[0025] The console provided in this application includes a console body 100 and an operation panel 200. One side of the operation panel 200 is connected to the console body 100 via a connecting component 400. The connecting component 400 enables the operation panel to be moved away from the console body 100 as a whole, so that the operation space required for maintaining the console is formed between the operation panel 200 and the console body 100.

[0026] The side of the control panel 200 that is connected to the platform 100 is the connection side 210, and the connection component 400 can move the connection side 210 away from the platform 100.

[0027] Combination Figure 1 As shown, when the operation panel 200 is closed, the entire operation panel 200 is housed within the platform 100 or mounted on the surface of the platform 100, in conjunction with... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the platform 100 may have an opening, and the operation panel 200 covers the opening of the platform 100. When the operation panel 200 is opened, the operation panel 200 is completely away from the platform 100, and a maintenance space is formed between the operation panel 200 and the platform 100.

[0028] The connecting component 400 is disposed between the operation panel 200 and the platform 100. The connecting component 400 can be disposed on any side of the operation panel 200. The side of the operation panel 200 connected to the platform 100 is the connecting side 210. One end of the connecting component 400 is connected to the connecting side 210 of the operation panel 200, and the other end is connected to the platform 100.

[0029] Multiple connecting components 400 can be provided on one side of the operation panel 200, or multiple connecting components 400 can be provided on multiple sides of the operation panel 200, so that the operation panel 200 can be opened and closed smoothly, and it is beneficial to the stable connection between the operation panel 200 and the platform 100.

[0030] The operation panel 200 and the display screen 300 are mounted on the platform 100. Specifically, the operation panel 200 and the display screen 300 are mounted on the same side of the platform 100.

[0031] The connecting component 400 of this application enables the connecting side 210 of the operating panel 200 to be away from the platform 100 when the operating panel 200 is opened. The operating panel 200 can be opened to a maintenance position, forming a maintenance space between the operating panel 200 and the platform 100. Maintenance personnel can directly perform operations. The opening angle is larger, making it more convenient for operators to perform maintenance and inspection, greatly improving the convenience and efficiency of maintenance work. The clear vision and ample operating space greatly reduce the risk of accidental touch and damage caused by obstructed vision and limited operation, ensuring the safety of personnel and equipment.

[0032] The console provided in this application can be used as a stage lighting console.

[0033] In some embodiments, the connection component 400 includes a multi-axis hinge, one side of the operation panel 200 is connected to the platform 100 via the multi-axis hinge, one end of the multi-axis hinge is hinged to the connection side of the operation panel 200, and the other end of the multi-axis hinge is hinged to the platform 100.

[0034] Multiple multi-axis hinges can be provided on one side of the control panel 200, or multiple multi-axis hinges can be provided on multiple sides of the control panel 200, so that the control panel 200 can be opened and closed smoothly, and it is beneficial to the stable connection between the control panel 200 and the platform 100.

[0035] Combination Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the multi-axis hinge is a three-axis hinge, which includes a first arm 410 and a second arm 420. One end of the first arm 410 is rotatably connected to one end of the second arm 420, and the other end of the first arm 410 is rotatably connected to one side of the operation panel 200. The other end of the second arm 420 is rotatably connected to the platform 100. The two ends of the second arm 420 can rotate around axis A and axis B, respectively, and the two ends of the first arm 410 can rotate around axis B and axis C, respectively. The first arm 410 and the second arm 420 share a common hinge axis B. The operation panel 200 can rotate around axis C, and the second arm 420 is hinged to the platform 100 at axis A. The three-axis hinge can significantly increase the opening angle of the operation panel 200, allowing the operation panel 200 to move away from the platform 100 at multiple angles, creating a larger maintenance space between the operation panel 200 and the platform 100, and significantly improving maintenance efficiency.

[0036] Specifically, the three-axis hinge includes two second arms 420 and one first arm 410. The first arm 410 is sandwiched between the two second arms 420, which is beneficial to the structural stability of the three-axis hinge. The two second arms 420 are symmetrically arranged, which allows the force to be evenly distributed on the two second arms 420, avoiding excessive torque on a single arm, reducing local wear, and preventing deformation of a single arm due to long-term force concentration.

[0037] Specifically, the second arm 420 is provided with a hinge post that rotates along the A-axis and is inserted into the platform 100. The first arm 410 and the second arm 420 are provided with hinge holes centered on the B-axis and are hinged by a hinge post inserted into the solid line. The other end of the first arm 410 is provided with a hinge hole centered on the C-axis for the hinge post of the connecting side 210 to be inserted.

