[0040] This application provides a central control panel that facilitates maintenance of the main unit inside the housing and effectively prevents damage to the connecting lines.

[0041] Figure 1 This is an exploded view of a central control panel provided in an embodiment of this application; Figure 2 for Figure 1 A magnified schematic diagram of the structure at point A; Figure 3 for Figure 1 A magnified schematic diagram of the structure at point B; Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the structure of a pin provided in an embodiment of this application; Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a sealing cap provided in an embodiment of this application; Figure 6 A cross-sectional structural diagram of a central control panel provided in an embodiment of this application; Figure 7 for Figure 6 A magnified schematic diagram of the structure at point C; Figure 8 This is a cross-sectional view of a central control panel from another angle, as provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0042] like Figures 1-8 As shown in the figure, this application embodiment provides a central control panel, including: a base 1, a host and a display screen 2.

[0043] The base 1 has a receiving cavity and a pick-up / drop-off port communicating with the receiving cavity.

[0044] The main unit is housed within the receiving cavity of base 1. The main unit includes a power board, motherboard, etc.

[0045] The display screen 2 is rotatably connected to the base 1, and the display screen 2 is electrically connected to the main unit via a connecting line. The display screen 2 includes a first state that covers the pick-up and put-out port and a second state that at least partially opens the pick-up and put-out port. The connecting line can be a flexible circuit board.

[0046] When the display screen 2 is in the second state, the host can be picked up and put in through the pick-and-place port.

[0047] In this application, the display screen 2 is rotatably connected to the base 1. When the host inside the base 1 needs to be maintained, the display screen 2 can be flipped to the second state, the host can be taken out for maintenance, and the maintained host can be put back into the receiving cavity. This facilitates the maintenance of the host inside the housing and can effectively avoid damage to the connecting lines. Normally, the display screen 2 is in the first state to ensure normal use.

[0048] In related technologies, since the display screen 2 is connected to the host in the base 1 through a flexible circuit board, the existing display screen 2 is generally fixed to the base 1 by a snap-fit. Currently, when the host needs to be maintained, tools are needed to separate the display screen 2 from the base 1, which is very inconvenient. Moreover, the flexible circuit board is easily damaged when disassembling the display screen 2.

[0049] In this embodiment, by rotatably connecting the display screen 2 to the base 1, the display screen 2 can switch between a first state and a second state. During normal operation, the display screen 2 is in the first state to ensure its normal use. When maintenance of the main unit is required, simply flip the display screen 2 to the second state to open the access port of the base 1, allowing the main unit inside to be accessed and removed for maintenance. This operation is convenient and avoids damage to the flexible circuit board during the disassembly of the display screen 2.

[0050] Optionally, the display screen 2 is rotatably connected to the base 1 with damping so that the display screen 2 can be stably maintained in the second state, and the display screen 2 will not obstruct operation when the host is being maintained.

[0051] like Figure 6 , 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the base 1 has a first latching portion 11 and the display screen 2 has a second latching portion 21, which can latch with the first latching portion 11 to keep the display screen 2 in a first state.

[0052] In this application, the first latching part 11 and the second latching part 21 are latched together to ensure that the display screen 2 can be stably maintained in the first state. Specifically, the latching part 11 and the second latching part 21 are used for temporary fixation of the display screen 2. When maintenance of the host is required, the display screen 2 can be flipped in the opening direction with a little force to separate the first latching part 11 and the second latching part 21. This is different from the current latching method between the display screen 2 and the base 1.

[0053] In one specific embodiment, the number of the first latching portion 11 and the second latching portion 21 is one set, because the display screen 2 also has a part that is rotatably connected to the base 1, so the display screen 2 can be fixed by one set of the first latching portion 11 and the second latching portion 21. Optionally, the number of the first latching portion 11 and the second latching portion 21 can also be multiple sets.

[0054] In some embodiments, the base 1 is provided with a first connecting portion 12 at one end along the first direction X, and a first snap-fit ​​portion 11 is provided at the end away from the first connecting portion 12; the display screen 2 is provided with a second connecting portion 22 at one end along the first direction X, the second connecting portion 22 is rotatably connected to the first connecting portion 12, and a second snap-fit ​​portion 21 is provided at the end away from the second connecting portion 22.

