Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of thermostats, specifically a thermostat with knob and touch screen control. Background Technology

[0002] Thermostats, widely used in homes, offices, and industrial environments, primarily monitor and regulate ambient temperature to achieve a comfortable living experience or meet specific process requirements. With technological advancements, the human-machine interface of modern thermostats has become increasingly diverse, evolving from early mechanical knobs and buttons to today's touchscreen controls, and even hybrid control modes combining the advantages of both, to cater to the operating habits of different user groups. Thermostats with both knob and touchscreen controls retain the intuitiveness and quick adjustment of knob operation while offering the richness of function integration and interface display of touchscreen operation, making them one of the mainstream products in the market.

[0003] Existing technologies have the following shortcomings: Current thermostats generally use a plastic elastic clip structure to fix the panel and wiring base. This structure requires forceful pressing to deform and engage the clips during installation, and disassembly requires prying with tools to further deform them. Prolonged or improper disassembly can easily lead to fatigue fracture of the brittle plastic clips, damaging the panel or base, affecting product lifespan and after-sales service convenience. Furthermore, to prevent accidental touches and dust accumulation, thermostats are equipped with a transparent protective cover, but existing covers are mostly simple flip-top or sliding structures, their opening and closing entirely dependent on manual operation by the user. In actual use, users often forget to close the cover after touchscreen operation, leaving the touch panel exposed for extended periods. This easily accumulates dust and oil, and may even cause scratches from hard objects, affecting aesthetics and touch sensitivity. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a temperature controller with both knob and touchscreen control to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0021] This utility model provides a technical solution: such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in this embodiment, a temperature controller with knob and touch screen control includes a wiring housing 1, in which a controller and a temperature sensor are disposed. Multiple sets of heat dissipation holes 2 are formed on the surface of the wiring housing 1 for heat dissipation. A connecting component is disposed on one side of the wiring housing 1 for connecting and installing the wiring housing 1 and the touch screen 3. A protective component is disposed on one side of the wiring housing 1 for protecting the touch screen 3. The touch screen 3 is disposed on one side of the wiring housing 1 for precise temperature control. A control knob 4 is disposed on one side of the touch screen 3 for temperature control. A touch button 5 is disposed on one side of the touch screen 3 for controlling the temperature controller. Users can control the temperature controller through the touch screen 3, control knob 4, and touch button 5, thereby achieving precise control of equipment operation.

[0022] like Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the connecting assembly includes a mounting port 6, multiple sets of magnetic bases 7, and multiple sets of locking rods 10. The mounting port 6 is opened on the surface of the wiring housing 1 for mounting and fixing the wiring housing 1. The multiple sets of magnetic bases 7 are symmetrically installed on the inner wall of the wiring housing 1 for limiting the position of the touch screen 3. Two sets of elastic retaining strips 8 are symmetrically installed on the inner wall of the magnetic base 7. The surface of the elastic retaining strips 8 has multiple sets of grooves 9 for locking and limiting the position of the locking rods 10. The multiple sets of locking rods 10 are symmetrically installed on the back of the touch screen 3. Magnetic plates 11 are installed at the ends of the locking rods 10. The magnetic plates 11 are correspondingly arranged with the magnetic bases 7. The cross-section of the magnetic base 7 is L-shaped. The groove 9 and the locking rod 10 are correspondingly set. After connecting the wiring housing 1 and the power cord together, the user can pass the expansion bolt through the mounting port 6 and nail it into the wall to complete the installation and fixation of the wiring housing 1. Then, the magnetic plate 11 and the magnetic base 7 are attracted together, and the touch screen 3 is pushed to the left, causing the locking rod 10 to be locked between the elastic clips 8, thus completing the installation and fixation between the touch screen 3 and the wiring housing 1. When it is necessary to disassemble the touch screen 3 and the wiring housing 1, the user only needs to push the touch screen 3 to the right and then pull it outward to complete the disassembly of the touch screen 3 and the wiring housing 1. The operation is simple and facilitates the maintenance and replacement of the product.

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the protective assembly includes two sets of limiting grooves 12, a transparent protective cover 13, and a micro motor 16. The two sets of limiting grooves 12 are symmetrically opened at the top and bottom of the wiring housing 1 to limit the limiting pins 14 and ensure the horizontal movement of the transparent protective cover 13. The transparent protective cover 13 is fitted over the touch screen 3 to protect it and reduce accidental touches and dust accumulation. Multiple sets of limiting pins 14 are installed on the inner wall of the transparent protective cover 13, and multiple sets of teeth 15 are provided on the side wall of the transparent protective cover 13. The micro motor 16 is bolted to the inner wall of the wiring housing 1 to drive the transmission gear 17 to rotate. The transmission gear 17 is installed at the output end of the micro motor 16. The limiting pins 14 and the limiting grooves 12 are slidably disposed. The gear 17 meshes with the tooth 15 for transmission. When the touch screen 3 needs to be used, the user presses the touch button 5, and the controller controls the micro motor 16 to start. The micro motor 16 drives the transmission gear 17 to rotate clockwise several times. Under the limit of the tooth 15, the rotation of the transmission gear 17 drives the transparent protective cover 13 to move, which can release the seal on the touch screen 3, making it easier for the user to use the touch screen 3 and the control knob 4. When the touch screen 3 and the control knob 4 have not been used for a long time, the controller controls the micro motor 16, which drives the transmission gear 17 to rotate counterclockwise, causing the transparent protective cover 13 to reset and re-cover the touch screen 3 for protection, preventing the transparent protective cover 13 from being forgotten to be reset and closed, and achieving a good protective effect.

[0024] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
