Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of stage machinery control technology, and in particular to an angle adjustment mechanism and control console. Background Technology

[0002] Stage machinery control consoles are core control equipment in modern theaters, studios, and large performance venues, responsible for real-time control of stage machinery movement. Operators typically need to continuously monitor screens during long performances to monitor various parameters and execute real-time control commands. With the increasing diversification of performance formats and the continuous increase in the number of stage machinery, the amount of parameter information that the control console needs to process and display has grown exponentially. To meet the demand for simultaneous display of multiple information volumes, large-size, high-resolution displays have become standard configuration for professional-grade stage control consoles. However, while the introduction of large-size screens enhances information presentation capabilities, it also brings technical challenges in structural design and operator experience.

[0003] Currently, most mainstream stage machinery control consoles on the market adopt a fixed-angle screen mounting structure. In this structure, the display screen is fixedly mounted to the upper rear of the control console body via a non-adjustable bracket, maintaining a fixed angle between the screen and the control panel. While this fixed structure is simple to manufacture and has high structural strength, it reveals the following technical defects in practical applications: First, it occupies a large space and is inconvenient to transport. Because the screen protrudes from the console body at a fixed angle and height, the overall outline of the console is irregular, significantly increasing its overall height. In scenarios requiring frequent relocation, such as theater tours and equipment rentals, the irregular shape and large screen result in excessively large packaging boxes, low space utilization, and difficulty in fitting standard flight cases, greatly increasing transportation and storage costs. Furthermore, the screen's constant angled protrusion from the console surface makes it highly susceptible to damage from collisions during handling and transportation.

[0004] Secondly, the viewing angle is not adjustable, which can easily cause visual fatigue. A fixed-angle screen only provides a single viewing angle, failing to adapt to the needs of operators of different heights and sitting postures, and also unable to compensate for changes in ambient lighting conditions. Operators working for extended periods at suboptimal viewing angles are prone to neck and visual fatigue, affecting the accuracy and comfort of their operations. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This application aims to address at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this application proposes an angle adjustment mechanism and control console capable of adjusting the angle of the display component, facilitating operator operation of the display component.

[0006] The angle adjustment mechanism according to the first aspect embodiment of this application includes: A sliding assembly includes a guide rail, a slider, and an elastic support. The guide rail is used to connect to the console body, the slider is slidably connected to the guide rail, one end of the elastic support is hinged to the slider, and the other end of the elastic support is used to hinge to the console body. A linkage mechanism, one end of which is hinged to the sliding member, and the other end of which is fixed to the display component. The linkage mechanism is provided with a damping structure, which provides frictional damping for the hinged part of the linkage mechanism. The display component is rotatably connected to the console body. The slider is movable between a first position and a second position on the guide rail to drive the display component to rotate relative to the console body via the linkage mechanism; the elastic support provides a force for the slider to move from the second position to the first position.

[0007] The angle adjustment mechanism according to the embodiments of this application has at least the following beneficial effects: When the display assembly is flipped, the linkage mechanism moves with the display assembly and drives the slider to move along the guide rail. The elastic support in the slider provides a force from the second position to the first position. This force, transmitted through the linkage mechanism, forms a supporting torque that balances the gravitational torque generated when the display assembly flips downwards. The damping structure provides friction at the hinge of the linkage mechanism. This friction overcomes the residual unbalanced torque between the elastic support and the weight of the display assembly, allowing the display assembly to be flipped and suspended at any angle. The display assembly can provide multiple different usage angles to meet the viewing or operating needs of different operators. Furthermore, the flip-up design of the display assembly facilitates its storage within the control console body, making it easy to transport and reducing the risk of damage during handling.

Furthermore, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples.

[0027] according to Figures 1 to 12 As shown, the angle adjustment mechanism according to the first aspect embodiment of this application includes: The sliding assembly 100 includes a guide rail 110, a slider 120, and an elastic support 130. The guide rail 110 is used to connect to the console body 500, the slider 120 is slidably connected to the guide rail 110, one end of the elastic support 130 is hinged to the slider 120, and the other end of the elastic support 130 is used to hinge to the console body 500. Linkage mechanism 200, one end of linkage mechanism 200 is hinged to sliding member 120, the other end of linkage mechanism 200 is used to fix to display component 600, linkage mechanism 200 is provided with damping structure, damping structure is used to provide friction damping for the hinge part of linkage mechanism 200, display component 600 is rotatably connected to console body 500. The slider 120 can move between a first position and a second position on the guide rail 110, and drives the display component 600 to rotate relative to the console body 500 by moving the linkage mechanism 200; the elastic support 130 is used to provide the slider 120 with a force from the second position to the first position.

