Utility Model Content
[0004] (a) Technical problems to be solved
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this application provides a control panel that solves the problems mentioned in the background section.
[0006] (II) Technical Solution
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution: a control panel, including a housing, a mounting mechanism, and a retaining mechanism for enhancing the stability of the mounting mechanism. The mounting mechanism is internally provided with a fixing mechanism for fixing the mounting mechanism. The fixing mechanism includes a first telescopic tube and a rotating box. The first telescopic tube is disposed inside the mounting mechanism, and the rear side of the rotating box is connected to the front side of the first telescopic tube. The mounting mechanism is disposed inside the housing, and the retaining mechanism is disposed below the fixing mechanism.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the extension and retraction of the first telescopic tube can provide mobile support for the removal and storage of the rotating box, avoiding the possibility of externally driving the fixed mechanism to rotate.
[0009] Preferably, the fixing mechanism further includes a rotating groove and a movable cavity. The rotating groove is located at the center of the front side of the mounting mechanism, and the inner wall of the rotating groove is slidably connected to the rotating box. The movable cavity is located at the rear side of the rotating groove, and a handle is connected to the rear side of the inner wall of the rotating box.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the movable cavity on the rear side of the rotating slot can be used to provide a space for the operation of the fixing mechanism, and the handle makes it easy to control the forward movement, storage and rotation of the rotating box.
[0011] Preferably, the fixing mechanism further includes a movable groove and a rotating column. The movable groove is opened on the side of the movable cavity. The rotating column is rotatably connected to the center of the rear side of the inner wall of the movable cavity. A gear is connected to the front side of the rotating column. The front side of the gear is connected to the rear side of the first telescopic tube. A rack is meshed with the side of the gear. The rear side of the rack is slidably connected to the inner wall of the movable cavity.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the moving slot can be used to provide directional guidance for the movement of the fixed plate. The rotation of the rotating box drives the first telescopic tube to rotate, the rotation of the first telescopic tube drives the gear connected to the rotating column to rotate, and the rotation of the gear drives the rack in the movable cavity to move in opposite directions, converting the rotation into linear movement.
[0013] Preferably, the fixing mechanism further includes a fixing groove and a fixing plate. The fixing groove is formed on the left and right sides of the inner wall of the outer shell. The fixing plate is connected to one side of the rack. The side of the fixing plate is slidably connected to the moving groove and the fixing groove in sequence.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the rack and pinion can be moved in opposite directions to drive the fixing plate into the fixing groove, thereby fixing the fixing plate inside the shell and fixing the position of the main panel.
[0015] Preferably, the installation mechanism includes a panel body and a placement groove. The rear side of the panel body is fitted with the rear side of the inner wall of the outer shell. The placement groove is opened on the front side of the outer shell. A retaining plate is provided in the placement groove. A rotating groove is opened at the center of the front side of the retaining plate.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the panel body can be fixed inside the outer shell using the retaining plate in the placement slot, and external objects can be prevented from damaging the panel body.
[0017] Preferably, the retaining mechanism includes a retaining hole and a sliding groove, the retaining hole being formed on the arc-shaped surface of the rotating box, and the sliding groove being formed on the rear side of the retaining hole.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the fixing hole can be used to provide a fixable space for the rotating box, and the sliding groove can be used to avoid the second telescopic tube restricting the rotating box when it moves forward.
[0019] Preferably, the fixing mechanism further includes a telescopic groove and a second telescopic tube, the telescopic groove being formed at the bottom of the rotating groove, and the bottom of the second telescopic tube being connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the rotating groove.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the second telescopic tube in the telescopic groove can be used to fix the rotating box in place by fitting it with the fixing hole, while the telescopic groove provides space for the extension and retraction of the second telescopic tube.
[0021] Preferably, the retaining mechanism further includes a drive plate and a spring. The center of the drive plate is connected to the upper side of the second telescopic tube, the spring is disposed on the outside of the second telescopic tube, the top of the spring is connected to the bottom of the drive plate, and the bottom of the spring is connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the telescopic groove.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the spring force itself can be used to move the drive plate up, and the movement of the drive plate will cause the second telescopic tube to extend so that its top fits into the fixing hole, thus ensuring the stability of the second telescopic tube in the extended state.
[0023] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0024] This application provides a control panel. It has the following beneficial effects:
[0025] 1. This control panel, through the setting of a fixing mechanism, moves the handle forward, causing the rotating box in the rotating groove to move forward. Rotating the handle causes the first telescopic tube on the rear side of the rotating box to rotate. The rotation of the first telescopic tube causes the gear on the front side of the rotating column to rotate. The rotation of the gear causes the rack to move in opposite directions. The movement of the rack in opposite directions causes the fixing plate to pass through the moving groove and fit against the inner wall of the fixing groove, thus fixing the fixing plate. This reduces the possibility of other objects entering the gap of the fixing mechanism, ensures the smooth disassembly work during control panel maintenance, reduces the difficulty and efficiency of disassembly, and reduces the working cost of the maintenance process.
