Description

Remote control and control system Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of remote control technology, and in particular to a remote control and control system. Background Technology

[0002] Remote control products in related technologies are cumbersome to operate, lack flexibility, and are not very convenient to use. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of this, this application provides a remote control and control system.

[0004] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a remote controller, including:

[0005] The remote control itself;

[0006] A first component, which is movable relative to the remote control body to a folded position or an unfolded position;

[0007] The second component is movable relative to the remote control body to a folded position or an unfolded position;

[0008] The first component and the second component have different functions;

[0009] A linkage mechanism is simultaneously connected to both the first component and the second component to enable the first component and the second component to move to their respective folded or unfolded positions. The first component and the second component are selected from one or more of the display module, the joystick, and the antenna.

[0010] The remote control in this application embodiment incorporates a linkage mechanism that is simultaneously connected to a first component and a second component with different functions. The first and second components are selected from one or more of a display module, a joystick, and an antenna. This allows at least two components with different functions selected from the display module, joystick, and antenna to unfold or fold together. This simplifies the user's operation, enabling the components with different functions to quickly move to the unfolded or folded position required for use, thus improving the remote control's operational efficiency. For example, when the display module and joystick of the remote control are designed as foldable structures, operating the display module to control the joystick when the remote control is needed allows for the unfolding of both components in one operation. The display module and joystick can move together from the folded position to their respective unfolded positions, allowing the remote control to be ready more quickly and improving the efficiency of controlling the controlled device. For example, when the controlled device does not need to be operated with a remote control, the display module can drive the joystick. One operation step can realize the folding of the two parts. The display module and the joystick can move together from the unfolded position to their respective folded positions, which can make the remote control be stored more quickly and improve the user experience.

[0011] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide a remote controller, including:

[0012] The remote control itself;

[0013] A first component, which is movable relative to the remote control body to a folded position or an unfolded position;

[0014] The second component is movable relative to the remote control body to a folded position or an unfolded position;

[0015] The first component and the second component have different functions;

[0016] The first linkage mechanism is simultaneously connected to the first component and the second component in a transmission manner, so that the first component and the second component move to their respective folded or unfolded positions.

[0017] The remote control in this embodiment incorporates a first linkage mechanism that is simultaneously connected to a first component and a second component with different functions. This mechanism allows the first and second components to unfold or fold together, simplifying user operation and enabling the different components to move quickly to their desired unfolded or folded positions, thus improving operational efficiency. For example, when the remote control is needed to operate the controlled device, the first and second components can move together from their unfolded positions to their respective unfolded positions, allowing the remote control to be ready more quickly and improving the efficiency of operating the controlled device. Conversely, when the remote control is not needed to operate the controlled device, the first and second components can move together from their unfolded positions to their respective folded positions, allowing the remote control to be stored more quickly and enhancing the user experience.

[0018] Thirdly, embodiments of this application provide a remote controller, including:

[0019] The remote control itself;

[0020] A first connector is rotatably connected to the remote control body.

[0021] The second connector is rotatably connected to the first connector.

[0022] A first bracket is connected to the second connector, and the first bracket can be used to install and fix the display module.

[0023] The first bracket is connected to the remote control body via the first connector and the second connector, so that the first bracket can move to a folded position or an unfolded position relative to the remote control body.

[0024] In the remote control of this application embodiment, the two rotating joints constructed by the first connector and the second connector make the adjustment range of the display module larger and more flexible, which can better adapt to different operating environments (for example, avoid the influence of reflections at different angles) and also be suitable for more user groups with different operating habits (for example, different users can adjust the position of the display module according to their own comfortable posture).

[0025] Fourthly, embodiments of this application provide a remote controller, including:

[0026] The remote control itself;

[0027] Display module;

[0028] A first bracket is fixedly connected to the display module, and the first bracket is movable relative to the remote control body between a folded position and an unfolded position.

[0029] Detection component B is used to detect relevant information regarding whether the pose of the first bracket and / or the display module meets the first preset condition.

[0030] The processor is configured to trigger the display module to execute a power-on mode in response to the detection of relevant information by the detection element B that the pose of the first bracket and / or the display module meets a first preset condition.

[0031] The remote control in this application embodiment links the unfolding operation of the display module with the power-on operation of the display module, so that when the display module is unfolded, it can automatically control the display module to execute the power-on mode. This reduces the need for manual intervention and makes it simpler and faster to trigger the display module to execute the power-on mode via the remote control. This allows the remote control to quickly enter the ready state and improves the efficiency of using the remote control to control the controlled terminal to operate quickly.

[0032] Fifthly, embodiments of this application provide a control system, including a mobile platform and any of the aforementioned remote controllers, wherein the remote controller is used to control the mobile platform.

[0033] The control system of this application embodiment has at least the same advantages as the remote control, which will not be described in detail here.

Specific Implementation

[0082] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0083] The following detailed description of some embodiments of this application is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0084] Example 1

[0085] In some related remote controls, at least one component—the joystick, antenna, or screen—is designed to be movable relative to the remote control body. For example, at least one component with a different function—the joystick, antenna, or screen—can be designed as a foldable structure. When the remote control is not in use, such as when it is stored in a box or case, the corresponding component is folded, saving storage space and preventing it from protruding from the remote control's surface, thus reducing the risk of damage. When the remote control is needed, the corresponding component is simply moved from its folded position to its unfolded position.

[0086] However, when a remote control has two or more movable parts, the user needs to adjust each part from its folded position to its unfolded position one by one when using the remote control, or adjust each part from its unfolded position to its folded position when storing the remote control, which is cumbersome and time-consuming.

[0087] For example, in some remote controls, the joystick and antenna can move independently relative to the remote control body, switching between folded and unfolded positions. When the remote control is stored, the joystick and antenna are in their respective folded positions. When the remote control needs to be used, the joystick and antenna must be adjusted to their respective unfolded positions. Obviously, the user's operation steps include at least unfolding the joystick and unfolding the antenna, which is time-consuming and laborious. This is not conducive to scenarios where the controlled device needs to be controlled quickly, such as taking quick photos, like shooting fleeting scenes such as sunsets or fireworks, resulting in a poor user experience.

[0088] Specifically, the controlled end may include a mobile platform. Optionally, the mobile platform may be at least one of an aircraft, vehicle, ship, gimbal, and mobile robot, but is not limited thereto. Of course, the controlled end may also include other electronic devices, such as home appliances, gaming devices, computers, cameras, remote-controlled toys, etc. This application does not specifically limit the specific type of the controlled end in its embodiments.

[0089] To simplify the operation steps when using a remote control, this application embodiment designs a remote control with linkage motion characteristics. When using or storing the remote control, the user can operate one component to drive at least one other component, so that different components can move to the unfolded or folded position. One operation step can realize the unfolding or folding of different components, making it easier to start using the remote control or complete the storage more quickly and conveniently.

[0090] As shown in Figure 1, this remote control specifically includes a remote control body 10, a first component 20, a second component 30, and a linkage mechanism 230. The remote control body 10 includes a housing and an electronic control module such as a circuit board and a battery installed inside the housing. The remote control body 10 has a receiving cavity in which the circuit board, battery, and other electronic control modules can be housed. The first component 20 and the second component 30 are parts that have a mechanical connection with the remote control body 10, and each of the first component 20 and the second component 30 can move relative to the remote control body 10 to a corresponding folded or unfolded position. Each of the two components has a different function.

[0091] The linkage mechanism 230 is a mechanism that can transmit mechanical motion between different components. Under the connection of the linkage mechanism 230, one component located at the power input end of the linkage mechanism 230 can drive another component located at the power output end of the linkage mechanism 230 to move, without needing to provide separate driving power for each component. In this embodiment, the linkage mechanism 230 is simultaneously connected to both the first component 20 and the second component 30. When one component moves to its corresponding folded position, the linkage mechanism 230 drives the other component to move to the corresponding folded position as well. When one component moves to its corresponding unfolded position, the linkage mechanism 230 drives the other component to move to the corresponding unfolded position as well.

[0092] It should be noted that the transmission connection in the embodiments of this application refers to the indirect connection between different components through transmission mechanisms such as linkage mechanisms, gear mechanisms, chain mechanisms or belt mechanisms, or through intermediate connecting parts such as transmission shafts, so as to realize the transmission of motion.

[0093] For example, in some remote controls, the first component 20 and the second component 30 are selected from one or more of a display module, a joystick, and an antenna. For instance, when the first component 20 is a display module, the second component 30 can be at least one of a joystick and an antenna; when the first component 20 is a joystick, the second component 30 can be at least one of a display module and an antenna; when the first component 20 is an antenna, the second component 30 can be at least one of a display module and a joystick. It should be noted that the display module can be integrated into the remote control and is a display screen that is not detachable from the remote control body 10. Alternatively, the display module can be a mobile terminal device with a display screen, such as a mobile phone or tablet computer, that is detachably fixed to the remote control body 10.

[0094] Therefore, the remote control in this application embodiment, by setting a linkage mechanism 230 in the remote control, the linkage mechanism 230 is simultaneously connected to a first component 20 and a second component 30 with different functions. The first component 20 and the second component 30 are respectively selected from one or more of the display module, the joystick, and the antenna. This can realize the simultaneous unfolding or folding of at least two components with different functions selected from the display module, the joystick, and the antenna. This simplifies the user's operation steps and allows the components with different functions of the remote control to move to the unfolded or folded position that meets the usage requirements more quickly, which helps to improve the operating efficiency of the remote control.

[0095] For example, when the remote control's display module and joystick are designed to be foldable, operating the display module simultaneously with the joystick allows both components to unfold in a single step. The display module and joystick move together from their folded positions to their respective unfolded positions, enabling the remote control to be ready more quickly and improving the efficiency of controlling the device. Conversely, when the remote control is not needed, operating the display module simultaneously with the joystick allows both components to fold in a single step. The display module and joystick move together from their unfolded positions to their respective folded positions, allowing the remote control to be stored more quickly and enhancing the user experience.

[0096] Of course, if the display module, joystick, and antenna of the remote control are all designed to be foldable, operating one of the three will enable the other two to move in tandem, thus allowing all three to be opened or folded together, making it easier to start using the remote control or to put it away more quickly and conveniently.

[0097] Optionally, in one embodiment, the linkage mechanism 230 described above in this application embodiment can be simultaneously connected to the display module and the joystick to achieve linkage movement between the display module and the joystick. Specifically, when the joystick is the driving member and the display module is the driven member, when the user operates, for example, by pressing or pushing the joystick to switch between the folded and unfolded positions, the display module also switches between the corresponding folded and unfolded positions under the drive of the linkage mechanism 230. Conversely, when the display module is the driving member and the joystick is the driven member, when the user operates, for example, by pressing or pushing the display module to switch between the folded and unfolded positions, the joystick also switches between the corresponding folded and unfolded positions under the drive of the linkage mechanism 230. It should be noted that the driving member includes components connected to the power input end of the linkage mechanism, and the driven member includes components connected to the power output end of the linkage mechanism 230.

[0098] Therefore, during use, only the active component needs to be operated, and the driven component will automatically move in tandem, eliminating the need for separate operation of either component. This reduces operational steps and improves efficiency. The specific selection of the active and driven components can be adapted to the remote control's structural design. Optionally, if the joystick and display module's unfolding and / or folding interfere with each other—for example, if the joystick's folded position is below the display module's folded position—it's easier to operate, such as pushing the folded display module, than to operate the folded joystick. In this case, the display module can be used as the active component, and the joystick as the driven component. Optionally, if the joystick and display module's unfolding and folding do not interfere—for example, if the joystick's folded position is to the side of the display module—it's convenient to operate the folded joystick without interference from the display module. In this case, the joystick can be used as the active component, and the display module as the driven component.

[0099] On the one hand, this remote control features a foldable design for both the display module and the joystick, facilitating flexible operation and saving storage space. On the other hand, the remote control utilizes a linkage mechanism 230 to link the display module and the joystick. When one component is unfolded, the other unfolds simultaneously; when one component is folded, the other folds simultaneously. This simplifies both the unfolding and folding processes, making the operation of the remote control more convenient and efficient.

[0100] Optionally, in one embodiment, the linkage mechanism 230 described above in this application embodiment can be simultaneously connected to the display module, the joystick, and the antenna to achieve coordinated movement of the display module, the joystick, and the antenna. Specifically, when the joystick is the driving element, the display module and the antenna are the driven elements. When the joystick is pressed or pushed to switch between the folded and unfolded positions, the display module and the antenna also switch between the corresponding folded and unfolded positions under the drive of the linkage mechanism 230. When the display module is the driving element, the joystick and the antenna are the driven elements. When the display module is pressed or pushed to switch between the folded and unfolded positions, the joystick and the antenna also switch between the corresponding folded and unfolded positions under the drive of the linkage mechanism 230. When the antenna is the driving element, the joystick and the display module are the driven elements. When the antenna is operated to switch between the folded and unfolded positions, the joystick and the display module also switch between the corresponding folded and unfolded positions under the drive of the linkage mechanism 230. It should be noted that the driving component includes the part connected to the power input end of the linkage mechanism 230, and the driven component includes the part connected to the power output end of the linkage mechanism 230.

[0101] On the one hand, this remote control is designed such that both the display module and the joystick are foldable structures, which facilitates the flexible operation and use of the remote control and is also conducive to saving storage space. On the other hand, this remote control can achieve the linkage of the display module, the joystick, and the antenna by using the linkage mechanism 230. When one of the components is unfolded, the other two components will also be unfolded; when one of the components is folded, the other two components will also be folded. Whether in the process of unfolding and using the remote control or in the process of folding and storing it, the operation steps are simplified, making the operation of the remote control more convenient and fast.

[0102] Embodiment Two

[0103] In the remote controls in the related art, some can design at least one of the components such as the joystick, the antenna, and the screen as a structure that can move relative to the remote control body. For example, at least one component with different functions among the joystick, the antenna, and the screen can be designed as a foldable structure. When the remote control is not in use, for example, when the remote control is stored in a packing box or a storage box, the corresponding component is in the folded position, which can save storage space and can also avoid protruding from the surface of the remote control body, reducing the risk of damage. When the remote control needs to be used, the corresponding component can be adjusted from its folded position to the unfolded position.

[0104] However, when there are two or more movable components in the remote control, when using the remote control, each component needs to be adjusted from its folded position to the unfolded position one by one. Or, when storing the remote control, each component needs to be adjusted from its unfolded position to the folded position one by one, and the operation is rather cumbersome and time-consuming.

