Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of remote control technology, and in particular to a 360° adjustable infrared transmitting remote control. Background Technology
[0002] A remote control is a device used to control electrical appliances or other equipment, typically by sending signals through buttons or other control methods. It consists of the remote control unit and a receiver. The receiver converts the signals into electrical signals, and the remote control unit uses these signals to control the operation of the device. Common remote controls include infrared remote controls, radio frequency (RF) remote controls, and optical remote controls. Infrared remote controls are the most commonly used type, using infrared light as the signal; RF remote controls use radio frequency bands to send signals; and optical remote controls send signals using visible light. The use of remote controls has greatly facilitated people's lives and reduced the inconvenience of manual operation.
[0003] In existing remote controls, users need to hold the remote control, raise it, and point it at the controlled device. However, this method is inconvenient and often results in misalignment of the remote control signal, affecting the user experience. In addition, the infrared transmitter of the remote control can only emit signals in a fixed range (60°), which means that the remote control can only connect to the controlled device within a small area, thus greatly limiting the control angle of the remote control. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a new remote control structure to solve the shortcomings caused by the fixed infrared emission angle. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a 360° adjustable infrared transmitter remote control with an adjustable transmission angle and good operation convenience.
[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention can be implemented using the following technical solutions:
[0006] A 360° adjustable infrared transmitter remote controller includes a remote controller body, a rotating ball, and a transmitter head. An movable space is provided at one end of the remote controller body, and fixed shafts are respectively provided on both sides of the movable space. Damping components are fitted onto the fixed shafts. The rotating ball is located within the movable space, and its two sides are rotatably connected to the damping components. The transmitter head is mounted on the rotating ball. By rotating the rotating ball, the emission angle of the transmitter head can be adjusted. The damping components provide damping for the rotating ball during rotation.
[0007] In one embodiment, the fixed shaft is provided with at least one protruding limiting rib, and the inner side of the damping member is provided with a limiting groove corresponding to the limiting rib. When the damping member is sleeved on the fixed shaft, the limiting rib will be placed in the limiting groove so that the damping member is limited and connected to the fixed shaft.
[0008] In one embodiment, an annular positioning protrusion is provided on the outer side of the damping component, and a rotating hole is provided on both sides of the rotating ball, and a positioning groove corresponding to the positioning protrusion is provided in the rotating hole. The positioning protrusion is inserted into the positioning groove so that the rotating ball is connected to the damping component.
[0009] In one embodiment, the remote control body includes a front shell and a bottom shell, which cover each other to form a receiving cavity, and a PCB board is disposed in the receiving cavity, and the transmitter head is electrically connected to the PCB board.
[0010] In one embodiment, the rotating ball includes a rotating upper shell and a rotating lower shell, which cover each other. A connecting post is provided in the middle of the rotating upper shell, and a connecting hole is provided in the middle of the rotating lower shell. A screw is inserted into the connecting hole and threadedly connected to the connecting post, thereby connecting the rotating upper shell and the rotating lower shell.
[0011] In one embodiment, the front shell and the bottom shell are connected by a snap-fit method, a screw fixing method, or a laser welding method.
[0012] In one embodiment, the transmitter is connected to the PCB board via a wire, with the transmitter welded to one end of the wire and the other end passing through a fixed shaft and welded to the PCB board.
[0013] In one embodiment, the surface of the rotating sphere is provided with a plurality of planar portions.
[0014] In one embodiment, the damping element is made of silicone. Beneficial effects
[0015] This utility model relates to a 360° adjustable infrared transmitter remote control.

Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a full understanding of this utility model. However, this utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0028] It should be noted that when an element is said to be "fixed to" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element. When an element is said to be "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. Conversely, when an element is said to be "directly on" another element, there is no intervening element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this document are for illustrative purposes only.
[0029] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
[0030] Please see Figures 1 to 4 A 360° adjustable infrared transmitter remote controller includes a remote controller body 100, a rotating ball 200, and a transmitter head 300. An active space 110 is provided at one end of the remote controller body 100, and fixed shafts 120 are respectively provided on both sides of the active space 110. Damping elements 400 are sleeved on the fixed shafts 120. The rotating ball 200 is located within the active space 110, and its two sides are rotatably connected to the damping elements 400. The transmitter head 300 is mounted on the rotating ball 200. By rotating the rotating ball 200, the emission angle of the transmitter head 300 can be adjusted. When the rotating ball 200 rotates, the damping elements 400 provide damping for the rotating ball 200.
