[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the present invention provides a centralized control console in a cab, comprising: a housing assembly 1, an embedded assembly, and a display surface assembly 3. The housing assembly 1 is used to protect and house a steering instrument device 6. The embedded assembly is disposed within the housing assembly 1 to divide the interior space of the housing assembly 1. The display surface assembly 3 is disposed on the surface of the housing assembly 1 and can be mounted with a display 4 to visualize operation results.
[0038] The housing assembly 1 comprises a support frame, a top cover plate 11, two side cover plates 16, a back plate 12, and several bases 15. The support frame is a rectangular parallelepiped frame formed by welding connecting rods. It serves as the frame of the console and its dimensions can be customized according to actual needs. The top surface and two symmetrical side surfaces of the support frame are equipped with load-bearing structures to reinforce the support frame and ensure it can withstand impact conditions that may be encountered during ship navigation. The load-bearing structures include several support rods placed parallel to the support frame, with both ends of each support rod welded to the support frame. The top cover plate 11 covers the top surface of the supporting frame, and the cover plate can be fixed to the frame by welding; a plurality of first limiting grooves are provided on the surface of the top cover plate 11, and the size of the first limiting grooves matches the size of the operating panel 5 of the steering device 6, so that the steering device 6 can be embedded in the first limiting grooves of the top cover plate 11, and the plane of the operating panel 5 is on the same horizontal plane as the top cover plate 11, so that the table of the console is neat and clean, and it is also convenient for the operator to adjust the steering device 6. The two side cover plates 16 are respectively fixed on the two sides of the load-bearing structure in the supporting frame, and are used to protect the steering device 6 placed in the console. Figure 2 As shown, the back plate 12 is fixed to the back of the support frame and has a plurality of heat dissipation vents 14 on its surface to dissipate heat from the steering instrument equipment 6 inside the support frame. The plurality of bases 15 are evenly distributed on the support frame at the bottom of the console, and shock absorbers are provided between the bases 15 and the support frame to enhance the console's impact resistance and prevent the impact of ship turbulence on the steering instrument equipment 6 in the console.
[0039] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the back panel 12 has an inspection opening on its surface, and a number of evenly distributed first fixing holes are provided at the edge of the inspection opening. The housing assembly 1 also includes an inspection panel 13, which is removably mounted on the inspection opening and has louvers on its surface to facilitate heat dissipation of the steering instrument device 6. A second fixing hole matching the first fixing hole is provided at the edge of the inspection panel 13, and the inspection panel 13 can be mounted to the back panel 12 by passing a fixing member through the second fixing hole and the first fixing hole in sequence. The louvers can be cleaned by removing the inspection panel 1 to ensure the heat dissipation capacity of the console. The steering instrument device 6 placed in the console can also be inspected by removing the inspection panel 13 to avoid damage to the steering instrument device 6 caused by repeated movement during inspection.
[0040] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, a radiator is provided on the inner wall of the back plate 12. The radiator can be activated during use of the console to allow internal air and external air to circulate through the heat dissipation openings 14 on the back plate 12, thereby dissipating heat for the steering instrument device 6 disposed in the console.
[0041] In a preferred embodiment, the connecting rod is made of load-bearing steel, the top cover plate 11, the side cover plate 16, and the back plate 12 are all made of 2 mm thick cold-rolled steel plates, and the top cover plate 11, the two side cover plates 16, and the back plate 12 are all fixed to the supporting frame by internal full welding or spot welding to improve the impact resistance of the console.
[0042] In a preferred embodiment, the shell assembly 1 also includes a protective cover hinged to the supporting frame. The protective cover, two side covers, and a back panel 12 surround the sides of the supporting frame to provide protection for the steering instrument device 6 placed in the console; and the protective cover rotates open with the supporting frame as the axis, making it convenient for the operator to check or replace the steering instrument device 6 in the console as needed.
