[0037] Reference Figures 1 to 5 A multi-functional remote control includes a base 100, a display screen 500, a gesture recognition component 940, a battery, and a control board 600.

[0038] The base 100 is provided with a first mounting slot 110 and a second mounting slot 120;

[0039] The display screen 500 is disposed within the first mounting slot 110;

[0040] The gesture recognition component 940 is disposed in the first mounting slot 110 and is used to recognize gesture actions;

[0041] The battery is housed within the second mounting slot 120;

[0042] The control board 600 is disposed in the first mounting slot 110 or the second mounting slot 120 and is electrically connected to the display screen 500, the gesture recognition component 940 and the battery.

[0043] In this utility model, reference is made to Figures 2-4In some embodiments, a multi-functional remote control further includes a knob 200, a limiting seat 300, and a detection component 400; the knob 200 is rotatably disposed within a first mounting groove 110; the limiting seat 300 is connected to the base 100 and abuts against the knob 200, used to limit the separation of the knob 200 from the base 100; the detection component 400 is disposed within the first mounting groove 110 and electrically connected to a control board 600, used to detect the rotation angle of the knob 200; specifically, the base 100 is divided into a first mounting groove located at the upper end of the base 100 by a partition. The first mounting slot 110 and the second mounting slot 120 located at the lower end of the base 100 are connected by a wire hole to facilitate wiring between the battery and the control board 600. During assembly, the knob 200 is placed into the first mounting slot 110, and then the limiting seat 300 is connected to the base 100, so that the knob 200 is limited on the base 100 (without affecting the rotation of the knob 200). Then, the display screen 500 and the control board 600 are mounted on the limiting seat 300, and the display screen 500 is positioned on the control board 600. Preferably, the knob 200 is located on the outside of the display screen 500 and the control board 600, which reduces space occupation while protecting the display screen 500 and the control board 600. Furthermore, the battery is installed in the second mounting slot 120, and then the electrical connection between the control board 600 and the detection component 400, the display screen 500, and the battery is completed. The control board 600 is equipped with a gesture recognition component 940 to recognize the user's gestures, including but not limited to left, right, up, down, clockwise, and counterclockwise movements. It should be noted that since the display screen 500 is located above the control board 600 (gesture recognition component 940), a corresponding clearance area needs to be provided on the display screen 500 to avoid the display screen 500 affecting the signal transmission and reception of the gesture recognition component 940. In use, the controlled device is connected to the remote control via wired or wireless means. The status of the controlled device or the control function of the remote control is controlled by rotating the knob 200 or by gesture. The display screen 500 is used to display the relevant parameters of the remote control and / or the controlled device.

[0044] Reference Figures 2-4In some embodiments, the limiting seat 300 includes a connecting plate 310 and a pressing plate 320. The connecting plate 310 is connected to the bottom of the first mounting groove 110, and the pressing plate 320 passes through the knob 200 and is connected to the connecting plate 310, so that the knob 200 is rotatably located between the pressing plate 320 and the connecting plate 310. During assembly, the knob 200 is first placed between the connecting plate 310 and the pressing plate 320, and then the pressing plate 320 is connected to the connecting plate 310 via the third bolt connection structure 730. The 10 connection makes the knob 200, the connecting plate 310 and the pressing plate 320 form a whole. It should be noted that the lower end of the connecting plate 310 needs to be equipped with a support column to form a support level between the connecting plate 310 and the first mounting groove 110, so as to avoid the connecting bolts between the pressing plate 320 and the connecting plate 310. Furthermore, the whole is placed into the first mounting groove 110, and then connected to the base 100 from bottom to top through the second bolt connection structure 720 from the second mounting groove 120.

[0045] Reference Figure 2 In some embodiments, the connecting plate 310 is provided with a limiting protrusion 810, and the first mounting groove 110 is provided with a limiting groove 820. The limiting protrusion 810 can extend into the limiting groove 820 when the connecting plate 310 is installed in the first mounting groove 110, so as to limit the relative rotation between the connecting plate 310 and the base 100. This setting can play a limiting role when the knob 200, the connecting plate 310 and the pressing plate 320 are placed into the first mounting groove 110 as a whole, and can prevent the whole from rotating relative to the base 100.

[0046] Reference Figures 2-4 In some embodiments, the knob 200 includes a rotating ring 210 and a rotating base 220, with a pressing plate 320 passing through the rotating base 220. The rotating ring 210 is connected to the rotating base 220 and sleeved on the outside of the display screen 500. In a further embodiment, the rotating ring 210 is connected to the rotating base 220 through a first bolt connection structure 710. During assembly, the rotating base 220 is first placed between the connecting plate 310 and the pressing plate 320 to complete the connection of the rotating base 220, the connecting plate 310, and the pressing plate 320, and after completing the assembly of the entire remote control, the rotating ring 210 is finally installed on the rotating base 220.

[0047] Reference Figures 2-4 In some embodiments, a knob desktop remote control also includes a pressure ring 900 connected to the knob 200 via a snap-fit ​​structure 740, the pressure ring 900 being located above the display screen 500; by setting the pressure ring 900, a smooth transition between the display screen 500 and the knob 200 (rotation ring 210) is achieved, improving aesthetics.

[0048] Reference Figures 1-3In some embodiments, the base 100 is provided with a charging interface 130 that is electrically connected to the control board 600, which can charge the battery or be directly powered by an external power source.

[0049] Reference Figures 2-5 In some embodiments, the detection component 400 is configured as a photoelectric sensor, and the knob 200 is provided with alternating first detection part 230 and second detection part 240 on the side near the detection component 400. The first detection part 230 is configured as a groove, and the second detection part 240 is configured as a protrusion. The photoelectric sensor continuously emits infrared signals. When the knob 200 is rotated, when the infrared signal emitted by the photoelectric sensor shines on the first detection part 230, it will feed back a first signal. When the infrared signal emitted by the photoelectric sensor shines on the second detection part 240, it will feed back a second signal. The control board 600 calculates the rotation angle of the knob 200 based on the first signal and the second signal, thereby realizing the corresponding control.

[0050] Reference Figures 2-5 In some embodiments, anti-slip stripes 910 are provided on the outer wall of the knob 200 and / or the base 100. In other embodiments, a cover plate 920 is provided at the lower end of the base 100 to close the second mounting groove 120. Anti-slip stripes can be provided at the lower end of the cover plate 920 for anti-slip purposes, or an independent anti-slip pad 930 can be attached to the lower end of the cover plate 920 for anti-slip purposes.

[0051] Reference Figures 2-5 In some embodiments, the lower end of the base 100 is arranged at an angle; this arrangement allows the remote control to tilt toward the user when placed on a flat surface, facilitating adjustment of the knob 200 and recognition of the user's gestures, thereby improving the ease of operation.

[0052] The advantages of this invention are: the above structure enables gesture control of the controlled device and can also intuitively display relevant parameters, greatly improving the convenience of using the remote control and meeting user needs.

[0053] Of course, this utility model is not limited to the above-described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of this utility model. All such equivalent modifications and substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