[0038] Specifically, the connecting side 210 is provided with two three-axis hinges to facilitate the smooth opening and closing of the operation panel 200. The two three-axis hinges are symmetrically arranged to prevent the operation panel 200 from tilting and shaking when opening and closing.

[0039] In some embodiments, the connecting assembly 400 includes a telescopic structure for moving the operation panel 200 closer to or further away from the platform 100. The telescopic structure may be a sleeve-type telescopic rod, a cylinder, a guide rail assembly, etc., to extend or retract the operation panel 200 along the telescopic direction of the telescopic structure.

[0040] In some embodiments, the connecting component 400 includes a telescopic structure and a hinged structure, one end of the telescopic structure being hinged to the operation panel 200 and the other end of the telescopic structure being fixed to the platform 100; or one end of the telescopic structure being hinged to the platform 100 and the other end of the telescopic structure being fixed to the operation panel 200; or one end of the telescopic structure being hinged to the operation panel 200 and the other end being hinged to the platform 100.

[0041] Specifically, if one side of the operation panel 200 is hinged to one end of the connecting component 400, the operation panel 200 can be extended through the telescopic structure first, and then the operation panel 200 can be rotated around the hinge structure to further expand the maintenance space of the operation panel 200.

[0042] Alternatively, one end of the connecting component 400 can be hinged to the platform 100, allowing the operation panel 200 to be extended through the telescopic structure first, and then the operation panel 200 and the telescopic structure to be rotated around the hinge structure, further expanding the maintenance space of the operation panel 200.

[0043] Alternatively, one side of the operation panel 200 is hinged to one end of the connecting assembly 400, and the other end of the connecting assembly 400 is hinged to the platform 100. The operation panel 200 is first extended via a telescopic structure, and then the operation panel 200 can be selectively rotated around the hinge structure, or both the operation panel 200 and the telescopic structure can be rotated around the hinge structure, further expanding the maintenance space of the operation panel 200. Specifically, the hinge can be configured as a shaft-hole fit.

[0044] The connecting component 400 can be a gooseneck tube, with its two ends connected to the operation panel 200 and the platform 100, respectively. When the operation panel 200 is closed, the gooseneck tube is housed between the operation panel 200 and the platform 100. When the operation panel 200 is open, the gooseneck tube allows the operation panel 200 to be moved away from the platform 100 from multiple angles as a whole, so that a maintenance space is formed between the operation panel 200 and the platform 100.

[0045] The two ends of the gooseneck tube can be hinged to the control panel 200 and the platform 100, so that the control panel 200 can rotate relative to the platform 100.

[0046] The connecting component 400 can be a slide rail set on both sides of the operation panel 200. When the operation panel 200 is opened, it slides out along the slide rail, so that the operation panel 200 is completely away from the platform 100, and a maintenance space is formed between the operation panel 200 and the platform 100.

[0047] Furthermore, a hinged slider can be provided between the operation panel 200 and the slide rail, so that the connecting side 210 of the operation panel 200 forms a rotating arm. This not only allows the operation panel 200 to be moved away from the platform 100, but also allows the operation panel 200 to rotate around the slider, thereby creating a larger maintenance space and facilitating maintenance and inspection.

[0048] In some embodiments, the connecting assembly 400 includes a damping hinge. The friction between the damping hinges allows for stepless adjustment. The torque of the damping hinge is selected based on the weight of the control panel 200, ensuring that the control panel 200 can open and close slowly without requiring excessive force due to excessive damping. When closed, the damping hinge also slowly returns to its original position, preventing the control panel 200 from making hard contact with the platform. Furthermore, the damping hinge allows the panel to remain at any angle, facilitating parameter adjustments and maintenance by the operator at that angle.

[0049] Combination Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the platform 100 is provided with a clearance groove 110 for accommodating at least a portion of the connecting component 400. The connecting component 400 is disposed between the operation panel 200 and the platform 100. When the operation panel 200 is closed, at least a portion of the connecting component 400 is accommodated in the clearance groove 110, ensuring that the operation panel 200 fits seamlessly with the platform 100 in the closed state, improving structural compactness and preventing light leakage; at the same time, it avoids the connecting component 400 occupying extra space, optimizes the space utilization of the control console, eliminates the risk of exposure of the connecting component 400, and has a protective function.

[0050] When the connecting component 400 is a three-axis hinge, and the operation panel 200 is in the closed state, the three-axis hinge is fully accommodated in the clearance groove 110.

