[0079] The cover device 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application, exemplarily, when the connecting rod 412 rotates clockwise, the front cover 200 is switched from the closed state to the open state, and when the connecting rod 412 rotates counterclockwise, the front cover 200 is switched from the open state to the closed state. Since one end of the elastic member 800 abuts against the limit block 700, and the other end of the elastic member 800 extends into the slot 4123 of the connecting rod 412, the elastic member 800 is deformed when the connecting rod 412 rotates clockwise and provides resistance to the state switching of the front cover 200, so that the movement of the front cover 200 is smoother. When the front cover 200 is switched from the open state to the closed state, when the connecting rod 412 rotates counterclockwise, the elastic member 800 will simultaneously restore to its original state and provide power for the state switching of the front cover 200, so that the front cover 200 is more labor-saving when closing.

[0080] In some embodiments, the second portion 420 includes a second rotating member 421 and a driven rod 422. The second rotating member 421 is fixedly connected to the front cover 200.
