[0022] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an embodiment of this application discloses a protective cover for an intelligent controller, including an intelligent controller body 1. The surface of the intelligent controller body is provided with a button control area and a display area 2. The surface of the intelligent controller is provided with a protective cover 3 covering the upper surface of the button control area. One end of the protective cover 3 is a hinge end. The upper and lower ends of the hinge end are respectively provided with a first connecting post 4 and a second connecting post 5. The intelligent controller body 1 is respectively provided with a first slot 6 and a second slot 7 that cooperate with the first connecting post 4. When the first connecting post 4 extends into the second slot 7 and the second connecting post 5 extends into the second slot 7, the protective cover 3 is rotatably connected to the intelligent controller body 1.

[0024] The depth of the first slot 6 is greater than that of the second slot 7. When the protective cover 3 moves upward, the second connecting post 5 can be pulled out from the second slot 7. When the protective cover 3 moves downward, the first connecting post 4 cannot be pulled out from the first slot 6.

[0025] Specifically, in the above structure, the design of the first connecting post 4 and the second connecting post 5 allows the protective cover 3 to be rotated and opened on the intelligent controller body 1, which is convenient for user operation and ensures the stability of the protective cover 3. When it is necessary to open the protective cover 3, the user only needs to rotate the protective cover 3 around the first connecting post 4 and the second connecting post 5. When it is necessary to remove the protective cover 3, the user needs to move the protective cover 3 upward, then pull the second connecting post 5 out of the second slot 7, and then pull the first connecting post 4 out of the first slot 6. When it is necessary to install the protective cover 3 back into the intelligent controller body 1, the user only needs to align the first connecting post 4 with the first slot 6 and insert it, then align the second connecting post 5 with the second slot 7 and insert it, and then rotate the protective cover 3 until it covers the surface of the button control area. This design not only simplifies the disassembly and assembly process of the protective cover 3, but also effectively prevents the protective cover 3 from accidentally falling off during the disassembly and assembly process, improving the safety and reliability of the product.

[0026] This application employs a unique slot design to ensure the safety of the protective cover 3 during use. Because the intelligent controller is vertically mounted, the depth difference between the first slot 6 and the second slot 7 effectively prevents the protective cover 3 from being accidentally removed or dropped, thus improving product reliability and user experience.

[0027] In this embodiment, both the first card slot 6 and the second card slot 7 include a fully enclosed slot and a semi-enclosed slot.

[0028] Specifically, the far ends of the first slot 6 and the second slot 7 are fully enclosed slots, and the near ends of the first slot 6 and the second slot 7 are semi-enclosed slots. This design makes it easier for the first connecting post 4 and the second connecting post 5 to be inserted or pulled out of the slots when the protective cover 3 is installed or removed. At the same time, during the rotation and opening of the protective cover 3, the cooperation of the fully enclosed slots and the semi-enclosed slots can effectively prevent the connecting posts from accidentally coming out of the slots, further improving the safety and reliability of the product.

[0029] In this embodiment, the control button area is provided with a master control button 8 that protrudes from the button control area, and the protective cover 3 is provided with a first protrusion hole 9 that allows the master control button 8 to protrude. The first protrusion hole 9 is a first horn hole, and one end of the large circular hole of the first horn hole is set towards the master control button 8.

[0030] Specifically, when the protective cover 3 is closed, due to the design of the first horn hole, the master control button 8 can be smoothly inserted from the large circular hole end of the first protrusion hole 9, which not only ensures the normal use of the master control button 8, but also avoids the interference of the protective cover 3 to the master control button 8.

[0031] In this embodiment, the master control button 8 is located inside the first protruding hole 9.

[0032] Specifically, the design of the above structure ensures that the master control button 8 is securely protected inside the first protruding hole 9 when the protective cover 3 is closed, avoiding accidental touch or damage to the master control button 8 by external factors. When it is necessary to press the master control button 8, an external tool such as a small stick can be inserted into the first protruding hole 9 to press the master control button 8, thereby reducing the operation of opening and closing the protective cover 3.

[0033] In this embodiment, a locking ring 10 protruding from the button control area is provided in the control button area, and a second protrusion hole 11 is provided on the surface of the protective cover 3 so that the locking ring 10 can extend out. When the protective cover 3 covers the surface of the button control area, the locking ring 10 extends out from the second protrusion hole 11.

[0034] Specifically, once the intelligent controller is installed, in order to prevent accidental opening of the protective cover 3, a lead seal can be passed through the locking ring 10 to lock the protective cover 3. This ensures that the protective cover 3 remains closed when no parameter adjustment is required, effectively preventing accidental operation.

[0035] In this embodiment, the second protruding hole 11 is a second horn hole, with one end of the small circular hole facing the button control area. This design facilitates the installation of the lead seal and also improves the aesthetics.

[0036] In this embodiment, the button control area has a recessed structure. When the protective cover 3 covers the surface of the button control area, the protective cover 3 is flush with the display area 2. This design not only improves the product's performance but also enhances its overall quality.

[0037] The overall aesthetics are enhanced by the protective cover 3, ensuring that users can clearly see the content in display area 2 without being distracted by it, thus improving the user experience. Furthermore, the recessed button control area design effectively prevents dust, moisture, and other environmental factors from contaminating and damaging the button control area, further extending the controller's lifespan.

[0038] In this embodiment, the other end of the protective cover 3 is a snap-fit ​​end, and a first snap-fit ​​12 is provided at the snap-fit ​​end. The intelligent controller body 1 is provided with a second snap-fit ​​that cooperates with the first snap-fit ​​12. When the first snap-fit ​​12 and the second snap-fit ​​are snapped together, there is a gap 13 between the second snap-fit ​​and the protective cover 3.

[0039] Specifically, the above design allows a person's hand or fingernail to be inserted into the gap 13 when it is necessary to open the protective cover 3, thus facilitating the opening of the protective cover 3.

[0040] In summary, the protective cover for the intelligent controller provided in this application has a reasonable structure and ingenious design. It not only facilitates user operation but also effectively prevents the protective cover 3 from accidentally falling off during the disassembly and assembly process, avoids damage to the controller from external factors, and improves the overall aesthetics and user experience of the product. It has high practical value and promotional value.