[0055] In this application, when the central control panel is installed in the usage scenario, the first direction X is vertical. The first connecting part 12 is located on the top of the base 1, and the second connecting part 22 is located on the top of the display screen 2, thereby allowing the display screen 2 to be flipped upwards and opened. The first latching part 11 is located at the bottom of the base 1, and the second latching part 21 is located at the bottom of the display screen 2. By moving the first latching part 11 away from the first connecting part 12 and the second latching part 21 away from the second connecting part 22, the stability of the display screen 2 in the first state is ensured.

[0056] Specifically, the display screen 2 can be rotatably connected to the first connecting part 12 of the base 1 via the second connecting part 22, so that the display screen 2 can switch between the first state and the second state.

[0057] In some embodiments, the central control panel further includes a rotating component 3, and the first connecting part 12 and the second connecting part 22 are rotatably connected by the rotating component 3.

[0058] In this application, the second connecting part 22 of the display screen 2 is connected to the first connecting part 12 of the base 1 through the rotating component 3, so that the display screen 2 can switch between the first state and the second state, which facilitates the assembly of the display screen 2 and the base 1 in the early stage.

[0059] In some embodiments, the rotating component 3 includes a pin 31, one of the first connecting portion 12 and the second connecting portion 22 being rotatably connected to the pin 31, and the other being rotatably or fixedly connected to the pin 31.

[0060] In one specific embodiment, the pin 31 is fixedly connected to the first connecting part 12, and the second connecting part 22 is rotatably connected to the pin 31, thereby enabling the display screen 2 to switch between a first state and a second state. In this case, a snap-fit ​​groove can be provided on the second connecting part 22, through which the pin 31 is snapped into place.

[0061] In another specific embodiment, pin 31 is rotatably connected to the first connecting part 12 and pin 31 is rotatably connected to the second connecting part 22, so that the display screen 2 can switch between the first state and the second state.

[0062] In another specific embodiment, pin 31 is fixedly connected to the second connecting part 22, and pin 31 is rotatably connected to the first connecting part 12, so that the display screen 2 can switch between the first state and the second state.

[0063] like Figure 2-3 As shown, in some embodiments, the first connecting part 12 includes a first fixing block 121, on which a first slot 1211 is provided; the second connecting part 22 is provided with an insertion hole 221 coaxial with the first slot 1211, and a pin 31 is inserted into the first slot 1211 and the insertion hole 221.

[0064] In this application, the insertion hole 221 on the second connecting part 22 is coaxially arranged with the first slot 1211 on the first fixing block 121. A part of the pin 31 is inserted into the first slot 1211 and another part is inserted into the insertion hole 221, so as to realize the rotatable connection between the first connecting part 12 and the second connecting part 22, thereby enabling the display screen 2 to switch between the first state and the second state.

[0065] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the first connecting part 12 further includes a second fixing block 122 spaced apart from the first fixing block 121. The second fixing block 122 is provided with a second slot 1221 coaxial with the first slot 1211. The second connecting part 22 is located between the first fixing block 121 and the second fixing block 122, and a portion of the pin 31 is inserted into the second slot 1221.

[0066] In this application, by setting a second fixing block 122, which is positioned opposite to the first fixing block 121, and forming an installation space between the first fixing block 121 and the second fixing block 122, the second connecting part 22 is located within the installation space, thereby limiting the second connecting part 22 along the axial direction of the pin 31, ensuring the accuracy of the position of the display screen 2, and preventing the display screen 2 from sliding and deviating along the axial direction of the pin 31.

[0067] Specifically, part of the pin 31 is also inserted into the second slot 1221, so that the first fixing block 121 supports one end of the pin 31 and the second fixing block 122 supports the other end of the pin 31, thereby ensuring the stability of the pin 31 and the stability of the display screen 2 installation.

