Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of touch panel technology, specifically to a touch panel with a protective structure. Background Technology

[0002] As a convenient human-computer interaction device, the touch panel is a sensor-type liquid crystal display device that can receive input signals from touch and other sources. In modern industrial production, touch panels are widely used in various machine tools and equipment, greatly improving the convenience and efficiency of operation.

[0003] Traditional touch panel protective plates mostly use clips for locking. After long-term use, the clips are prone to loosening or damage, resulting in the protective plate not being able to lock effectively and failing to provide reliable protection for the touch panel. In addition, traditional touch panel installation methods usually use bolts for direct fixation. During installation and disassembly, tools are needed to tighten or loosen the bolts one by one, which is cumbersome and time-consuming. Therefore, a touch panel with a protective structure is proposed to improve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a touch panel with a protective structure. By setting a locking component and a quick-release component, it solves the problems of traditional touch panel protective plates that mostly use buckles for locking. After long-term use, the buckles are prone to loosening or damage, resulting in the protective plate not being able to be effectively locked and unable to provide reliable protection for the touch panel. In addition, the traditional touch panel installation method usually uses bolts for direct fixing. During the installation and disassembly process, tools are needed to tighten or loosen the bolts one by one, which is cumbersome and time-consuming.

[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model is a touch panel with a protective structure, including a protective frame, a locking assembly, and a quick-release assembly. The touch panel body is installed on the protective frame, and a protective plate is hinged to the opening of the protective frame. The locking assembly includes a connecting plate, a support plate, and a spring. The connecting plate is installed on the protective frame and has a limit hole. The support plate is installed on the protective plate and has a limit rod that slides on it. After rotating 90°, the limit rod abuts against the connecting plate. A circular plate is installed on the limit rod, one end of the spring is installed on the circular plate, and the other end of the spring is installed on the support plate. The quick-release assembly is located on the protective frame.

[0007] Furthermore, two through holes are provided on the support plate, and the limiting rod slides into the through holes. A knob is installed on the limiting rod.

[0008] Furthermore, the quick-release assembly includes a base plate and a T-shaped plate. The base plate has a T-shaped groove, the T-shaped plate is mounted on the protective frame, and the T-shaped plate slides in the T-shaped groove. Both the base plate and the T-shaped plate have corresponding round holes, and a stepped rod is fitted into the round hole. A limit ring is threaded onto the stepped rod.

[0009] Furthermore, the thinner end of the stepped rod is provided with an external thread structure.

[0010] Furthermore, the limiting rod is T-shaped, with one end of the T-shape engaging with the limiting hole.

[0011] Furthermore, the support plate is U-shaped.

[0012] Furthermore, the protective frame and the protective panel are connected by hinges.

[0013] Furthermore, the protective plate has rectangular holes, and a transparent acrylic sheet is installed inside the rectangular holes.

[0014] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. This utility model solves the problem that traditional touch panel protective plates mostly use buckles for locking, which are prone to loosening or damage after long-term use, resulting in the protective plate not being able to be effectively locked and thus not providing reliable protection for the touch panel. By setting a locking component, one end of the T-shaped limit rod is inserted into the limit hole until it is completely inserted through the limit hole. Then the limit rod is rotated 90° and the knob is released, so that the spring drives the limit rod to contact the connecting plate.

[0016] 2. This utility model, by setting a quick-release component, allows the step rod to be pulled out of the round hole by directly unscrewing the limiting ring, and then the T-shaped plate on the protective frame to slide out of the T-shaped groove, thus completing the disassembly of the protective frame and the base plate. This solves the problem that the traditional touch panel installation method usually uses bolts for direct fixing, and requires tools to tighten or loosen the bolts one by one during the installation and disassembly process, which is cumbersome and time-consuming.

[0017] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a touch panel with a protective structure, including a protective frame 1, a locking component 4, and a quick-release component 5. The touch panel body 2 is installed on the protective frame 1 by embedding. A protective plate 3 is hinged to the opening of the protective frame 1. The protective frame 1 and the protective plate 3 are connected by a hinge. The hinge allows the protective plate 3 and the protective frame 1 to open and close flexibly. When the protective plate 3 is closed, the protective plate 3 and the protective frame 1 together form a relatively closed space, which can prevent dust, liquid and other impurities from entering the interior of the touch panel body 2, extend the service life of the touch panel body 2, protect the touch panel body 2, and prevent the operator from accidentally touching the touch panel body 2.

