Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of touch screen technology, and in particular to a vehicle-mounted touch screen with anti-static function. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of automotive electronics technology, in-vehicle touchscreens, as a crucial human-machine interface, have become an indispensable part of modern automobiles. From early simple button-type control panels to today's intelligent touch displays integrating multiple functions such as multimedia entertainment, navigation, and vehicle information management, in-vehicle touchscreens have undergone a significant transformation from single-function to multi-functional integration. In this process, their performance indicators, such as display quality, response speed, and touch sensitivity, have been significantly improved, while the requirements for environmental adaptability have also increased, especially in terms of electromagnetic compatibility, durability, and safety.
[0003] However, existing automotive touchscreens still have some shortcomings in practical applications. Particularly regarding anti-static measures, most current products rely primarily on surface coatings or simple built-in grounding designs to reduce the impact of static electricity buildup. While these methods can alleviate static electricity issues to some extent, they fail to fundamentally address the potential risks caused by electrostatic discharge. For example, in dry environments or when a user touches the screen rapidly, static electricity may accumulate and release instantaneously, leading to problems such as erroneous operations, image flickering, or even hardware damage. Furthermore, traditional solutions lack effective strategies to address the decline in anti-static effectiveness due to material aging over long-term use, which not only affects user experience but may also pose safety hazards. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a vehicle-mounted touchscreen with anti-static function, comprising a mounting housing, a metal frame embedded in the front side of the mounting housing, a touchscreen body embedded inside the metal frame, a plurality of first metal connectors fixedly connected to the upper inside of the metal frame, a first wire connected to the first metal connector, a plurality of second metal connectors fixedly connected to the lower inside of the metal frame, a second wire connected to the second metal connector, a bare conductive wire connecting the first wire and the second wire, and a metal diffuser plate and a negative ion generator installed inside the mounting housing.
[0005] The front side of the metal diffusion plate has a strip-shaped groove, and the conductive bare wire is engaged with the strip-shaped groove.
[0006] The metal diffusion plate is provided with a plurality of hexagonal through holes evenly distributed thereon, and the metal diffusion plate is provided with a plurality of first mounting holes.
[0007] The mounting housing has a second mounting hole, and the mounting housing is connected to the metal diffuser plate by bolts.
[0008] Rotary shaft connecting sleeves are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the mounting housing, and ventilation holes are provided on the front side of the mounting housing.
[0009] A semi-circular air guide tube is fixedly connected to the ventilation hole, and a ventilation strip is provided on the front side of the negative ion generator.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: by embedding a metal frame on the front side of the mounting housing and connecting the first metal connector and the first wire to the second metal connector and the second wire, the current is effectively guided and the static electricity is quickly released, thus achieving the beneficial effects of improving the stability of the touch screen and extending its service life.
[0011] The metal frame and the connection design between its internal first metal connector, first wire, second metal connector, and second wire constitute a complete electrostatic discharge path. This path ensures that static electricity can be rapidly transferred from the touchscreen surface to the diffuser plate, which acts as a ground wire, preventing screen misoperations or hardware damage caused by static electricity accumulation. Especially when a user quickly touches the screen in a dry environment, this structure can respond immediately and eliminate static electricity, greatly improving the operational stability of the touchscreen. Furthermore, this design effectively reduces the impact of static electricity on internal electronic components, decreasing the probability of hardware failure due to electrostatic discharge, thereby extending the overall lifespan of the automotive touchscreen.
[0012] As a key component in this application, the metal diffuser plate has grooves for contacting the bare conductive wires. This not only enhances the physical stability of the conductive path but also ensures the uniform distribution of negative ions on the metal diffuser plate, creating a favorable working environment for the negative ion generator and promoting the generation and release of negative ions. The negative ions generated by the generator can also neutralize positive charges in the air, further reducing static electricity and providing users with a more comfortable and safe operating environment.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] like Figure 1-5 The vehicle-mounted touchscreen with anti-static function shown includes a mounting housing 1, a metal frame 2 embedded in the front side of the mounting housing 1, a touchscreen body 3 embedded inside the metal frame 2, a plurality of first metal connectors 9 fixedly connected to the upper inside of the metal frame 2, a first wire 10 connected to the first metal connectors 9, a plurality of second metal connectors 11 fixedly connected to the lower inside of the metal frame 2, a second wire 12 connected to the second metal connectors 11, a conductive bare wire 13 connected between the first wire 10 and the second wire 12, and a metal diffuser plate 7 and a negative ion generator 8 installed inside the mounting housing 1.
[0022] A strip groove 14 is provided on the front side of the metal diffusion plate 7, and the conductive bare wire 13 is snapped into the strip groove 14.
[0023] The metal diffuser plate 7 has a number of hexagonal through holes 15 evenly distributed on it, and a number of first mounting holes 16 are also provided on it.
[0024] The mounting housing 1 has a second mounting hole 18, and the mounting housing 1 is connected to the metal diffuser plate 7 by bolts 5.
[0025] Rotary shaft connecting sleeves 6 are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the mounting housing 1, and ventilation holes 17 are provided on the front side of the mounting housing 1.
[0026] A semi-circular air guide tube 4 is fixedly connected to the ventilation hole 17, and a ventilation strip 19 is provided on the front side of the negative ion generator 8.
[0027] Working principle: When a user touches the touchscreen body 3, any static electricity that may be generated will first be captured by the metal frame 2. The first metal connector 9 on the upper side of the metal frame 2 is connected to the first wire 10, while the second metal connector 11 on the lower side is connected to the second wire 12. These two sets of wires are connected by a conductive bare wire 13, forming a complete static discharge path.
[0028] Static electricity is rapidly conducted to the metal diffuser plate 7 via this path, preventing its accumulation on the touchscreen surface and thus avoiding the risk of accidental screen touches or hardware damage. This process ensures immediate response and elimination of static electricity even when the screen is touched quickly in a dry environment, improving the operational stability of the touchscreen.
[0029] When negative ions come into contact with the metal diffuser plate 7, they further remove static electricity from the conductive bare wires 13 and the metal diffuser plate 7, ensuring that the device surface always maintains a low static electricity state. This process not only enhances the anti-static effect but also provides users with a more comfortable and safer operating environment.
[0030] The negative ion generator 8 inside the housing 1 continuously generates negative ions, which are released into the surrounding environment through the ventilation hole 17 and the semi-circular air duct 4. These negative ions can effectively neutralize the positive charge in the air in front of the touch screen, reducing static electricity.
[0031] As a key component of this invention, the metal diffuser plate 7 has a strip-shaped groove 14 on its front side for securing the bare conductive wire 13, ensuring the stability and uniform distribution of the current path. The hexagonal through-hole 15 design promotes air circulation, helping negative ions to be released more effectively through the metal diffuser plate 7 and improving the static neutralization efficiency.
[0032] The first mounting hole 16 allows the metal diffuser plate 7 to be securely fixed inside the mounting housing 1, ensuring the structural strength and reliability of the entire system. The mounting housing 1 is connected to the metal diffuser plate 7 by bolts 5, further enhancing the overall stability.
[0033] The mounting housing 1 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft connecting sleeve 6 on both sides, allowing the touch screen connecting shaft to be angled to suit the viewing needs of different users.
[0034] The above description of the embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core idea of this utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