[0068] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the first fixing block 121 is provided with a first sliding groove 1212 communicating with the first slot 1211 along its own axial direction, and a paddle 311 is provided on the outer periphery of the pin 31. The paddle 311 has a sliding part 3111 that can slide along the first sliding groove 1212. The rotating assembly 3 also includes an elastic member 32 disposed in the first slot 1211. The elastic member 32 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the pin 31, and the two ends of the elastic member 32 abut against the inner sidewall of the first slot 1211 and the paddle 311, respectively.

[0069] In this application, the first groove 1212 on the first fixing block 121 communicates with the first slot 1211. The first groove 1212 is disposed on the side wall of the first fixing block 121 and extends axially along the first groove 1212. During the initial installation of the display screen 2, the pin 31 is first slid into the first slot 1211. Then, the second connecting part 22 is positioned between the first fixing block 121 and the second fixing block 122. Loosening the pin 31 allows the lever 311 and the pin 31 to be reset under the elastic force of the elastic member 32, so that the end of the pin 31 passes through the insertion hole 221 and is inserted into the second slot 1221, thereby completing the installation of the display screen 2 and facilitating the assembly of the display screen 2 with the base 1. Similarly, when disassembling the display screen 2, the sliding paddle 311 drives the pin 31 to slide axially and allows the pin 31 to enter the first slot 1211. The pin 31 separates from the second slot 1221 and the insertion hole 221, and then the second connecting part 22 can be removed from between the first fixing block 121 and the second fixing block 122, thus completing the separation of the display screen 2 from the base 1.

[0070] Specifically, by providing the elastic element 32, the pin 31 can be effectively engaged with the insertion hole 221 of the second connecting part 22, preventing the pin 31 from automatically sliding into the first slot 1211 and separating from the insertion hole 221 and the second slot 1221, thereby ensuring the reliability of the display screen 2 installation. Furthermore, the pin 31 can slide axially, allowing it to be fully inserted into the first slot 1211, facilitating the assembly of the first connecting part 12 and the second connecting part 22.

[0071] In some embodiments, the paddle has a support portion 3112, the outer peripheral surface of which slides in engagement with the inner surface of the first slot 1211.

[0072] In this application, the inner diameter of the first slot 1211 is larger than the diameter of the pin 31. The elastic element 32 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the pin 31 and is located inside the first slot 1211. The support part 3112 of the lever slides with the inner surface of the first slot 1211, thereby positioning the lever 311 and the pin 31. This allows the pin 31 to remain coaxial with the first slot 1211. Moreover, the end of the pin 31 located in the first slot 1211 is positioned by the support part 3112 of the lever 311, which can prevent the pin 31 from being deflected, thereby ensuring the reliability of the connection between the first connecting part 12 and the second connecting part 22 and ensuring the reliability of the installation of the display screen 2.

[0073] In some embodiments, the end of the paddle 311 away from the elastic member 32 abuts against the second connecting portion 22.

[0074] In this application, one end of the paddle 311 abuts against the elastic member 32, and the other end abuts against the second connecting portion 22, thereby allowing the paddle 311 to limit the second connecting portion 22 along the axial direction of the pin 31. Specifically, normally the support portion 3112 of the paddle 311 is always located within the first slot 1211, while the sliding portion 3111 of the paddle 311 is always located within the first groove 1212.

[0075] In some embodiments, the second fixing block 122 is provided with a second slide groove 1222 communicating with the second slot 1221 along its own axial direction, and the slide groove 1222 is for the sliding part 3111 of the paddle 311 to slide through.

[0076] In this application, by providing a second sliding groove 1222 on the second fixing block 122, the sliding part 3111 of the paddle 311 slides through the second sliding groove 1222, and the supporting part 3112 of the paddle 311 slides through the second slot 1221. When the pin 31 is installed into the first slot 1211, it can be completed while the pin 31 and the first slot 1211 are kept coaxial, thereby improving the convenience of assembling the pin 31.

[0077] Specifically, the second slide groove 1222 can be arranged opposite to the first slide groove 1212, meaning that when the pin 31 is inserted, the lever 311 can slide through the second slot 1221 and be inserted into the first slot 1211 without rotating the pin 31. Alternatively, the second slide groove 1222 can have an angular difference from the first slide groove 1212. After sliding the lever through the second slot 1221, by rotating the pin 31 by a certain angle, the sliding part 3111 can be aligned with the first slide groove 1212, allowing the sliding part 3111 to slide into the first slide groove 1212.

