Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of watch winder technology, specifically to an active silent watch winder. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing popularity of high-end mechanical watches, the functional requirements of watch winders, as key devices for maintaining the accuracy of mechanical watches, have expanded from simple automatic winding to include quiet operation, intelligent features, and optimized user experience. Existing technologies typically employ a fixed rotating disc structure, where the disc is driven by a motor to simulate wrist movement and provide continuous power to the mechanical watch. For details, refer to Chinese invention patent application CN202510242429.X, which discloses an intelligent watch winder and its control system. However, existing watch winders still suffer from the following significant drawbacks: 1. Inconvenient table retrieval operation The dial of existing watch winders is mostly fixed inside the base. Users need to manually open the protective cover (if any) and go deep into the base to operate when taking the watch out. This poses a risk of limited operating space and easy collision with the watch case, which is especially unfriendly to users wearing gloves or with hand inconvenience.

[0003] 2. Low level of intelligence In existing technologies, the opening of the protective cover and the launching of the turntable require physical buttons or manual operation, lacking automatic sensing and interaction functions, and cannot meet the needs of modern smart home scenarios for contactless operation.

[0004] 3. Noise problem is prominent. Traditional watch winders lack effective noise reduction design in their drive motor and turntable mechanism, and are prone to generating mechanical vibration noise during operation, which can cause interference to users, especially when used in quiet environments (such as bedrooms and offices).

[0005] 4. Insufficient dustproof sealing Most watch winders use an open or simple cover structure, which makes it easy for dust to enter the rotating area after long-term use. This not only affects the life of the device, but may also contaminate the precision watch. Utility Model Content

[0006] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides an active silent watch winder.

[0007] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: An active silent watch winder includes a housing, a drive device installed inside the housing, a turntable rotatably disposed on the front side of the housing and connected to the drive device, and a glass cover connected to both sides of the housing via a hinge mechanism. The front side panel of the housing is provided with a rotating opening, and the turntable is disposed in the rotating opening. The driving device includes a rotating mechanism and a telescopic mechanism. The rotating mechanism drives the turntable to rotate, and the telescopic mechanism drives the turntable to extend or retract. When the glass covers on both sides are opened, the telescopic mechanism drives the turntable to extend out of the rotating opening. When the glass covers on both sides are about to close, the telescopic mechanism first drives the turntable to retract back into the rotating opening, and then the rotating mechanism drives the turntable to rotate.

[0008] In this invention, the turntable is provided with a locking block for fixing the watch. The turntable has baffles on the left and right sides and notches on the top and bottom sides. The two ends of the locking block are respectively locked onto the baffles on both sides for fixing.

[0009] Furthermore, the baffles on both sides of the turntable are provided with groove structures arranged vertically, and the two sides of the locking block are provided with convex strip structures arranged vertically. The locking block is elastic and is slidably engaged in the groove structure through the convex strip structures on both sides.

[0010] In this utility model, the telescopic mechanism includes a fixed seat fixed on the inner wall of the box, a driver installed on the fixed seat, and a connecting seat installed on the driver. The driver includes a sliding seat, a slider slidably fitted on the sliding seat, and a drive motor installed at one end of the sliding seat. The drive motor drives the slider to slide on the sliding seat. The drive motor and the slider are transmitted through a lead screw transmission mechanism. The connecting seat is fixed on the slider. When the slider moves on the sliding seat, it drives the connecting seat to move.

[0011] Furthermore, the rotating mechanism includes a rotating motor, a reducer, a rotating shaft seat, and a rotating shaft mounted on a connecting seat. The output end of the rotating motor is connected to the reducer. The rotating shaft seat is fixed to the front end of the connecting seat. One end of the rotating shaft is connected to the output end of the reducer, and the other end passes through the rotating shaft seat and is connected to the turntable. The rotating shaft and the rotating shaft seat are rotatably engaged.

[0012] In this utility model, a controller is also provided on the front side panel of the box. The controller is connected to the drive device. The controller is equipped with a touch switch and multiple touch buttons. The touch switch controls the drive device to start or stop. Pressing the corresponding touch button can control the telescopic mechanism to move and drive the turntable to extend or retract, or control the rotation mechanism to drive the turntable to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise.

[0013] In this invention, the hinge mechanism includes a damping hinge and a small electric actuator. One end of the damping hinge is connected to the glass cover, and the other end is connected to the rear wall of the housing. One end of the small electric actuator is hinged to the damping hinge, and the other end is hinged to the rear wall of the housing. The small electric actuator is connected to a controller. The hinge mechanisms on both sides are symmetrically installed, and the small electric actuators on both sides are controlled by the controller to achieve synchronous movement.

[0014] In this invention, the glass covers on both sides of the enclosure are L-shaped and symmetrically arranged, specifically including a front glass covering the front of the enclosure and a side glass covering the side of the enclosure. The damping hinge is connected to the rear edge of the side glass. When the glass covers on both sides are closed, the two front glass covers the front panel of the enclosure. The glass covers are soundproof glass, and a sealing strip is provided on the side where the two front glass covers are closed.

[0015] This utility model has the following advantages and beneficial effects: 1. The rotating disc is automatically extended when the glass cover is opened by a telescopic mechanism. Combined with the notch, baffle and sliding locking block structure on the disc, users can easily take out and put in the watch without going deep into the case. It is especially suitable for users who wear gloves or have hand inconvenience. The sponge pad at the bottom of the disc can cushion the collision between the watch and the disc, further reducing the risk of operation.

[0016] 2. The controller is linked to the opening and closing of the glass cover, realizing contactless control of "opening the glass cover → the turntable automatically extends and pauses rotation" and "closing the glass cover → the turntable automatically retracts and starts rotating"; the touch switch and button design supports users to customize the rotation direction and start / stop, adapting to the needs of smart home scenarios.