[0105] For example, in some remote controls, the joystick and the antenna can move independently relative to the remote control body and switch between the folded position and the unfolded position respectively. When the remote control is stored, the joystick and the antenna are in their respective corresponding folded positions. When the remote control needs to be used, the joystick and the antenna need to be adjusted to their respective corresponding unfolded positions respectively. Obviously, the user's operation steps at least include the operation actions of unfolding the joystick and unfolding the antenna, which is time-consuming and laborious, and is not conducive to scenarios where the user wants to quickly operate a controlled end, such as a mobile platform, through the remote control, such as quickly starting shooting, such as shooting fleeting scenes like the sunset or the blooming of fireworks, resulting in a poor user experience.

[0106] In order to simplify the operation steps when using the remote control, the embodiment of the present application designs a remote control with the characteristic of linkage movement. When using or storing the remote control, operating one component can drive at least one other component, so that different components can all move to the unfolded position or the folded position, and one operation step can achieve the unfolding or folding of different components, making it possible to start using the remote control or complete the storage more quickly and conveniently.

[0107] As shown in Figures 2 to 7c, this remote control specifically includes a remote control body 10, a first component 20, a second component 30, and a first linkage mechanism 40. The remote control body 10 includes a housing and an electronic control module such as a circuit board and a battery installed inside the housing. The remote control body 10 has a receiving cavity in which the circuit board, battery, and other electronic control modules can be housed. The first component 20 and the second component 30 are parts that have a mechanical connection with the remote control body, and each of the first component 20 and the second component 30 can move relative to the remote control body to a corresponding folded or unfolded position. Each of the two components has a different function.

[0108] The first linkage mechanism 40 is a mechanism that can transmit mechanical motion between the first component 20 and the second component 30. Under the connection of the first linkage mechanism 40, one component located at the power input end of the first linkage mechanism 40 can drive the other component located at the power output end of the first linkage mechanism 40 to move, without needing to provide separate driving power for each component. In this embodiment, the first linkage mechanism 40 is simultaneously connected to both the first component 20 and the second component 30. When one component moves to its corresponding folded position, the first linkage mechanism 40 drives the other component to move to the corresponding folded position as well. When one component moves to its corresponding unfolded position, the first linkage mechanism 40 drives the other component to move to the corresponding unfolded position as well.

[0109] It should be noted that the transmission connection in the embodiments of this application refers to the indirect connection between different components through transmission mechanisms such as linkage mechanisms, gear mechanisms, chain mechanisms or belt mechanisms, or through intermediate connecting parts such as transmission shafts, so as to realize the transmission of motion.

[0110] For example, in some remote controls, the first component 20 and the second component 30 are selected from one or more of a display module, a joystick, and an antenna. For instance, when the first component 20 is a display module, the second component 30 can be at least one of a joystick and an antenna; when the first component 20 is a joystick, the second component 30 can be at least one of a display module and an antenna; when the first component 20 is an antenna, the second component 30 can be at least one of a display module and a joystick. It should be noted that the display module can be a display screen integrated into the remote control and inseparable from the remote control body. The display module can also be a mobile terminal device with a display screen, such as a mobile phone or tablet computer, that is detachably fixed to the remote control body. In addition, the first component 20 and the second component 30 can also be other movable components on the remote control; this application embodiment does not limit their description.

[0111] Therefore, the remote control in this embodiment of the application, by setting a first linkage mechanism 40 in the remote control, and the linkage mechanism 40 being connected to both a first component 20 and a second component 30 with different functions, can at least enable the first component 20 and the second component 30 to unfold or fold together. This simplifies the user's operation steps and allows different components of the remote control to move quickly to the unfolded or folded position that meets the usage requirements, thus improving the operating efficiency of the remote control. For example, when the remote control is needed to operate the controlled device, the first component 20 and the second component 30 can move together from the unfolded position to their respective unfolded positions, allowing the remote control to be ready more quickly, thereby improving the efficiency of operating the controlled device. Similarly, when the remote control is not needed to operate the controlled device, the first component 20 and the second component 30 can move together from the unfolded position to their respective folded positions, allowing the remote control to be stored more quickly, improving the user experience.

[0112] For example, taking the first component 20 as a display module and the second component 30 as a joystick, when the controlled device needs to be operated using a remote control, operating the display module will activate the joystick. One operation step can unfold both components, allowing the display module and joystick to move together from their folded positions to their respective unfolded positions. This enables the remote control to be ready more quickly, thereby improving the efficiency of controlling the controlled device. Similarly, the joystick can be operated to move the display module. Furthermore, for example, when the controlled device does not need to be operated using a remote control, operating the display module will activate the joystick. One operation step can fold both components, allowing the display module and joystick to move together from their unfolded positions to their respective folded positions. This enables the remote control to be stored more quickly, improving the user experience.

[0113] Optionally, in one embodiment, when the first linkage mechanism 40 is simultaneously connected to both the first component 20 and the second component 30, when the first component 20 is in its corresponding folded position, the second component 30 is also in its corresponding folded position; when the first component 20 is in its corresponding unfolded position, the second component 30 is also in its corresponding unfolded position. That is, the folding or unfolding processes of the first component 20 and the second component 30 can maintain a synchronized or substantially synchronized rhythm, avoiding significant lag. This further saves time operating the remote control's mechanical structure and helps improve the remote control's operating efficiency.

[0114] Optionally, in one embodiment, the remote controller of this application may further include a third component 50, which has a different function from both the first component 20 and the second component 30. Similar to the first component 20 and the second component 30, the third component 50 can move relative to the remote controller body 10 to a folded position or an unfolded position. In addition, the remote controller further includes a second linkage mechanism 60, which is driveably connected to the first linkage mechanism 40 and also driveably connected to the third component 30.

[0115] Therefore, when the first linkage mechanism 40 moves, it also drives the second linkage mechanism 60 and the third component 30 to move, thereby enabling the first component 20, the second component 30, and the third component 50 to move to their respective folded or unfolded positions. This achieves coordinated movement of the three components, such as coordinated unfolding or coordinated folding, making it easier and faster to start using the remote control or to complete storage. In other words, operating one component will cause two other components to move accordingly, eliminating the need to operate the other two components.

[0116] Optionally, referring to Figures 2 to 7c, in one embodiment, the remote control of this application further includes a first bracket 21 for mounting and fixing the aforementioned first component 20, and a folding structure 22 connected between the remote control body 10 and the first bracket 21. One end of the folding structure 22 is rotatably connected to the remote control body 10, and the other end of the folding structure 22 is connected to the first bracket 21. The folding structure 22 itself has the characteristic of being foldable or unfoldable; therefore, the first bracket 21 can move relative to the remote control body 10 to a folded position or an unfolded position.

[0117] In addition, the input end of the first linkage mechanism 40 is connected to the folding structure 22, and the output end of the first linkage mechanism 40 is connected to the second component 30 via a transmission connection. When the first bracket 21 is operated to move, the power can be transmitted to the first linkage mechanism 40 and the second component 30 through the folding structure 22, thereby realizing the linkage movement of the first component 20 and the second bracket 30.

[0118] Furthermore, some related technologies allow for the design of detachable and retractable joysticks in remote controls. When the remote control is not in use, such as when it is stored in its packaging or storage box, the joystick can be manually detached and stored elsewhere. This saves storage space and prevents the joystick from protruding from the remote control's surface, reducing the risk of damage. When the remote control is needed, the joystick is manually removed from its storage location and reinstalled. However, this method makes the joystick prone to being lost.

[0119] While related technologies have proposed a structure where the joystick is connected to the remote control and can be folded, allowing for storage and use, this approach presents a problem. When the remote control is being operated normally, the joystick is in its unfolded state. During normal operation, the joystick is prone to accidental folding, such as from excessively large movements that could cause it to mistakenly enter a folded state, becoming stuck in a storage slot and unable to move, thus reducing reliability.

[0120] Therefore, in one embodiment, taking the second component 30 as a joystick as an example, this application embodiment also designs a remote control, wherein the joystick is foldable and can remain connected to the remote control body, and is not easily lost when folded and stored. At the same time, it can solve the problem of accidental folding of the joystick. When the joystick is in the unfolded position, it cannot be triggered or pressed back to the folded position when the joystick is in the unfolded position, thereby avoiding accidental touch during normal joystick operation and improving the reliability of the remote control to control the controlled end.

[0121] As shown in Figure 8a, the remote control also includes a second bracket 31 for mounting and fixing the aforementioned second component 30, and a limiting member 32. The second bracket 31 is provided with a first limiting structure 311, and the second bracket 31 is rotatably connected to the remote control body 10. The limiting member 32 is provided with a second limiting structure 321, and the limiting member 32 can move between a first position and a second position relative to the remote control body 10. Figure 8a shows the limiting member 32 currently in the second position as an example. When the limiting member leaves the second position, for example, after moving to the right, the limiting member 32 can be in the first position.

[0122] When the limiting member 32 moves to the first position, the first limiting structure 311 and the second limiting structure 321 do not obstruct each other. At this time, the second component 30 can freely and unhinderedly enter the folded state from the unfolded state. When the limiting member 32 moves to the second position, the first limiting structure 311 and the second limiting structure 321 cooperate with each other to restrict each other, preventing the second component 30 from switching from the unfolded state to the folded state. At this time, the second component 30 cannot enter the folded state from the unfolded state. When the second component 30 is in the unfolded position, operating the second component 30 to control the controlled terminal will not trigger it to return to the folded position, thus avoiding malfunctions during normal operation of the second component 30 and improving the reliability of the remote control in controlling the controlled terminal.

[0123] Therefore, when the limiting member 32 is in the first position, the second component 30 can be allowed to enter the folded state from the unfolded state. When the limiting member 32 is in the second position, the first limiting structure 311 and the second limiting structure 321 can cooperate with each other to prevent the second component 30 from switching from the unfolded state to the folded state, preventing it from being accidentally triggered to the folded position during normal use and operation, thereby ensuring that the second component 30 can operate normally to control the controlled end, reducing the possibility of the second component 30 (e.g., joystick) malfunctioning during remote control use, and improving the reliability of remote control operation.

[0124] Furthermore, as shown in Figures 8b to 8d, the first limiting structure 311 may include a first stop 3111, and the second limiting structure may include a second stop 3211. When the limiting member 32 moves to the first position, the second stop 3211 is located outside the movement path of the first stop 3111. At this time, the second component 30 can freely and unhinderedly enter the folded state from the unfolded state. When the limiting member 32 moves to the second position and the second component 30 switches from the unfolded state to the folded state, the second stop 3211 is located on the movement path of the first stop 3111. The two restrict each other, blocking the movement of the second support 31, and the second support 31 cannot drive the second component 30 to switch to the folded state.

[0125] Therefore, when the limiting member 32 is in the first position, the second stop 3211 is outside the movement path of the first stop 3111, allowing the second component 30 to freely switch between the folded and unfolded states. When the limiting member 32 is in the second position and the second component 30 switches from the unfolded to the folded state, the second stop 3211 is located on the movement path of the first stop 3111, preventing the first stop 3111 from moving and keeping the second component 30 in the unfolded state. This ensures that the second component 30 can operate normally to control the movable platform. Through the above design of the first stop 3111 and the second stop 3211, the phenomenon of malfunction of the second component 30 during remote control use can be eliminated, improving the reliability of remote control operation.

[0126] Optionally, in one embodiment, referring to Figures 6a to 6c, the remote control further includes a second bracket 31 for mounting and fixing the aforementioned second component 30, and a limiting member 32. The second bracket 31 has a moving part 312, and the second bracket 31 is rotatably connected to the remote control body 10. The limiting member 32 is provided with a guide part 322. When the limiting member 32 moves relative to the remote control body 10 between a first position and a second position, the moving part 312 can move along the guide part 322.

[0127] When the limiting member 32 moves to the first position, the moving part 312 is located at one position of the guide part 322. At this time, the second component 30 can freely and unimpededly enter the folded state from the unfolded state. When the limiting member 32 moves to the second position, the moving part 312 is located at another position of the guide part 322. At this time, the second component 30 cannot enter the folded state from the unfolded state.

[0128] During the movement of the limiting member 32, the guiding part 322 guides the moving part 312, enabling the limiting member 32 to move accurately and smoothly relative to the remote control body 10.

[0129] Optionally, in one embodiment, referring to the schematic diagrams of Figures 4 and 5, the folding structure 22 of this application embodiment includes a first connector 221 and a second connector 222. The first connector 221 and the second connector 222 are not limited to rod-shaped or flat-shaped structures. The first connector 221 is rotatably connected to the remote control body 10, and the second connector 222 is rotatably connected to the first connector 221 and connected to the first bracket 21. Thus, when the user operates the first bracket 21, the connection structure formed by the first connector 221, the second connector 222, and the remote control body 10 can realize the folding or unfolding of the first bracket 21 relative to the remote control body 10, thereby correspondingly realizing the folding or unfolding of the first component 20.

[0130] Meanwhile, the input end of the first linkage mechanism 40 is connected to the first connector 221, and the output end of the first linkage mechanism 40 is connected to the second component 30 via a transmission connection. Therefore, when the user operates the first bracket 21, the force applied to the first bracket 21 is also applied to the second component 30 through the first linkage mechanism 40, thereby folding or unfolding the second component 30.

[0131] Optionally, in one embodiment, referring to the schematic diagrams of Figures 6a to 6c, the first linkage mechanism 40 of this application embodiment includes a connector 401, one end of the connector 401 is fixedly connected to the limiting member 32, and the other end of the connector 401 is fixedly connected to the first connector 221.

[0132] It should be noted that when a rigid connecting rod is used as the connector 401 in this embodiment, it can provide both tensile and pushing forces to achieve linkage between the first component 20 and the second component 30. When a flexible component such as a rope or chain is used as the connector 401 in this embodiment, it can provide tensile force to pull the driven components in the first component 20 and the second component 30 to the corresponding folded or unfolded positions.

[0133] For example, when the first component 20 is mounted and fixed on the first bracket 21, and the first component 20 acts as the driving component, the power is applied sequentially to the first bracket 21, the second connecting component 222, the first connecting component 221, the connecting component 401, the limiting component 32, and the second bracket 31. Since the second component 30 is mounted and fixed on the second bracket 31, the connecting component 401 can transmit the power that drives the first component 20 to the second component 30, thereby realizing the linkage movement of the two different components.

[0134] Optionally, in one embodiment, referring to the schematic diagrams of Figures 7a to 7c, unlike the connecting member 401 in the aforementioned embodiment, another first linkage mechanism 40 includes a transmission pin 402, which is fixedly connected to the first connecting member 221, and the limiting member 32 is provided with a strip-shaped hole 323. Referring to the schematic diagrams of Figures 7a to 7c, the length direction of the strip-shaped hole 323 is direction a as shown in the figure, the movement direction of the limiting member 32 is direction b as shown in the figure, and directions a and b intersect. The transmission pin 402 is embedded in the strip-shaped hole 323.