[0028] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the guide rail 110 extends along the x-axis direction, as... Figure 5As shown, the first and second positions are located at both ends of the guide rail 110 along the x-axis. Limiting members 111 are respectively provided at the first and second positions of the guide rail 110. A sliding member 120 is slidably connected to the guide rail 110 along the x-axis and is positioned between the two limiting members 111. The limiting members 111 restrict the movement range of the sliding member 120, allowing the sliding block to move between the first and second positions of the guide rail 110. The hinge axis of the linkage mechanism 200 and the sliding member 120 is parallel to the y-axis. The display assembly 600 is hinged to the console body 500 via a third hinge axis, which is parallel to the y-axis. An elastic support member 130 is positioned along the x-axis.

[0029] The control console includes a console body 500, a display component 600, and an angle adjustment mechanism. A control panel 510 is mounted on the upper surface of the console body 500, and the display component 600 is rotatably connected to the console body 500. When the display component 600 is not rotated, its upper surface is flush with the upper surface of the control panel 510. During use, the display component 600 can rotate upwards relative to the console body 500. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, when slider 121 is in the first position, display component 600 is flipped up relative to console body 500 and fixed at a certain angle. Figure 3 The diagram shows the rotation axis CC between the display component 600 and the console body 500. When the slider 121 is in the first position, the display component 600 can rotate around the rotation axis CC. Figure 3 The arrow indicates that the console body 500 rotates relative to the console body 500. At this time, the display component 600 flips downward relative to the console body 500, thereby causing the slider 121 to return to the second position.

[0030] like Figures 3 to 5 As shown, when the display component 600 is flipped upwards, the linkage mechanism 200 moves with the display component 600 and drives the slider 120 to move. The slider 120 moves from the second position to the first position along the x-axis. The elastic support member 130 in the sliding component 100 provides a thrust to the slider 120 from the second position to the first position. This thrust is transmitted through the linkage mechanism 200 and forms a supporting torque that supports the display component 600. This supporting torque is balanced by the gravitational torque generated by the display component 600. The damping structure provides friction at the hinge of the linkage mechanism 200. This friction can overcome the residual unbalanced torque between the elastic support member 130 and the gravity of the display component 600, thereby allowing the display component 600 to be flipped to any angle and suspended.

[0031] The display component 600 offers multiple viewing angles to meet the viewing or operational needs of different operators. Its flip-up design allows for easy storage within the control console body 500, facilitating transportation and reducing the risk of damage during handling.

[0032] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, the elastic support 130 is a pneumatic rod, which supports the linkage mechanism 200 when the slider 120 is stationary, thereby fixing the angle of the display component 600 and preventing it from rotating or tilting unexpectedly. The elastic support 130 can also be a hydraulic rod or other structure that can achieve a buffering and damping effect.

[0033] According to some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the linkage mechanism 200 includes a first link 210 and a second link 220. The first end of the first link 210 is hinged to the slider 120, and the second end of the first link 210 is hinged to the first end of the second link 220. The second end of the second link 220 is fixed to the display assembly 600. The damping structure includes a first damping element 250 and a second damping element 260. The first damping element 250 is disposed at the hinge between the first link 210 and the slider 120, and the second damping element 260 is disposed at the hinge between the first link 210 and the second link 220.

[0034] like Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, when the display component 600 flips upward, since the second end of the second link 220 is fixed to the display component 600, the display component 600 drives the second link 220 to swing. The second end of the first link 210 is hinged to the first end of the second link 220, and the second link 220 further drives the first link 210 to swing. The first end of the first link 210 is hinged to the slider 120, and the first link 210 drives the slider 120 to move along the guide rail 110. During this process, relative rotation occurs between the first link 210 and the slider 120, and between the first link 210 and the second link 220. The first damping member 250 and the second damping member 260, located at the two hinge points, provide frictional damping, making the movement smooth. After the display component 600 stops flipping, the thrust of the elastic support member 130 balances the gravitational torque of the display component 600. Combined with the frictional force of the damping structure, the display component 600 is stably suspended at any angle.

