Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of remote control technology, specifically a remote control with a waterproof battery compartment structure. Background Technology
[0002] A remote control is a wireless transmitter that uses modern digital encoding technology to encode button information and emits light waves via an infrared diode. The received infrared signal is converted into an electrical signal by the receiver, which is then decoded and demodulated by a processor to extract the corresponding commands to control devices such as set-top boxes. Button battery remote controls are commonly found on the market, and their compact and elegant appearance makes them popular for controlling various small electronic devices. They use a built-in button battery, providing stable and long-lasting power for reliable signal transmission. Operation is simple; a light press is all it takes to accurately issue commands and achieve flexible control of the device. However, existing remote controls still have some problems in use:
[0003] For example, a remote control with an automatic pop-out battery compartment and button battery, with application number 202121951900.6, has the following technical solution: it includes a first shell and a second shell. The first shell is equipped with buttons. The first shell and the second shell are assembled by a snap-fit structure. A battery compartment is opened at the rear end of the first shell and the second shell. A lower cover and a top cover of the battery compartment are inserted into the battery compartment. A spring is provided at the end of the top cover of the battery compartment. A first mounting groove is opened in the middle of the upper surface of the top cover of the battery compartment. A locking component is provided in the first mounting groove. However, the battery compartment of the existing remote control has significant defects in sealing and waterproof performance. From the perspective of daily use scenarios, ordinary household remote controls often come into contact with water stains and moisture, such as steam during cooking in the kitchen and humid environments in the bathroom, which leads to short circuits in the internal circuits and button failure, greatly shortening the service life and seriously restricting the stable use of the remote control in complex environments.
[0004] In view of this, in-depth research was conducted on the above issues, which led to the creation of this case.
[0005] To address the aforementioned issues, an innovative design was developed based on the existing remote control. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a remote control with a waterproof battery compartment structure to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as poor battery compartment sealing and weak waterproof performance affecting the use of the remote control.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0015] Preferably, top rods are fixedly installed on the rear sides of the left and right sides of the battery mounting plate, and the top rods touch the rotating plate to drive the rotating plate to form a rotating structure.
[0016] Using the above technical solution, the push rod on the rear side of the battery mounting plate cooperates with the rotating plate. When the battery mounting plate is inserted or pulled out, the push rod touches the rotating plate to make it rotate. This structure can trigger the subsequent movement of the moving plate and the sponge block to achieve a waterproof seal on the rear side of the battery compartment and prevent moisture from entering from the rear side of the battery compartment.
[0017] Preferably, a guide rod is provided through the inside of the fixed plate, and a spring is provided on the outside of the guide rod. A movable plate is connected and installed at the front end of the spring, and the rotation of the rotating plate forms a pushing structure for the movable plate.
[0018] Using the above technical solution, the rotating plate pushes the moving plate, and the spring provides buffering and reset functions. The moving plate moves stably under the action of the spring, ensuring that the sponge block can accurately seal the rear side of the battery compartment, thus enhancing the stability and reliability of the waterproof structure.
[0019] Preferably, a sponge block is fixedly installed on the front side of the movable plate, and a horizontal groove is opened on the rear side of the battery mounting plate, with the sponge block penetrating through the horizontal groove.
[0020] Using the above technical solution, the sponge block on the front side of the movable plate cooperates with the horizontal groove on the rear side of the battery mounting plate.