[0017] 3. The soundproof glass cover reduces noise transmission. Combined with the low-vibration structure design of the screw drive and reducer in the drive device, it effectively reduces vibration noise during mechanical operation and is suitable for quiet environments such as bedrooms and offices.

[0018] 4. After the glass cover is closed, it covers the front panel of the case and forms a sealed space with the sealing strip on the edge of the front glass to prevent dust from entering the turntable area. This protects the delicate internal structure of the watch winder and prevents dust from contaminating the watch, thus extending the service life of the device and the watch.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment discloses an active silent watch winder, including a housing 1, a drive device 2 installed inside the housing 1, a turntable 3 rotatably disposed on the front side of the housing 1 and connected to the drive device 2, and glass covers 5 connected to both sides of the housing 1 via a hinge mechanism 4. The front side panel of the housing 1 is provided with a rotating opening 10, and the turntable 3 is disposed in the rotating opening 10. The drive device 2 includes a rotating mechanism 21 and a telescopic mechanism 22. The rotating mechanism 21 drives the turntable 3 to rotate, and the telescopic mechanism 22 drives the turntable 3 to extend or retract. Specifically, when the glass covers 5 on both sides are open, the telescopic mechanism 22 drives the turntable 3 to extend out of the rotating opening 10 to facilitate the removal or placement of the watch. After the watch is placed, when the glass covers 5 on both sides are about to close, the telescopic mechanism 22 drives the turntable 3 to retract back to the rotating opening 10. After the glass covers 5 are closed, the rotating mechanism 21 drives the turntable 3 to rotate, thereby winding the watch.

[0024] Furthermore, the turntable 3 is provided with a locking block 31 for fixing the watch. In use, the watch is first put on the locking block 31, and then the locking block 31 is locked into the turntable 3. The turntable 3 has baffles 32 on the left and right sides and notches 33 on the top and bottom sides. The two ends of the locking block 31 are respectively locked onto the baffles 32 on both sides for fixation. When the turntable 3 extends out of the rotating opening 10, the locking block 31 can be removed from the notch 33 for easy removal and placement of the watch. The bottom of the turntable 3 is also provided with a sponge pad 34. When the locking block 31 with the watch is locked into the turntable 3, the watch is pressed on the sponge pad 34 for protection.

[0025] Furthermore, the baffles 32 on both sides of the turntable 3 are provided with groove structures 320 arranged vertically, and the two sides of the locking block 31 are provided with convex strip structures 310 arranged vertically. The locking block 31 has a certain elasticity. The locking block 31 is slidably engaged in the groove structure 320 through the convex strip structures 310 on both sides, specifically the inner side of the baffle 32. The sliding engagement setting makes it easy to remove and fix the locking block 31, improving convenience.

[0026] In this embodiment, the telescopic mechanism 22 includes a fixed seat 221 fixed on the inner wall of the housing 1, a driver 222 mounted on the fixed seat 221, and a connecting seat 223 mounted on the driver 222.

The drive motor 2223 drives the slider 2222 to slide on the sliding seat 2221. The drive motor 2223 and the slider 2222 are transmitted through a screw transmission mechanism. The connecting seat 223 is fixed on the slider 2222. When the slider 2222 moves on the sliding seat 2221, it drives the connecting seat 223 to move.

[0027] Furthermore, the rotating mechanism 21 includes a rotating motor 211, a reducer 212, a rotating shaft seat 213, and a rotating shaft 214 mounted on the connecting seat 223. The output end of the rotating motor 211 is connected to the reducer 212. The rotating shaft seat 213 is fixed to the front end of the connecting seat 223. One end of the rotating shaft 214 is connected to the output end of the reducer 212, and the other end passes through the rotating shaft seat 213 and is connected to the turntable 3. The rotating shaft 214 rotates in coordination with the rotating shaft 214.

[0028] In this embodiment, a controller 11 is also provided on the front side panel of the housing 1. The controller 11 is connected to the drive device 2. The controller 11 is equipped with a touch switch and multiple touch buttons. The touch switch controls the drive device 2 to start or stop. Pressing the corresponding touch button can control the telescopic mechanism 22 to move and drive the turntable 3 to extend or retract, or control the rotation mechanism 21 to drive the turntable 3 to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise. In addition, when the drive device 2 is in the open state, when the two glass covers 5 are closed, the telescopic mechanism 22 drives the turntable 3 to retract, and the rotation mechanism 21 starts to work. When the two glass covers 5 are opened, the rotation mechanism 21 stops, and the telescopic mechanism 22 drives the turntable 3 to extend. When the drive device 2 is in the closed state, when the two glass covers 5 are closed, the telescopic mechanism 22 drives the turntable 3 to retract, and the rotation mechanism 21 does not work. When the two glass covers 5 are opened, the telescopic mechanism 22 drives the turntable 3 to extend.

[0029] Furthermore, the hinge mechanism 4 includes a commonly available damping hinge 41 and a small electric actuator 42. One end of the damping hinge 41 is connected to the glass cover 5, and the other end is connected to the rear wall of the housing 1. One end of the small electric actuator 42 is hinged to the damping hinge 41, and the other end is hinged to the rear wall of the housing 1. The small electric actuator 42 is connected to the controller 11. In addition, the hinge mechanisms 4 on both sides are symmetrically installed, and the small electric actuators 42 on both sides are controlled by the controller 11 to achieve synchronous movement.

[0030] Furthermore, the glass covers 5 on both sides of the enclosure 1 are L-shaped and symmetrically arranged, specifically including a front glass 51 covering the front of the enclosure 1 and a side glass 52 covering the side of the enclosure 1.