[0026] 2. This control panel, by setting a fixing mechanism, when the rotating box is inserted into the rotating slot, the plate is driven to move up by the elastic force of the spring in the telescopic slot. The moving plate causes the second telescopic tube to extend and slide into the fixing hole along the slide groove, fixing the rotating box in place. This enhances the stability of the fixing mechanism and prevents the main body of the panel from shifting. Attached Figure Description

A gear 306 is connected to the front side of the rotating column 305. The front side of the gear 306 is connected to the rear side of the first telescopic tube 309. The gear 306 is connected to the side of the rack 307, which is meshed with the rack 307. The rear side of the rack 307 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the movable cavity 302. The left and right sides of the inner wall of the outer shell 1 are provided with fixing grooves 304. The rack 307 is connected to a fixing plate 308 on one side. The side of the fixing plate 308 is slidably connected to the moving groove 303 and the fixing groove 304 in sequence. The mounting mechanism 2 is set inside the outer shell 1. The retaining mechanism 4 is set below the fixing mechanism 3. The forward handle 311 drives the rotating box 310 in the rotating groove 301 to move forward. Rotating the handle 311 drives the first telescopic tube 309 on the rear side of the rotating box 310 to rotate. The rotation of the first telescopic tube 309 drives the gear 306 on the front side of the rotating column 305 to rotate. The rotation of the gear 306 drives the rack 307 to move in opposite directions. The movement of the rack 307 drives the fixing plate 308 to pass through the moving groove 303 and fit against the inner wall of the fixing groove 304, thus fixing the retaining plate 203.
[0039] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one aspect of this embodiment, the mounting mechanism 2 includes a panel body 201 and a placement groove 202. The rear side of the panel body 201 is attached to the rear side of the inner wall of the outer shell 1. The placement groove 202 is opened on the front side of the outer shell 1. A retaining plate 203 is provided in the placement groove 202. A rotating groove 301 is opened at the center of the front side of the retaining plate 203. The panel body 201 is placed inside the outer shell 1, and the retaining plate 203 is placed in the placement groove 202.
[0040] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7In one aspect of this embodiment, the fixing mechanism 4 includes a fixing hole 401 and a telescopic groove 403. The fixing hole 401 is formed on the arc-shaped surface of the rotating box 310. A sliding groove 402 is formed on the rear side of the fixing hole 401. The telescopic groove 403 is formed at the bottom of the rotating groove 301. A second telescopic tube 404 is connected to the bottom of the telescopic groove 403. One end of the second telescopic tube 404 is slidably connected to the fixing hole 401. A driving plate 405 is connected to the upper side of the second telescopic tube 404. A spring 406 is connected to the bottom of the driving plate 405. The bottom of the spring 406 is at the bottom of the inner wall of the telescopic groove 403. The spring 406 is located on the outside of the second telescopic tube 404. During the process of the rotating box 310 being inserted into the rotating groove 301, the driving plate 405 moves upward under the action of the spring 406 in the telescopic groove 403. The upward movement of the driving plate 405 causes the second telescopic tube 404 to extend and slide into the fixing hole 401 along the sliding groove 402, thus fixing the rotating box 310.
[0041] All electrical devices in this plan are powered by an external power source.
[0042] Working principle: In use, place the panel body 201 inside the outer casing 1, place the retaining plate 203 into the placement slot 202, and move the handle 311 forward to move the rotating box 310 in the rotating slot 301 forward until one end of the second telescopic tube 404 successively disengages from the retaining hole 401 and the sliding groove 402 and fits against the rear side of the rotating box 310. Rotate the handle 311 to rotate the first telescopic tube 309 on the rear side of the rotating box 310. The rotation of the first telescopic tube 309 drives the gear 306 on the front side of the rotating column 305 to rotate. The rotation of the gear 306 drives the rack 307 to move in opposite directions. The rack 307 moves in opposite directions, causing the fixing plate 308 to pass through the moving groove 303 and fit against the inner wall of the fixing groove 304, thus fixing the fixing plate 203. The control handle 311 moves backward, causing the rotating box 310 to move backward. The backward movement of the rotating box 310 causes the first telescopic tube 309 to shorten. At the same time, during the process of the rotating box 310 being inserted into the rotating groove 301, the plate 405 moves upward under the elastic force of the spring 406 in the telescopic groove 403. The upward movement of the plate 405 causes the second telescopic tube 404 to extend and slide into the fixing hole 401 along the sliding groove 402, thus fixing the rotating box 310.