[0135] When the first connector 221 rotates relative to the remote control body 10, the transmission pin 402 rotates accordingly. At the same time, the transmission pin 402 is constrained by the strip hole 323 and slides within the strip hole 323, generating a force acting on the side wall of the strip hole 323, which can push the limiting member 32 to slide between the first position and the second position.

[0136] For example, when the first component 20 is mounted and fixed on the first bracket 21, and the first component 20 acts as the driving component, the power is applied sequentially to the first bracket 21, the second connecting component 222, the first connecting component 221, the transmission pin 402, the limiting component 32, and the second bracket 31. Since the second component 30 is mounted and fixed on the second bracket 31, the transmission pin 402 can transmit the power that drives the first component 20 to the second component 30, thereby realizing the linkage movement of the two different components.

[0137] Optionally, in one embodiment, when the remote control of this application includes a second bracket 31, a limiting member 32, a third component 50, and a second linkage mechanism 60, the specific structure and connection relationship of the first linkage mechanism 40 and the second linkage mechanism 60 are as follows: The second linkage mechanism 60 is drivenly connected to the first linkage mechanism 40, and the second linkage mechanism 60 is also drivenly connected to the third component 50. Thus, when the first component 20 and the second component 30 achieve linked movement through the connection of the first linkage mechanism 40, the first linkage mechanism 40 also drives the third component 50 to move through the second linkage mechanism 60.

[0138] Specifically, as shown in Figures 9a and 9b, the second linkage mechanism 60 includes a push block 601 and a drive shaft 602. The push block 601 is fixedly connected to the limiting member 32, and the cylindrical surface of the drive shaft 602 is provided with a spiral groove 6021. The drive shaft 602 is fixedly connected to the third component 50, and the push block 601 is embedded in the spiral groove 6021.

[0139] When the first component 20 acts as the driving component, driving the second component 30 to move via the first linkage mechanism 40, the push block 601 of the second linkage mechanism 60 also moves accordingly, sliding between the two ends of the spiral groove 6021. As shown in Figure 9a, when the push block 601 slides to one end of the spiral groove 6021, it can drive the third component 50 to move to the folded position. As shown in Figure 9b, when the push block 601 slides to the other end of the spiral groove 6021, it can drive the third component 50 to move to the unfolded position.

[0140] In this embodiment, the push block 601 and the spiral groove 6021 are used to drive the third component 50. Furthermore, this second linkage mechanism 60 is easier to connect and combine with the third component 50, and its size is small and easy to implement.

[0141] Furthermore, the second linkage mechanism 60 can also be a mechanism consisting of parts including gears and racks, or parts including bevel gears. Figure 10 shows a simplified schematic diagram of a second linkage mechanism 60 including bevel gears, wherein the rack 603 is fixedly connected to the limiting member 32. When the limiting member 32 translates, it drives the rack 603 to translate. The rack 603 meshes with the cylindrical gear 604, driving the cylindrical gear 604 to rotate. The cylindrical gear 604 is also fixedly connected to the first bevel gear 605. The first bevel gear 605 rotates with the cylindrical gear 604. The first bevel gear 605 meshes with the second bevel gear 606, driving the second bevel gear 606 to rotate. The second bevel gear 606 is also fixedly connected to the third component 50, which can drive the movement of the third component 50.

[0142] Optionally, in one embodiment, as illustrated in Figures 11 and 12, the remote controller further includes a positioning component 70, a portion of which is connected to the third component 50, and another portion of which is connected to the remote controller body 10.

[0143] When the third component 50 rotates relative to the remote control body 10 to or past a specific position, the positioning component 70 can automatically move the third component 50 to a preset position and position and hold the third component 50 in the preset position. The preset position includes at least one of the unfolded position or the folded position corresponding to the third component, and the aforementioned specific position is located between the unfolded position and the folded position corresponding to the third component.

[0144] Taking the third component 50 as an antenna as an example, when the user first unfolds the antenna and applies an initial force to it, causing it to pass a specific position, the positioning component 70 automatically drives the antenna to rotate to its final working position. Conversely, the folding and storage process of the antenna is similar and will not be described in detail here. Compared to remote controls in related technologies, switching the antenna from a folded state to an unfolded state requires rotating the antenna around multiple different axes and making multiple adjustments to achieve the optimal signal transmission and reception angle, making the operation complex, time-consuming, and labor-intensive. In this embodiment, the antenna can be unfolded and / or folded in one step, improving the convenience of the remote control.

[0145] As can be seen, in the embodiments of this application, the application of the positioning component 70 enables the third component 50 to be unfolded or folded in one step, which simplifies the operation steps of unfolding or / and folding the third component 50 and improves the ease of operation of the third component 50.

[0146] For example, the positioning component 70 described above may be an elastic positioning component (e.g., a component such as a spring shaft) or an electrically driven positioning component. Regardless of the structural form, the positioning component 70 has two positions, one corresponding to holding the third component 50 in the unfolded position and the other corresponding to holding the third component 50 in the folded position.

[0147] Optionally, in one embodiment, to prevent excessive movement of the third component 50 during folding and storage, and to ensure that it is folded in place, as illustrated in Figure 13, the remote control body is provided with a limiting component 101. The limiting component 101 is located on the path of the third component 50 relative to the remote control body 10. When the third component 50 moves from the unfolded position to the folded position, the limiting component 101 forms a block at the end of the movement path, preventing the third component 50 from continuing to move beyond the folded position. This ensures that the third component 50 stops moving when it reaches the folded position. It is understood that the aforementioned limiting component 101 can also have a bidirectional limiting function, that is, in addition to preventing excessive movement of the third component 50 when moving from the unfolded position to the folded position, it can also prevent excessive movement of the third component 50 when moving from the folded position to the unfolded position.

[0148] Optionally, in one embodiment, referring to FIG13, the aforementioned limiting member 101 may be a limiting protrusion. When the third member 50 moves to the folded position relative to the remote control body 10, one side wall of the limiting protrusion abuts against the third member 50, preventing the third member 50 from continuing to move.

[0149] Furthermore, it is understood that when the limiting component 101 has a bidirectional limiting function, the third component 50 can abut against one side wall of the limiting protrusion when it moves relative to the remote control body 10 to the folded position, and the third component 50 can abut against the other side wall of the limiting protrusion when it moves relative to the remote control body 10 to the unfolded position.

[0150] For example, the limiting protrusion shown in Figure 13 can be a protrusion structure with a cross-section approximately a quarter circle. The two mutually perpendicular sidewalls in this protrusion structure are the first sidewall 101a and the second sidewall 101b, respectively. When the third component 50 is in the folded position, it abuts against the first sidewall 101a, and when the third component 50 is in the unfolded position, it abuts against the second sidewall 101b.

[0151] Optionally, in one embodiment, as illustrated in FIG12, when the third component 50 is an antenna, the third component 50 can rotate relative to the remote control body 10 to a folded position or an unfolded position. A radiator 51 is provided in the third component 50, which is used for transmitting and receiving signals. The extension direction A of the radiator 51 forms a first angle α with the rotation axis L1 of the third component 50. Regardless of whether the third component 50 is in the folded or unfolded position, the first angle α remains fixed. That is, when unfolding the antenna, the user only needs to rotate the antenna from the folded position to the unfolded position, without needing to further adjust the first angle α between the extension direction A of the radiator 51 and the rotation axis L1 of the third component 50, to achieve the optimal signal orientation of the antenna. Therefore, this antenna structure simplifies the user's adjustment of the antenna orientation during the unfolding process, improving the ease of use of the remote control.

[0152] Optionally, in one embodiment, when the third component 50 is an antenna, as shown in FIG12, the third component 50 includes a main body 501 and a connecting part 502. The main body 501 and the connecting part 502 can be an integral structure formed by injection molding, and the two are fixed together by injection molding. By injection molding, a space for accommodating the radiator 51 can be provided in advance inside the main body 501, and a mounting hole 5021 can be pre-machined on the connecting part 502, thereby fixing the shape and structure of the third component 50. The axis of the mounting hole 5021 is also the rotation axis of the third component 50 relative to the remote control body 10, and the aforementioned first included angle α is the included angle formed between the length direction of the main body 501 and the axis of the mounting hole 5021.

[0153] Optionally, in one embodiment, as illustrated in FIG12, the number of third components 50 is two. When the two third components 50 are in the folded position, the two main body parts 501 are stacked together in parallel. At this time, the two third components 50 are stacked together, which can save storage space and volume, and improve the storage and portability of the remote control.

[0154] Optionally, in one embodiment, a joystick is distributed on each of the left and right sides of the remote control body 10, as shown in FIG12. The remote control body 10 has a split surface M along the left-right direction, and the split surface M is perpendicular to the line connecting the left and right joysticks. The aforementioned third component 50 forms a second included angle β with the rotation axis of the remote control body 10 relative to the split surface M. The difference between the aforementioned first included angle α and the second included angle β is 90°. Therefore, when the third component 50 is connected and installed with the remote control body 10 according to this orientation relationship, it can be ensured that when the two third components 50 are in the folded position, the two main body parts 501 are stacked together in parallel.

[0155] Optionally, in one embodiment, the surface from which the joystick extends in the remote control is the operating surface of the remote control body 10, and the operating surface of the remote control body 10 faces the user when the user operates the remote control. As illustrated in Figures 3 and 4, in the remote control of this embodiment, when the third component 50 is in the unfolded position, the third component 50 extends in a direction away from the operating surface of the remote control body 10. That is, after the user unfolds the third component 50, it extends towards the back of the remote control body 10, rather than towards the user. This unfolded position of the third component 50 avoids interfering with the user's operation on the operating surface of the remote control body 10.

[0156] Optionally, in one embodiment, as shown in Figures 2 to 4, when the first component 20 and the third component 50 are each in their respective unfolded positions, the first component 20 is positioned above the operating surface of the remote control body 10, and the third component 50 is positioned below the operating surface of the remote control body 10, that is, the third component 50 is located behind the first component 20, which can prevent the first component 20 from interfering with the third component 50. For example, it can prevent the display module 20 from causing electromagnetic shielding to the antenna 50.

[0157] For example, if the first component 20 is a display module and the third component 50 is an antenna, and the antenna's unfolded position corresponds to its extension towards the front of the remote control body 10, then the antenna is relatively close to the display module. The metal casing or other components of the display module may interfere with the antenna's transmission and reception performance. In the solution illustrated, the antenna's unfolded position corresponds to its extension away from the operating surface of the remote control body 10. This reduces the interference of the display module on the antenna, and from a mechanical perspective, the folding and unfolding movements of both components are less likely to cause interference or collision.

[0158] Optionally, in one embodiment, as shown in Figures 14a to 14c, the second component 30 is exemplified as a joystick. When the remote control of this embodiment includes a second bracket 31 and a limiting member 32, the guide portion 322 of the limiting member 32 has a dead point position. When the limiting member 32 is in the aforementioned second position, the moving part 312 is also in the dead point position in the guide portion 322. At this time, when the user operates the second component 30, it causes the second bracket 31 to move relative to the remote control body 10. The force is transmitted from the second bracket 31 to the limiting member 32. Due to the existence of this dead point position, the second component 30 cannot switch from the unfolded position to the folded position, thus preventing the second component 30 from being accidentally folded and stored.

[0159] In this context, the dead point position refers to a position where the object will not move under normal external force and requires a driving force or a destructive external force to break through the limitation of the dead point position and thus generate movement.

[0160] It should be noted that when the moving part 312 is in the dead position in the guide part 322, if the force is transmitted to the second support 31 through the limiting member 32, the second support 31 and the second component 30 are not constrained by the dead position, and the second component 30 can normally and unhinderedly switch from the unfolded position to the folded position to complete the normal folding and storage operation.

[0161] Therefore, in this embodiment, when the limiting member 32 is in the first position, the second component 30 can be allowed to enter the folded state from the unfolded state. Since the limiting member 32 is provided with a guide portion 322, which has a dead point position, when the limiting member 32 is in the second position, the moving part 312 is at this dead point position to prevent the second component 30 from switching from the unfolded state to the folded state. This prevents the second component 30 from being accidentally triggered to the folded position during normal use, thereby ensuring that the second component 30 can operate normally to control the movable platform. This eliminates the phenomenon of the second component 30 malfunctioning during remote control use and improves the reliability of remote control operation.

[0162] In this embodiment, the second component 30 is foldable and can remain connected to the remote control body, making it less likely to be lost when folded for storage. Simultaneously, it solves the problem of accidental folding of the second component 30. When the second component 30 is in the unfolded position, operating it will not trigger it or press it back to the folded position, thus avoiding accidental activation during normal operation and improving the reliability of the remote control's control of the controlled device. Optionally, the second component 30 may include a joystick.

[0163] Optionally, in one embodiment, when the limiting member 32 is in the first position, folding is permitted; when the limiting member 32 is in the second position, folding of the second component 30 is prevented. The first and second positions of the limiting member 32 may not correspond to the folded and unfolded states of the second component 30. Specifically, when the limiting member 32 is in the first position, the second component 30 may be in an unfolded state or a folded state. Similarly, when the limiting member 32 is in the second position, the second component 30 may be in an unfolded state or a folded state.

[0164] Optionally, in one embodiment, when the limiting member 32 is in the first position, the second component 30 is in a folded state; when the limiting member 32 is in the second position, the second component 30 is in an unfolded state.

[0165] Optionally, the limiting member 32 may also have a transmission function. For example, the limiting member 32 may also drive the rocker arm 30 to switch between the folded state and the unfolded state via the bracket 31.

[0166] Optionally, in one embodiment, the movement of the limiting member 32 relative to the remote control body 10 can be sliding or rotating. When the limiting member 32 slides relative to the remote control body 10, the two ends of the sliding stroke can correspond to the first position and the second position of the limiting member 32, respectively. When the limiting member 32 rotates relative to the remote control body 10, the starting position and the ending position of the rotation stroke can correspond to the first position and the second position of the limiting member 32, respectively.

[0167] Figures 14a to 14c illustrate an example of the sliding of the limiting member 32 relative to the remote control body 10 in this application. In the figures, the limiting member 32 is able to translate relative to the remote control body 10 in the direction of the arrow shown.

[0168] Optionally, in one embodiment, as shown in Figures 14a to 14c, the aforementioned moving part 312 includes a slider, and the guide part 322 includes a groove. The slider may be a protruding structure protruding from the surface of the second bracket 31, integrally injection molded with it. The groove may be a groove-shaped structure formed in the blank area reserved during the injection molding of the limiting part 32.