[0078] The first slot 1211 is open at one end and closed at the other end to abut against the elastic member 32. The second slot 1221 is open at both ends to ensure that the paddle 311 can pass smoothly through the second slot 1221.

[0079] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the rotating assembly 3 further includes a sealing cap 33, which is inserted into the end of the second slot 1221 away from the first fixing block 121.

[0080] In this application, the sealing cover 33 allows insertion into the end of the second slot 1221 furthest from the first fixing block 121, thereby preventing external dust from entering the second slot 1221 and protecting the internal pin 31. Furthermore, the sealing cover 33 also serves a decorative purpose, concealing the second slot 1221 and the pin 31.

[0081] Specifically, once the display screen 2 is installed on the base 1, it is generally not necessary to disassemble the display screen 2 later. When it is necessary to maintain the main unit inside the base 1, it is only necessary to flip the display screen 2 to the second state.

[0082] In some embodiments, the sealing cap 33 is provided with a third slot 331 at one end facing the pin 31, the end of the pin 31 is inserted into the third slot 331, and the outer peripheral surface of the pin 31 is in contact with the inner surface of the third slot 331.

[0083] In this application, the diameter of the pin 31 is equal at different locations along the axial direction. To ensure that the lever 311 can pass smoothly through the second slot 1221, and because the inner diameter of the second slot 1221 is larger than the diameter of the pin 31, a third slot 331 is provided on the sealing cover 33. The end of the pin 31 can finally be inserted into the third slot 331, and the pin 31 and the third slot 331 are interference-fitted, thereby supporting and positioning the end of the pin 31. One end of the pin 31 is positioned with the first slot 1211 by the lever 311, and the other end is positioned with the third slot 331 by the pin 31. By positioning the pin 31 from both ends, the stability of the pin 31 is ensured, thus ensuring the reliability of the subsequent installation of the display screen 2.

[0084] Optionally, the pin 31 can also adopt different diameters. The portion inserted into the first slot 1211 has the first diameter, and the portion passing through the insertion hole 221 and the second slot 1221 has the second diameter. The second diameter is larger than the first diameter, so the end of the pin 31 can be directly positioned through the second slot 1221 without the need to set a third slot 331 on the sealing cover 33.

[0085] In some embodiments, two first fixing blocks 121 and two second fixing blocks 122 are provided, and two second connecting parts 22 are provided. One second connecting part 22 is rotatably disposed between one first fixing block 121 and one second fixing block 122 by means of a pin 31, and the other second connecting part 22 is rotatably disposed between another first fixing block 121 and another second fixing block 122 by means of another pin 31. The two pins 31 are coaxially disposed.

[0086] In this application, by providing two second connecting parts 22, which are rotatably connected to two first connecting parts 12 via two rotating components 3 respectively, and the pins 31 of the two rotating components 3 are coaxially arranged, the positioning of the display screen 2 can be further improved, the support area of ​​the display screen 2 can be increased, and the reliability of the installation of the display screen 2 can be further improved.

[0087] Specifically, two first fixing blocks 121 are connected, and two second fixing blocks 122 are located on the outside of the two first fixing blocks 121 respectively, forming an installation space between each first fixing block 121 and its corresponding second fixing block 122. Two second connecting parts 22 are located in the two installation spaces respectively, and the first connecting parts 12 and the second connecting parts 22 are rotatably connected by the rotating component 3.

[0088] The central control panel is rotatably connected to the base 1 via the display screen 2. When the main unit inside the base 1 needs to be maintained, the display screen 2 can be flipped to the second state, the main unit can be taken out for maintenance, and the maintained main unit can be put back into the receiving cavity. This facilitates the maintenance of the main unit inside the housing and can effectively avoid damage to the connecting lines. Normally, the display screen 2 is in the first state to ensure normal use.

[0089] Specifically, the base 1 of the central control panel in this application uses an 86 box, and the display screen 2 uses a four-inch central control screen to control the smart home system.
