[0030] The realization of the purpose, functional features and advantages of this utility model will be further explained in conjunction with the embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. Detailed Implementation

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0032] This utility model proposes a waterproof touch screen.

[0033] Reference Figures 1 to 5 ,include;

[0034] A waterproof housing 11 is fixedly connected to a suction cup 12 for detachable and fixed connection to the bathroom wall.

[0035] Two levers 13 are rotatably connected to the inner side of the waterproof housing 11, and a torsion spring is provided between each lever 13 and the inner side of the waterproof housing 11.

[0036] Waterproof cover 14, the inner side of waterproof cover 14 is slidably engaged with the outer side of waterproof shell 11, waterproof cover 14 is engaged with each lever 13, and a transparent film 15 is adhered to waterproof cover 14.

[0037] Support base 16, which is hinged to the inside of the waterproof housing 11;

[0038] The linkage mechanism is used to adjust the angle of the support base 16 through the relative sliding action between the waterproof housing 11 and the waterproof cover 14;

[0039] The connection between the waterproof cover and the waterproof housing enables the touchscreen, which is placed between them, to be waterproof, allowing users to continue using it while showering, thus improving its practicality. Furthermore, through a linkage mechanism, users can adjust the rotation angle of the support base simply by moving the waterproof cover and the waterproof housing relative to each other. This ensures the support base remains stable when the touchscreen is mounted on it, facilitating adjustments to the touchscreen's relative position and guaranteeing stability and user experience. This not only enhances the device's flexibility but also ensures the touchscreen's operability and ease of use.

[0040] Reference Figures 2 to 5 The participating organizations include:

[0041] The first linkage column 21 is rotatably connected to the waterproof housing 11, and the support base 16 is fixedly connected to the first linkage column 21 at one end near the first linkage column 21.

[0042] Two linkage blocks 22 are fixedly connected to both sides of the first linkage column 21;

[0043] Two second linkage columns 23 are threadedly connected to the waterproof cover 14, and each second linkage column 23 abuts against the side of the adjacent linkage block 22.

[0044] The positioning plate 24 is hinged to the waterproof housing 11 and the waterproof cover 14. The end of the positioning plate 24 near the waterproof cover 14 slides and abuts against the inner wall of the waterproof cover 14.

[0045] Through the linkage mechanism, the user can adjust the flip angle of the support base 16 simply by the relative movement of the waterproof cover 14 and the waterproof housing 11. This ensures that the support base 16 remains stable when the touch screen is installed on it, facilitating the user's adjustment of the relative position of the touch screen. Furthermore, the support base 16 is tilted at this time, ensuring that the touch screen is in close contact with the side of the tilted support base 16 during installation, preventing it from falling off during and after installation and ensuring its stability. After the waterproof cover 14 and the waterproof housing 11 are assembled, the touch screen is waterproofed. The user can then operate the touch screen between the waterproof cover 14 and the waterproof housing 11 through the transparent film 15, improving usability. When the waterproof cover 14 and the waterproof housing 11 are separated again, opening the waterproof cover 14 causes the touch screen to tilt along with the support base 16, making it easier for the user to handle and extending the lifespan and versatility of the touch screen in various usage scenarios.

[0046] Reference Figures 2 to 4 The waterproof cover 14 has a limiting groove 141 and a locking groove 142 on its inner wall, and the limiting groove 141 and the locking groove 142 are connected.

[0047] The limiting groove 141 is used to ensure the stability of the waterproof cover 14 after it moves up and engages with the lever 13. The function of the locking groove 142 is that when the waterproof cover 14 is pressed towards the waterproof housing 11, the locking plate 24 slides from the limiting groove 141 into the locking groove 142, so that the waterproof cover 14 can move down after being pressed to a sufficient distance. This offsets the radius difference of the circumferential movement of the locking plate 24. That is, when the locking plate 24 flips upward, the relative height of the upper end of the locking plate 24 will increase. The locking groove 142 is set to offset this part of the reaction force, and then the connection between the waterproof housing 11 and the waterproof cover 14 is more convenient and stable.

[0048] Reference Figures 1 to 3 Limiting strips 31 are fixedly connected to both sides of the waterproof housing 11, and locking strips 32 are fixedly connected to both sides of the inner wall of the waterproof cover 14 to limit the limiting strips 31.