[0169] Optionally, in one embodiment, as shown in Figures 14a to 14c, the guide portion 322 can be divided into two parts: a first guide portion 3221 and a second guide portion 3222. The first guide portion 3221 and the second guide portion 3222 are connected to each other and extend and intersect in different directions. The moving portion 312 can slide from the first guide portion 3221 to the second guide portion 3222, or from the second guide portion 3222 to the first guide portion 3221. The aforementioned dead point position is the transition position where the first guide portion 3221 and the second guide portion 3222 meet.

[0170] Referring to the schematic diagrams in Figures 14a to 14c, when the guide portion 322 includes a slide groove, the first guide portion 3221 and the second guide portion 3222 are different parts of the slide groove. When the second component 30 is operated to drive the second bracket 31 to rotate relative to the remote control body 10, the moving part 312 on the second bracket 31 slides along the guide portion 322. Once the moving part 312 slides to the dead point position, if the second component 30 is operated in the same direction, the movement of the second component 30 and the second bracket 31 is hindered, thereby preventing the second component 30 from being accidentally retracted.

[0171] Optionally, in one embodiment, as shown in Figures 14a to 14c, the extension direction of the second guide portion 3222 is substantially parallel to the operating surface of the remote control body 10, and the extension direction of the second guide portion 3222 intersects the extension direction of the first guide portion 3221 to form an obtuse angle. The position where the second guide portion 3222 and the first guide portion 3221 intersect is the dead point position.

[0172] Referring to the diagrams in Figures 14a to 14c, when the second component 30 is in the unfolded position, the moving part 312 is located at the end of the second guide 3222 away from the first guide 3221. When the second component 30 is moved closer to the folded position, the moving part 312 also gradually slides towards the first guide 3221. Once the moving part 312 reaches its dead point, further operation of the second component 30 will not allow it to move towards the folded position. However, by operating the limiting member 32, the moving part 312 can still continue to slide to the end of the second guide 3222, thus enabling the folding and storage function of the second component 30.

[0173] Therefore, the remote control in this embodiment can avoid accidental touches during normal operation of the second component 30, forming a "foolproof design" without affecting the folding and storage function of the second component 30.

[0174] Optionally, in one embodiment, as shown in Figures 14a to 14c, a shape configuration of the moving part 312 is illustrated. Along a direction parallel to the axis of rotation of the second support 31 (i.e., perpendicular to the plane of the paper), the moving part 312 has at least one abutting surface 312a. Since the moving part 312 is a protruding portion of the second support 31, when the second support 31 rotates, the moving part 312 also rotates, thus allowing the abutting surface 312a to abut against different portions of the guide part 322.

[0175] As shown in Figure 14c, when the limiting member 32 is in the first position, the abutting plane 312a abuts against the side wall of the first guide portion 3221. As shown in Figure 14a, when the limiting member 32 is in the second position, the abutting plane 312a abuts against the side wall of the second guide portion 3222.

[0176] Optionally, in one embodiment, when the second component 30 moves the moving part 312 of the second bracket 31 to the dead position, to prevent damage to components caused by continued force from the user, as shown in Figures 7a to 7c, the extension direction of the second guide part 3222 is parallel to the operating surface of the remote control body 10, and the first guide part 3221 has an active space larger than the volume of the moving part 312. When the moving part 312 moves within the first guide part 3221, the area traversed by the moving part 312 is smaller than the active space. Thus, the first guide part 3221 can provide a larger movement space for the moving part 312, preventing damage from compression between the second bracket 31 and the limiting member 32.

[0177] Optionally, in one embodiment, the remote controller of this application embodiment, based on the aforementioned mechanical structure linkage, can further incorporate a detection element to achieve linkage control between mechanical and electrical components. Specifically, as shown in FIG15, the remote controller also includes a processor 33 and a detection element B 34. The processor 33 is the control center of the remote controller, capable of analyzing and processing signals from the detection element B 34 and outputting corresponding control signals. The detection element B 34 can be used to detect information related to the pose of at least one of the first component 20, the second component 30, and the third component 50 satisfying preset conditions. After the information detected by the detection element B 34 is transmitted to the processor, the processor 33 responds to the corresponding information and can trigger the remote controller 33 to execute the corresponding mode based on the specific content of the information. Thus, this application embodiment can link the mechanical movement of at least one of the first component 20, the second component 30, and the third component 50 in the remote controller with the circuit operation control process of the remote controller, achieving simpler operation of the remote controller.

[0178] Optionally, in one embodiment, based on the foregoing description, the remote control of this application embodiment can establish a connection between the mechanical movement of at least one of the first component 20, the second component 30, and the third component 50 and at least one of the remote control's power-on mode and power-off mode. For example, the unfolding of at least one of the first component 20, the second component 30, and the third component 50 can trigger the remote control to execute the power-on mode, enabling the remote control to quickly power on and enter a ready state, thereby improving the efficiency of using the remote control to control the mobile platform for rapid operation.

[0179] For example, when the detection component B 34 detects that the pose of at least one of the first component 20, the second component 30, and the third component 50 meets the relevant information of the first preset condition, the processor 33 can trigger the remote control to execute the power-on mode in response to the information. The first preset condition may include the pose information of at least one of the first component 20, the second component 30, and the third component 50 moving from the folded position to the unfolded position, and specifically may include the unfolded position corresponding to each component.

[0180] When the detection component B 34 detects that the pose of at least one of the first component 20, the second component 30, and the third component 50 meets the relevant information of the second preset condition, the processor 33, in response to the information, can trigger the remote control to execute the power-off mode. The second preset condition may include the pose information of at least one of the first component 20, the second component 30, and the third component 50 moving from the unfolded position to the folded position, specifically including the folded position corresponding to each component.

[0181] Therefore, in this embodiment, the unfolding or folding operation of at least one of the first component 20, the second component 30, and the third component 50 can be detected respectively, thereby triggering the remote control to turn on or off, thus realizing the linkage control of mechanical and electrical systems without requiring the user to manually turn the device on or off.

[0182] Optionally, in one embodiment, in order to prevent the limiting member 32 from moving accidentally between the first position and the second position, as shown in Figures 14a to 14c, the remote control further includes a locking structure 80, which keeps the limiting member 32 in the first position or the second position, so that the second component 30 is stably in the unfolded position or the folded position.

[0183] Optionally, in one embodiment, as illustrated in Figures 14a to 14c, the locking structure 80 is a spring with an elastic protrusion 801, and the limiting member 32 has a positioning protrusion 324. When the limiting member 32 is in the first position, the positioning protrusion 324 is located on one side of the elastic protrusion 801. When the limiting member 32 is pushed to the second position, the positioning protrusion 324 compresses the elastic protrusion 801, causing the elastic protrusion 801 to contract and deform. Thus, the positioning protrusion 324 moves past the elastic protrusion 801 to the other side of the elastic protrusion 801, at which point the limiting member 32 is in the second position. Therefore, the elastic protrusion 801 forms a retaining and locking effect on the limiting member 32, helping it to be stably maintained in the first or second position.

[0184] Optionally, in one embodiment, as illustrated in FIG16, the locking structure 80 can also be a latching part 802 provided on the remote control body 10. When the first connecting member 221 drives the limiting member 32 to move relative to the remote control body 10 to the second position through the first linkage mechanism 40, the first component 20 is in the folded position. At this time, the first connecting member 221 cooperates with the latching part to keep the first component 20 in the folded position, and the first linkage mechanism 40 cannot move, thus also keeping the second component 30 in the folded position. In this embodiment, the latching part can be a groove or other structural shape on the remote control body 10 that can clamp and fix the first connecting member 221.

[0185] Optionally, in one embodiment, as illustrated in Figures 6a to 6c or Figures 8b to 8d, a reset member 90 can be provided between the limiting member 32 and the remote control body 10. The reset member 90 can provide a reset force to the limiting member 32, so that the limiting member 32 automatically returns to the second position without manual operation, thereby improving the intelligence and efficiency of the reset of the limiting member 32.

[0186] Optionally, in one embodiment, as illustrated in Figures 8b to 8d, the reset member 90 is a compression spring, and the limiting member 32 is provided with a spring mounting portion 325. One end of the compression spring abuts against the spring mounting portion 325, and the other end abuts against the inner wall of the remote control body 10. When the limiting member 32 is in the first position, the compression spring is compressed and stores energy. When the locking structure 80 releases its holding effect on the limiting member 32, the compression spring pushes the limiting member 32 toward the second position under the elastic force of the compression spring.

[0187] Optionally, in one embodiment, as shown in Figures 7a to 7c, the limiting member 32 is slidably connected to the remote control body 10, and the limiting member 32 can slide between a first position and a second position relative to the remote control body 10. In this remote control, the limiting member 32 can extend from the outer surface of the remote control body 10 to form a part for the user to operate, or a toggle switch can be installed on the outer surface of the remote control body 10, and the toggle switch can be snapped and fixed together with the limiting member 32. The user can drive the second bracket 31 and the second component 30 by directly or indirectly operating the limiting member 32 to slide, so that the second component 30 is in a folded position or an unfolded position.

[0188] Optionally, in one embodiment, as shown in Figures 14a to 14c, the remote control body 10 is provided with a guide groove 102, and the limiting member 32 is disposed in the guide groove 102 and can slide along the guide groove 102. Under the guidance of the guide groove 102, the limiting member 32 can move in a straight line as designed, and it is not easy to deviate, so that the limiting function of the limiting member 32 can be more accurate.

[0189] Alternatively, in one embodiment, to facilitate manufacturing and installation, as shown in Figures 14a to 14c, the guide groove 102 can be machined and designed on a guide bracket 91 that is separable from the remote control body 10, and the guide bracket 91 can be fixedly connected to the remote control body 10. This reduces the machining difficulty of the guide groove 102 and also reduces the assembly difficulty of the guide groove 102 and the limiting member 32.

[0190] Optionally, as illustrated in Figures 17a and 17b, there are at least two second brackets 31 and one limiting member 32. Each second bracket 31 is used to fix one second component 30. The limiting member 32 simultaneously drives at least two second brackets 31 to rotate relative to the remote control body 10, switching each second component 30 between a folded position and an unfolded position. Thus, the user can fold or unfold two second components 30 simultaneously by directly or indirectly operating the limiting member 32. For example, when the second components 30 are the left and right joysticks on the remote control, the user only needs to operate the controls on the remote control, such as pressing or pushing the switch on the remote control surface, to cause the limiting member 32 to slide between the first and second positions, thereby causing the left and right joysticks to fold or unfold together. Compared to the joystick folding or unfolding in related technologies, which requires separate operation of the left and right joysticks and is time-consuming and laborious, the solution provided in this application embodiment can fold or unfold the left and right joysticks together with a single click. For example, the unfolding of the two joysticks can be faster, allowing the remote control to be ready more quickly, thus improving the efficiency of operating the movable platform. Similarly, the folding of the two joysticks can be faster, allowing the remote control to be stored away more quickly when not in use, enhancing the user experience.

[0191] Alternatively, in one embodiment, as shown in Figures 17a and 17b, the limiting member 32 is located between the two second supports 31, which can drive the two second supports 31 located on both sides in a balanced manner.

[0192] Optionally, in one embodiment, as shown in Figures 17a and 17b, the limiting member 32 located between the two second supports 31 includes a connecting portion 325, and a first transmission portion 326 and a second transmission portion 327 connected to both ends of the connecting portion 325. The first transmission portion 326 is drive-connected to one of the second supports 31, and the second transmission portion 327 is drive-connected to the other of the second supports 31. Thus, when the user operates the controls on the remote control, such as pressing or pushing the switch on the surface of the remote control, causing the limiting member 32 to slide between the first position and the second position, the connecting portion 325 transmits power to the two second supports 31 through the first transmission portion 326 and the second transmission portion 327 respectively, thereby enabling one-button operation of the two second components 30.

[0193] Optionally, in order to ensure that the second component 30 can reliably remain in the folded position without being accidentally popped out when it is in the folded position and not unfolded by the user, as shown in Figures 8a to 8c, a retainer 92 is provided on the remote control body. The retainer 92 interacts with the second component 30 to keep the second component 30 in the folded position. The second component 30 can only be separated from the retainer 92 if the force applied by the user to the second component 30 is greater than the interaction force between the two.

[0194] Optionally, when the retainer 92 is a soft rubber block with a slot, the second component 30 can be embedded in the slot when it is in the folded position. Under the elastic action of the soft rubber block, the sidewall of the slot can lock and fix the second component 30. Alternatively, the retainer 92 can also be a magnetic component. The second component 30 itself can be made of a magnetically conductive material or partially equipped with magnetic components of opposite polarity to the retainer 92. Thus, when the second component 30 is in the folded position, the magnetic components can fix the second component 30 through magnetic attraction. This application does not specifically limit the method by which the retainer 92 achieves its retaining function.

[0195] Optionally, as described in the foregoing embodiments, in one implementation, the first component 20, the second component 30, and the third component 30 can be selected from one of a display module, a joystick, and an antenna, and the three components are different from each other, thus enabling the coordinated movement of at least two of the three components. More specifically, for example, the first component 20 can be a display module, the second component 30 can be a joystick, and the third component 30 can be an antenna.

[0196] Optionally, in one embodiment, for the first component 20 and the second component 30 connected by the first linkage mechanism 40, when one is the driving component, the other is the driven component. It should be noted that the driving component includes a component connected to the power input end of the first linkage mechanism 40, and the driven component includes a component connected to the power output end of the first linkage mechanism 40. When the driving component moves, it drives the driven component to move to their respective folded or unfolded positions via the first linkage mechanism 40. Therefore, in use, only the driving component needs to be operated, and the driven component will automatically move in tandem, eliminating the need for separate operation of the driving and driven components, thereby reducing operation steps and improving operational efficiency. The specific selection of the driving and driven components can be adaptively chosen based on the structural design of the remote control.

[0197] Optionally, in one embodiment, the first component 20 can be an active component, which drives the second component 30, which is a driven component, to move through the first linkage mechanism 40.

[0198] Optionally, when the unfolding and / or folding of the first component 20 and the second component 30 interfere with each other, for example, when the folded position of the second component is below the folded position of the first component, it is easier to operate, such as pushing the folding first component 20, than to operate the folding second component 30. Thus, the first component 20 can be used as the active component, and the second component 30 as the passive component; only the operation of the first component 20 is needed to achieve the linkage between the first component 20 and the second component 30. For example, when the user operates the display module, the rocker arm is also folded or unfolded via the first linkage mechanism 40.

[0199] Optionally, if the unfolding and folding of the first component 20 and the second component 30 do not interfere with each other, for example, if the folding and unfolding positions of the second component 30 are both located to the side of the first component 20, allowing for convenient operation of the folded second component 30 without interference from the first component 20, then the second component can be used as the driving component and the first component as the driven component. For example, when the joystick is operated, the display module is also folded or unfolded via the first linkage mechanism 40.

