[0048] The terms used in the implementation section of this application are only used to explain the specific embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application. The implementation of the embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0049] As shown in FIG1 , the driving mechanism a for driving the object b to fold or unfold in this embodiment can be applied to blinds, sunshades, retractable doors, etc., and the embodiment of the present application is not limited to this, nor is it limited to the application of the above examples.

[0050] FIG2 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the object b in the unfolded state in this embodiment;

[0051] FIG3 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the object b in the embodiment when it is in a folded state;

[0052] The following is an example of a blind:

[0053] It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, the driving mechanism a in the Venetian blinds can be set to at least one, two, three or more. For example, the driving mechanism a in Figure 1 is set to two, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the Venetian blinds to drive the blinds of the Venetian blinds to retract or expand.

[0054] As shown in Figure 4, the driving mechanism a of this embodiment includes a screw 1, a driving pulley 2, a transmission member 3 and a first driving device. One end of the transmission member 3 is rotatably connected to one side of the object b, and the other end of the transmission member 3 is rotatably connected to the driving pulley 2. The outer periphery of the screw 1 is provided with at least two sections of external thread grooves 11 with different pitches. The driving pulley 2 is arranged in the external thread groove 11. The first driving device drives the screw 1 to rotate. The screw 1 drives the driving pulley 2 to move along the external thread groove 11 through the external thread groove 11. The external thread groove 11 includes a small pitch area 11a and a large pitch area 11b. When the driving pulley 2 drives the object b to move from the small pitch area 11a to the large pitch area 11b, the object b performs an expansion movement. When the driving pulley 2 drives the animal b to move from the large pitch area 11b to the small pitch area 11a, the object b performs a retraction movement.

[0055] The first driving device may be, for example, a manual device, an electric motor, or a pneumatic device, etc. The embodiments of the present application are not limited to this, nor are they limited to the above examples.

[0056] Manual devices are manually operated and are usually actuated by a manual knob, handle or lever.

[0057] The working principle of this embodiment is:

[0058] When the present application unfolds the object b in the folded state to the unfolded state, the first driving device first drives the screw 1 to rotate. At this time, the driving pulley 2 in the small pitch area 11a drives the object b to move along the external thread groove 11 toward the large pitch area 11b, so that the object b unfolds. When the object b in the unfolded state needs to be folded together, the first driving device also drives the screw 1 to rotate in the opposite direction, so that the driving pulley 2 in the large pitch area 11b drives the object b to move along the external thread groove 11 toward the small pitch area 11a, thereby achieving the folding of the object b. Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present application are: (1) The present application adopts the method of the screw 1 and the external thread groove 11, which can provide higher precision and controllability. The external thread groove 11 with different pitches can achieve precise motion control, allowing the object b to be smoothly unfolded and folded. (2) Compared with the sprocket chain system, the chain needs to be lubricated and replaced regularly, which is not suitable for complex outdoor environments. The present application requires less maintenance, does not require lubrication, and can adapt to various complex outdoor environments.

[0059] As shown in FIG4 , the transmission member 3 in this embodiment is provided with first reinforcing ribs 31. The reinforcing ribs increase the rigidity and stability of the transmission member 3, particularly during long-distance transmission or high-load conditions. This helps reduce bending and deformation of the transmission member 3, ensuring a more stable and controllable motion process.

[0060] As shown in Figures 5 and 6, in this embodiment, the driving mechanism a also includes a guide device 5, which is used to assist the object b in guiding during the folding or unfolding movement. The guide device 5 includes a guide rail 51 and a guide pulley 52. ​​The guide pulley 52 is rotatably mounted on the transmission member 3, and the guide rail 51 is mounted on the outer shell 53.

[0061] As shown in Figure 7, three guide pulleys 52 are provided and arranged in a triangular pattern. The guide pulleys 52 can move relative to each other along the guide rail 51. The guide device 5 can ensure that the object b maintains a stable trajectory during the folding or unfolding movement. The cooperation between the guide pulley 52 and the rail can effectively reduce swaying and shaking, ensuring smooth movement. The three guide pulleys 52 are arranged in a triangular pattern to provide greater stability. They can balance the forces in all directions, prevent the guide pulley 52 from tilting or shaking during movement, and ensure that the guided object moves smoothly. The three guide pulleys 52 disperse the load so that it is evenly distributed on the guided object. This can reduce the load on a single guide pulley 52 and extend the life of the pulley and the guide device 5.

[0062] As shown in FIG8 to FIG9 , in this embodiment, the driving mechanism a further includes an angle adjustment device 6 , which is used to adjust the angle of the object b.

[0063] As shown in Figure 9, the angle adjustment device 6 includes a central rotating shaft 61, a first docking part 62, a second docking part 63 and an adjusting drive device 64. The central rotating shaft 61 is rotatably installed on the transmission member 3. One end of the central rotating shaft 61 is connected to the object b, and the other end of the central rotating shaft 61 is connected to the first docking part 62. The driving pulley 2 drives the first docking part 62 to move to the second docking part 63 through the transmission member 3. The first docking part 62 and the second docking part 63 are docked with each other. The adjusting drive device 64 can drive the second docking part 63 to rotate. The second docking part 63 drives the first docking part 62 to rotate. The first docking part 62 drives the object b to rotate through the central rotating shaft 61.

