[0046] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 , 2 , the cap body 02 comprises a cap 22 and a shaft 23 extending from the center of the cap 22 for connecting the rotating member, and the decorative part 21 is arranged on the upper surface of the cap 22.

[0047] The upper surface of the cap 22 further comprises a protrusion 24 protruding upward relative to the decorative part 21, and the decorative part 21 is annularly arranged on the outer periphery of the protrusion 24.

[0048] When the transparent cover 01 is mounted on the cap body 02, the protrusion 24 abuts against the inner surface of the transparent cover 01.

[0049] Specifically, the cap 22 is similar to an umbrella, and the edge thereof is curved toward the shaft 23 side. The shaft 23 and the cap 22 are integrally formed, and the shaft 23 is connected with the rotating member downward, and the user rotates the cap 22 to rotate the rotating button. The upper surface of the cap 22 serves as the appearance surface after the cap body 02 is mounted. The decorative part 21 is arranged on the upper surface of the cap 22, and the protrusion 24 is further arranged in the middle of the decorative part 21. The protrusion 24 protrudes upward relative to the decorative part 21 and abuts against the inner surface of the transparent cover 01, thereby forming a spacing space above the decorative part 21.

[0050] In the embodiment, the decorative part 21 is arranged in an annular shape, and the protrusion 24 arranged in the center thereof abuts against the transparent cover 01 to form the spacing space. Meanwhile, the arrangement of the protrusion 24 makes the space above the decorative part 21 more obvious, and the appearance effect is better.

[0051] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 2 , 3 , the edge of the cap 22 is provided with a mounting retainer 25, and a plurality of mounting grooves 251 are arranged on the circumference of the mounting retainer 25.

[0052] The inner edge of the transparent cover 01 is provided with a plurality of mounting blocks 11 extending radially inward, and each mounting block 11 is correspondingly arranged in one mounting groove 251.

[0053] In the embodiment, the mounting retainer 25 extends axially upward from the edge of the cap 22, the mounting block 11 extends radially inward from the transparent cover 01, and the inner diameter of the transparent cover 01 is equal to the outer diameter of the mounting retainer 25. When the transparent cover 01 is mounted on the cap 22, the inner ring of the transparent cover 01 is matchedly arranged outside the mounting retainer 25, and the mounting block 11 is clamped into the corresponding mounting groove 251 to fix the transparent cover 01 and the cap body 02.

[0054] Specifically, as shown in Figure 2As shown, the mounting groove 251 comprises first vertical grooves 2511 and second vertical grooves 2512 arranged alternately, and horizontal grooves 2513 connecting the first vertical grooves 2511 and the second vertical grooves 2512, the first vertical grooves 2511 are arranged close to the upper edge of the mounting collar 25, and the second vertical grooves 2512 are arranged close to the lower edge of the mounting collar 25.

[0055] The width of the first vertical grooves 2511 is greater than or equal to the width of the mounting block 11, the depth of the horizontal grooves 2513 is greater than or equal to the thickness of the mounting block 11, and the width of the second vertical grooves 2512 is equal to the width of the mounting block 11.

[0056] The first vertical grooves 2511 and the second vertical grooves 2512 are arranged along the axial direction of the mounting collar 25, the horizontal grooves 2513 are arranged along the circumferential direction of the mounting collar 25, the groove bottom of the first vertical grooves 2511 is the groove bottom of the horizontal grooves 2513, and the groove top of the second vertical grooves 2511 is the groove top of the horizontal grooves 2513.

[0057] When the mounting block 11 is clamped into the mounting groove 251, first, the transparent cover 01 is installed downward along the axial direction, so that the mounting block 11 is installed to the bottom of the first vertical grooves 2511, then the transparent cover 01 is rotated along the circumferential direction, at this time the mounting block 11 is rotated along the horizontal grooves 2513 to the top of the second vertical grooves 2512, and then the transparent cover 01 is installed downward along the axial direction again, so that the mounting block 11 is installed to the bottom of the second vertical grooves 2512.

[0058] The mounting groove 251 is arranged as a structure connected by two vertical grooves and one horizontal groove in the embodiment of the application, which can improve the installation stability of the transparent cover 01, avoid the transparent cover 01 being removed when the upper and lower pressing cap structure is pressed, and at the same time, the installation mode of the transparent cover 01 is relatively simple, which is convenient for users to disassemble and assemble.

[0059] Preferably, the depth of the second vertical grooves 2512 is greater than the depth of the first vertical grooves 2511, if the transparent cover 01 is accidentally lifted a certain distance along the axial direction, due to the deep depth of the second vertical grooves 2512, the transparent cover 01 will not be removed immediately when the cap structure is rotated, so as to further improve the installation stability of the transparent cover 01.

[0060] In one of the embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 The edge of the cap body 22 is further provided with a sealing ring 26, the sealing ring 26 is sleeved on the lower edge of the mounting collar 25, and the mounting block 11 is pressed against the sealing ring 26 when being installed to the bottom of the mounting groove 251.