[0200] Optionally, in one embodiment, for a remote control having a first component 20, a second component 30, and a third component 50, if any one of them is the active component, the remaining two are the passive components. When the active component moves, it drives one of the passive components to move to the corresponding folded or unfolded position via the first linkage mechanism 40. Simultaneously, it also drives the other passive component to move to the corresponding folded or unfolded position via the second linkage mechanism 60. Similarly, when making specific selections for the active and passive components, an adaptive selection can be made based on the structural design of the remote control, or a similar strategy described above can be referred to.

[0201] Optionally, in one embodiment, when the first component 20, the second component 30, and the third component 50 are respectively acting as active components, the remote controller of this application embodiment has at least the following three linkage schemes:

[0202] a) The first component 20 is the active component. When the first component 20 drives the second component 30 to move through the first linkage mechanism 40, it also drives the third component 30 to move through the second linkage mechanism 60.

[0203] For example, the display module acts as the active component, driving the movement of the rocker arm and antenna.

[0204] b) The second component 30 is the driving component. When the second component 30 drives the first component 20 to move through the first linkage mechanism 40, it also drives the third component 30 to move through the second linkage mechanism 60.

[0205] For example, the joystick acts as the active component, driving the display module and antenna to move.

[0206] c) The third component 50 is the active component. When the third component 50 drives the second component 30 to move through the second linkage mechanism 60, it also drives the first component 20 to move through the first linkage mechanism 40.

[0207] For example, the antenna acts as the active component, driving the movement of the display module and the joystick.

[0208] The following is a specific application example to illustrate a foldable joystick remote control provided in this application:

[0209] This foldable joystick remote control can have several different structural forms, namely the first structure shown in Figures 8b to 8d, the second structure shown in Figures 14a to 14c, the third structure shown in Figures 7a to 7c, and the fourth structure shown in Figures 6a to 6c. Among them, the third and fourth structures have the feature of being able to link with other components (such as display module 20).

[0210] I. The composition and function of each component of the first structure are described below:

[0211] The joystick 30 includes, but is not limited to, potentiometer joysticks, Hall effect joysticks, 3D Hall effect joysticks, and other joystick solutions. This embodiment uses a Hall effect joystick as an example. The joystick 30 converts the joystick's angle information into an electrical signal.

[0212] The second bracket 31, as a load-bearing component of the joystick, can fix the joystick while ensuring that the joystick can move freely within a certain range. When the design of the joystick 30 is changed, the shape of the second bracket 31 will change accordingly.

[0213] The limiting member 32, as a movement limiting component of the joystick 30, restricts the free range of movement of the joystick 30. When the design of the joystick 30 changes, the shape of the limiting member 32 will change accordingly. In the retracted state, the limiting member 32 restricts the range of movement of the joystick 30 to prevent the joystick 30 from being placed in the extended state; in the extended state, the limiting member 32 restricts the range of movement of the joystick 30 to prevent the joystick from being placed in the retracted state.

[0214] The reset component 90, as the driving component of the limiting component 32, keeps the limiting component 32 always in a predetermined limit position.

[0215] The retainer 92, as a limiting component of the joystick 30, will wrap around the joystick 30 when the joystick 30 is placed in the retracted state by external force, and prevent the joystick 30 from springing back to the unfolded state when no external force is applied.

[0216] The remote control body 10 serves as a support component for the bracket 31, the limiting component 32, and the reset component 90, and it also serves to fix these components in place.

[0217] The aforementioned fixing methods include, but are not limited to, bolt fixing, rivet fixing, and adhesive fixing.

[0218] The working method and principle of the remote control in this embodiment are as follows: The remote control compresses the reset member 90 to a compressed state by pushing the limiting member 32 with external force, and then pushes the joystick 30 to the unfolded / retracted state with external force. At this time, the limiting member 32 is released to limit the joystick 30. When the joystick 30 is in the retracted state, the retaining member 92 will wrap around the joystick 30 to fix it in the current position.

[0219] In addition, the remote control body 10 can be equipped with a position sensor for the limiting member 32, such as the detection member B 34 in the above embodiment. When the limiting member 32 is detected to be in the extreme position of folding / unfolding, a corresponding command can be issued to the remote control, which can be a power-off command / power-on command.

[0220] II. The composition and function of each component of the second structure are described below:

[0221] The joystick 30 includes, but is not limited to, potentiometer joysticks, Hall effect joysticks, 3D Hall effect joysticks, and other joystick solutions. This embodiment uses a Hall effect joystick as an example. The joystick 30 converts the joystick's angle information into an electrical signal.

[0222] The second bracket 31, serving as a support component for the joystick, can fix the joystick while ensuring its free movement within a certain range. When the design of the joystick 30 changes, the shape of the second bracket 31 will change accordingly. When the position of the second bracket 31 changes, the fixed position and the range of motion of the joystick 30 will also change.

[0223] The limiting member 32, as a driving component of the second bracket 31, can fix the rocker arm 30 or push the second bracket 31 to move within a certain range. When the shape of the second bracket 31 changes, the limiting member 32 will change accordingly. The limiting member 32 controls the second bracket 31, and the position of the second bracket 31 has a predetermined geometric relationship with the position of the limiting member 32.

[0224] The guide bracket 91, serving as a support component for the limiting member 32 and the locking structure 80, allows the limiting member 32 and the locking structure 80 to be mounted, while ensuring that the limiting member 32 can move freely within a certain range. The shape of the guide bracket 91 is adjusted according to the shape of the limiting member 32 and the locking structure 80.

[0225] The locking structure 80 can be a spring structure or a driving component of the limiting member 32. When there is no external force, the locking structure 80 will push the limiting member 32 to two extreme positions on the structure, and at the extreme positions, it will lock the limiting member 32 so that the limiting member 32 is placed in a certain position.

[0226] The remote control body 10 serves as a supporting component for the second bracket 31, the limiting member 32, the guide bracket 91, and the locking structure 80, and plays a role in fixing the aforementioned components.

[0227] The aforementioned fixing methods include, but are not limited to, bolt fixing, rivet fixing, and adhesive fixing.

[0228] The working principle and operation of the remote control in this embodiment are as follows: The remote control uses external force to push the limiting member 32. After the limiting member 32 moves a certain distance, it automatically slides into one of its extreme positions under the action of external force or the locking structure 80. At this time, the limiting member 32 will drive the second bracket 31 to rotate, causing the second bracket 31 to rotate a certain angle to reach the retracted / expanded state. In the retracted state, the joystick 30 is retracted and cannot be used normally. In the unfolded state, the limiting member 32 is pressed into the unfolded extreme position by the locking structure 80. At this extreme position, the limiting member 32 will place the second bracket 31 in a dead position. When a non-destructive external force is applied to the joystick 30, it will not drive the second bracket 31, and the joystick 30 will not be pushed into the retracted position.

[0229] In addition, the remote control body 10 can be equipped with a position sensor for the limiting member 32, such as the detection member B 34 in the above embodiment. When the limiting member 32 is detected to be in the extreme position of folding / unfolding, a corresponding command can be issued to the remote control, which can be a power-off command / power-on command.

[0230] III. The composition and function of each component of the third structure are described below:

[0231] The joystick 30 includes, but is not limited to, potentiometer joysticks, Hall effect joysticks, 3D Hall effect joysticks, and other joystick solutions. This embodiment uses a Hall effect joystick as an example. The joystick 30 converts the joystick's angle information into an electrical signal.

[0232] The second bracket 31, serving as a support component for the joystick, can fix the joystick while ensuring its free movement within a certain range. When the design of the joystick 30 changes, the shape of the second bracket 31 will change accordingly. When the position of the second bracket 31 changes, the fixed position and the range of motion of the joystick 30 will also change.

[0233] The limiting member 32, as a driving component of the second bracket 31, can fix the rocker arm 30 or push the bracket 31 to move within a certain range. When the shape of the second bracket 31 changes, the limiting member 32 will change accordingly. The limiting member 32 controls the second bracket 31, and the position of the second bracket 31 has a predetermined geometric relationship with the position of the limiting member 32.

[0234] The first bracket 21 serves as a support component for the screen of the remote control. The first bracket 21 can fix the screen or act as a support for the screen. The screen can be a screen that comes with the remote control or an externally installed screen.

[0235] The transmission pin 402 serves as a connector between the first bracket 21 and the linkage component.

[0236] The remote control body 10 serves as a support component for the second bracket 31, the limiting member 32, the first bracket 21, and the transmission pin 402, and plays a role in fixing the aforementioned components.

[0237] The aforementioned fixing methods include, but are not limited to, bolt fixing, rivet fixing, and adhesive fixing.

[0238] The working principle and operation of the remote control in this embodiment are as follows: When there is no external force, the first support 21 is in a flat position due to its own weight, and the joystick 30 is in a retracted state. When the first support 21 is lifted by an external force, the external support 21 pulls the limiting member 32 through the transmission pin 402, causing the joystick 30 to rise to the unfolded state. At this time, the remote control body 10 will lock the first support 21. In the retracted state, the joystick 30 is retracted and cannot be used normally. In the unfolded state, the limiting member 32 is pulled to the unfolded limit position by the transmission pin 402. At this limit position, the limiting member 32 will place the second support 31 in a dead position. When a non-destructive external force is applied to the joystick 31, it will not move the second support 31, and the joystick 30 will not be pushed into the retracted position.

[0239] In addition, the remote control body 10 can be equipped with a position sensor for the limiting member 32, such as the detection member B 34 in the above embodiment. When the limiting member 32 is detected to be in the limit position of being retracted / expanded, a corresponding command can be issued to the remote control, which can be a power-off command / power-on command.

[0240] IV. The composition and function of each component of the fourth structure are explained below:

[0241] The joystick 30 includes, but is not limited to, potentiometer joysticks, Hall effect joysticks, 3D Hall effect joysticks, and other joystick solutions. This embodiment uses a Hall effect joystick as an example. The joystick 30 converts the joystick's angle information into an electrical signal.

[0242] The second bracket 31, serving as a support component for the joystick 30, can fix the joystick while ensuring its free movement within a certain range. When the design of the joystick 30 changes, the shape of the second bracket 31 will change accordingly. When the position of the bracket 31 changes, the fixed position and the range of motion of the joystick 30 will also change.

[0243] The limiting member 32, as a driving component of the second bracket 31, can fix the rocker arm 30 or push the second bracket 31 to move within a certain range. When the shape of the second bracket 31 changes, the limiting member 32 will change accordingly. The limiting member 32 controls the second bracket 31, and the position of the second bracket 31 has a predetermined geometric relationship with the position of the limiting member 32.

[0244] The tension spring 403 can be used as a driving component for the limiting member 32. When there is no external force, the tension spring 403 cooperates with the connecting member 401 to drive the limiting member 32 to move to two extreme positions. At the extreme positions, the limiting member 32 will be locked to place the limiting member 32 in a certain position.

[0245] The first bracket 21 serves as a support component for the screen of the remote control. The first bracket 21 can fix the screen or act as a support for the screen. The screen can be a screen that comes with the remote control or an externally installed screen.

[0246] The connector 401 (such as a traction line) serves as a linkage component between the first bracket 21 and the limiting member 32. One end of the connector 401 is fixed to the first bracket 21, and the other end is fixed to the limiting member 32. When the first bracket 21 rotates, it will drive the limiting member 32 to move.

[0247] The pivot can be used with a flexible connector 401, such as a traction line. The connector 401 can be bypassed by the pivot to change the direction of the tension of the connector 401.

[0248] The remote control body 10 serves as a support component for the second bracket 31, the limiting member 32, the first bracket 21, and the connecting member 401, and plays a role in fixing the aforementioned components.

[0249] The aforementioned fixing methods include, but are not limited to, bolt fixing, rivet fixing, and adhesive fixing.

[0250] The working principle and operation of the remote control in this embodiment are as follows: When there is no external force, the first support 21 is in a flat position due to its own weight. At this time, the tension spring 403 pulls the limiting member 32, and the connecting member 401 pulls the first support 21, causing the joystick 30 to be in a retracted state. When the first support 21 is lifted by an external force, the first support 21 pulls the limiting member 32 through the connecting member 401, simultaneously pulling the tension spring 403, causing the joystick 30 to be lifted to the unfolded state. At this time, the remote control body 10 will lock the first support 21, and the tension of the tension spring 403 cannot pull the first support 21 back. In the retracted state, the joystick 30 is retracted and cannot be used normally. In the unfolded state, the limiting member 32 is pulled to the unfolded limit position by the connecting member 401. At this limit position, the limiting member 32 will place the second support 31 in a dead position. When a non-destructive external force is applied to the joystick 30, it will not move the second support 31, and will not push the joystick 30 into the retracted position.

[0251] In addition, the remote control body 10 can be equipped with a position sensor for the limiting member 32, such as the detection member B 34 in the above embodiment. When the limiting member 32 is detected to be in the limit position of being retracted / expanded, a corresponding command can be issued to the remote control, which can be a power-off command / power-on command.

[0252] Finally, it should be noted that for the four different structural forms of remote controls mentioned above, the following alternative design schemes also exist:

[0253] The limiting element 32 is not limited to a sliding switch; it can also be a push switch, a toggle switch, a toggle switch, etc. The number of limiting elements 32 is not limited to one; one limiting element 32 can control multiple second supports 31, or multiple limiting elements 32 can control one second support 31. In the first structure, the retaining element 92 is not limited to a soft rubber block; it can also be other objects capable of clamping the rocker arm 30, such as clips, hooks, tape, etc. In the second structure, the locking structure 80 is not limited to a spring sheet; it can also be a compression spring, a tension spring, a torsion spring, etc. In the third structure, the first support 21 is not limited to fixing a screen; it can also be fixing a mobile phone or other display device. When the first support 21 is not fixing a screen, it can be considered a rotary switch; when it functions as a switch, the switch can be a push switch, a toggle switch, a toggle switch, etc. The linkage between the first support 21 and the limiting element 32 is not limited to the linkage of the transmission pin 402; it can adopt other linkage forms such as linkage between a connecting rod and slider, a gear and rack linkage, or a worm gear linkage. When using other linkage methods, the transmission pin 402 can be removed from the remote control according to the structural design. In the fourth structure, the first bracket 21 is not limited to fixing the screen; it can also be used to fix a mobile phone or other display device. When the first bracket 21 is not fixed to the screen, it can be regarded as a rotary switch. When it functions as a switch, the switch can be a push switch, a toggle switch, a sliding switch, etc. The linkage method between the first bracket 21 and the limiting member 32 is not limited to pull-wire linkage; it can adopt other linkage methods such as linkage between a connecting rod and a slider, a gear and rack linkage, or a worm gear. When using other linkage methods, the rotating shaft can be removed from the remote control according to the structural design.