[0043] like Figure 3 、 Figure 4 As shown, the embedded components are arranged inside the support frame, including: a plurality of embedded fixing frames 21 and a plurality of support plates 22. Figure 4As shown, each of the embedded fixing brackets 21 is fixed to the side cover 16. Several evenly distributed first mounting holes 24 are provided along its edge, allowing the embedded fixing brackets 21 to be secured to the side cover 16 via the first mounting holes 24. Bosses 23 are provided along the length of each embedded fixing bracket 21. The support plate 22 is positioned between the symmetrically mounted embedded fixing brackets 21, with its ends resting on the two bosses 23. This allows the support plate 22 to be clamped between the symmetrically mounted embedded fixing brackets 21, thereby dividing the interior of the support frame into distinct areas. This allows for placement of different steering instrument devices 6 within the console, fully utilizing the internal space of the support frame.
[0044] In a preferred embodiment, slide rails are mounted on symmetrically distributed bosses 23 of the embedded mounting bracket 21, and a support plate 22 is provided between the two slide rails, allowing the steering control device 6 placed on the support plate 22 to be pulled out from within the console. The bosses 23 are provided with a plurality of evenly distributed second mounting holes 25, which are used to secure the slide rails to the embedded mounting bracket 21.
[0045] like Figure 5 As shown, the display surface assembly 3 includes: a mounting plate 33 and a mounting shaft 31. The mounting shaft 31 is fixed to the surface of the top cover plate 11, and support seats 32 are respectively provided at both ends thereof to provide support for the mounting plate 33. Positioning plates 34 are respectively provided at both ends of the bottom side of the mounting plate 33. The plane of the positioning plate 34 forms an angle of 90°-120° with the main plane of the mounting plate 33; and the two positioning plates 34 are hinged on the mounting shaft 31, so that the mounting plate 33 is fixed to the top cover plate 11 through the mounting shaft 31. The mounting plate 33 can rotate around the mounting shaft 31 to change the direction of the mounting plate 33; when the mounting plate 33 is flipped to a vertical state, the positioning plate 34 contacts the support seats 32 at both ends of the mounting shaft 31, so that the mounting plate 33 can maintain a vertical state; at the same time, a groove is provided on the surface of the mounting plate 33, and the display 4 of the steering instrument equipment 6 can be fixed to the mounting plate 33 through the groove, as shown Figure 1 As shown, the operation result of adjusting the steering instrument device 6 can be displayed.
[0046] Furthermore, for control consoles that do not require the display 4 of the steering instrument device 6, the installation method of the display panel assembly can be adjusted. In this case, the display panel assembly 3 also includes a fixing plate 35 and a display panel housing 36. The fixing plate 35 is fixed to the mounting plate 33, and its dimensions match those of the mounting plate 33. The bottom edge of the display panel housing 36 is fixed to the surface of the top cover plate 11, and its side walls are connected to the fixing plate 35, so that it, together with the fixing plate 35 and the top cover plate 11, forms a sealed housing. The surface of the display panel housing 36 is provided with a second limiting groove 37. The dimensions of the second limiting groove 37 are the same as the dimensions of the operating panel 5 of the steering instrument device 6, allowing the steering instrument device 6 to be embedded in the second limiting groove 37, with the operating panel 5 and the surface of the display panel housing 36 aligned on the same plane and the bottom end contacting the surface of the mounting shaft 31. At this time, the mounting plate 33, the fixing plate 35, and the display surface shell 36 are fixed together in sequence. Therefore, when the operating panel 5 of the steering instrument device 6 is embedded in the display surface assembly 3, the display surface assembly 3 cannot rotate on the top cover plate 11, which makes it convenient for the operator to operate the operating panel 5 of the steering instrument device 6 and prevents the steering instrument device 6 from colliding with the display surface assembly 3 due to the rotation of the display surface assembly 3.
[0047] Specifically, the mounting plate 33 , the fixing plate 35 and the display surface housing 36 are connected together by fixing parts, so as to facilitate the installation and maintenance of the steering instrument device 6 .
[0048] To sum up, the cab centralized control console described in the present invention adds a load-bearing structure on the supporting frame and adds a shock absorber on the base to improve the impact resistance of the console; by arranging an embedded component inside the supporting frame and opening a first limiting groove on the top cover plate, and the display surface component has different installation methods, the console is both beautiful and has better inclusiveness, convenience and applicability.
[0049] Although the present invention has been described in detail through the above preferred embodiments, it should be understood that the above description should not be considered as limiting the present invention. After reading the above description, various modifications and alternatives to the present invention will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be defined by the appended claims.
