Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the technical field of vehicle accessories, specifically relating to a rotating mechanism, a display device, and a vehicle. Background Technology
[0002] The central control screen is the core interactive interface of modern vehicle infotainment systems. It can integrate media control, vehicle settings, navigation, communication and intelligent connectivity functions. Since the optimal viewing angle for users of different heights to observe and operate the central control screen is different, and most existing central control screens are fixedly connected to the center console, this affects the user's driving experience.
[0003] To enhance the user experience, some vehicles feature a rotating mechanism on the center console. This mechanism includes a support frame on the center console, a support rod on the support frame, and two telescopic rods on the support frame. The two telescopic rods are located on either side of the support rod, and all three are connected to the center screen via corresponding ball joints. When adjusting the tilt angle of the center screen, the piston rods of both telescopic rods extend or retract simultaneously, causing the center screen to rotate around the connection point between the support rod and the center screen, thus adjusting the tilt angle. When adjusting the yaw angle of the center screen, the piston rod of one telescopic rod extends or retracts, pushing or pulling one side of the center screen. This causes the center screen to rotate around the line connecting the other telescopic rod and the support rod to the center screen, thus adjusting the yaw angle.
[0004] However, when adjusting the tilt angle of the central control screen, the screen rotates around the line connecting the other telescopic rod and the support rod to the central control screen. Consequently, the tilt angle of the central control screen also changes when the tilt angle is adjusted. Therefore, it is difficult to find the best viewing angle for the user to observe and operate by adjusting the tilt angle of the central control screen alone, which to some extent affects the user experience. Utility Model Content
[0005] This application provides a rotating mechanism to enable individual adjustment of the tilt and yaw angles of the central control screen, thereby improving the user experience.
[0006] The technical solution adopted in this application is as follows:
[0007] A rotating mechanism includes a base, a connector, and a drive assembly. The connector includes a connecting body, a first shaft rotatably connected to the connecting body, and a second shaft rotatably connected to the connecting body. The first shaft and the second shaft are parallel and spaced apart. The connecting body has a mounting position for mounting a central control screen. The base has a support arm hinged to the first shaft. The drive assembly includes a first telescopic structure connected to the base and a second telescopic structure connected to the base. The first telescopic structure is hinged to the first shaft. The hinge axis of the first telescopic structure and the first shaft are parallel and spaced apart, and the hinge axis of the support arm and the first shaft are perpendicular to the rotation axis of the first shaft. The first telescopic structure can drive the first shaft to rotate about the hinge axis of the support arm and the first shaft. The second telescopic structure is hinged to the second shaft. The hinge axis of the second telescopic structure and the second shaft are collinear, and the hinge axis of the support arm and the first shaft are collinear. The second telescopic structure can drive the second shaft to rotate about the central axis of the first shaft.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, when using the rotating mechanism in this application, the rotating mechanism is installed on the center console of the vehicle, and the center screen is installed on the rotating mechanism, that is, the base is installed on the center console of the vehicle, and the center screen is installed on the mounting position of the connector, so as to realize that the center screen is installed on the center console through the rotating mechanism.
[0009] Since both the first and second axes are rotatably connected to the connecting body, and are arranged parallel and spaced apart, with the support arm hinged to the first axis, when the central axis of the first axis is set in the vertical direction, the tilt angle of the central control screen can be adjusted by rotating the first axis around the hinge axis of the support arm and the first axis, and the yaw angle of the central control screen can be adjusted by rotating the second axis around the rotation axis of the first axis. When the central axis of the first axis is set in the horizontal direction, the yaw angle of the central control screen can be adjusted by rotating the first axis around the hinge axis of the support arm and the first axis, and the tilt angle of the central control screen can be adjusted by rotating the second axis around the rotation axis of the first axis. The following analysis will take the case where the first axis is set in the vertical direction as an example.
[0010] When adjusting the pitch angle of the central control screen, the first telescopic structure is activated to drive the first shaft. The first shaft then rotates around the hinge axis between the support arm and the first shaft under the driving action of the first telescopic structure. This causes the first shaft to drive the connecting body and the central control screen installed in the mounting position to rotate, thereby achieving the adjustment of the pitch angle of the central control screen.
[0011] When adjusting the tilt angle of the central control screen, the second telescopic structure is activated to drive the second axis. The second axis then rotates around the rotation axis of the first axis under the driving action of the second telescopic structure. At the same time, the first axis and the connecting body rotate relative to each other, so that the second axis drives the connecting body and the central control screen installed in the mounting position to rotate, thereby realizing the adjustment of the tilt angle of the central control screen.
[0012] Because the hinge axis of the second telescopic structure and the second shaft, and the hinge axis of the support arm and the first shaft are collinear, and the hinge axis of the first telescopic structure and the first shaft are parallel to the hinge axis of the support arm and the first shaft, when the first shaft rotates around the hinge axis of the support arm and the first shaft to adjust the angle of the central control screen, the second shaft can rotate relative to the second telescopic structure under the driving force of the connecting body, so as to achieve independent adjustment of the pitch angle of the central control screen; and when the second shaft rotates around the central axis of the first shaft to adjust the yaw angle of the central control screen, the connecting body can rotate relative to the first shaft under the driving force of the second shaft, so as to achieve independent adjustment of the yaw angle of the central control screen. Thus, the adjustment of the pitch angle and the adjustment of the yaw angle of the central control screen do not affect each other, so that users can easily adjust the central control screen to their optimal viewing and operating angle, thereby improving the user experience.
[0013] Meanwhile, compared with the ball hinge connection method in the prior art, the technical solution in this application reduces the assembly difficulty of the rotating mechanism, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the rotating mechanism, and also reduces the production and manufacturing cost of the rotating mechanism.
[0014] Optionally, the first telescopic structure includes a first telescopic member and a first drive arm. The first telescopic member is fixedly connected to the base and has a movable first actuator. The two ends of the first drive arm are respectively hinged to the first actuator and the first shaft, and the hinge axes at both ends of the first drive arm are arranged in parallel.
[0015] And / or, the second telescopic structure includes a second telescopic member and a second drive arm. The second telescopic member is fixedly connected to the base and has a movable second actuator. The two ends of the second drive arm are respectively hinged to the second actuator and the second shaft, and the hinge axes at both ends of the second drive arm are vertically arranged.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, when adjusting the pitch angle of the central control screen, the first telescopic component is activated to move the first actuator of the first telescopic component, which in turn drives the first drive arm. The first drive arm pulls or pushes the first shaft, thereby causing the first shaft to drive the connecting body and the central control screen to rotate around the hinge axis between the support arm and the first shaft. At the same time, the second shaft and the second telescopic structure rotate relative to each other to achieve the adjustment of the pitch angle of the central control screen.