[0064] In this embodiment, the angle of the object b can be precisely adjusted by the angle adjustment device 6 to suit different needs and working scenarios. This can be used to adjust the direction, angle or degree of shading of light.

[0065] As shown in Figure 10, in this embodiment, the second docking portion 63 includes a docking seat 631, a docking shaft 632, a docking drive handle 633, and a connecting rod 634. One end of the docking shaft 632 is connected to the docking seat 631, and the other end of the docking shaft 632 is connected to the docking shaft 632. A first drive slider 635 is rotatably mounted near at least one end of the docking shaft 632. The first drive slider 635 is slidably mounted on the connecting rod 634. The adjustment drive device 64 can drive the connecting rod 634 to move up and down. The connecting rod 634 can drive the first drive slider 635 to rotate the docking drive handle 633, and the docking drive handle 633 can rotate the docking shaft 632 and the docking seat 631. In this embodiment, the connecting rod 634 mechanism can provide precise angle adjustment, ensuring that the object B is adjusted to the desired angle. The connecting rod 634 mechanism can achieve smooth angle adjustment movement, reducing instability and vibration. This helps maintain the smooth movement of the object B and avoid unexpected shaking.

[0066] In this embodiment, two connecting rods 634 are provided, arranged in parallel, and have an I-shaped cross-section. The I-shaped cross-section of connecting rod 634 provides high bending stiffness and resistance between two parallel axes. This enables connecting rod 634 to withstand large forces and torques without excessive bending or deformation.

[0067] As shown in FIG. 11 , in this embodiment, a docking groove 6311 is provided on the docking seat 631 corresponding to the first docking portion 62 .

[0068] In this embodiment, the first docking portion 62 can be inserted into the docking slot 6311 to mate with the second docking portion 63. The plug-in design allows for relatively easy insertion and removal of the first docking portion 62, which facilitates maintenance, replacement, or upgrades of the system. This removability can reduce the cost and workload of repairs and maintenance.

[0069] As shown in Figure 10, in this embodiment, the first docking part 62 includes a docking piece 621 and a docking roller 622. One side of the docking piece 621 is installed on the central rotating shaft 61, and the docking rollers 622 are symmetrically arranged on the other side of the docking piece 621. The docking rollers 622 can slide into the docking groove 6311 of the docking seat 631.

[0070] The sliding mechanism of the docking roller 622 provides smooth movement, reducing friction and resistance. This helps ensure that the angle adjustment of object B is smooth, avoiding unnecessary vibration or frictional losses. The sliding mechanism of the docking roller 622 provides smooth movement, reducing friction and resistance. This helps ensure that the angle adjustment of object B is smooth, avoiding unnecessary vibration or frictional losses. Rollers generally have good wear resistance, so they can maintain efficiency over long periods of use.

[0071] As shown in Figure 11, in this embodiment, the adjusting drive device 64 includes an adjusting drive handle 641, a driving shaft 642 and a driving assembly 643. The adjusting drive handle 641 is installed on the driving shaft 642. The adjusting drive handle 641 is connected to the connecting rod 634 through the second driving slider 644. The driving assembly 643 can drive the adjusting drive handle 641 to rotate around the driving shaft 642. The adjusting drive handle 641 drives the connecting rod 634 to perform lifting movements through the second driving slider 644.

[0072] As shown in Figure 12, in this embodiment, the driving assembly 643 includes a driving screw 6431, a driving nut 6432 and a driving protrusion 6433. The driving protrusion 6433 is installed on the driving nut 6432, and the driving nut 6432 is installed on the driving screw 6431. The driving screw 6431 can drive the driving nut 6432 to drive the driving protrusion 6433 to perform lifting motion. The raised portion of the driving protrusion 6433 cooperates with the driving groove of the adjusting driving handle 641. The driving protrusion 6433 performs lifting motion in the driving groove, thereby driving the adjusting driving handle 641 to rotate around the driving shaft 642.

[0073] In this embodiment, the device that drives the screw rod 6431 to rotate can be a manual device, an electric motor, a pneumatic device, etc. The embodiment of the present application is not limited to this, nor is it limited to the above examples.

[0074] As shown in Figure 11, in this embodiment, the drive assembly 643 also includes a guide assembly 645, which includes a guide protrusion 6451 and a guide plate 6452. The guide plate 6452 is provided with a guide groove 6453. The guide protrusion 6451 is mounted on the drive nut 6432. The raised portion of the guide protrusion 6451 cooperates with the guide groove 6453 to guide the lifting and lowering of the drive protrusion 6433. The design of the guide protrusion 6451 and the guide groove 6453 provides stable guidance, preventing the drive protrusion 6433 from shaking or deviating from its trajectory during the lifting process. This helps maintain the stability and performance of the system.
