Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of electric blanket equipment, specifically a double-sided electric blanket controller. Background Technology
[0002] This electric blanket controller is designed to provide precise temperature control for electric blankets. It features a minimalist rectangular design and a user interface, including a robust casing, easy-to-use buttons, and a high-definition display. Users can easily adjust the blanket's temperature and set the time through this interface to meet their individual temperature needs for different seasons and occasions.
[0003] Although modern electric heating controllers incorporate numerous intelligent functions, such as intelligent timed start and stop and automatic power-off protection, there is still room for improvement in their structural design. Most controllers only have an operating interface on one side, whether it's a physical button or a touchscreen, which limits their convenience in various usage scenarios. For example, when a user needs to adjust settings, if the operable side of the controller is not easily accessible, the user may have to flip the controller, which undoubtedly increases the complexity of operation.
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, there is an urgent need for innovative design based on the existing controller. Utility Model Content
[0005] This utility model addresses the problem that existing technical solutions are too simplistic by providing a double-sided electric blanket controller that is significantly different from existing technologies, thus solving the problems mentioned in the background.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a double-sided electric blanket controller, comprising a first control panel, a second control panel, and a display screen. The first control panel is snapped into connection with the second control panel, and a display screen is installed on the upper side of each of the first and second control panels. A control slot is provided on the lower side of each of the first and second control panels, and several control buttons are installed in each control slot. The control buttons are connected to a circuit board, and both the first and second control panels are provided with protective structures to protect and prevent accidental touch of the control buttons.
[0007] Preferably, the circuit board is located within the first control panel and the second control panel, and the circuit board is electrically connected to the display screen, and the circuit board is electrically connected to the electric blanket and the power supply respectively.
[0008] Preferably, the protective structure includes a shielding part and a control part. The shielding part includes a sliding groove, a slider, a cover plate, a movable rod, and a movable slot. A sliding groove is provided on both sides of the control slot in the first control panel and the second control panel, and a slider is slidably connected in each sliding groove. A cover plate is connected to the end of each slider through the outer wall of the corresponding first control panel and the second control panel. A movable rod is connected to the side of each slider away from the control groove, and each movable rod is located in the corresponding movable slot. The movable slot is provided in the corresponding first control panel and the second control panel.
[0009] Preferably, the slider, cover plate and movable rod form a tortuous structure, and the movable rod and movable groove are connected by a snap-fit sliding connection.
[0010] Preferably, the control unit includes a support groove, a cylinder, piston plates, a return spring, and a counterweight ball. A support groove is provided on each side of the first control panel and the second control panel, and one end of each support groove is connected to a corresponding movable groove, and the other end of each support groove is connected to both ends of the corresponding cylinder. The cylinder is installed in the first control panel and the second control panel, and each cylinder is provided with two piston plates, and each piston plate is connected to a return spring in the direction of the corresponding end of the cylinder. A counterweight ball is provided between the piston plates in each cylinder.
[0011] Preferably, there are two cylinders, which are symmetrically distributed about the center lines of the first control panel and the second control panel, and the cylinders and the piston plate are connected by a piston-type sliding connection.
[0012] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this invention are as follows: This double-sided electric blanket controller is composed of core components such as a first control panel, a second control panel, a display screen, control buttons, and a circuit board. This design ensures convenient operation and control from both sides regardless of how the user holds the controller, effectively avoiding the inconvenience of flipping the controller when it is picked up because the control button area is located under the palm of the hand, thus greatly improving the practicality of the controller and the user experience.
[0013] In addition, this controller is specially equipped with a protective structure. Regardless of which side of the controller is facing up when the user picks it up, the protective structure automatically adjusts to ensure that the control slots and buttons on the upward-facing control panel are exposed for direct user operation without affecting the user experience. At the same time, the control slots and buttons on the downward-facing control panel are cleverly concealed to prevent accidental touches by the palm of the hand, thus avoiding accidental activation.
[0014] This combination of dual-sided operation and intelligent protection structure not only provides users with a more flexible and convenient way to operate, but also effectively reduces the risk of misoperation, ensuring the stability and reliability of the controller in various usage scenarios.

The first control panel 1 is engaged with the second control panel 2, and a display screen 3 is installed on the upper side of both the first control panel 1 and the second control panel 2. A control slot 4 is opened on the lower side of both the first control panel 1 and the second control panel 2. Each control slot 4 is equipped with several control buttons 5, and the control buttons 5 are connected to the circuit board 6. The first control panel 1 and the second control panel 2 are both provided with a protective structure 7 for protecting and preventing accidental touch of the control buttons 5.
[0022] Circuit board 6 is located within the first control panel 1 and the second control panel 2, and circuit board 6 is electrically connected to the display screen 3, and circuit board 6 is electrically connected to the electric blanket and the power supply respectively.
[0023] The protective structure 7 includes a shielding part and a control part. The shielding part includes a sliding groove 701, a slider 702, a cover plate 703, a movable rod 704, and a movable slot 705. A sliding groove 701 is opened on both sides of the control slot 4 in the first control panel 1 and the second control panel 2. A slider 702 is slidably connected in each sliding groove 701. The end of each slider 702 passes through the outer wall of the corresponding first control panel 1 and the second control panel 2 and is connected to a cover plate 703. A movable rod 704 is connected to the side of each slider 702 away from the control slot 4. Each movable rod 704 is located in the corresponding movable slot 705. The movable slot 705 is opened in the corresponding first control panel 1 and the second control panel 2.
[0024] The slider 702, cover plate 703 and movable rod 704 form a tortuous structure, and the movable rod 704 and movable groove 705 are connected by a snap-fit sliding connection.
[0025] The control unit includes a support groove 706, a cylinder 707, a piston plate 708, a return spring 709, and a counterweight ball 710. A support groove 706 is provided on both sides of the first control panel 1 and the second control panel 2. One end of each support groove 706 is connected to a corresponding movable groove 705, and the other end of each support groove 706 is connected to both ends of the corresponding cylinder 707. The cylinder 707 is installed in the first control panel 1 and the second control panel 2. Each cylinder 707 is provided with two piston plates 708. Each piston plate 708 is connected to a return spring 709 at the end of the corresponding cylinder 707. A counterweight ball 710 is provided between the piston plates 708 in each cylinder 707.
[0026] There are two cylinders 707, and the cylinders 707 are symmetrically distributed about the center line of the first control panel 1 and the second control panel 2. The cylinders 707 and the piston plate 708 are connected by a piston-type sliding connection.
[0027] Working principle: According to Figure 1As shown, when the controller is picked up for use, regardless of which side of the first control panel 1 and the second control panel 2 faces upwards (for example, when the first control panel 1 faces upwards and the second control panel 2 faces downwards towards the palm), under the action of gravity, the counterweight ball 710 falls towards the second control panel 2 within the cylinder 707, pressing the piston plate 708 near the second control panel 2 downwards. The corresponding return spring 709 is compressed, and the air or hydraulic oil filling the space between the piston plate 708 and the second control panel 2 enters the movable groove 705 on the second control panel 2 through the support groove 706. This pushes the movable rod 704, the slider 702, and the cover plate 703 towards the center of the second control panel 2, thus shielding and protecting the control groove 4 and control button 5 on the second control panel 2 to prevent accidental touches by the palm. At the same time, the cover plates 703 on both sides of the first control panel 1 will be in the open state, making it convenient for the user to operate the control button 5 on the first control panel 1. If the second control panel 2 faces upwards, the opposite is true. This is the working principle of the double-sided electric blanket controller.
[0028] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