[0017] Since the first telescopic component is fixedly connected to the base, the stability of the first telescopic component is increased, so as to ensure the smoothness of adjusting the tilt angle of the central control screen and the smoothness of adjusting the tilt angle of the central control screen.
[0018] When adjusting the tilt angle of the central control screen, the second telescopic component is activated to move the second actuator of the second telescopic component. The second actuator then drives the second drive arm, which pulls or pushes the second shaft. This causes the second shaft to drive the connecting body and the central control screen to rotate around the central axis of the first shaft. At the same time, the first shaft and the connecting body rotate relative to each other, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the central control screen.
[0019] Since the second telescopic component is fixedly connected to the base, the stability of the second telescopic component is increased, so as to ensure the smoothness of adjusting the tilt angle of the central control screen and the smoothness of adjusting the yaw angle of the central control screen.
[0020] Optionally, the first telescopic structure includes a first telescopic component, which includes a first motor, a first lead screw, and a first actuator. The first lead screw is driven to the output shaft of the first motor, and the first actuator is threaded to the first lead screw.
[0021] And / or, the second telescopic structure includes a second telescopic member, the second telescopic member including a second motor, a second lead screw and a second actuator, the second lead screw being driven to the output shaft of the second motor, and the second actuator being threaded to the second lead screw.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, when adjusting the pitch angle of the central control screen, the first motor is started, and the output shaft of the first motor drives the first lead screw to rotate, so that the first actuator rotates relative to the first lead screw under the action of the first drive arm. Then, the first actuator moves along the axial direction of the first lead screw, so that the first actuator drives the first drive arm, thereby driving the first drive arm to drive the first shaft. The first shaft drives the connecting body and the central control screen to rotate around the hinge axis of the support arm and the first shaft, so as to realize the adjustment of the pitch angle of the central control screen.
[0023] Since the first telescopic component includes a first motor, a first lead screw, and a first actuator, the output shaft of the first motor can drive the first lead screw to rotate, thereby driving the first actuator. Compared with solutions such as pneumatic cylinders, hydraulic cylinders, or electric actuators, the length of the first telescopic component can be reduced, thus facilitating the miniaturization of the rotating mechanism.
[0024] When adjusting the tilt angle of the central control screen, the second motor is started. The output shaft of the second motor drives the second lead screw to rotate, so that the second actuator rotates relative to the second lead screw under the action of the second drive arm. This causes the second actuator to move along the axial direction of the second lead screw, so that the second actuator drives the second drive arm, which in turn drives the second shaft. The second shaft drives the connecting body and the central control screen to rotate around the central axis of the first shaft, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the central control screen.
[0025] Since the second telescopic component includes a second motor, a second lead screw, and a second actuator, the output shaft of the second motor can drive the second lead screw to rotate, thereby driving the second actuator. Compared with solutions such as pneumatic cylinders, hydraulic cylinders, or electric actuators, the length of the second telescopic component can be reduced, thus facilitating the miniaturization of the rotating mechanism.
[0026] Optionally, the first telescopic structure includes a first telescopic member, the first telescopic member includes a first lead screw and a first actuator threaded to the first lead screw, the cross-section of the first actuator is non-circular, the base is provided with a first limiting hole adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the first actuator, and the first actuator passes through the first limiting hole;
[0027] And / or, the second telescopic structure includes a second telescopic member, the second telescopic member includes a second lead screw and a second actuator threaded to the second lead screw, the cross-section of the second actuator is non-circular, the base is provided with a second limiting hole adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the second actuator, and the second actuator passes through the second limiting hole.
[0028] By adopting the above technical solution, since the first actuator passes through the first limiting hole, the hole wall of the first limiting hole can be used to support the first actuator, thereby increasing the stability of the first actuator and increasing the load that the first actuator can withstand in the vertical direction, thereby increasing the connection stability between the central control screen and the central control console through the rotating mechanism.
[0029] Furthermore, since the cross-sectional shape of the first actuator is non-circular, and the first limiting hole is adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the first actuator, the outer peripheral surface of the first actuator can be used to cooperate with the hole wall of the first limiting hole to limit the first actuator, so as to avoid the first actuator and the first lead screw from having a tendency to rotate around their own circumference when they rotate relative to each other. At the same time, it can also reduce the torque borne by the connection position between the first actuator and the first drive arm and the connection position between the first drive arm and the first shaft when the first actuator and the first lead screw rotate relative to each other, so as to ensure the smoothness of the rotation between the first actuator and the first drive arm and the rotation between the first drive arm and the first shaft.
[0030] Since the second actuator passes through the second limiting hole, the hole wall of the second limiting hole can be used to support the second actuator, thereby increasing the stability of the second actuator and increasing the load that the second actuator can withstand in the vertical direction, thus increasing the connection stability between the central control screen and the central control console through the rotating mechanism.
[0031] Furthermore, since the cross-sectional shape of the second actuator is non-circular, and the second limiting hole is adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the second actuator, the outer peripheral surface of the second actuator can be used to cooperate with the hole wall of the second limiting hole to limit the second actuator, so as to avoid the second actuator having a tendency to rotate around its own circumference when it rotates relative to the second lead screw. At the same time, it can also reduce the torque borne by the connection position between the second actuator and the second drive arm and the connection position between the second drive arm and the second shaft when the second actuator and the second lead screw rotate relative to each other, so as to ensure the smoothness of the relative rotation of the second actuator and the second drive arm and the relative rotation of the second drive arm and the second shaft.
[0032] Optionally, the first telescopic structure includes a first telescopic member, the first telescopic member includes a first actuator, the base is provided with a first limiting hole and a first limiting body surrounding the first limiting hole, and the first actuator passes through the first limiting hole and the first limiting body.
[0033] And / or, the second telescopic structure includes a second telescopic member, the second telescopic member includes a second actuator, the base is provided with a second limiting hole and a second limiting body surrounding the second limiting hole, and the second actuator passes through the second limiting hole and the second limiting body.
[0034] By adopting the above technical solution, since the first actuator passes through the first limiting hole and the first limiting body, and the first limiting body is arranged around the first limiting hole, on the one hand, the contact area between the first actuator and the base can be increased, thereby increasing the support effect of the base on the first actuator, and further increasing the load that the first actuator can bear in the vertical direction, thereby further increasing the connection stability between the central control screen and the central control console through the rotating mechanism. On the other hand, the limiting effect of the base on the first actuator can also be increased, thereby further reducing the torque borne by the connection position between the first actuator and the first drive arm and the connection position between the first drive arm and the first shaft when the first actuator and the first lead screw rotate relative to each other, thereby further ensuring the smoothness of the relative rotation of the first actuator and the first drive arm and the relative rotation of the first drive arm and the first shaft.