[0035] According to some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the linkage mechanism 200 also includes a first hinge shaft 230, a second hinge shaft 240, a first locking member, and a second locking member; The first hinge shaft 230 passes through the hinge joint between the first connecting rod 210 and the sliding member 120. The first hinge shaft 230 is fitted with a first damping member 250. The first locking member is connected to the first hinge shaft 230 so that the first connecting rod 210, the sliding member 120 and the first damping member 250 are pressed together axially. The second hinge shaft 240 passes through the hinge joint between the first connecting rod 210 and the second connecting rod 220. The second hinge shaft 240 is fitted with a second damping member 260. The second locking member is connected to the second hinge shaft 240 so that the first connecting rod 210, the second connecting rod 220 and the second damping member 260 are pressed together axially.

[0036] Specifically, such as Figure 7 As shown, both the first and second locking components are threaded locking components. Both the first damping component 250 and the second damping component 260 are damping plates. By adjusting the tightness of the first and second locking components, the axial clamping force of the first damping component 250 and the second damping component 260 is changed, thereby adjusting the rotational friction force at the corresponding hinge. This design can compensate for the residual unbalanced torque between the elastic support 130 and the gravity of the display component 600, enabling the display component 600 to hover at any angle.

[0037] According to some embodiments of this application, the first link 210 includes a first member 211, a second member 212, and a locking member 213. The first member 211 and the second member 212 are detachably stacked. The first member 211 is hinged to the sliding member 120 and the second link 220. The second member 212 is hinged to the sliding member 120 and the second link 220. The first member 211 and the second member 212 are coaxially hinged to the sliding member 120. The first member 211 and the second member 212 are coaxially hinged to the second link 220. The locking member 213 is assembled to the first member 211 and passes through the first member 211 to abut against the second member 212.

[0038] like Figure 6 and Figure 8As shown, the first rod 211 is provided with a first through hole 2111 and a second through hole 2112, and the second rod 212 is provided with a third through hole 2121 and a fourth through hole 2122. The first through hole 2111 and the third through hole 2121 are coaxially arranged, forming a hinge hole corresponding to the first hinge shaft 230. The second through hole 2112 and the fourth through hole 2122 are coaxially arranged, forming a hinge hole corresponding to the second hinge shaft 240. A set hole is provided on the first rod 211. In this embodiment, the set screw 213 is set and threaded into the set hole. The end of the set screw 213 passes through the first rod 211 and abuts against the second rod 212.

[0039] When the locking member 213 is tightened, it exerts a force on the second rod 212 away from the first rod 211. The locking member 213 spreads the first rod 211 and the second rod 212 apart, causing a slight change in their relative positions. This results in a slight eccentric misalignment between the first through hole 2111 and the third through hole 2121, and between the second through hole 2112 and the fourth through hole 2122. This tightens the fit between the first hinge shaft 230 and the second hinge shaft 240 passing through the corresponding through holes, thereby altering the tightness of each hinge joint of the linkage mechanism 200. By adjusting the frictional force at each hinge joint of the linkage mechanism 200 according to the actual weight of the display component 600, the display component 600 can be stably suspended at any angle.

[0040] According to some embodiments of this application, the second link 220 is provided with a first wire passage for the wire harness of the display component 600 to pass through.

[0041] Specifically, such as Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, the second link 220 includes a mounting plate 222 and two wire guard blocks 221. One end of the mounting plate 222 is fixed to the display component 600, and the other end is hinged to the second end of the first link 210. The two wire guard blocks 221 are symmetrically and detachably assembled on both sides of the mounting plate 222. Each wire guard block 221 is provided with a wire passage groove 2211 so that the wire guard block 221 and the mounting plate 222 enclose each other to form a first wire passage channel. The wire harness of the display component 600 passes through the first wire passage channel to prevent the wire harness from being worn during the movement of the linkage mechanism 200. At the same time, the wire harness is hidden inside the second link 220, making the structure more compact, the appearance neater, and facilitating the organization and storage of the wire harness.

[0042] According to some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 5 and Figure 10As shown, the angle adjustment mechanism also includes a guide assembly 300, which includes a first mounting member 310 and a cable chain 320. The first mounting member 310 is fixed to the sliding member 120. One end of the cable chain 320 is fitted to the first mounting member 310, and the other end is fitted to the console body 500. The cable chain 320 has a second cable passage for the wiring harness of the display component 600 to pass through. After passing through the second cable passage, the wiring harness of the display component 600 is connected to the console body 500. The cable chain 320 serves to guide and protect the wiring harness, achieving orderly management of the wiring harness.

