[0029] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] This utility model provides a foldable display and control console, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a display control console body and a display control folding unit. The display control console body includes a support leg 1 and a housing 2 set on the support leg 1. The display control folding unit includes a display screen 5 mounting bracket and a display screen 5 installed in the display screen 5 mounting bracket.

[0031] The upper surface of the housing 2 is an open structure. The upper surface of the housing 2 is provided with a main table 10. The display screen 5 mounting bracket is provided with a folding screen table 7. The main table 10 has an opening that matches the folding screen table 7. The bottom of the display screen 5 mounting bracket is hinged to the upper surface of the housing 2. The side wall of the display screen 5 mounting bracket is also connected to a keyboard 4 mounting bracket and a gas support 9 connected to the housing 2. The keyboard 4 mounting bracket is provided with a keyboard 4. The housing 2 also has a support component that supports the keyboard 4 mounting bracket. The top of the display screen 5 mounting bracket is connected to the housing 2 through a locking structure.

[0032] Specifically, a pin seat 24 is provided inside the housing 2, the cylinder of the gas support 9 is connected to the pin seat 24, the push rod of the gas support 9 is connected to the side wall of the display mounting bracket 8, and when the display mounting bracket 8 is located inside the housing 2, the push rod of the gas support 9 is in a retracted state.

[0033] It should be noted that the locking structure folds the display mounting bracket 8 and the keyboard mounting bracket 11 inside the housing 2, and the push rod of the gas support 9 is in a retracted state to enter the workbench state. After the locking structure is opened, the push rod of the gas support 9 extends and rotates the display mounting bracket 8 along the hinge 23, causing the keyboard mounting bracket 11 to fold outward and enter the display console state. This quickly realizes the conversion between the display console and the workbench, expands the function of the conventional display console, improves space utilization, and also makes it easier for operators to adjust the angle of the display screen, thereby improving the human-machine comfort of the operators.

[0034] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, a connecting arm 25 is provided on the side wall of the display mounting bracket 8. The end of the keyboard mounting bracket 11 is connected to the connecting arm 25 via a pin 26. That is, the connecting arm 25 connects the display mounting bracket 8 and the keyboard mounting bracket 11, so that the keyboard mounting bracket 11 moves with the display mounting bracket 8. At the same time, the keyboard mounting bracket 11 can rotate along the pin 26 to unscrew the keyboard mounting bracket 11 out of the housing and into the... Figure 3 The maintenance status is shown below;

[0035] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, a flap 17 is also hinged to the side wall of the keyboard mounting bracket 11 via a hinge 21. The hinge 21 is located on one side of the flap 17 and is connected to the hook on the keyboard mounting bracket 11 via a tension spring 20. The end of the flap 17 near the connecting arm 25 has an arc-shaped structure. When the display mounting bracket 8 is located inside the housing 2, the flap 17 extends vertically, and the arc-shaped structure of the flap 17 is located between the connecting arm 25 and the keyboard mounting bracket 11. The tension spring 20 is in a stretched state. When the keyboard mounting bracket 11 is flush with the opening of the main table 10, the flap 17 extends horizontally, and the arc-shaped structure of the flap 17 is offset from the connecting arm 25.

[0036] It should be noted that, in cases such as Figure 1 In the display console state shown, as the connecting arm 25 and the keyboard mounting bracket 11 rotate, that is, when the keyboard mounting bracket 11 is unfolded, the arc-shaped structure at the end of the flip plate 17 is offset from the connecting arm 25, and the connecting arm 25 rotates downward toward the flip plate 17 until the connecting arm 25 is completely below the flip plate 17. At this time, the flip plate 17 automatically flips flat under the tension of the tension spring 20, forming a whole with the opening of the housing 2, thus preventing debris from falling into the housing 2 during use. When switching to the control console state as shown... Figure 2 When the workbench is in the state shown, as the keyboard mounting bracket 11 and the display mounting bracket 8 are folded inside the housing 2, as the connecting arm 25 rotates, the connecting arm 25 located below the flip plate 17 gradually contacts the arc-shaped structure of the flip plate 17 and pushes it from a horizontally extending state to a vertically extending state, causing the flip plate 17 to automatically flip up. Then, the arc-shaped structure at the end of the flip plate 17 is located inside the connecting arm 25. Due to the obstruction of the connecting arm 25, the tension spring 20 cannot fold it along the hinge 21.

[0037] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the support is an arc-shaped slide 22 set inside the box. The bottom of the keyboard mounting bracket 11 is provided with a roller 19. The slide 22 and the roller 19 move in the same direction. That is, the slide 22 set inside the box supports the keyboard mounting bracket 11 folded inside the box 2 and guides it during the unfolding process.

[0038] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the locking structure includes a lock body 3 disposed on the side wall of the housing 2 and a lock seat 6 disposed on the display screen mounting bracket 8. The lock seat 6 and the lock body 3 cooperate with each other to form a locking structure. When the lock seat 6 is connected to the lock body 3, it restricts the keyboard mounting bracket 11 and the display screen mounting bracket 8 within the housing 2.

[0039] In one embodiment, a rubber support column 13 is also provided on the inner wall of the housing 2. The rubber support column 13 is used to contact the surface of the display screen 5 when the display screen mounting bracket 8 is folded inside the housing 2.

[0040] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, a mouse storage box 12 is also provided on the keyboard mounting bracket 11;

[0041] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, a fixed seat 14 is also provided inside the housing 2. A limit screw 15 is installed on the fixed seat 14. A limit block 16 is provided at the end of the cylinder of the gas support 9 away from the push rod. The limit screw 15 extends horizontally on the fixed seat 14. That is, by adjusting the extension length of the limit screw 15, the opening angle of the display screen mounting bracket 8 can be finely adjusted by using the cooperation of the limit block 16 and the limit screw 15 to ensure that the opening angle of the display screen 5 is the best viewing angle for the operator.

[0042] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the support leg 1 is also provided with multiple weight-reducing waist holes;