[0035] Since the second actuator passes through the second limiting hole and the second limiting body, and the second limiting body is arranged around the second limiting hole, it can increase the contact area between the second actuator and the base, thereby increasing the support effect of the base on the second actuator and further increasing the load that the second actuator can withstand in the vertical direction, thus further increasing the connection stability between the central control screen and the central control console through the rotating mechanism. On the other hand, it can also increase the limiting effect of the base on the second actuator, thereby further reducing the torque borne by the connection position between the second actuator and the second drive arm and the connection position between the second drive arm and the second shaft when the second actuator and the second lead screw rotate relative to each other, thus further ensuring the smoothness of the relative rotation of the second actuator and the second drive arm and the relative rotation of the second drive arm and the second shaft.
[0036] Optionally, at least a portion of the first telescopic structure is located on the side of the base opposite to the connector;
[0037] And / or, at least a portion of the second telescopic structure is located on the side of the base opposite to the connector.
[0038] By adopting the above technical solution, since at least a portion of the first telescopic structure is located on the side of the base away from the connecting body, at least a portion of the first telescopic structure can overlap with the base in the direction close to or away from the connecting body, so as to further reduce the volume of the rotating mechanism, thereby further achieving the effect of facilitating the miniaturization design of the rotating mechanism.
[0039] Since at least a portion of the second telescopic structure is located on the side of the base away from the connector, at least a portion of the second telescopic structure can overlap with the base in the direction close to or away from the connector, thereby further reducing the volume of the rotating mechanism and further achieving the effect of facilitating the miniaturization design of the rotating mechanism.
[0040] Optionally, the first telescopic structure includes a first telescopic member, the first telescopic member includes a first motor, and the first motor is located on the side of the base opposite to the connecting body;
[0041] And / or, the second telescopic structure includes a second telescopic member, the second telescopic member including a second motor, the second motor being located on the side of the base opposite to the connecting body.
[0042] By adopting the above technical solution, since the first motor is located on the side of the base away from the connecting body, at least part of the first actuator and the first lead screw can overlap with the base in the direction close to or away from the connecting body, so as to further reduce the volume of the rotating mechanism, thereby further achieving the effect of facilitating the miniaturization design of the rotating mechanism. At the same time, the first limiting hole can be set on the end wall of the base facing the connecting body, so as to simplify the structural design of the base and reduce the design cost of the rotating mechanism.
[0043] Since the second motor is located on the side of the base away from the connecting body, at least a portion of the second actuator and the second lead screw can overlap with the base in the direction close to or away from the connecting body, so as to further reduce the volume of the rotating mechanism, thereby further achieving the effect of miniaturizing the rotating mechanism. At the same time, the second limiting hole can be set on the end wall of the base facing the connecting body, so as to simplify the structural design of the base and reduce the design cost of the rotating mechanism.
[0044] Optionally, the connector has an annular portion, with both the first shaft and the second shaft located inside the annular portion, and both ends of the first shaft and the second shaft passing through the wall of the annular portion.
[0045] By adopting the above technical solution, since both the first shaft and the second shaft are located inside the annular portion, the first shaft and the second shaft can be hidden, thereby improving the appearance quality of the rotating mechanism. Furthermore, since both ends of the first shaft and the second shaft pass through the wall of the annular portion, on the one hand, the first shaft and the second shaft can be rotated and connected to the connecting body, and on the other hand, the structural design of the connecting body can be simplified, thereby reducing the design cost of the rotating mechanism.

[0047] A display device includes a central control screen and a rotating mechanism as described above, wherein the central control screen is mounted at the mounting position.
[0048] By adopting the above technical solution, since the display device in this application uses the aforementioned rotating mechanism, the tilt angle and yaw angle of the central control screen are not affected by each other when they are adjusted, so that the user can easily adjust the central control screen to the best viewing and operating angle, thereby improving the user experience.

[0074] Reference Figures 1 to 7 A rotating mechanism is disclosed, comprising a base 1, a connector 2, and a drive assembly 3. The connector 2 includes a connecting body 21, a first shaft 22 rotatably connected to the connecting body 21, and a second shaft 23 rotatably connected to the connecting body 21. The first shaft 22 and the second shaft 23 are arranged parallel to each other and spaced apart. The connecting body 21 has a mounting position for mounting a central control screen 4. The base 1 has a support arm 13 hinged to the first shaft 22. The drive assembly 3 includes a first telescopic structure 31 connected to the base 1 and a second telescopic structure 32 connected to the base 1. The first telescopic structure 31 is hinged to the first shaft 22. A first telescopic structure 31 is parallel to and spaced from the hinge axis of the first shaft 22, and the support arm 13 is parallel to and perpendicular to the rotation axis of the first shaft 22. The first telescopic structure 31 can drive the first shaft 22 to rotate around the hinge axis of the support arm 13 and the first shaft 22. A second telescopic structure 32 is hinged to a second shaft 23. The hinge axis of the second telescopic structure 32 and the second shaft 23, and the support arm 13 are collinear with the hinge axis of the first shaft 22. The second telescopic structure 32 can drive the second shaft 23 to rotate around the central axis of the first shaft 22.
[0075] It is understood that the rotation axis of the first shaft 22 is collinear with its own central axis, and the rotation axis of the second shaft 23 is collinear with its own central axis. The end of the support arm 13 away from the base 1 is hinged to the first shaft 22 via a hinge shaft. The first telescopic structure 31 is also hinged to the first shaft 22 via a hinge shaft, and the second telescopic structure 32 is also hinged to the second shaft 23 via a hinge shaft. The central axis of the hinge shaft connecting the support arm 13 and the first shaft 22 is parallel to the central axis of the hinge shaft connecting the first telescopic structure 31 and the first shaft 22. The central axis of the hinge shaft connecting the support arm 13 and the first shaft 22 is collinear with the central axis of the hinge shaft connecting the second telescopic structure 32 and the second shaft 23.
[0076] When using the rotating mechanism in this application, the rotating mechanism is installed on the center console of the vehicle, and the center console screen 4 is installed on the rotating mechanism. That is, the base 1 is installed on the center console of the vehicle, and the center console screen 4 is installed at the mounting position of the connector 21, so that the center console screen 4 is installed on the center console through the rotating mechanism.
