[0002] In order to facilitate passengers to control the functions of various components in the car, traditional cars are equipped with physical buttons in the car. When various functions need to be adjusted, they are controlled through physical buttons. However, as the various functions in the car become more and more abundant, more and more physical buttons need to be set. The physical buttons are set in a scattered manner. When adjustments are needed, it is inconvenient to find the corresponding physical buttons according to different functional modules, which also affects the riding experience. For this reason, the multi-function knob screen came into being. The knob screen is used in conjunction with the multi-function button module. The knob screen has a display screen. Touching the display screen can replace the physical buttons. The knob screen can be installed in conspicuous and convenient places such as seats and side panels. The multi-function button module integrates the various functional control modules of the car together. The multi-function button module is operated by the knob screen to realize the control of various functional modules of the car. In this way, hundreds of functions can be controlled through different arrangements and combinations. However, the display screen of the knob screen is prone to accidental touches due to the touch-type operation method, which affects the riding experience. Utility Model Content

The bracket is similar to a ring frame structure. The bracket is used to install the transmission shaft 4 and the second rotating shaft 5, and is rotationally connected with the transmission shaft 4 and the rotating shaft 5; the driving shaft of the rotation driving device 3 drives the transmission shaft 4 to rotate around its own axis through the gear set, and the transmission shaft 4 then drives the knob screen 2 to flip through the through hole. The end of the transmission shaft 4 away from the gear set is the driving end, and the axis of the transmission shaft 4 is the rotation axis.
[0035] In a preferred embodiment, a groove is provided on the rotating shaft 5, and the groove is used to accommodate a wire connected to the knob screen 2 to prevent the wire from winding around the rotating shaft 5 when the knob screen 2 is switched between the working state and the non-working state.
[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, the groove extends along the length direction of the rotating shaft 5 and is used to accommodate the wire connected to the knob screen 2 to prevent the wire from being entangled with the rotating shaft 5 during the turning process of the knob screen 2.

[0038] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in order to save installation space, the worm of the worm reducer extends in the second direction, and the rotation axis of the knob screen 2 extends in the first direction. By using mutually meshing bevel gears, the transmission direction of the worm is changed to drive the transmission shaft 4 to rotate.
[0039] In a preferred embodiment, a detection component is also included. The detection component is arranged on the first surface and is electrically connected to the control module. The detection component is used to detect whether the knob screen 2 is flipped into position and generate a flipping into position signal. The control module controls the rotation drive device 3 to brake according to the flipping into position signal.
[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, the detection component is used to detect whether the knob screen 2 is flipped into position, that is, whether the flip angle of the knob screen 2 reaches 180°. When the knob screen 2 is flipped 180°, the control module controls the rotation drive device 3 to stop rotating according to the flipping into position signal generated by the detection component.
[0041] In a preferred embodiment, the detection component includes a first switch 8 and a second switch 9, and the first switch 8 and the second switch 9 are respectively arranged on the first surface with the rotation axis as the axis of symmetry, and a limit plate 10 is provided on the knob screen 2; when the limit plate 10 abuts against the first switch 8, the knob screen is in a working state, and the first switch 8 generates a flipping into position signal; when the limit plate 10 abuts against the second switch 9, the knob screen 2 is in a non-working state, and the second switch 9 generates a flipping into position signal.
[0042] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the first switch 8 and the second switch 9 are arranged on the inner surface with the rotation axis as the axis of symmetry, and are located on both sides of the through hole. The limit plate 10 is arranged on one side of the knob screen 2 and is in the same plane as the rotation axis of the knob screen 2. When the knob screen 2 is flipped, the limit plate 10 is always located on the side of the mounting base 1 close to the inner surface; the first switch 8 and the second switch 9 both adopt the common key switches in the prior art. When the key is pressed, a flipping position signal can be generated and transmitted to the control module. The control module controls the rotation drive device 3 to stop rotating according to the flipping position signal. Initially, the limit plate 10 abuts against one of the switches. When the knob screen 2 is flipped 180°, the limit plate 10 abuts against the other switch. The limit plate 10 is used in conjunction with the two key switches to achieve the same flipping angle of the knob screen 2 each time, which is 180°.
[0043] In a preferred embodiment, protrusions are provided on both sides of the limiting plate 10 , and the two protrusions are used to abut against the first switch 8 and the second switch 9 respectively.
[0044] like Figure 4 As shown, the button triggering stroke of the first switch 8 and the second switch 9 is relatively short, and raised portions are provided at the positions on both sides of the limit plate 10 that contact the buttons, to ensure that the limit plate 10 can accurately trigger the first switch 8 and the second switch 9 during use.
[0045] In a preferred embodiment, one end of the knob screen 2 away from the display screen is covered with a cover 11 .
[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, in the present embodiment, the cover 11 is made of crystal material. In other embodiments of the present application, other materials can be used according to specific needs, such as a plastic material with a chrome-plated surface.

The cover 11 is used to maintain the overall aesthetics of the installation structure.
[0047] Working principle: When the knob screen 2 needs to be used, the rotation drive device 3 is started through the start button on the outer surface of the mounting seat 1, and the rotation drive device 3 drives the first bevel gear 6 to rotate around its axis. The first bevel gear 6 drives the transmission shaft 4 to rotate through the second bevel gear 7 meshing with it, and the third bevel gear 8 at the end of the transmission shaft 4 away from the second bevel gear 7 rotates accordingly, and drives the rotating shaft 5 through the fourth bevel gear 9 meshing with it, so that the rotating shaft 5 rotates around its own axis, and then drives the knob screen 2 arranged at one end of the rotating shaft 5 to flip through the through hole. When the limit plate 10 abuts against the first switch 8, the first switch 8 generates a flipping in place signal, and the control module controls according to the flipping in place signal The rotation drive device 3 is braked, and the display screen of the knob screen 2 extends out of the outer surface of the mounting base 1. At this time, the display screen of the knob screen 2 can be operated. When the operation is completed, the rotation drive device 3 is started again by the start button to reverse the rotation drive device 3, and then the rotating shaft 5 rotates in the opposite direction to the above. After the knob screen 2 is reversed 180° through the through hole, the limit plate 10 abuts against the second switch 9, and the second switch 9 generates a flipping in place signal. The control module controls the rotation drive device 3 to brake according to the flipping in place signal, and the display screen of the knob screen 2 extends out of the inner surface of the mounting base 1, and one end of the knob screen 2 covering the cover 11 extends out of the outer surface of the mounting base 1.