[0026] The protective plate 3 has a rectangular hole 301, and a transparent acrylic plate is fixedly installed inside the rectangular hole 301. The rectangular hole 301 and the transparent acrylic plate inside the protective plate 3 provide protection while allowing users to observe the display content of the touch panel body 2 without opening the protective plate 3, thus improving the convenience of use.

[0027] Locking assembly 4 includes a connecting plate 401, a support plate 403, and a spring 406. The connecting plate 401 is bolted to the protective frame 1, and a limit hole 402 is formed on the connecting plate 401. The support plate 403 is bolted to the protective plate 3, and the support plate 403 is U-shaped. The T-shaped structure ensures a certain strength while providing space for the sliding of the limiting rod 404. The limiting rod 404 slides on the support plate 403. The limiting rod 404 is T-shaped, with one end of the T-shape engaging with the limiting hole 402. After rotating 90°, the limiting rod 404 abuts against the connecting plate 401. A circular plate 405 is welded onto the limiting rod 404. One end of the spring 406 is welded onto the circular plate 405, and the other end is welded onto the support plate 403. The spring 406 provides elastic force to the limiting rod 404. After the limiting rod 404 is inserted into the limiting hole 402, the spring 406 keeps the limiting rod 404 in contact with the connecting plate 401, ensuring the stability of the locking of the protective plate 3.

[0028] The support plate 403 has two through holes 407. The limiting rod 404 slides in the through holes 407. The through holes 407 allow the limiting rod 404 to slide smoothly on the support plate 403. A knob 408 is installed on the limiting rod 404 by bolts.

[0029] The quick-release assembly 5 is mounted on the protective frame 1. The quick-release assembly 5 includes a base plate 501 and a T-shaped plate 503. The base plate 501 is mounted on the machine tool by bolts. The base plate 501 has a T-shaped groove 502. The T-shaped structure design gives the T-shaped plate 503 good guidance and stability during sliding, and it can be accurately aligned with the base plate 501, ensuring the accurate alignment of the round hole 504. This facilitates the subsequent insertion and fixing of the stepped rod 505. At the same time, the T-shaped groove 502 can also prevent the T-shaped plate 503 from shaking in the horizontal direction, enhancing the stability of the entire structure. The T-shaped plate 503 is mounted on the protective frame 1 by bolts. The T-shaped plate 503 slides in the T-shaped groove 502. The base plate 501 and the T-shaped plate 503 both have corresponding round holes 504. A stepped rod 505 is fitted into the round hole 504. The thinner end of the stepped rod 505 has an external thread structure, and a limit ring 506 is threaded into the stepped rod 505.

[0030] When the touch panel body 2 needs to be installed on a machine tool, firstly, the substrate 501 is installed on the machine tool with bolts. Then, the T-shaped plate 503 on the protective frame 1 is slid into the T-shaped groove 502, aligning the round holes 504 on the substrate 501 and the T-shaped plate 503. Next, the stepped rod 505 is inserted into the round holes 504 until it passes through all the round holes 504. Finally, the limiting ring 506 is screwed onto the external thread of the thinner end of the stepped rod 505 to fix the protective frame 1 onto the substrate 501, thereby installing the touch panel body 2 on the machine tool. When it is necessary to disassemble the touch panel body 2, simply unscrew the limit ring 506, pull the step rod 505 out of the round hole 504, and then slide the T-shaped plate 503 on the protective frame 1 out of the T-shaped groove 502. This completes the disassembly of the protective frame 1 and the base plate 501, achieving the effect of quick disassembly and assembly of the touch panel body 2. This solves the problem that the traditional touch panel installation method usually uses bolts for direct fixing, and requires tools to tighten or loosen the bolts one by one during the installation and disassembly process, which is cumbersome and time-consuming.

[0031] When it is necessary to close the protective plate 3 to protect the touch panel body 2, first rotate the protective plate 3 around the hinge to the closed position with the protective frame 1. At this time, pull the knob 408 on the limiting rod 404 to make the limiting rod 404 slide in the through hole 407 against the elastic force of the spring 406. Insert the T-shaped end of the limiting rod 404 into the limiting hole 402 on the connecting plate 401 until the T-shaped end of the limiting rod 404 completely penetrates the limiting hole 402. Then rotate the limiting rod 404 90° and release the knob 408, so that the spring 406 drives the limiting rod 404 to abut against the connecting plate 401, thereby locking the protective plate 3 onto the protective plate 1. This solves the problem that traditional touch panel protective plates mostly use buckles for locking, and the buckles are prone to loosening or damage after long-term use, resulting in the protective plate not being able to be effectively locked and unable to provide reliable protection for the touch panel.
