[0030] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2The utility model discloses a gravity rotation timer according to an embodiment of the present invention, including a housing 10 , a display module 20 , a counterweight 30 , a circuit board 40 and a rechargeable battery 50 .

[0031] The display module 20, the counterweight 30, the circuit board 40 and the rechargeable battery 50 are all arranged in the outer shell 10. The display module 20 is opposite to one end of the outer shell 10. The display module 20 and the rechargeable battery 50 are both electrically connected to the circuit board 40. The counterweight 30 is stacked on one side of the display module 20. The display module 20 drives the counterweight 30 to rotate relative to the outer shell 10 about the first rotation axis, and the center of gravity of the assembly composed of the counterweight 30 and the display module 20 does not fall on the first rotation axis.

[0032] The gravity rotation timer of the present invention includes a display module 20 and a counterweight 30. The display module 20 is facing one end of the outer shell 10, and the center of gravity of the assembly composed of the counterweight 30 and the display module 20 does not fall on the first rotation axis. Therefore, when the gravity rotation timer of the present invention is flipped, the display module 20 set at the end facing the outer shell 10 rotates relative to the outer shell 10, so that the display module 20 always remains facing the user, thereby improving the user experience.

[0033] In conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in this embodiment, the display module 20 is a display screen assembly. In other embodiments, the display module 20 can also be other types of display devices.

[0034] It should be pointed out that in order to achieve convenient use, the gravity rotation timer also includes a charging interface 42 electrically connected to the circuit board 40 .

[0035] With reference to the drawings, in this embodiment, the housing 10 includes a main shell 12 having a receiving cavity 101 and a transparent cover plate 14 covering the receiving cavity 101 .

[0036] The transparent cover plate 14 is located at one end of the housing 10 , so that the transparent cover plate 14 is stacked on the other side of the display module 20 .

[0037] In other embodiments, the housing 10 may also adopt other structures.

[0038] Preferably, in this embodiment, the housing 10 is in the shape of a polygonal column.

[0039] Combination Figure 3 Preferably, in this embodiment, the gravity rotation timer also includes a hollow tube 60, a conductive member 70 and a conductive ring.

[0040] The hollow tube 60 is disposed on one side of the display module 20 , the conductive member 70 is disposed on one end of the hollow tube 60 away from the display module 20 , and the display module 20 , the conductive member 70 , the conductive ring and the circuit board 40 are electrically connected in sequence.

[0041] When the display module 20 rotates relative to the housing 10 about the first rotation axis, the hollow tube 60 and the conductive member 70 are driven to rotate relative to the housing 10 , and the conductive member 70 slides along the conductive ring.

[0042] With such a structural arrangement, when the display module 20 rotates relative to the housing 10 , the electrical connection between the display module 20 and the circuit board 40 can still be ensured.

[0043] Specifically, the conductive member 70 is electrically connected to the display module 20 through a wire, that is, the wire passes through the hollow tube 60 and then electrically connects the conductive member 70 and the display module 20 .

[0044] More preferably, in this embodiment, the conductive member 70 may be a spring or spring probe connector, and in this case, the conductive member 70 elastically abuts against the conductive ring.

[0045] Specifically, in this embodiment, the conductive member 70 is a pogo pin connector.

[0046] Generally speaking, the conductive ring can be a metal ring.

[0047] In this embodiment, there are four conductive members 26 and the conductive rings may be two or four circular rings.

[0048] Preferably, in this embodiment, the gravity rotation timer also includes a first mounting bracket 80 connected to the housing 10 , the first mounting bracket 80 is stacked at intervals on the side of the counterweight 30 away from the display module 20 , and the rechargeable battery 50 is arranged on the side of the first mounting bracket 80 away from the counterweight 30 .

[0049] The rechargeable battery 50 is separated from structures such as the counterweight 30 and the display module 20 by the first mounting bracket 80 , so that when the counterweight 30 and the display module 20 rotate relative to the housing 10 , interference with the rotation by the rechargeable battery 80 can be avoided.

[0050] More preferably, in this embodiment, the first mounting bracket 80 , the rechargeable battery 50 and the circuit board 40 are electrically connected in sequence, and the conductive ring is arranged on a side of the first mounting bracket 80 away from the circuit board 40 .

[0051] In other embodiments, the circuit board 40 , the first mounting bracket 80 and the rechargeable battery 50 may be electrically connected in sequence. In this case, the conductive ring is disposed on a side of the circuit board 40 away from the rechargeable battery 50 .

[0052] Preferably, in this embodiment, the gravity rotation timer flips about the second rotation axis, and the angle between the first rotation axis and the second rotation axis is 0° to 30°.

[0053] It should be noted that when there is a small angle (0° to 30°) between the first rotation axis and the second rotation axis, when the gravity rotation timer is turned over, the display module 20 will still rotate relative to the housing 10 .

[0054] More preferably, the gravity rotation timer flips over with the second rotation axis, and the first rotation axis and the second rotation axis are parallel or coincident.

[0055] In conjunction with the drawings, preferably, in this embodiment, the gravity rotation timer further includes a bearing 90 disposed in the housing 10, and the bearing includes an outer ring and an inner ring that are rotatably connected.

[0056] The outer ring is connected to the housing 10, and the display module 20, the inner ring and the counterweight 30 are connected in sequence.

[0057] In other embodiments, other structures may also be used to achieve the rotational connection between the display module 20 and the housing 10 .

[0058] Specifically, the outer ring can be connected to the housing 10 through a mounting bracket.

[0059] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