[0051] When the connecting assembly 400 includes a telescopic structure, the telescopic structure is at least partially accommodated in the clearance groove 110.

[0052] Combination Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, in some embodiments, the connecting side of the operation panel 200 includes a protrusion 220, and the platform 100 is provided with a mounting groove 120. The protrusion 220 is used to insert into the mounting groove 120, and the mounting groove 120 is used to accommodate at least a portion of the protrusion 220 when the operation panel 200 is closed, to form a labyrinth structure. When the operation panel 200 is closed, the operation panel 200 is first placed in a position parallel to the mounting groove 120, and then the operation panel 200 is pushed into the mounting groove 120 so that at least a portion of the protrusion 220 is inserted into the mounting groove 120, making the connection between the operation panel 200 and the platform 100 more stable and less prone to loosening, and making the connection between the operation panel 200 and the platform 100 tight, seamless, and less prone to light leakage. When it is necessary to open the operation panel 200, the protrusion 220 is first slid out along a direction parallel to the mounting groove 120, and then the operation panel 200 is moved so that the entire operation panel 200 is away from the platform 100. When the control panel 200 is closed, the protrusion 220 and the mounting groove 120 cooperate to form a maze structure. Dust from the outside of the platform 100 needs to enter between the control panel 200 and the platform 100 through the maze structure. The maze structure has multiple reversing paths, making it difficult for dust to enter, thus providing good dust prevention. When light leaks between the control panel 200 and the platform 100, it also needs to leak through the maze structure. The maze structure increases the reversing of the light path, making it more difficult for light to leak, thus providing good light leakage prevention.

[0053] Combination Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the console includes a support arm 500 for supporting the control panel 200 between the control panel 200 and the platform 100 when the control panel 200 is open. The support arm 500 is used to prevent the control panel 200 from falling back when opened. The support arm 500 may be a single rod, with both ends of the support arm 500 supporting the platform 100 and the control panel 200 only when the control panel 200 is open, to prevent the control panel 200 from falling back.

[0054] A first support portion 510 is provided at the end of the platform 100 that contacts the support arm 500, and a second support portion 520 is provided at the end of the operation panel 200 that contacts the support arm 500. The support arm 500 may have hinge shafts or hinge holes at both ends. The first support portion 510 and the second support portion 520, corresponding to the two ends of the support arm 500, provide hinge holes or hinge shafts to facilitate the support function of the support arm 500. Furthermore, when the operation panel 200 is closed, the support arm 500 can be detached for easy storage.

[0055] Specifically, one end of the support arm 500 is rotatably connected to the platform 100, or one end of the support arm 500 is rotatably connected to the operation panel 200. The support arm 500 is a rod, with a hinge shaft in the first support portion 510 and a hole in the second support portion 520. The support arm 500 is hinged to the first support portion 510, and the other end of the support arm 500 has a bent section for insertion into the hole in the second support portion 520. The platform 100 is also provided with a storage portion 530, which has a U-shaped structure. When the operation panel 200 is closed, the bent end of the support arm 500 is placed in the U-shaped structure of the storage portion 530. When the operation panel 200 is opened, the end of the support arm 500 hinged to the first support portion 510 rotates around the hinge shaft, and the other end of the support arm 500 is inserted into the hole in the second support portion 520, facilitating support and preventing the operation panel 200 from falling back. When the control panel 200 is closed, it facilitates the storage and maintenance of the support arm 500. It is understood that the second support portion 520 may be provided with a hinge shaft, the first support portion 510 may be provided with a hole, the support arm 500 may be hinged to the second support portion 520, and the other end of the support arm 500 may have a bent section for insertion into the hole of the first support portion 510.

[0056] In some embodiments, the connecting component 400 includes a limiting structure. When the connecting component 400 includes a hinge structure, the limiting structure may be a limiting block. A limiting block may be provided on the outside of the hinge seat, and the hinge arm will fit against the blocking surface of the limiting block, thereby locking the maximum opening angle of the operation panel 200.

[0057] When the connecting assembly 400 includes a telescopic structure, the limiting structure can be a snap-fit. For example, if the telescopic structure includes multiple telescopic rods, a spring snap-fit ​​can be provided at the end of one of the telescopic rods. When the telescopic rod is extended outward to its maximum stroke, the protruding part of the spring snap-fit ​​will engage with the positioning groove of another rod, preventing the telescopic rod from extending further. Multiple positioning grooves can be provided on one of the telescopic rods to achieve precise limiting at multiple positions, meeting different operating distance requirements.

[0058] The embodiments of this application have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, this application is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of this application. Furthermore, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.