[0077] Since both the first shaft 22 and the second shaft 23 are rotatably connected to the connecting body 21, and the first shaft 22 and the second shaft 23 are arranged in parallel and spaced apart, and the support arm 13 is hinged to the first shaft 22, when the central axis of the first shaft 22 is set in the vertical direction, the pitch angle of the central control screen 4 can be adjusted by rotating the first shaft 22 around the hinge axis of the support arm 13 and the first shaft 22, and the yaw angle of the central control screen 4 can be adjusted by rotating the second shaft 23 around the rotation axis of the first shaft 22; when the central axis of the first shaft 22 is set in the horizontal direction, the yaw angle of the central control screen 4 can be adjusted by rotating the first shaft 22 around the hinge axis of the support arm 13 and the first shaft 22, and the pitch angle of the central control screen 4 can be adjusted by rotating the second shaft 23 around the rotation axis of the first shaft 22; the following analysis will take the setting of the first shaft 22 in the vertical direction as an example.
[0078] When adjusting the pitch angle of the central control screen 4, the first telescopic structure 31 is activated so that the first telescopic structure 31 drives the first shaft 22. Then, the first shaft 22 rotates around the hinge axis of the support arm 13 and the first shaft 22 under the driving action of the first telescopic structure 31, so that the first shaft 22 drives the connecting body 21 and the central control screen 4 installed in the mounting position to rotate, thereby realizing the adjustment of the pitch angle of the central control screen 4.
[0079] When adjusting the tilt angle of the central control screen 4, the second telescopic structure 32 is activated to drive the second shaft 23. The second shaft 23 then rotates around the rotation axis of the first shaft 22 under the driving action of the second telescopic structure 32. At the same time, the first shaft 22 and the connecting body 21 rotate relative to each other, so that the second shaft 23 drives the connecting body 21 and the central control screen 4 installed in the mounting position to rotate, thereby realizing the adjustment of the tilt angle of the central control screen 4.
[0080] Since the hinge axis of the second telescopic structure 32 and the second shaft 23 and the hinge axis of the support arm 13 and the first shaft 22 are collinear, and the hinge axis of the first telescopic structure 31 and the first shaft 22 is parallel to the hinge axis of the support arm 13 and the first shaft 22, when the first shaft 22 rotates around the hinge axis of the support arm 13 and the first shaft 22 to adjust the pitch angle of the central control screen 4, the second shaft 23 can rotate relative to the second telescopic structure 32 under the driving action of the connecting body 21, so as to realize the independent adjustment of the pitch angle of the central control screen 4. Adjustment; while the second axis 23 rotates around the central axis of the first axis 22 to adjust the tilt angle of the central control screen 4, the connecting body 21 can rotate relative to the first axis 22 under the driving action of the second axis 23, so as to realize the independent adjustment of the tilt angle of the central control screen 4. This ensures that the adjustment of the pitch angle and the adjustment of the tilt angle of the central control screen 4 do not affect each other, so that users can easily adjust the central control screen 4 to the best viewing and operation angle that suits them, thereby improving the user experience.
[0081] Meanwhile, compared with the ball hinge connection method in the prior art, the technical solution in this application reduces the assembly difficulty of the rotating mechanism, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the rotating mechanism, and also reduces the production and manufacturing cost of the rotating mechanism.
[0082] Preferably, the connection position between the support arm 13 and the first shaft 22 is located at the middle position in the length direction of the first shaft 22, and the first shaft 22 is located at the middle position of the dimension of the connecting body 21 in the direction perpendicular to the length direction of the first shaft 22, so as to facilitate the precise adjustment of the pitch angle and yaw angle of the central control screen 4.
[0083] This application does not impose specific limitations on the connection relationship between the first telescopic structure 31 and the base 1, nor on the first telescopic structure 31 itself; it can adopt any of the following embodiments:
[0084] Implementation Method 1, in this implementation method, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The first telescopic structure 31 includes a first telescopic member 311 and a first drive arm 312. The first telescopic member 311 is fixedly connected to the base 1 and has a movable first actuator 315. The two ends of the first drive arm 312 are respectively hinged to the first actuator 315 and the first shaft 22, and the hinge axes of the two ends of the first drive arm 312 are arranged in parallel.
[0085] It should be noted that the "parallel arrangement of the hinge axes at both ends of the first drive arm 312" mentioned above means that the hinge axis of the first drive arm 312 and the first actuator 315 is parallel to the hinge axis of the first drive arm 312 and the first shaft 22, and both are parallel to the hinge axis of the support arm 13 and the first shaft 22.
[0086] When adjusting the pitch angle of the central control screen 4, the first telescopic component 311 is activated, causing the first actuator 315 of the first telescopic component 311 to move. This causes the first actuator 315 to drive the first drive arm 312, which in turn pulls or pushes the first shaft 22. As a result, the first shaft 22 drives the connecting body 21 and the central control screen 4 to rotate around the hinge axis between the support arm 13 and the first shaft 22. At the same time, the second shaft 23 and the second telescopic structure 32 rotate relative to each other, thereby achieving the adjustment of the pitch angle of the central control screen 4.
[0087] Since the first telescopic component 311 is fixedly connected to the base 1, the stability of the first telescopic component 311 is increased, so as to ensure the smoothness of adjusting the tilt angle of the central control screen 4 and the smoothness of adjusting the tilt angle of the central control screen 4.
[0088] This application does not specifically limit the hinge connection method between the first drive arm 312 and the first actuator 315. Preferably, the first drive arm 312 is also connected to the first actuator 315 via a hinge shaft, and the central axis of the hinge shaft connecting the first drive arm 312 and the first actuator 315 is parallel to the central axis of the hinge shaft connecting the support arm 13 and the first shaft 22. This reduces the assembly difficulty of the rotating mechanism and also reduces the manufacturing cost of the rotating mechanism. In other embodiments, a hinge ball is provided at the end of the first drive arm 312 away from the first shaft 22, and the first actuator 315 is provided with a clamping arm for holding the hinge ball. The hinge ball can rotate relative to the clamping arm, so that the hinge connection between the first drive arm 312 and the first actuator 315 is achieved by the clamping cooperation between the hinge ball and the clamping arm.
[0089] In the second embodiment, the first telescopic structure 31 includes a first telescopic member 311, which has a movable first actuator 315. The first telescopic member 311 is hinged to the base 1, and the first actuator 315 is hinged to the first shaft 22. The hinge axis of the first telescopic member 311 and the base 1 is parallel to the hinge axis of the first actuator 315 and the first shaft 22, and is also parallel to the hinge axis of the support arm 13 and the first shaft 22. This allows the first telescopic member 311 to rotate relative to the base 1 when the first actuator 315 drives the first shaft 22 under the action of the first telescopic member 311. This ensures that the first telescopic structure 31 can drive the first shaft 22 to rotate around the hinge axis of the support arm 13 and the first shaft 22, thereby ensuring that the tilt angle of the central control screen 4 can be adjusted individually.