[0043] According to some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the angle adjustment mechanism also includes a drive assembly 400, which includes a drive member 410 and a gear 420. The gear 420 is connected to the output end of the drive member 410. The drive member 410 is used to fix itself to the console body 500 and drive the gear 420 to rotate. The gear 420 meshes with the slider 120.

[0044] Specifically, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the slider 120 includes a slider 121 and a rack 122. The rack 122 is fixed to the slider 121, and the slider 121 is slidably connected to the guide rail 110 along the x-axis. The rack 122 extends along the x-axis, and the gear 420 meshes with the rack 122. When the drive unit 410 is energized, it drives the gear 420 to rotate. Since the gear 420 is meshed with the slider 120, when the gear 420 rotates, it drives the rack 122 and the slider 121 to move linearly along the x-axis. When the slider 120 moves, it drives the linkage mechanism 200 hinged to it to move. The linkage mechanism 200 further drives the display component 600 to rotate relative to the console body 500, thereby realizing the electric adjustment of the angle of the display component 600.

[0045] Understandably, in this embodiment, the angle adjustment mechanism can also manually adjust the angle of the display component 600. The drive component 410 is a motor. When the drive component 410 does not drive the gear 420, the gear 420 can rotate freely, and the drive component 400 will not interfere with the manual flipping of the display component 600.

[0046] According to some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 4 , Figure 11 and Figure 12As shown, the drive assembly 400 also includes a first seat 430 and a second seat 440. The drive member 410 is mounted on the first seat 430, and the first seat 430 and the second seat 440 are rotatably connected. The second seat 440 is mounted on the console body 500. An elastic structure is provided between the first seat 430 and the second seat 440. The elastic structure is configured to allow the first seat 430 and the second seat 440 to generate relative elastic displacement to compensate for the meshing clearance between the gear 420 and the sliding member 120.

[0047] like Figure 4 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the driving component 410 is a motor, and the output end of the driving component 410 is an output shaft. The gear 420 is assembled on the output shaft. The first base 430 is rotatably connected to the second base 440 about the axis BB, and the axis BB is parallel to the output shaft. The elastic structure includes a compression spring 450, a compression spring seat 460, and a fastener 470. The compression spring seat 460 is fixed to the second base 440, and the compression spring 450 is sleeved on the compression spring seat 460. The first base 430 is provided with a through hole, and the compression spring seat 460 passes through the through hole to connect the fastener 470. The top of the compression spring 450 abuts against the lower surface of the first base 430, so that the first base 430 and the second base 440 are elastically connected. When gear 420 gets stuck with rack 122 of sliding member 120 or momentarily separates due to vibration, the deformation of spring 450 creates a buffer between gear 420 and rack 122, achieving fine adjustment of the meshing relationship between gear 420 and rack 122 of sliding member 120, and improving meshing smoothness. It is understood that the elastic structure can also be set as a spring or other similar structure.

[0048] According to some embodiments of this application, the angle adjustment mechanism also includes a plurality of limit switches for mounting on the console body 500. The limit switches are electrically connected to the drive member 410. The sliding assembly 100 also includes a trigger member, which is fixed to the sliding member 120. The trigger member is used to trigger the corresponding limit switch when the sliding member 120 moves to the corresponding position.

[0049] Specifically, the limit switches include a first limit switch and a second limit switch, which are mounted on the console body 500. The first limit switch is set at a first position corresponding to the guide rail 110, and the second limit switch is set at a second position corresponding to the guide rail 110. Both the first and second limit switches are electrically connected to the drive member 410. When the slider 120 moves to the first and second positions, the triggering part triggers the corresponding limit switch to operate, and the drive member 410 stops the drive gear 420 from rotating, causing the slider 120 to stop moving, thereby limiting the rotation range of the display component 600.

[0050] according to Figures 1 to 12 As shown, the console of the second aspect embodiment of this application includes: Console body 500; Display component 600 is rotatably connected to console body 500; An angle adjustment mechanism is provided, with guide rail 110 fixed to console body 500, the other end of elastic support 130 hinged to console body 500, and linkage mechanism 200 fixed to display component 600.

[0051] The control console of this application adjusts the flip angle of the display component 600 through the angle adjustment structure of the first aspect embodiment of this application. The display component 600 can be flipped to any angle and hovered, providing multiple different usage angles to meet the viewing or operation needs of different operators. The flip-out design of the display component 600 facilitates its storage within the control console body 500, reducing the size of the control console, making it easier to store and transport, and also reducing the risk of damage to the display component 600 during handling.