[0254] In summary, compared to the second structure, the third structure further reduces the manual retracting / untracting of the joystick, preventing accidental triggering or misuse that could damage the mechanism and providing a better user experience. Compared to the first structure, the third structure further reduces the need to manually retract the joystick before triggering the switch, further optimizing the operation and providing a better user experience. Compared to the fourth structure, the third structure further optimizes the linkage characteristics, improving the overall reliability of the component and preventing damage or abnormal user experience due to prolonged use.

[0255] Example 3

[0256] In related technologies, the display module in remote controls is often integrated with the remote control body and cannot be adjusted. In some remote controls, the display module and the remote control body are connected by a hinge structure, allowing adjustment of a single degree of rotation for the display module.

[0257] However, in this type of remote control product, the adjustable range of the display module is still relatively limited, not flexible enough, and difficult to adapt to different operating environments and different users' operating habits, resulting in reduced user comfort.

[0258] To expand the adjustable range of the display module and improve user comfort, this application provides a remote control for more flexible display module adjustment. In addition to unfolding and folding the display module and adjusting its height, users can also adjust its tilt angle, allowing for flexible adjustment of the display module to a user-friendly position.

[0259] As shown in Figures 2 to 5, this remote control specifically includes a remote control body 10, a first connector 221, a second connector 222, and a first bracket 21. The remote control body 10 includes a housing and an electronic control module such as a circuit board and battery installed inside the housing. The first connector 221 and the second connector 222 are not limited to rod-shaped or flat-shaped structures. The first connector 221 is rotatably connected to the remote control body 10, and the second connector 222 is rotatably connected to the first connector 221 and connected to the first bracket 21. The first bracket 21 can be used to mount and fix the display module 20. The first bracket 21 is connected to the remote control body 10 through the first connector 221 and the second connector 222, so that the first bracket 21 can move relative to the remote control body 10 to a folded position or an unfolded position.

[0260] It should be noted that the display module 20 can be a display screen integrated into the remote control and not detachable from the remote control body. Alternatively, the display module 20 can be a mobile terminal device with a display screen, such as a mobile phone or tablet computer, which can be detachably fixed to the remote control body.

[0261] Therefore, when the user operates the display module 20 or the first bracket 21, the connection structure formed by the first connector 221, the second connector 222, and the remote control body 10 allows the display module to be folded or unfolded relative to the remote control body 10. Referring to the diagrams in Figures 18 and 19, it is easy to understand that rotating the first connector 221 raises the second connector 222, the first bracket 21, and the display module 20, gradually unfolding the display module 20. This process allows for adjustment of the height of the display module 20. Rotating the second connector 222 allows the display module 20 to rotate relative to the first connector 221, thus adjusting the tilt angle of the display module 20.

[0262] Therefore, in the remote control of this application embodiment, the two rotating joints constructed by the first connector 221 and the second connector 222 make the adjustment range of the display module 20 more flexible and extensive, better adaptable to different operating environments (for example, avoiding the influence of reflections at different angles), and also suitable for more user groups with different operating habits (for example, different users can adjust the position of the display module according to their own comfortable posture).

[0263] Optionally, in one embodiment, when the user unfolds or folds the display module 20, the first connector 221 and the second connector 222 can remain relatively stationary. The user grasps the display module 20 or the first support 21, causing the first connector 221 connected below it to rotate, thus moving the first support 21 to a folded or unfolded position. This process also moves the display module 20 to the corresponding folded or unfolded position. During the movement of the first support 21 relative to the remote control body to the folded or unfolded position, the first connector 221 participates in the rotational movement. The first support 21 achieves its movement relative to the remote control body to the folded or unfolded position through the rotation of the first connector 221.

[0264] Optionally, in one embodiment, when the user unfolds or folds the display module 20, the user grasps the display module 20 or the first bracket 21, causing the first connecting member 221 connected below it to rotate relative to the remote control body 10. Simultaneously, the user can also cause the second connecting member 222 to rotate relative to the first connecting member 221, thus moving the first bracket 21 to the folded or unfolded position. This process also moves the display module 20 to the corresponding folded or unfolded position. During the process of the first bracket 21 moving relative to the remote control body to the folded or unfolded position, both the first connecting member 221 and the second connecting member 222 participate in the rotational movement. The first bracket 21 achieves its movement relative to the remote control body to the folded or unfolded position through the combined action of the first connecting member 221 and the second connecting member 222.

[0265] It should be noted that the unfolded position of the first bracket 21 can be different in the two cases: when the first connector 221 participates in the rotational movement, or when the first connector 221 and the second connector 222 participate in the rotational movement simultaneously.

[0266] Optionally, in one embodiment, the first bracket 21 described above includes at least one of the following: a display screen housing assembly, and a clamping mechanism for holding the display screen. The display screen housing assembly may be a shell or back cover of the display module, etc., and the clamping mechanism for holding the display screen may be a mobile phone holder or tablet computer holder with adjustable clamping space, etc.

[0267] Optionally, in one embodiment, the first connector 221 is rotatable relative to the remote control body 10 between a first position and a second position and remains in one of the two positions; in the first position, a first angle is formed between the first connector 221 and the remote control body 10, and in the second position, a second angle is formed between the first connector 221 and the remote control body 10, the second angle being greater than the first angle. Whether the first connector 221 rotates to the first position or the second position, it can remain suspended in the corresponding position to maintain posture stability.

[0268] Optionally, in one embodiment, in the first position, the end of the first connector 221 away from its rotatable connection portion is separated from the remote control body 10, and the first bracket 21 is in the unfolded position; in the second position, the end of the first connector 221 away from its rotatable connection portion is close to the remote control body 10, and the first bracket 21 is in the folded position.

[0269] Optionally, in one embodiment, the first included angle is a parameter between 0° and 5°, and the second included angle is a parameter between 80° and 110°. Referring to the illustration in Figure 19, the second position can correspond to the position when the first connector 221 is unfolded, at which time the second included angle is approximately 90°. Referring to the illustration in Figure 20, the first position can correspond to the position when the first connector 221 is folded, at which time the first included angle is approximately 0°.

[0270] Optionally, in one embodiment, as shown in FIG21, a spring shaft 223 with two positions can be installed at the part where the first connector 221 is rotatably connected to the remote control body 10. One position of the spring shaft 223 corresponds to the first position of the first connector 221, and the other position of the spring shaft 223 corresponds to the second position of the first connector 221. Thus, the elastic force of the spring shaft 223 can be used to stably hold the first connector 221 in the first position or the second position, thereby constructing the bistable characteristic of the first connector 221.

[0271] Optionally, in one embodiment, since the rotation angle of the second connector 222 directly affects the pitch angle of the first bracket 21 and the display module 20, in order to achieve continuous stepless adjustment of the pitch angle of the display module 20, the second connector 222 can rotate relative to the first connector 221 within a preset angle range. Within the preset angle range, the second connector 222 can autonomously pause at a position corresponding to at least one of the angles to remain relatively stationary with respect to the first connector 221, so that the display module 20 can maintain the corresponding pitch posture. For example, in this embodiment, the preset angle range can be 0° to 120°.

[0272] Optionally, in one embodiment, a damping shaft 224 can be installed at the rotatable connection between the first connector 221 and the second connector 222. Under the frictional resistance of the damping shaft 224, the second connector 222 can automatically pause and remain relatively stationary with the first connector 221 when it rotates to any position relative to the first connector 221. Thus, by using the damping shaft 224, the multistable characteristics of the second connector 222 can be constructed.

[0273] Optionally, in one embodiment, as shown in FIG21, the second connector 222 and the first connector 221 are rotatably connected via a damping shaft 224 at one end of the second connector 222 relative to the rotation axis of the first connector 221.

[0274] Along the other end of the axis of rotation of the second connector 222 relative to the first connector 221, the second connector 222 and the first connector 221 are provided with a through wiring channel 225.

[0275] Referring to the schematic diagram in Figure 21, a damping shaft 224 is provided at one end of the second connector 222 relative to the first connector 221 in the direction of rotation axis, and a through hole is opened at the other end to form a wiring channel 225. On the one hand, it can facilitate the concealment of the wires connecting the remote control body 10 and the display module 20. On the other hand, it also helps to reduce the hinge cost of the rotating part and reduce the size of the connecting part, making it easier to fold and store the second connector 222 and the first connector 221.

[0276] Optionally, in one embodiment, as shown in FIG21, the first connector 221 is provided with a receiving space 2211, and when the second connector 222 is rotated relative to the first connector 221 to a folded state, at least a portion of the second connector 222 is located in the receiving space 2211. Exemplarily, the receiving space 2211 may be a groove recessed along the thickness direction of the first connector 221.

[0277] Referring to the illustration in Figure 22, at least a portion of the second connector 222 can be embedded in the receiving space 2211, thereby reducing the thickness of the second connector 222 and the first connector 221 after folding and storage.

[0278] Optionally, as shown in Figure 22, when the included angle formed by the rotation of the second connector 222 relative to the first connector 221 is 0°, the second connector 222 is folded to its limit position relative to the first connector 221, at which point the second connector 222 is completely housed within the accommodating space 2211. This achieves the minimum thickness of both the second connector 222 and the first connector 221 after folding and storage.

[0279] Optionally, in one embodiment, the first bracket 21 is rotatably connected to the second connector 222. In this case, the display module can rotate relative to the second connector 222, making the posture adjustment of the display module more flexible and versatile.

[0280] Optionally, in one embodiment, as illustrated in Figures 4, 23, and 24, the first bracket 21 can rotate relative to the second connector 222 between a horizontal and a vertical position. In the horizontal position, the length direction of the first bracket 21 is parallel to the line connecting the two joysticks of the remote control body 10; in the vertical position, the length direction of the first bracket 21 is perpendicular to the line connecting the two joysticks of the remote control body 10. Therefore, the remote control in this embodiment can adjust not only the tilt of the display module 20 but also its roll, such as switching the horizontal and vertical orientation of the display module 20 to achieve switching between horizontal and vertical modes, thus meeting the needs of horizontal and vertical screen display respectively, and adapting to both horizontal and vertical screen displays. Especially when displaying vertical compositions in vertical mode, a full-screen effect can be achieved, helping to reduce black borders and improving the browsing experience.

[0281] Optionally, in one embodiment, as shown in FIG5, a rotation mechanism 23 is provided at the rotatable connection between the first bracket 21 and the second connector 222. The rotation mechanism 23 has at least a first position corresponding to the horizontal position and a second position corresponding to the vertical position. Exemplarily, the rotation mechanism 23 in this embodiment can be a damping shaft or a spring shaft with two positions. Using this rotation mechanism 23, the display module can be stably maintained in either the horizontal or vertical position.

[0282] Optionally, in one embodiment, the remote control of this application embodiment, based on the aforementioned horizontal and vertical rotation switching of the display module 20, can further include a detection element A 35 to achieve linkage control between directional rotation and display mode. Specifically, as shown in FIG25, the remote control also includes a processor 33 and a detection element A 35. The processor 33 is the control center of the remote control, which can analyze and process the signals from the detection element A 35 and output corresponding control signals. The detection element A 35 is used to detect relevant information that the pose of the first support 21 meets preset conditions. The processor 33 is used to trigger the display module 20 to switch between horizontal and vertical modes in response to the detection element A 35 detecting that the pose of the first support 21 meets preset conditions. The horizontal mode corresponds to the horizontal position, and the vertical mode corresponds to the vertical position. Thus, when the display module 20 is rotated to the horizontal position, it can be used to display horizontal images, and when the display module 20 is rotated to the vertical position, it can be used to display vertical images, thus making full use of the screen display area.

[0283] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, a trigger position A can be designed between the horizontal and vertical positions of the first bracket 21. When the detection element A 35 detects that the first bracket 21 rotates to or exceeds the trigger position A, the processor 33 determines that the pose of the first bracket 21 meets the relevant information of the preset conditions, thereby controlling the display module 20 to display in the corresponding horizontal or vertical mode.

[0284] Optionally, in one embodiment, the aforementioned detection element A 35 includes a contact detection element, such as a collision-type mechanical switch, which can be triggered by the collision of the mechanical switch during the rotation of the first bracket 21 to output a corresponding signal, so that the processor can determine whether the current display module 20 is rotating from the horizontal position to the vertical position or in the opposite direction.

[0285] Optionally, in one embodiment, the aforementioned detection element A 35 includes a non-contact detection element. Compared to contact detection elements, non-contact detection elements do not experience mechanical wear and have a longer service life. The non-contact detection element includes a trigger and a sensor, the sensor being capable of sensing the trigger in a non-contact manner.

[0286] For example, as shown in Figures 26 and 27, the sensing element includes a Hall element 24, and the triggering element includes a magnet 25. One of the Hall element and the magnet is fixedly connected to the first bracket 21, and the other is fixedly connected to the second connector 222. When the first bracket 21 rotates relative to the second connector 222, the Hall element 24 rotates relative to the magnet 25, and the changing magnetic field triggers the Hall element 24 to output a corresponding position signal. Specifically, as illustrated in Figures 26 and 27, since the first bracket 21 has a larger area than the second connector 222, it is easier to wire the Hall element 24. Therefore, the Hall element 24 is fixedly connected to the first bracket 21, and the magnet 25 is fixedly connected to the second connector 222.

[0287] Optionally, in one embodiment, the remote control of this application is used to control a movable platform. When the user rotates the display module, changing its horizontal or vertical orientation, the remote control can detect this change and transmit relevant control commands to the movable platform, enabling the movable platform to control its mounted load to switch between horizontal and vertical orientations. Taking a camera as an example, the load can be controlled to switch between horizontal and vertical shooting orientations. When the display module 20 is rotated to a horizontal position, the camera can switch to the corresponding horizontal shooting orientation; when the display module 20 is rotated to a vertical position, the camera can switch to the corresponding vertical shooting orientation. Therefore, this remote control can also automatically send the horizontal or vertical position information of the display module 20 to the movable platform, controlling its load to change orientation accordingly, without requiring manual adjustment, resulting in a higher degree of automation and intelligence.

[0288] Optionally, in remote controls of related technologies, when the display module 20 is folded relative to the remote control body, the display surface is attached to the remote control body, causing inconvenience for the user when browsing the captured footage. In one embodiment of this application, as shown in Figures 2 and 28, when the display module 20 is fixedly connected to the first bracket 21, regardless of whether the first bracket 21 is in the folded or unfolded position, the display surface of the display module 20 is always away from the remote control body. In particular, when the first bracket 21 is in the folded position, the display surface of the display module 20 can still be exposed, making it more convenient for the user to view the display screen of the display module 20. For example, the user can continue to browse the work content of the mobile platform after the work task of the mobile platform is completed, or continue to browse the captured footage after the shooting task of the camera mounted on the mobile platform is completed.