[0090] In other words, in this embodiment, by hinged the first telescopic member 311 to the base 1, the design of the first drive arm 312 can be eliminated, thereby reducing the number of components required for the rotating mechanism. This achieves the effect of facilitating the assembly of the rotating mechanism and improving the assembly efficiency of the rotating mechanism, while also reducing the production cost of the rotating mechanism.
[0091] This application does not impose specific limitations on the connection method between the second telescopic structure 32 and the base 1, or on the second telescopic structure 32 itself; it can adopt any of the following embodiments:
[0092] Implementation Method 1, in this implementation method, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The second telescopic structure 32 includes a second telescopic member 321 and a second drive arm 322. The second telescopic member 321 is fixedly connected to the base 1 and has a movable second actuator 325. The two ends of the second drive arm 322 are respectively hinged to the second actuator 325 and the second shaft 23, and the hinge axes at both ends of the second drive arm 322 are vertically arranged.
[0093] It should be noted that the "the hinge axes at both ends of the second drive arm 322 are set perpendicularly" mentioned above means that the hinge axis of the second drive arm 322 and the second actuator 325 is set perpendicular to the hinge axis of the second drive arm 322 and the second shaft 23, and the hinge axis of the second drive arm 322 and the second shaft 23 are set collinearly with the hinge axis of the support arm 13 and the first shaft 22, and the hinge axis of the second drive arm 322 and the second actuator 325 is set parallel to the central axis of the first shaft 22.
[0094] When adjusting the tilt angle of the central control screen 4, the second telescopic component 321 is activated to move the second actuator 325 of the second telescopic component 321. This causes the second actuator 325 to drive the second drive arm 322, which in turn pulls or pushes the second shaft 23. As a result, the second shaft 23 drives the connecting body 21 and the central control screen 4 to rotate around the central axis of the first shaft 22. At the same time, the first shaft 22 and the connecting body 21 rotate relative to each other, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the central control screen 4.
[0095] Since the second telescopic component 321 is fixedly connected to the base 1, the stability of the second telescopic component 321 is increased, so as to ensure the smoothness of adjusting the tilt angle of the central control screen 4 and the smoothness of adjusting the yaw angle of the central control screen 4.
[0096] This application does not specifically limit the hinge connection method between the second drive arm 322 and the second actuator 325. Preferably, the second drive arm 322 is also connected to the second actuator 325 via a hinge shaft, and the central axis of the hinge shaft connecting the second drive arm 322 and the second actuator 325 is parallel to the central axis of the first shaft 22. This reduces the assembly difficulty of the rotating mechanism and also reduces the manufacturing cost of the rotating mechanism. In other embodiments, a hinge ball is provided at the end of the second drive arm 322 away from the second shaft 23, and the second actuator 325 is provided with a clamping arm for holding the hinge ball. The hinge ball can rotate relative to the clamping arm, so that the hinge connection between the second drive arm 322 and the second actuator 325 is achieved by the clamping cooperation between the hinge ball and the clamping arm.
[0097] In the second embodiment, the second telescopic structure 32 includes a second telescopic member 321, which has a movable second actuator 325. The second telescopic member 321 is hinged to the base 1, and the second actuator 325 is hinged to the second shaft 23. The hinge axis of the second telescopic member 321 and the base 1 is parallel to the central axis of the first shaft 22. The hinge axis of the second actuator 325 and the second shaft 23 is perpendicular to the central axis of the first shaft 22 and is collinear with the hinge axis of the support arm 13 and the first shaft 22. This ensures that when the second actuator 325 drives the second shaft 23 under the action of the second telescopic member 321, the second telescopic member 321 can rotate relative to the base 1, so as to ensure that the second telescopic structure 32 can drive the second shaft 23 to rotate around the central axis of the first shaft 22, so as to ensure that the tilt angle of the central control screen 4 can be adjusted individually; at the same time, when the first shaft 22 rotates around the hinge axis between the support arm 13 and the first shaft 22, the second actuator 325 can also rotate relative to the second shaft 23, so as to ensure that the pitch angle of the central control screen 4 can be adjusted individually.
[0098] In other words, in this embodiment, by hinged the second telescopic member 321 to the base 1, the design of the second drive arm 322 can be eliminated, thereby reducing the number of components required for the rotating mechanism. This achieves the effect of facilitating the assembly of the rotating mechanism and improving the assembly efficiency of the rotating mechanism, while also reducing the production and manufacturing cost of the rotating mechanism.
[0099] This application does not specifically limit the structure of the first telescopic member 311, which can adopt any of the following embodiments:
[0100] Implementation Method 1, in this implementation method, refer to Figure 7 The first telescopic structure 31 includes a first telescopic member 311, which includes a first motor 313, a first lead screw 314, and a first actuator 315. The first lead screw 314 is driven to the output shaft of the first motor 313, and the first actuator 315 is threaded to the first lead screw 314.
[0101] It is understandable that the first actuator 315 has an internal thread that is threaded to the first lead screw 314.
[0102] When adjusting the pitch angle of the central control screen 4, the first motor 313 is started. The output shaft of the first motor 313 drives the first lead screw 314 to rotate, so that the first actuator 315 rotates relative to the first lead screw 314 under the action of the first drive arm 312. Then, the first actuator 315 moves along the axial direction of the first lead screw 314, so that the first actuator 315 drives the first drive arm 312, thereby driving the first drive arm 312 to drive the first shaft 22. The first shaft 22 drives the connecting body 21 and the central control screen 4 to rotate around the hinge axis of the support arm 13 and the first shaft 22, so as to realize the adjustment of the pitch angle of the central control screen 4.
[0103] Since the first telescopic member 311 includes a first motor 313, a first lead screw 314, and a first actuator 315, the output shaft of the first motor 313 can drive the first lead screw 314 to rotate, thereby driving the first actuator 315. Compared with solutions such as using a cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, or electric actuator, the length of the first telescopic member 311 can be reduced, so as to facilitate the miniaturization design of the rotating mechanism.
[0104] Preferably, the first actuator 315 is a rod-shaped structure, the central axis of the first actuator 315 is parallel to the central axis of the first lead screw 314, and the interior of the first actuator 315 has a first rod cavity, the cavity wall of the first rod cavity is provided with internal threads, and the first lead screw 314 is threaded into the first rod cavity.
[0105] This application does not impose specific limitations on the transmission connection method between the first lead screw 314 and the first motor 313. Preferably, the first lead screw 314 is coaxially fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first motor 313 to reduce the difficulty of the transmission connection between the first lead screw 314 and the first motor 313, and also to increase the connection stability between the first lead screw 314 and the first motor 313. In other embodiments, the first lead screw 314 can also be connected to the output shaft of the first motor 313 via a gearbox.