[0049] The connection between the limiting strip 31 and the locking strip 32 limits the connection between the waterproof housing 11 and the waterproof cover 14. Then, the torsion spring on the lever 13 will exert a force on the waterproof cover 14 away from the waterproof housing 11 through the lever 13. This force makes the connection between the locked waterproof housing 11 and the waterproof cover 14 tighter, ensuring the sealing performance after the waterproof housing 11 and the waterproof cover 14 are connected.

[0050] Reference Figures 1 to 2 and Figure 5Each lever 13 has a positioning groove 131, and the waterproof cover 14 has two snap-fit ​​grooves 143. The inner wall of each positioning groove 131 snaps into the inner wall of each snap-fit ​​groove 143.

[0051] Due to the action of the torsion spring, each of the levers 13 is in a straight state when no external force is applied, that is, the long side of each lever 13 is parallel to the upper side of the waterproof housing 11. When the waterproof housing 11 separates from the waterproof cover 14, it pushes the waterproof cover 14 to move upward relative to the waterproof housing 11 until the limiting strip 31 and the locking strip 32 disengage. The torsion spring will then cause each lever 13 to exert a force on the waterproof cover 14 away from the waterproof housing 11. Then the waterproof cover 14 continues to move upward until each lever 13 is in a fixed position. The inner wall of the positioning groove 131 engages with the inner walls of each locking groove 143. At this time, the lever 13 limits the relative movement of the waterproof cover 14 through the positioning groove 131, so that the waterproof cover 14 remains stable under the action of the lever 13 and the locking plate 24. At this time, the user places the touch screen on the support base 16. Under the weight of the touch screen, the support base 16 will, through the squeezing action of the linkage block 22 on the second linkage column 23, cause the waterproof cover 14 to rotate around the point where the locking plate 24 is hinged to the waterproof housing 11. However, due to The engaging action of the inner walls of each positioning groove 131 and the inner walls of each snap-fit ​​groove 143 ensures that the relative position of the waterproof cover 14 does not change, thereby guaranteeing the stability of the touch screen body mounted on the support base 16. Then, the user needs to apply force to the waterproof cover 14, causing it to move towards the waterproof housing 11. This allows the waterproof cover 14 to slide out of the positioning groove 131 along the inclined side and then move downwards, bringing the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​groove 143 into contact with the side of the dial plate 13. At this point, the waterproof cover 14... The downward movement will cause the lever 13 to flip. After the lever 13 flips to a certain angle, the positioning groove 131 and the slot 143 no longer match in shape. Therefore, the positioning groove 131 will not limit the movement of the waterproof cover 14, so that the waterproof cover 14 can be stably placed on the waterproof housing 11. During this movement, the touch screen body also changes with the flip of the support base 16. Finally, the touch screen body is placed between the waterproof housing 11 and the waterproof cover 14 after the snap-fit ​​is completed, so as to cooperate with the user's use during the bathing process.

[0052] Reference Figures 1 to 2 The support base 16 is hollow, and support plates 17 are slidably hinged to both sides of the support base 16. The end of each support plate 17 away from the support base 16 is hinged to the bottom surface of the waterproof shell 11.

[0053] The hollow design of the support base 16 effectively reduces its weight and optimizes the flow of air and liquid. The hollow design allows for freer airflow, promoting heat dissipation and drying on the surface of the support base 16. This improves the effectiveness of the touchscreen and support base 16 in high-temperature or humid environments. Better heat dissipation effectively reduces the operating temperature of the device, preventing performance degradation or malfunctions due to overheating. Simultaneously, the drying effect ensures that the surface of the support base 16 remains dry when lifted, facilitating user operation. The support plate 17 not only provides stable support for the support base 16 but also controls its rotation angle through a limiting action, ensuring the stability and safety of the support base 16 during use.

[0054] Reference Figures 1 to 2 The waterproof housing 11 and the waterproof cover 14 are respectively provided with a first inclined surface 41 and a second inclined surface 42 that are inclined downward in the direction away from the suction cup 12. The upper inner wall of the waterproof cover 14 is provided with a third inclined surface 43 for fitting with the first inclined surface 41.

[0055] When the waterproof housing 11 and waterproof cover 14 are open, the water droplets formed by bathroom steam can drain better along the first inclined surface 41 and the second inclined surface 42, allowing the surfaces of the waterproof housing 11 and waterproof cover 14 to dry better. When the waterproof housing 11 and waterproof cover 14 are engaged, the water in the bathroom can flow better through the second inclined surface 42, preventing water from accumulating on the waterproof housing 11 and waterproof cover 14 and ensuring the waterproof effect of the waterproof housing 11 and waterproof cover 14.
