6 to form a synchronous vibration motion through the gear crank rocker structure, simulating the dynamic motion of the color-changing butterfly. The rotation of the dynamic color-changing windmill is driven by the motor 10, which converts the horizontal rotation into the vertical rotation through the drive bevel gear 12 and the transmission bevel gear 13, and finally simulates the dynamic movement of the color-changing windmill through the rotating plate 14. The opening and closing action of the dynamically color-changing flower is driven by the motor 10. The motor drives the bevel gear 12, transmission bevel gear 13, driven bevel gear 15, lead screw 16, linear sleeve 17, and opening and closing cone 18 to first convert the horizontal rotation action into the vertical rotation action, and then convert the vertical rotation action into the vertical movement action. The opening and closing action of the flower petals 19 is achieved by the vertical reciprocating up and down movement of the linear sleeve 17 and the opening and closing cone 18.

[0024] In summary, this invention uses a motion-driven mechanism to drive, but is not limited to, dynamic color-changing butterflies, dynamic color-changing windmills, and dynamic color-changing flowers, to achieve swinging, rotating, and opening / closing movements, thereby realizing a biomimetic dynamic display effect for electronic paper products. Furthermore, through a modular, modular application, the electronic paper products can operate independently, enabling them to perform different dynamic motion displays in an adaptive manner. Furthermore, during dynamic display, the overall structure is highly integrated, and the structural design can be completed in a non-proportional scaling manner according to the specific electronic paper application product specifications, ensuring that the counterweight meets the display of various dynamic display effects and improving the success rate of simulated bionic movements of electronic paper multi-application products.

These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the invention to specific implementations. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification.