[0061] The sealing ring 26 is arranged at the lower edge of the cap body 22 to seal the gap between the transparent cover 01 and the mounting ring 25, so as to improve the waterproof effect of the rotary cap structure. Specifically, a radially protruding lower ring can be arranged at the lower edge of the mounting ring 25, and the sealing ring 26 is arranged on the lower ring. Preferably, the sealing ring 26 can be provided with an inner extension block corresponding to the mounting groove 251, and the inner extension block extends into the bottom of the mounting groove 251, so as to improve the sealing effect.

[0062] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 , the rotary cap structure further comprises a base 03 arranged below the rotary cap body 02;

[0063] The base 03 is provided with a light emitting element 04, and the decorative part 21 is made of a light-transmitting material. The light emitted by the light emitting element 04 is irradiated onto the decorative part 21 and is emitted through the transparent cover 01.

[0064] Specifically, the base 03 is used for mounting the light emitting element 04, which can be a lamp strip or a plurality of LED lamp beads. The center of the base 03 is provided with a through hole 31, and the shaft 23 of the rotary cap body 02 passes through the through hole 31 and is connected to a rotating element. The cap body 22 covers the light emitting element 04, and the light emitting element 04 irradiates light to the decorative part 21, so that the appearance effect of the decorative part 21 is better.

[0065] The light emitting element 04 is connected to the circuit structure of the rotary button, and the light emitting element 04 can switch different light colors and light modes according to different states of the rotary button.

[0066] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 , 4 , the light emitting element 04 is arranged in a ring shape, and the shaft 23 is provided with a folding light blocking element 05. When the rotary cap body 02 rotates, the folding light blocking element 05 is folded or unfolded to change the shielding angle of the folding light blocking element 05.

[0067] The folding light blocking element 05 is arranged on the shaft 23 of the rotary cap body 02. When the rotary cap body 02 rotates, the folding light blocking element 05 changes the folding area along the circumference, so that the light emitting area of the decorative part 21 changes. The user can intuitively see the current state of the rotary button through the light emitting area of the decorative part 21. This structure is more suitable for the case where the rotary button is used to control gears. The larger the light emitting area of the decorative part 21, the larger the corresponding gear.

[0068] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 4 , 5 , 6, the folding light blocking element 05 comprises a plurality of light blocking blades 51 arranged along the axial direction of the shaft 23. The uppermost light blocking blade 51 is fixedly connected to the shaft 23, and the other light blocking blades 51 are rotatably arranged on the shaft 23.

[0069] The light-blocking fan blade 51 is provided with a fan-shaped light shield 511, one side of the fan-shaped light shield 511 is provided with a first limiting strip 5111 extending upward, and the other side is provided with a second limiting strip 5112 extending upward and downward. When the folding light-blocking piece 05 is completely unfolded, the first limiting strip 5111 is attached to the first limiting strip 5111 of the adjacent fan-shaped light shield 511.

[0070] Specifically, the light-blocking fan blade 51 includes a sleeve ring 512 and a fan-shaped light shield 511, the sleeve ring 512 is sleeved on the shaft body 23, and the fan-shaped light shield 511 is connected outside the sleeve ring 512. The sleeve ring 512 of the uppermost light-blocking fan blade 51 is fixedly connected with the shaft body 23, and the sleeve ring 512 of the lower light-blocking fan blade 51 is rotatably sleeved on the shaft body 23. Referring to Figure 4 The uppermost light-blocking fan blade 51 rotates clockwise synchronously with the cap body 02, when the uppermost light-blocking fan blade 51 rotates to the upper side of the second light-blocking fan blade 51, the second limiting strip 5112 of the uppermost light-blocking fan blade 51 pushes the first limiting strip 5111 of the third light-blocking fan blade 51, thereby driving the second limiting strip 5112 of the second light-blocking fan blade 51 to rotate, so that the second light-blocking fan blade 51 gradually rotates to the upper side of the third light-blocking fan blade 51, and the same is true for the subsequent light-blocking fan blades, until all the light-blocking fan blades 51 are arranged in the axial direction. At this time, the light-transmitting area of the folding light-blocking piece 05 is the largest. When the cap body 02 rotates counterclockwise, the unfolding process of the light-blocking fan blade 51 is also realized by the limiting of the first limiting strip 5111 and the second limiting strip 5112, which will not be described here.

[0071] Optionally, the number of light-blocking fan blades 51 can be set according to the gear of the rotating button, and the angle of each light-blocking fan blade 51 is equal to the rotation angle of one gear. Specifically, the more the number of light-blocking fan blades, the smaller the angle of each light-blocking fan blade 51, and the larger the maximum light-transmitting area of the folding light-blocking piece 05. Therefore, the more the number of light-blocking fan blades 51, the larger the light-transmitting area at the maximum gear, and the better the light-emitting effect.

[0072] According to the needs, the above technical solutions can be combined to achieve the best technical effect.