[0031] Specifically, in this embodiment, when using the remote control, the user can move the rotating ball 200 at the end of the remote control body 100, causing the rotating ball 200 to rotate within the activity space 110. Since the transmitter 300 is mounted on the rotating ball 200, the rotating ball 200 will rotate along with the transmitter 300, thereby adjusting and controlling the infrared emission angle of the remote control, making the remote control convenient and simple to use. Furthermore, when the rotating ball 200 rotates, the damping component 400 on the fixed shaft 120 can provide damping to prevent the rotating ball 200 from rotating arbitrarily, thus making the structure of the remote control reasonable. In addition, the remote control can adjust the emission angle of the transmitter 300 according to the position requirements, thereby enabling the remote control to have a 360° wide range of control, making it more convenient for users to use the remote control, thereby improving the ease of operation of the remote control.
[0032] In addition, to facilitate the user's operation of the rotating ball 200, several flat portions 260 are provided on the surface of the rotating ball 200. The flat portions 260 allow the user to easily move the ball with their fingers, making it more convenient and simple for the user to operate the remote control.
[0033] Please see Figures 4 to 6To achieve the damping effect of the damping element 400, in this embodiment, the damping element 400 is made of silicone material and is a damping silicone ring. Because silicone material has good elasticity, it can deform and store energy when subjected to external force, and its internal micro-pore structure can absorb some energy, thus ensuring the damping effect of the damping element. Simultaneously, to prevent the damping element 400 from rotating along with the rotating ball 200 when the ball 200 is turned, at least one protruding limiting rib 121 is provided on the fixed shaft 120, and the damping element 400... The inner side of the 00 is provided with a limiting groove 410 corresponding to the limiting rib 121. When the damping member 400 is sleeved on the fixed shaft 120, the limiting rib 121 will be placed in the limiting groove 410 so that the damping member 400 is limited to the fixed shaft 120. The damping member 400 is limited on the fixed shaft 120 by the limiting rib 121 and the limiting groove 410, so that the damping member 400 will not rotate with the rotating ball 200 when it rotates. This allows the damping member 400 to provide damping for the rotating ball 200 when it rotates and ensures the damping effect of the rotating ball 200.
[0034] Furthermore, to prevent the rotating ball 200 from disengaging from the damping element 400 during rotation, an annular positioning protrusion 420 is provided on the outer side of the damping element 400. Rotation holes 210 are respectively provided on both sides of the rotating ball 200, and positioning grooves 220 corresponding to the positioning protrusion 420 are provided in the rotation holes 210. By inserting the positioning protrusion 420 into the positioning groove 220, the rotating ball 200 and the damping element 400 can be positioned, thereby preventing the rotating ball 200 from disengaging from the damping element 400.
[0035] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 To facilitate the assembly of the remote control, the main body 100 of the remote control in this embodiment includes a front shell 130 and a bottom shell 140. The front shell 130 and the bottom shell 140 cover each other and form a receiving cavity. A PCB board 150 is disposed in the receiving cavity. The front shell 130 and the bottom shell 140 can be connected by snap-fit, screw fixing or laser welding. The transmitter 300 on the rotating ball 200 can be electrically connected to the PCB board 150 through a wire 160. Specifically, one end of the wire 160 can be soldered to the transmitter 300, and the other end of the wire 160 can be inserted from the fixed shaft 120 and soldered to the PCB board 150.
[0036] Meanwhile, the rotating ball 200 includes a rotating upper shell 230 and a rotating lower shell 240, which cover each other. A connecting post 231 is provided in the middle of the rotating upper shell 230, and a connecting hole 241 is provided in the middle of the rotating lower shell 240. A screw 250 is inserted into the connecting hole 241 and threadedly connected to the connecting post 231, thereby connecting the rotating upper shell 230 and the rotating lower shell 240. The transmitter 300 is locked in place by the rotating upper shell 230 and the rotating lower shell 240, so as to realize the installation of the transmitter 300 and the rotating ball 200.
[0037] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can readily implement this utility model based on the accompanying drawings and the above description; however, any modifications, alterations, or variations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the utility model's technical solution, utilizing the disclosed technical content, are equivalent embodiments of this utility model; furthermore, any equivalent changes, alterations, or variations made to the above embodiments based on the essential technology of this utility model are still within the protection scope of this utility model's technical solution.