[0106] In the embodiment where the first telescopic member 311 is fixedly connected to the base 1, it is only necessary to fix the first motor 313 to the base 1; while in the embodiment where the first telescopic member 311 is hinged to the base 1, it is only necessary to hinge the first motor 313 to the base 1.
[0107] In the second embodiment, the first telescopic structure 31 includes a first telescopic member 311, which is a structure with a piston rod, such as an electric actuator, a cylinder, or a hydraulic cylinder, and the piston rod constitutes the first actuator 315, so as to facilitate the assembly of the first telescopic member 311.
[0108] In the embodiment where the first telescopic member 311 is fixedly connected to the base 1, it is only necessary to fix the electric actuator or cylinder or the cylinder body of the electric actuator to the base 1; while in the embodiment where the first telescopic member 311 is hinged to the base 1, it is only necessary to hinge the electric actuator or cylinder or the cylinder body of the electric actuator to the base 1.
[0109] This application does not specifically limit the structure of the second telescopic member 321, which can adopt any of the following embodiments:
[0110] Implementation Method 1, in this implementation method, refer to Figure 7 The second telescopic structure 32 includes a second telescopic member 321, which includes a second motor 323, a second lead screw 324, and a second actuator 325. The second lead screw 324 is driven to the output shaft of the second motor 323, and the second actuator 325 is threaded to the second lead screw 324.
[0111] Understandably, the second actuator 325 has an internal thread that is threaded to the second lead screw 324.
[0112] When adjusting the tilt angle of the central control screen 4, the second motor 323 is started. The output shaft of the second motor 323 drives the second lead screw 324 to rotate, so that the second actuator 325 rotates relative to the second lead screw 324 under the action of the second drive arm 322. This causes the second actuator 325 to move along the axial direction of the second lead screw 324, so that the second actuator 325 drives the second drive arm 322, thereby driving the second shaft 23. The second shaft 23 drives the connecting body 21 and the central control screen 4 to rotate around the central axis of the first shaft 22, so as to adjust the tilt angle of the central control screen 4.
[0113] Since the second telescopic member 321 includes a second motor 323, a second lead screw 324, and a second actuator 325, the output shaft of the second motor 323 can drive the second lead screw 324 to rotate, thereby driving the second actuator 325. Compared with solutions such as using a cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, or electric actuator, the length of the second telescopic member 321 can be reduced, so as to facilitate the miniaturization design of the rotating mechanism.
[0114] Preferably, the second actuator 325 is a rod-shaped structure, the central axis of the second actuator 325 is parallel to the central axis of the second lead screw 324, and the interior of the second actuator 325 has a second rod cavity, the cavity wall of the second rod cavity is provided with internal threads, and the second lead screw 324 is threaded into the second rod cavity.
[0115] This application does not impose specific limitations on the transmission connection method between the second lead screw 324 and the second motor 323. Preferably, the second lead screw 324 is coaxially fixedly connected to the output shaft of the second motor 323 to reduce the difficulty of the transmission connection between the second lead screw 324 and the second motor 323, and also to increase the connection stability between the second lead screw 324 and the second motor 323. In other embodiments, the second lead screw 324 can also be connected to the output shaft of the second motor 323 via a gearbox.
[0116] In the embodiment where the second telescopic member 321 is fixedly connected to the base 1, it is only necessary to fix the second motor 323 to the base 1; while in the embodiment where the second telescopic member 321 is hinged to the base 1, it is only necessary to hinge the second motor 323 to the base 1.
[0117] In the second embodiment, the second telescopic structure 32 includes a second telescopic member 321. The second telescopic member 321 is a structure with a piston rod, such as an electric actuator, a cylinder, or a hydraulic cylinder. The piston rod constitutes the second actuator 325, so as to facilitate the assembly of the second telescopic member 321.
[0118] In the embodiment where the second telescopic member 321 is fixedly connected to the base 1, it is only necessary to fix the electric actuator or cylinder or the cylinder body of the electric actuator to the base 1; while in the embodiment where the second telescopic member 321 is hinged to the base 1, it is only necessary to hinge the electric actuator or cylinder or the cylinder body of the electric actuator to the base 1.
[0119] Regarding the aforementioned embodiment where the first telescopic member 311 includes a first motor 313, a first lead screw 314, and a first actuator 315, and the first motor 313 is fixedly connected to the base 1, the following improvements can be made:
[0120] In a preferred embodiment, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The first telescopic structure 31 includes a first telescopic member 311, which includes a first lead screw 314 and a first actuator 315 threadedly connected to the first lead screw 314. The cross-section of the first actuator 315 is non-circular. The base 1 is provided with a first limiting hole 11 that matches the cross-sectional shape of the first actuator 315. The first actuator 315 passes through the first limiting hole 11.
[0121] Understandably, the outer peripheral surface of the first actuator 315 contacts the wall of the first limiting hole 11.
[0122] Since the first actuator 315 passes through the first limiting hole 11, the hole wall of the first limiting hole 11 can be used to support the first actuator 315, thereby increasing the stability of the first actuator 315. At the same time, it can increase the load that the first actuator 315 can withstand in the vertical direction, thereby increasing the connection stability between the central control screen 4 and the central control console through the rotating mechanism.
[0123] Furthermore, since the cross-sectional shape of the first actuator 315 is non-circular, and the first limiting hole 11 is adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the first actuator 315, the outer peripheral surface of the first actuator 315 can be used to cooperate with the hole wall of the first limiting hole 11 to limit the first actuator 315, so as to avoid the first actuator 315 having a tendency to rotate around its own circumference when it rotates relative to the first lead screw 314. At the same time, it can also reduce the torque borne by the connection position of the first actuator 315 and the first drive arm 312 and the connection position of the first drive arm 312 and the first shaft 22 when the first actuator 315 and the first lead screw 314 rotate relative to each other, so as to ensure the smoothness of the rotation of the first actuator 315 and the first drive arm 312 relative to each other and the smoothness of the rotation of the first drive arm 312 and the first shaft 22 relative to each other.
[0124] Preferably, the cross-section of the first actuator 315 perpendicular to its own length direction is square, and the shape of the first limiting hole 11 is also square, so as to reduce the manufacturing difficulty of the first actuator 315.
[0125] This application does not specify the location of the first limiting hole 11. Preferably, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The first limiting hole 11 is located on the end wall of the base 1 near the connecting body 21. That is, at least a portion of the first telescopic member 311 is located at the end of the first limiting hole 11 away from the connecting body 21, so as to facilitate the miniaturization of the rotating mechanism. In other embodiments, the base 1 is provided with an L-shaped arm, and the first limiting hole 11 is located on the L-shaped arm. That is, at least a portion of the first telescopic member 311 is located between the L-shaped arm and the base 1.