[0289] Optionally, in one embodiment, when the first bracket 21 is in the folded position, the first bracket 21, the first connector 221, and the second connector 222 are all located within the space between the display module 20 and the remote control body 10. For example, a recessed space can be designed to be formed on the surface of the remote control body 10, which can at least accommodate the first connector 221 and the second connector 222. When the user operates, for example, by pushing or pressing the display module 20, gradually moving the first bracket 21 to the folded position, the first bracket 21, the first connector 221, and the second connector 222 are all located on the back of the display module 20, hidden between the display module 20 and the remote control body 10. This type of remote control structure further reduces the space occupied in storage.

[0290] The following description, using a specific application example, illustrates a foldable screen remote control provided in this application:

[0291] The remote control body 10 of this application embodiment is equipped with a pivot and a connecting rod, which are connected to the screen frame to realize the design of folding and unfolding the screen. The functions of the pivot and the connecting rod are the same as those of the first connector 221, the second connector 222, and the corresponding damping shaft, spring shaft, and rotation mechanism 23 in the aforementioned embodiment. The screen frame is the first bracket 21 in the aforementioned embodiment.

[0292] Referring to Figures 2 and 4, the display module 20 and the remote control body 10 are connected by a three-stage hinge and a two-stage linkage. The first-stage linkage is the first connecting member 221, the second-stage linkage is the second connecting member 222, the first-stage hinge is the hinge between the first-stage linkage and the remote control body 10, the second-stage hinge is the hinge between the first-stage linkage and the second-stage linkage, and the third-stage hinge is the hinge between the second-stage linkage and the first bracket 21. The first-stage hinge is a bistable hinge, which, together with the first-stage linkage, enables the opening and closing of the display section; the second-stage hinge is a multistable hinge, which, together with the second-stage linkage, enables tilt adjustment of the screen at any angle; and the third-stage hinge is a bistable hinge, enabling landscape / portrait switching.

[0293] A bistable shaft is a shaft that can remain in one of two stable states without tilting towards the other. A multistable shaft is a shaft that can maintain multiple stable states. This type of shaft can freely switch between different states and remains stable in a specific state until an external force is applied to it, causing it to transition to another stable state. The connection between the first-stage and second-stage links uses a hinge structure and employs a multistable shaft design.

[0294] As shown in Figure 18, the screen can be folded and unfolded via the first-stage linkage. As shown in Figure 19, the screen can be tilted via the second-stage linkage. As shown in Figures 23 to 27, the screen can be switched between portrait and landscape modes via the third-stage pivot (i.e., the rotation mechanism 23).

[0295] In addition, it should be noted that, besides the combination of hinge and linkage shown in the embodiments of this application, a two-axis pull-out structure, a two-axis flip-up structure, or a four-link structure can also be used to achieve the folding or unfolding of the screen.

[0296] In the two-axis pull-out structure, a single-line damping shaft is provided at the part where the connecting rod connects to the screen frame, and a single-stop spring shaft is provided at the part where the connecting rod connects to the remote control body. The remote control body is also equipped with a guide rail for the connecting rod to pull out.

[0297] In the two-axis flip structure, a linear damping shaft is set at the part where the connecting rod connects to the screen frame, and a disc damping shaft is set at the part where the connecting rod connects to the remote control body. The display module can be folded or unfolded relative to the remote control body, and can also be rotated back and forth relative to the remote control body to change the front and back sides.

[0298] In the four-bar linkage structure, the display module and the remote control body are connected by a linkage to form a four-bar mechanism. Two spring shafts are set at the hinge of the four-bar mechanism to realize the folding or unfolding of the screen.

[0299] The following is a description of a remote control capable of detecting screen orientation switching provided in this application, using a specific application example:

[0300] As illustrated in Figures 24 to 27, in the remote control of this embodiment, a Hall element 24 is mounted on the screen frame (e.g., corresponding to the first bracket 21), and a magnet 25 is mounted on a base (i.e., the second connector 222) that can rotate relative to the screen frame. The relative angular displacement between the two is converted into the magnetic field strength detected by the Hall element 24 to achieve the horizontal / vertical screen detection design. Alternatively, the magnet 25 can be mounted on the screen frame, and the Hall element 24 can be mounted on the base. The specific configuration can be determined based on the space available for the base and the screen frame; for example, the Hall element 24 can be mounted on a component with more space to facilitate wiring of the Hall element 24.

[0301] Hall element 24 is fixed to the screen frame, and magnet 25 is fixed to the base. The screen frame and the base are connected by a rotating shaft, and the two can rotate relative to each other, causing the relative angle between magnet 25 and Hall element 24 to change. Hall element 24 senses the change in magnetic field strength and realizes screen rotation detection.

[0302] Example 4

[0303] Some remote controls in related technologies have a built-in display module that can be folded. Other remote controls do not have a built-in display module but have a foldable support structure designed on them. This support mechanism can hold and fix terminal devices with display modules, such as mobile phones. Therefore, this type of remote control can also be regarded as a remote control with a foldable display module.

[0304] However, in remote control products with built-in display modules, an additional power button is required to power on the remote. Users must unfold the remote's components and then press and hold the power button repeatedly. In remote control products with clamping mechanisms, users need to power on both the remote and the terminal device (which can power on the display module). The terminal device and remote are then connected via wired or wireless connection to communicate and power on. Therefore, the power-on operation of remote controls in these technologies is complex, cumbersome, and time-consuming, resulting in poor usability and making them unsuitable for scenarios requiring rapid operation of a controlled device, such as a mobile platform.

[0305] In this embodiment, the display module of the remote control can be unfolded or folded to expand the adjustable range of the display module and improve user comfort. Simultaneously, to simplify the power-on process of the remote control, this embodiment provides a remote control that can automatically trigger the display module to enter power-on mode by utilizing the unfolding movement of the display module. As shown in Figures 2, 29, 30, and 31, the remote control in this embodiment includes a remote control body 10, a display module 20, and a first bracket 21. The remote control body 10 includes a housing and an electronic control module such as a circuit board and battery installed inside the housing. The first bracket 21 can be used to mount and fix the display module 20. The first bracket 21 can move between a folded position and an unfolded position relative to the remote control body 10, thereby causing the display module 20 to be in the corresponding folded or unfolded position.

[0306] The remote control also includes a detection element B 34 and a processor 33. The detection element B 34 is used to detect information related to whether the pose of the first bracket 21 and / or the display module 20 meets the first preset condition. After receiving the information transmitted by the detection element B 34, the processor 33, in response to the information, can control the display module 20 to automatically execute the power-on mode. It is understood that the power-on mode described in this embodiment emphasizes that after the remote control is powered on, the processor starts working and can control the display module 20 to power on.

[0307] Therefore, the remote control in this embodiment links the unfolding operation of the display module 20 with the power-on operation of the display module 20, so that when the display module 20 is unfolded, it can automatically control the display module 20 to execute the power-on mode. This reduces manual intervention and makes it simpler and faster to trigger the display module 20 to execute the power-on mode, allowing the remote control to quickly enter the ready state and thus improving the efficiency of using the remote control to control the controlled end, such as a mobile platform, to operate quickly.

[0308] Optionally, in one embodiment, the processor 33 controls the display module 20 to execute the power-on mode during the user's unfolding of the display module. Specifically, a trigger position B can be designed between the folded position and the unfolded position of the first bracket 21 and / or the display module 20. When the first bracket 21 and / or the display module 20 moves to or beyond the trigger position B during its movement from the folded position to the unfolded position, the detection element B 34 outputs relevant information indicating that the pose of the first bracket 21 and / or the display module 20 meets a first preset condition. Upon receiving this information, the processor 33 determines that the user is unfolding the display module 20 and can then trigger the execution of the power-on mode.

[0309] For example, the trigger position B mentioned above includes the unfolded position. That is, the display module 20 is powered on only when it moves to the preset unfolded position. This avoids accidental power-on triggered by minor movements of the display module 20, ensuring the accuracy of the power-on trigger. It guarantees that the remote control will only activate the power-on mode once the display module 20 has reached the unfolded position, preventing false triggers. Of course, the trigger position B may also include a position between the folded and unfolded positions to ensure timely triggering and further improve the power-on efficiency of the remote control.

[0310] Optionally, in one embodiment, as shown in FIG32, the remote control of this application embodiment further includes a first circuit 26 and a second circuit 27. The detection element B 34 is electrically connected to the input terminal of the first circuit 26, the output terminal of the first circuit 26 is electrically connected to the input terminal of the processor 33 and the input terminal of the second circuit 26, and the output terminal of the second circuit 26 is electrically connected to the input terminal of the processor 33.

[0311] When the pose of the first bracket 21 and / or the display module 20 meets the first preset condition, the detection element B 34 can trigger the output terminal of the first circuit 26 to output a trigger signal A (for example, the trigger signal A can be MCU_LCD_TWS_DET, which indicates that the display module is unfolded). In response to the trigger signal A, the second circuit 27 can output a power-on signal (for example, VYSY_SWITCH) to control the processor 33 to start working and be able to respond to the received signals.

[0312] When the processor 33 receives both the power-on signal and the trigger signal A, it begins to trigger the display module 20 to execute the power-on mode, which means at least completing the lighting of the display screen and the rendering and loading of the visual operation interface.

[0313] Optionally, in one embodiment, the pulse width of the trigger signal A is smaller than the pulse width of the power-on signal, and the generation time of the trigger signal A is earlier than the generation time of the power-on signal. Therefore, it can be ensured that the processor 33 can still receive the trigger signal A after it is powered on, and control the display module 20 to execute the power-on mode according to the trigger signal A.

[0314] Optionally, in one embodiment, as shown in FIG33, the second circuit 27 in this embodiment includes a capacitor C1 and a first MOS transistor Q1. The capacitor C1 is connected in series between the detection element B34 and the gate of the first MOS transistor Q1, and the source or drain of the first MOS transistor Q1 forms the output terminal of the second circuit 27.

[0315] For example, in the second circuit 27 shown in Figure 33, the first MOS transistor Q1 is an NMOS transistor, and the drain of the first MOS transistor Q1 forms the output terminal of the second circuit 27. When the detection device B 34 detects that the display module 20 is unfolding, it can turn on the power supply VBAT to form a pulse signal. Under the action of the pulse signal, it starts to charge the capacitor C1. During the charging process of the capacitor C1, the gate level of the first MOS transistor Q1 is gradually pulled up, so that its source and drain are turned on. Then, the initial default high level of the drain of the first MOS transistor Q1 is pulled down, so that the drain of the first MOS transistor Q1 can output a low level signal with a long duration as a power-on signal.

[0316] Optionally, in one embodiment, as shown in FIG33, the first circuit 26 in this embodiment includes a second MOS transistor Q2, the detection element B 34 is electrically connected to the gate of the second MOS transistor Q2, and the source or drain of the second MOS transistor Q2 forms the output terminal of the first circuit 26.

[0317] For example, in the first circuit 26 shown in Figure 33, the second MOS transistor Q2 is an NMOS transistor, and the drain of the second MOS transistor Q2 forms the output terminal of the first circuit 26. When the detection device B 34 detects that the display module 20 is unfolding, the power supply VBAT can be turned on, the gate level of the second MOS transistor Q2 is pulled high, so that its source and drain are connected. Then, the initial default high level of the drain of the first MOS transistor Q1 is pulled low, so that the drain of the first MOS transistor Q1 can output a low-level pulse signal as a trigger signal A.

[0318] Optionally, in one embodiment, as illustrated in FIG32, the remote control of this application embodiment further includes a third circuit 28, the output terminal of the third circuit 28 being electrically connected to the input terminal of the processor 33 and the input terminal of the second circuit 27. The output terminal of the third circuit 28 is used to output a trigger signal B generated when the USB power is turned on.

[0319] In this scenario, trigger signal B is input to processor 33 on one side and to the second circuit 27 on the other side to form a power-on signal. When processor 33 receives both the power-on signal and trigger signal B, it determines that an external USB power supply is connected. Processor 33 then triggers the remote control to execute charging mode. At this time, the circuitry related to the charging function in the remote control starts working, and the display module can choose not to display the power-on visual interface to save power.

[0320] Optionally, in one embodiment, as illustrated in FIG32, the remote control of this application embodiment further includes a fourth circuit 29, the output terminal of the fourth circuit 29 being electrically connected to the input terminal of the processor 33 and the input terminal of the second circuit 27. The output terminal of the fourth circuit 29 is used to output a trigger signal C generated when the user operates a control on the remote control. The control can be a physical power button on the remote control.

[0321] In this scenario, the trigger signal C is input to the processor 33 on one side and to the second circuit 27 on the other to form a power-on signal. When the processor 33 receives both the power-on signal and the trigger signal C, if the duration of the trigger signal C is less than a preset duration, the processor 33 can determine that it is a short press operation by the user, triggering the remote control to output sound, light, or electrical prompts. These prompts indicate the difference between the current state of the remote control and its depleted power state; for example, the remaining battery power or remaining usage time can be displayed through voice, text, or light bars. When the processor 33 receives both the power-on signal and the trigger signal C, if the duration of the trigger signal C is greater than or equal to the preset duration, the processor 33 can determine that it is a long press operation by the user, triggering the display module 20 to enter power-on mode.

[0322] Optionally, in one embodiment, considering that the user may only fold the display module 20 for use, such as browsing data in the folded state, and not intend to control the remote control to turn it off, the processor 33 is further configured to: in response to the first bracket 21 moving from the unfolded position to the folded position, trigger the remote control to maintain the power supply to prevent the remote control from mistakenly executing the power-off mode, ensuring that the display module 20 can still be used after folding. Furthermore, when the display module 20 is unfolded again, there is no need to spend time re-executing the power-on mode, allowing for quick use of the remote control.

[0323] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, in order to save the power of the remote control, a sleep mode can also be configured for the remote control. The processor 33 is also used to trigger the remote control to execute the sleep mode. In the sleep mode, the power consumption of the remote control is less than the power consumption in the power-on state.

[0324] Specifically, when executing sleep mode, at least one of the remote control body 10 and the display module 20 may be in sleep mode. When the remote control body 10 is in sleep mode, some electronic components and circuits within the remote control body 10 may temporarily stop working. When the display module 20 is in sleep mode, the display module 20 may be in a screen-off state. In sleep mode, the remote control controls can be operated, such as pressing the power button or touching the display module, to control the display module 20 to exit sleep mode.

[0325] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, the aforementioned detection element B 34, in addition to transmitting signals to the processor 33 to trigger the display module 20 to execute the power-on mode, can also automatically trigger the remote control to execute the sleep mode.

