[0025] The waterproof display knob 100 can be used to be installed on an external fitness device, so as to control the external fitness device.

[0026] In the waterproof display knob 100 provided by the embodiment, the user can rotate the rotary cover 40, and the encoder 201 senses the rotation of the rotary cover 40. The encoder 201 outputs different signals to the circuit board 20 according to the rotation angle of the rotary cover 40. The circuit board 20 controls the display piece 50 on the rotary cover 40 to display the corresponding information picture according to the different signals of the encoder 201. The user can also press the rotary cover 40. When the rotary cover 40 is pressed, the cover shell 30, the encoder 201 and the circuit board 20 are all moved downward at the same time, so that the circuit board 20 can press and touch the contact switch 202, and the contact switch 202 is in contact. Then, the circuit board 20 can control the corresponding operation of the external fitness equipment according to the contact of the contact switch 202. Since the base 10 is movably connected with the cover shell 30, when the user presses the rotary cover 40, the cover shell 30 can be moved downward relative to the base 10 under the extrusion of the rotary cover 40. Since the cover shell 30 covers the circuit board 20 and is fixedly connected with the circuit board 20, when the rotary cover 40 is pressed, the cover shell 30 can move downward with the circuit board 20 to press the contact switch 202, so that the cover shell 30 fixedly connected with the circuit board 20 can effectively cover the circuit board 20 when the circuit board 20 can press the contact switch 202, so that the circuit board 20 cannot be contacted by water. Therefore, the waterproof of the circuit board 20 is effectively realized, and the practicality is good.

[0032] In implementation, when the user presses the rotating cap 40 again to move the rotating cap 40 upward to pop out, the contact switch 202 is used to lift the circuit board 20, the encoder 201 and the cap shell 30 upward to reset, so that the contact switch 202 is disconnected, and at this time, the two limiting hooks 302 on both sides of the cap shell 30 are respectively engaged with the limiting grooves 101 on both sides of the base 10 to limit the cap shell 30 from rising within a certain distance value. Through such a design, when the rotating cap 40 is moved upward to pop out, the rising distance of the cap shell 30 can be limited, so that the cap shell 30 does not come off the base 10.

[0033] In some embodiments, the cap shell 30 and the circuit board 20 are connected through a plurality of screws.

[0034] In implementation, since the cap shell 30 and the circuit board 20 are connected through a plurality of screws, the circuit board 20 and the cap shell 30 are fixed, so that when the rotating cap 40 is pressed, the cap shell 30 can be squeezed to move downward with the circuit board 20 to squeeze the contact switch 202.

[0035] In some embodiments, the side of the circuit board 20 is connected with a wire 203, and the wire 203 extends outside the base 10 through the base 10.

[0036] In implementation, the wire 203 on the side of the circuit board 20 is used to connect an external fitness device, so that the waterproof display knob 100 can communicate with the external fitness device to control the external fitness device.

[0037] In some embodiments, the base 10 is provided with screw holes 102 at four corners.