[0126] Regarding the aforementioned embodiment where the second telescopic member 321 includes a second motor 323, a second lead screw 324, and a second actuator 325, and the second motor 323 is fixedly connected to the base 1, the following improvements can be made:
[0127] In a preferred embodiment, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6The second telescopic structure 32 includes a second telescopic member 321, which includes a second lead screw 324 and a second actuator 325 threadedly connected to the second lead screw 324. The cross-section of the second actuator 325 is non-circular. The base 1 is provided with a second limiting hole 12 that matches the cross-sectional shape of the second actuator 325. The second actuator 325 passes through the second limiting hole 12.
[0128] Understandably, the outer peripheral surface of the second actuator 325 contacts the wall of the second limiting hole 12.
[0129] Since the second actuator 325 passes through the second limiting hole 12, the hole wall of the second limiting hole 12 can be used to support the second actuator 325, thereby increasing the stability of the second actuator 325. At the same time, it can increase the load that the second actuator 325 can withstand in the vertical direction, thereby increasing the connection stability between the central control screen 4 and the central control console through the rotating mechanism.
[0130] Furthermore, since the cross-sectional shape of the second actuator 325 is non-circular, and the cross-sectional shape of the second limiting hole 12 is adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the second actuator 325, the outer peripheral surface of the second actuator 325 can be used to cooperate with the hole wall of the second limiting hole 12 to limit the second actuator 325, so as to avoid the second actuator 325 having a tendency to rotate around its own circumference when it rotates relative to the second lead screw 324. At the same time, it can also reduce the torque borne by the connection position of the second actuator 325 and the second drive arm 322 and the connection position of the second drive arm 322 and the second shaft 23 when the second actuator 325 and the second lead screw 324 rotate relative to each other, so as to ensure the smoothness of the relative rotation of the second actuator 325 and the second drive arm 322 and the relative rotation of the second drive arm 322 and the second shaft 23.
[0131] Preferably, the cross-section of the second actuator 325 perpendicular to its own length direction is square, and the shape of the second limiting hole 12 is also square, so as to reduce the manufacturing difficulty of the second actuator 325.
[0132] This application does not specify the location of the second limiting hole 12; preferably, refer to... Figure 5 and Figure 6 The second limiting hole 12 is located on the end wall of the base 1 near the connecting body 21. In other words, at least a portion of the second telescopic member 321 is located at the end of the second limiting hole 12 away from the connecting body 21, thus facilitating the miniaturization of the rotating mechanism. In other embodiments, the base 1 has an L-shaped arm, and the second limiting hole 12 is located on the L-shaped arm. That is, at least a portion of the second telescopic member 321 is located between the L-shaped arm and the base 1.
[0133] Regarding the embodiment where the first telescopic member 311 is fixedly connected to the base 1, the following improvements can be made:
[0134] In a preferred embodiment, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The first telescopic structure 31 includes a first telescopic member 311, the first telescopic member 311 includes a first actuator 315, the base 1 is provided with a first limiting hole 11 and a first limiting body 111 surrounding the first limiting hole 11, and the first actuator 315 passes through the first limiting hole 11 and the first limiting body 111.
[0135] It is understood that the first limiting body 111 is fixedly connected to the base 1. The first limiting body 111 has a hole structure through which the first actuator 315 passes, and the hole structure is adapted to the shape of the first actuator 315 and the wall of the hole structure contacts the outer peripheral surface of the first actuator 315.
[0136] Since the first actuator 315 passes through the first limiting hole 11 and the first limiting body 111, and the first limiting body 111 is arranged around the first limiting hole 11, it can increase the contact area between the first actuator 315 and the base 1, thereby increasing the support effect of the base 1 on the first actuator 315, and further increasing the load that the first actuator 315 can bear in the vertical direction, so as to further increase the connection stability of the central control screen 4 and the central control console through the rotating mechanism. On the other hand, it can also increase the limiting effect of the base 1 on the first actuator 315, so as to further reduce the torque borne by the connection position of the first actuator 315 and the first drive arm 312 and the connection position of the first drive arm 312 and the first shaft 22 when the first actuator 315 and the first lead screw 314 rotate relative to each other, so as to further ensure the smoothness of the relative rotation of the first actuator 315 and the first drive arm 312 and the first shaft 22.
[0137] This application does not specify a particular method for fixing the first limiting body 111 to the base 1. Preferably, the first limiting body 111 is integrally formed into the base 1. This increases the connection stability between the first limiting body 111 and the base 1 and reduces the number of parts required to assemble the rotating mechanism, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the rotating mechanism. In other embodiments, the first limiting body 111 can also be fixedly connected to the base 1 by screws or snap-fit.
[0138] Regarding the embodiment where the second telescopic member 321 is fixedly connected to the base 1, the following improvements can be made:
[0139] In a preferred embodiment, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6The second telescopic structure 32 includes a second telescopic member 321, the second telescopic member 321 includes a second actuator 325, the base 1 is provided with a second limiting hole 12 and a second limiting body 121 surrounding the second limiting hole 12, and the second actuator 325 passes through the second limiting hole 12 and the second limiting body 121.
[0140] It is understood that the second limiting body 121 is fixedly connected to the base 1. The second limiting body 121 has a hole structure through which the second actuator 325 passes, and the hole structure is adapted to the shape of the second actuator 325 and the wall surface of the hole structure contacts the outer peripheral surface of the second actuator 325.
[0141] Since the second actuator 325 passes through the second limiting hole 12 and the second limiting body 121, and the second limiting body 121 is arranged around the second limiting hole 12, it can increase the contact area between the second actuator 325 and the base 1, thereby increasing the support effect of the base 1 on the second actuator 325, and further increasing the load that the second actuator 325 can bear in the vertical direction, so as to further increase the connection stability of the central control screen 4 and the central control console through the rotating mechanism. On the other hand, it can also increase the limiting effect of the base 1 on the second actuator 325, so as to further reduce the torque borne by the connection position of the second actuator 325 and the second drive arm 322 and the connection position of the second drive arm 322 and the second shaft 23 when the second actuator 325 and the second lead screw 324 rotate relative to each other, so as to further ensure the smoothness of the relative rotation of the second actuator 325 and the second drive arm 322 and the second shaft 23.
[0142] This application does not specify a particular method for fixing the second limiting body 121 to the base 1. Preferably, the second limiting body 121 is integrally formed into the base 1. This increases the connection stability between the second limiting body 121 and the base 1 and reduces the number of parts required for assembling the rotating mechanism, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the rotating mechanism. In other embodiments, the first limiting body 111 can also be fixedly connected to the base 1 by screws or snap-fit.