[0326] Specifically, the detection component B 34 is also used to detect information related to whether the pose of the first bracket 21 and / or the display module 20 meets the second preset condition. After receiving the information transmitted by the detection component B 34, the processor 33 responds to the information by triggering the remote control to execute a sleep mode. Therefore, for the operation of the display module 20, such as unfolding the display module 20, the display module 20 can be triggered to power on. For example, folding the display module 20 can trigger the remote control to execute a sleep mode, instead of directly causing the remote control to quickly power off. This ensures the reliability or user experience of the remote control in actual use scenarios with low power consumption. For example, it can prevent the remote control from powering off due to accidental folding of the display module 20, thus affecting the reliability of the remote control controlling the controlled end, and it also facilitates actively folding the display module 20 to view data without triggering a power-off behavior that affects the user experience.

[0327] Optionally, in one embodiment, the processor 33 can trigger the remote control to execute the sleep mode during the user's folding of the display module. Specifically, a trigger position C can be designed between the folded and unfolded positions of the first bracket 21 and / or the display module 20. When the first bracket 21 and / or the display module 20 moves to or beyond the trigger position C during its movement from the unfolded position to the folded position, the detection element B 34 outputs relevant information indicating that the pose of the first bracket 21 and / or the display module 20 meets a second preset condition. Upon receiving this information, the processor 33 determines that the user is folding the display module 20 and can then trigger the execution of the sleep mode.

[0328] For example, the trigger position C mentioned above includes the folded position. That is, the sleep mode is only activated when the display module 20 moves to the preset folded position. This avoids accidental sleep mode activation due to slight folding of the display module 20, ensuring the accuracy of sleep mode activation and preventing accidental activation when adjusting the posture of the display module 20. Of course, the trigger position C may also include a position between the unfolded and folded positions to ensure timely sleep mode activation, further improving the efficiency of entering sleep mode and reducing power consumption.

[0329] Optionally, in one embodiment, when the remote controller is in sleep mode, the wireless communication module inside the remote controller (e.g., a 2.4GHz / 5.8GHz radio frequency module) can remain in a wake-up state to enable the remote controller to maintain communication with the mobile platform it needs to control, and prevent loss of connection and control with the mobile platform, such as a drone.

[0330] Optionally, in one embodiment, when the remote control is in sleep mode, if the user operates the physical buttons, switches, or other controls on the remote control, the processor can respond to such operation by triggering the remote control to exit sleep mode and wake up the remote control to re-enter working mode.

[0331] For example, when the remote control is in sleep mode, if the user briefly presses the physical button switch, the physical button switch can trigger the processor 33 to send a control signal to turn on the display module 20, which is in a screen-off state.

[0332] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, the power-off function of the remote control can be controlled by software running in the processor 33 to prevent accidental power-off caused by human touch.

[0333] Specifically, in this embodiment, the remote control performing a power-off mode can refer to at least one of the remote control body 10 performing a power-off mode and the display module 20 performing a power-off mode. The so-called power-off mode means completely disconnecting the power supply, such as electrical power, to the remote control body 10 and / or the display module 20.

[0334] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, the detection element B 34 can be used to set a third preset condition for the remote control to execute the power-off mode, so as to ensure the safe power-off of the remote control. Specifically, the detection element B 34 is also used to detect relevant information that the pose of the first bracket 21 and / or the display module 20 meets the third preset condition. After receiving the information transmitted by the detection element B 34, the processor 33 responds to the information and triggers the remote control to execute the power-off mode.

[0335] Optionally, in one embodiment, the processor 33 triggers the remote control to execute the power-off mode during the user's folding of the display module 20. Specifically, a trigger position D can be designed between the folded and unfolded positions of the first bracket 21 and / or the display module 20. When the first bracket 21 and / or the display module 20 moves to or beyond the trigger position D during its movement from the unfolded position to the folded position, the detection element B 34 outputs relevant information indicating that the pose of the first bracket 21 and / or the display module 20 meets a third preset condition. Upon receiving this information, the processor 33 determines that the user is folding the display module 20 and can then trigger the execution of the power-off mode.

[0336] For example, the trigger position D mentioned above includes the folded position. That is, the power-off mode is only activated when the display module 20 moves to the preset folded position. This avoids accidental power-off triggered by small movements of the display module 20, ensuring the accuracy of the power-off trigger and preventing false triggering. Of course, the trigger position D may also include a position between the unfolded position and the folded position to ensure timely power-off triggering, further improving the power-off efficiency of the remote control and facilitating quick storage or folding of the remote control.

[0337] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, when the detection element B 34 detects that the pose of the first bracket 21 and / or the display module 20 meets the relevant information of the third preset condition, and the movable platform connected to the remote controller is in a non-working state, the processor 33 triggers the remote controller to execute the shutdown mode. Therefore, when the movable platform is in a non-working state, such as when the movable platform is already powered off, the remote controller's shutdown will not cause the movable platform to lose control, effectively ensuring the operational safety of remote control.

[0338] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, when the detection element B 34 detects that the pose of the first bracket 21 and / or the display module 20 meets the relevant information of the third preset condition, and the movable platform connected to the remote control is in a non-working state, and no user operation on the remote control is received within a preset time period, the processor 33 triggers the remote control to execute the shutdown mode. Since the movable platform is in a non-working state and the user has not operated the remote control within the preset time period, the user's true intention to shut down can be determined, thereby further eliminating shutdowns caused by user negligence or unexpected events, preventing loss of control of the movable platform, and further improving the operational safety of remote control.

[0339] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, when the first bracket 21 and / or display module 20 moves from the unfolded position to the folded position, if the detection element B 34 detects that the pose of the first bracket 21 and / or display module 20 meets the relevant information of the third preset condition, the processor 33 can also ignore the information and not respond to it, thus not triggering the remote control to execute the power-off mode. This remote control provides a way to refuse the possibility of powering off by folding the display module 20. The user can power off by pressing and holding the physical button switch, ensuring that the power-off mode is only executed when there is a clear intention to power off, further ensuring reliability and security.

[0340] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, as shown in FIG32, the remote control includes a second circuit 27. The second circuit 27 can transmit a power-on signal to the processor 33 and also receive a power-off signal from the processor 33. When the processor 33 transmits a power-off signal to the second circuit 27, the second circuit 27 can turn off the power to the remote control upon receiving the power-off signal, thereby causing the remote control to execute a power-off mode. It should be noted that when the processor 33 issues a power-off signal, it also needs to complete a series of processes such as data checking, backup, and storage to ensure data security.

[0341] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, the processor 33 may output a power-down signal to the second circuit 27 when at least one of the following conditions is met:

[0342] a) In response to receiving user actions on remote control controls.

[0343] For example, when a user presses and holds a physical button switch, the physical button switch triggers the processor 33 to output a power-down signal.

[0344] b) No user operation on the remote control is received within the preset time period.

[0345] For example, if the user does not operate the physical button switch for more than 1 minute, and the processor 33 does not receive a trigger signal from the physical button switch within the preset time period, then it outputs a power-off signal.

[0346] Optionally, in one embodiment, the aforementioned control includes at least one of the following: buttons on a remote control, buttons on the interactive interface of the remote control's display module (e.g., menu options on a touchscreen interface).

[0347] Optionally, in one embodiment, the aforementioned detection element B 34 includes a contact detection element or a non-contact detection element. Compared with contact detection elements, non-contact detection elements do not experience mechanical wear and have a longer service life.

[0348] Optionally, in one embodiment, the aforementioned contact detection device includes a switch, such as a collision-type mechanical switch. The switch is electrically connected to the processor 33. When the posture of the first bracket 21 and / or the display module 20 during its movement from the folded position to the unfolded position meets a first preset condition, the switch is turned on, enabling the processor 33 to trigger the display module 20 to execute the power-on mode. This contact detection device can operate in the power-off state without increasing power consumption, which is beneficial for long-term storage in the power-off state. In addition, it has strong anti-interference capabilities, is not easily affected by external interference, and can ensure detection accuracy.

[0349] Optionally, in one embodiment, when a non-contact detection element is used, for a non-contact detection element including a trigger and a sensor, the sensor can sense the trigger in a non-contact manner. One of the moving parts connected to the sensor and the first bracket 21 and the remote control body 10 is fixed together, and the other of the moving parts connected to the trigger and the first bracket 21 and the remote control body 10 is fixed together.

[0350] When the first bracket 21 moves relative to the remote control body 10, the sensing element also moves relative to the triggering element, thereby generating different triggering signals at different positions.

[0351] For example, the remote control body 10 can provide a larger and more reliable wiring area and space for the sensor, the sensor can be fixed on the remote control body 10, and the trigger can be fixed on the moving part connected to the first bracket 21.

[0352] Optionally, in one embodiment, the sensing element includes at least one of the following: a magnetic sensor, a photoelectric sensor, a capacitive sensor, or a vision sensor. The magnetic sensor may include a Hall sensor, a reed switch, or a magnetic encoder.

[0353] The following are some examples of combinations of sensors and triggers: the sensor includes a magnetic sensor and the trigger includes a magnet; the sensor includes a photoelectric sensor and the trigger includes a reflector; the sensor includes a capacitive sensor and the trigger includes an electrode plate; the sensor includes a vision sensor and the trigger includes a visual marker.

[0354] Optionally, in one embodiment, another type of non-contact detection device includes a sensor that does not rely on a dedicated trigger. In this detection method, the sensor is fixed to the remote control body 10 and used to monitor the movement position of the first bracket 21 relative to the remote control body 10. For example, the sensor may include an infrared sensor, a laser sensor, an ultrasonic sensor, or a millimeter-wave radar sensor. This non-contact detection device can obtain the accurate position of the first bracket 21 by using electromagnetic wave reflection ranging.

[0355] The following describes a specific application example of a remote control with an automatically power-on screen that unfolds, as provided in this application:

[0356] The remote control in this embodiment identifies the unfolded and folded states of the screen (which may correspond to the display module 20 in the above embodiment) by setting a detection element B 34, thereby controlling the remote control to automatically power on. Figure 29 shows a schematic diagram where the detection element B 34 is not triggered when the screen is in the folded position. Figure 30 shows a schematic diagram where the detection element B 34 is triggered when the screen is in the unfolded position.

[0357] During the screen unfolding process, the connected mechanical structure triggers the detection component B 34, which, through the first circuit 26 shown in Figures 32 and 33, controls the remote control's system to power on. It's worth noting that this system power-on corresponds to a brief power supply to the remote control. After the system powers on, it triggers the remote control's processor to power on. Whether the system power-on or the remote control's power supply needs to be maintained continuously depends on the processor's control strategy. Once the processor powers on, it can further analyze and process the data to determine whether to execute subsequent control strategies, such as controlling the remote control to power on / off, displaying battery level, etc.

[0358] In Figure 33, VBAT is the battery cell voltage, which is always energized when the device is off. When the screen unfolds, the detection element B 34 is turned on, generating a pulse signal that turns on the first MOSFET Q1, outputting a low-level signal VSYS_SWITCH to the processor 33, thus powering on the processor 33. Simultaneously, the second MOSFET Q2 is turned on, outputting a low-level screen unfolding signal MCU_LCD_TWS_DET. After detecting this low-level signal, the processor 33 controls the system power-on via the remote control.

[0359] In addition, for different operation methods such as button operation, screen unfolding, and USB charging cable insertion, this application embodiment also designs a variety of power-on / off compatibility circuits, as shown in Figure 32.

[0360] In Figure 32, the second circuit 27 can receive screen unfolding signals (e.g., trigger signal A), USB signals (e.g., trigger signal B), and button signals (e.g., trigger signal C) to trigger the processor 33 to power on, while power-off must be controlled by software. In this way, the screen unfolding circuit (e.g., the first circuit 26) will not affect the normal operation of the system under any circumstances, and will not cause the system to lose power unexpectedly.

[0361] The processor 33 can be powered on by unfolding the screen, pressing a button, or inserting a USB cable. However, this power-on action is implemented by hardware, and the system cannot distinguish between the power-on methods. Therefore, it still relies on further checks by the software program in the processor 33 shown in Figure 32.

[0362] In Figure 32, after the processor 33 is powered on, the software code further determines the reason for the power-on:

[0363] First, it checks if the USB is plugged in. If the USB is plugged in, the third circuit 28 will output a trigger signal B, and then enter the charging mode.

[0364] If the USB is not inserted, the system continues to check if the button is pressed. If the button is pressed, the fourth circuit 29 will output a trigger signal C, indicating that the power-on reason is that the button is pressed. The software will wait for the button to be pressed and held to perform initialization and power-on. If the button is not pressed and held within 3 seconds, the system will be powered down by the remote control. After the system is powered down, the remote control will turn off the device.

[0365] If no signals are detected from either the USB port or the buttons, the power-on is triggered by the screen unfolding. However, it is still necessary to continue checking for output from the first circuit 26. This is to utilize the preset time (e.g., 500ms) for processor 33 startup and preceding software code execution to perform software-level anti-interference processing. If the first circuit 26 has output, it indicates that there was a signal during the 500ms period from screen unfolding to software code execution. This confirms that screen unfolding caused processor 33 to power on, and the system continues initialization to control the remote control to power on. If the software detects no output from the first circuit 26, it indicates that interference caused the first circuit 26 to malfunction. In this case, the software will power down the system to control the remote control to power off.

[0366] In the remote control of this application embodiment, a mechanical switch can be used to identify whether the screen is unfolded or folded, without adding extra power consumption in the power-off state, which is beneficial for long-term storage in the power-off state; it has strong anti-interference ability, is not affected by external interference, and is more user-friendly.

[0367] Finally, as shown in Figure 34, this application embodiment also discloses a control system, which may include a remote controller 100 and a movable platform 200. The remote controller 100 may include the remote controller of any of the foregoing embodiments. Specifically, the remote controller 100 is used to control the movable platform 200. For ease of illustration, Figure 34 only shows one remote controller 100 and one movable platform 200 as an example; it can be understood that in actual scenarios, the number of remote controllers 100 and the number of movable platforms 200 can be arbitrary, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0368] Both the terminal device 100 and the mobile platform 200 have the ability to communicate with each other. Optionally, information exchange between the remote controller 100 and the mobile platform 200 can be relayed through a cloud server or relay device, or they can communicate directly. Optionally, a communication link can be established between the remote controller 100 and the mobile platform 200, and the two parties can exchange information based on the established communication link. Optionally, the remote controller 100 can send control commands to the mobile platform 200 through the communication link to control the mobile platform 200. Optionally, the mobile platform 200 can send its status information and / or operational information to the remote controller 100 through the communication link, so that the remote controller 100 can view various information related to the mobile platform 200.

[0369] The mobile platform 200 in this embodiment can refer to any movable device.