[0143] This application does not specifically limit the positional relationship between the first telescopic member 311 and the base 1, and it can adopt any of the following embodiments:
[0144] Implementation Method 1, in this implementation method, refer to Figure 3 At least a portion of the first telescopic structure 31 is located on the side of the base 1 away from the connector 21, thereby enabling at least a portion of the first telescopic structure 31 to overlap with the base 1 in the direction close to or away from the connector 21, so as to further reduce the volume of the rotating mechanism and further achieve the effect of facilitating the miniaturization design of the rotating mechanism.
[0145] In the embodiments where the first telescopic member 311 includes a first motor 313, a first lead screw 314, and a first actuator, the first motor 313 can be disposed on the side of the base 1 away from the connecting seat; while in the embodiments where the first telescopic member 311 includes an electric push rod, a cylinder, or a hydraulic cylinder, at least a portion of the cylinder body of the electric push rod, cylinder, or hydraulic cylinder can be disposed on the side of the base 1 away from the connecting seat.
[0146] In the second embodiment, the first telescopic member 311 is located on the side of the base 1 facing the connector 21.
[0147] This application does not specifically limit the positional relationship between the second telescopic member 321 and the base 1, and it can adopt any of the following embodiments:
[0148] Implementation Method 1, in this implementation method, refer to Figure 3 At least a portion of the second telescopic structure 32 is located on the side of the base 1 away from the connector 21, thereby enabling at least a portion of the second telescopic structure 32 to overlap with the base 1 in the direction close to or away from the connector 21, so as to further reduce the volume of the rotating mechanism and further achieve the effect of facilitating the miniaturization design of the rotating mechanism.
[0149] In the embodiments where the second telescopic member 321 includes a second motor 323, a second lead screw 324, and a second actuator 325, the second motor 323 can be disposed on the side of the base 1 away from the connecting seat; while in the embodiments where the second telescopic member 321 includes an electric push rod, a cylinder, or a hydraulic cylinder, at least a portion of the cylinder body of the electric push rod, cylinder, or hydraulic cylinder can be disposed on the side of the base 1 away from the connecting seat.
[0150] In the second embodiment, the second telescopic member 321 is located on the side of the base 1 facing the connector 21.
[0151] This application does not specifically limit the positional relationship between the first motor 313 and the base 1. Preferably, refer to Figure 3 The first telescopic structure 31 includes a first telescopic member 311, which includes a first motor 313. The first motor 313 is located on the side of the base 1 away from the connecting body 21, thereby enabling at least a portion of the first actuator 315 and the first lead screw 314 to overlap with the base 1 in the direction close to or away from the connecting body 21. This further reduces the volume of the rotating mechanism, thereby facilitating the miniaturization of the rotating mechanism. At the same time, the first limiting hole 11 can be provided on the end wall of the base 1 facing the connecting body 21 to simplify the structural design of the base 1 and reduce the design cost of the rotating mechanism.
[0152] Of course, in other embodiments, the first motor 313 may be positioned on the side of the base 1 facing the connector 21.
[0153] This application does not specifically limit the positional relationship between the second motor 323 and the base 1. Preferably, refer to... Figure 3 The second telescopic structure 32 includes a second telescopic member 321, which includes a second motor 323. The second motor 323 is located on the side of the base 1 away from the connecting body 21, thereby enabling at least a portion of the second actuator 325 and the second lead screw 324 to overlap with the base 1 in the direction close to or away from the connecting body 21. This further reduces the volume of the rotating mechanism, thereby facilitating the miniaturization of the rotating mechanism. At the same time, the second limiting hole 12 can be provided on the end wall of the base 1 facing the connecting body 21 to simplify the structural design of the base 1 and reduce the design cost of the rotating mechanism.
[0154] Of course, in other embodiments, the second motor 323 may be disposed on the side of the base 1 facing the connector 21.
[0155] This application does not specifically limit the structure of the connector 21 or the positional relationship between the first shaft 22, the second shaft 23 and the connector 21. Preferably, refer to Figure 2 The connector 21 has an annular portion 211, and the first shaft 22 and the second shaft 23 are both located inside the annular portion 211, and both ends of the first shaft 22 and the second shaft 23 pass through the wall of the annular portion 211.
[0156] It is understandable that the cross-sectional shape of the annular part 211 is circular.
[0157] Since the first shaft 22 and the second shaft 23 are both located inside the annular portion 211, the first shaft 22 and the second shaft 23 can be hidden to improve the appearance quality of the rotating mechanism. Since both ends of the first shaft 22 and the second shaft 23 are inserted through the wall of the annular portion 211, the first shaft 22 and the second shaft 23 can be rotatably connected to the connecting body 21. On the other hand, the structural design of the connecting body 21 can be simplified to reduce the design cost of the rotating mechanism.
[0158] The better one is to refer to Figure 2 The inner wall of the annular portion 211 is provided with ribs 213 corresponding to the first shaft 22 and the second shaft 23. The two ends of the first shaft 22 and the second shaft 23 are respectively inserted through their respective ribs 213 to increase the connection area between the first shaft 22 and the second shaft 23 and the annular portion 211, thereby increasing the connection stability between the first shaft 22 and the second shaft 23 and the connecting body 21, and further increasing the stability of the central control screen 4 installed on the central control table through the rotating mechanism.
[0159] In other embodiments, the connector 21 may also be a block structure, with its first shaft 22 and second shaft 23 both located outside the connector 21.
[0160] This application does not specify the method of forming the mounting position; preferably, refer to... Figure 2 A mounting portion 212 is provided on the side of the connector 21 facing away from the base 1. The mounting portion 212 has a mounting plane, which forms a mounting position to increase the connection area between the central control screen 4 and the connector 21, thereby increasing the connection stability between the central control screen 4 and the connector 21. In other embodiments, the side of the connector 21 facing away from the base 1 is provided with multiple protrusions, and the protrusions are provided with holes for screws to pass through, so that the multiple protrusions together form a mounting position.
[0161] Reference Figure 8 and Figure 10 This application also discloses a display device, which includes a central control screen 4 and a rotating mechanism as described above, wherein the central control screen 4 is mounted in a mounting position.
[0162] Because the display device in this application uses the aforementioned rotating mechanism, the tilt angle and yaw angle of the central control screen 4 are adjusted without affecting each other, so that the user can easily adjust the central control screen 4 to the best viewing and operating angle, thereby improving the user experience.
[0163] This application also discloses a vehicle including a center console and a rotating mechanism as described above or a display device as described above, with a base 1 mounted on the center console.
[0164] Because the vehicle in this application uses the aforementioned rotating mechanism or display device, it is possible to individually adjust the pitch and yaw angles of the central control screen 4, so that users can easily adjust the central control screen 4 to the optimal viewing and operating angle, thereby improving the user experience.
