Embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing and concrete embodiment thereof, describe technical scheme of the present invention in detail.
With reference to Fig. 1, notebook computer comprises display screen 1 and base 5.Between display screen 1 and base 5, be provided with U-shaped rotating shaft 2-2, it can be around the first axis direction and the upset of the second axis direction, and it is upper that U-shaped rotating shaft 2-2 one end is connected in the first support external member 2-1 pivotly, and the other end is connected on the second support external member 2-3 pivotly; First supports external member 2-1 is fixed on the display screen 1 of computer, and second supports external member 2-3 is fixed on the base 5 of computer.Cog 3-1 and the first axle center in pitch wheel mechanism are fixed on the display screen 1 of notebook with one heart, lower gear 3-2 and the second axle center are fixed on the base 5 of notebook computer with one heart, thereby make the display screen 1 of notebook computer can realize stably rotation with respect to base 5.Wire rod box 4 is for holding wire rod.Wherein U-shaped rotating shaft 2-2 and the first support external member 2-1 and second support and being connected of external member 2-3 adopt wringing fit, can lean on its torsion that friction force produces each other to carry out supporting display screen 1; This U-shaped rotating shaft 2-2 and first supports between external member 2-1 and the die cavity of the second support external member 2-3 and can fill senior thick liquid lubricant simultaneously, therefore can guarantee to rotate smooth and easy flexible.
Gear mate in the rotating mechanism of the first embodiment of the present invention and the structure of rotating shaft part can be more obviously shown with reference to Fig. 2 and Fig. 3.Fig. 4-Fig. 7 is the various view of the first embodiment of notebook computer of the present invention.From figure, we can find out the free-open-close of 0 ° to 360 ° that adopts the present invention can successfully realize notebook computer significantly.
Fig. 8 is the cabling schematic diagram of the first embodiment of notebook computer of the present invention.Known with reference to Fig. 8, the wire rod 7 of walking out from notebook display screen 1 passes by the 3-1 endoporus that cogs, and then pierces in lower gear 3-2, thereby enters in the base 5 of notebook.Wire rod box 4 is for the protection of data line.
Above-mentioned the first embodiment is a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to said structure.Wherein, the gear mechanism in the present embodiment can be an independent mechanism, also can adopt at the first support external member 2-1 and the second outside surface that supports external member 2-3 and process the function that intermeshing tooth is realized gear mechanism.First supports external member 2-1 and second, and to support external member 2-3 can be parts independently, adopts certain connected mode to be individually fixed in display screen 1 and base 5, also can be for directly integrally formed with display screen 1 and base 5 respectively.In the present embodiment, the first support external member and second supports external member and is respectively two, and gear mechanism is also two, and this quantity is not limited to this, also can adopt a plurality of support external members, or adopts a gear engagement mechanism to realize the present invention.
The present embodiment is exactly by the application of pivot structure and gear structure, the torsion that utilizes rotating shaft to produce carrys out support screen, utilize gear structure to control the rotary motion trace of screen, the stable free-open-close of 0 °～360 ° of successfully realizing note-book computer display screen, combines the function of traditional notebook computer and panel computer.While can rely on the centre distance of adjusting rotating shaft to overcome the thickness of notebook self.It is compared with traditional notebook computer, more flexible in its use-pattern, rotates more steadily, and especially it has the function of panel computer simultaneously, makes it in the situation that not having desk to support, and still can be convenient to use.
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, describe the second embodiment of the present invention in detail.
Fig. 9 is the schematic diagram of rotating shaft part of the pivot structure of second embodiment of the invention.As can be seen from the figure, fixture 5-1 and fixture 5-2 link together by rotating shaft 5-6 and rotating shaft 5-7 and support member 5-3 (be equivalent to be consolidated first support external member and second support external member); Fixture 5-1 and fixture 5-2 are fixed on display screen.Due to the existence of support member 5-3,5-6 and rotating shaft 5-7 do the rotation of 0 ° to 180 ° around the shaft can to make display screen.Similarly, fixture 5-4 and fixture 5-5 link together by rotating shaft 5-8 and rotating shaft 5-9 and support member 5-3; Fixture 5-4 and fixture 5-5 are fixed on base.Due to the existence of support member 5-3,5-8 and rotating shaft 5-9 do the rotation of 180 ° to 360 ° around the shaft can to make display screen.In this process support member 5-3 also around the shaft 5-8 and rotating shaft 5-9 done the rotation of 90 ° to 270 °, thereby realized the rotation of 0 ° to 360 ° of notebook computer.
With reference to Figure 10, the wire rod 7 of walking out from the display screen of notebook computer is walked around the base 5 that support member 5-3 directly enters notebook.Wire rod box 4 is for the protection of wire rod (being shown in Figure 11).Rotating mechanism in Figure 11 is provided with two position-limit mechanisms 3, when remembering this use as conventional pen, adopts this position-limit mechanism 3 to lock, just 5-6 and the rotating shaft 5-7 rotation in doing 180 ° around the shaft of the display screen of notebook computer like this.When needs are realized the rotation of wide-angle more or tablet function, releasable catch, now can realize 360 ° of rotations of whole screen.Shown in Figure 12, adopt the second embodiment of the present invention not with the closure state schematic diagram of the notebook computer of position-limit mechanism.
Rotating shaft 5-6 in the present embodiment, 5-7,5-8 and 5-9 pass through respectively fixture 5-1,5-2,5-3 and 5-4 are fixed on display screen and base, and above-mentioned rotating shaft also can be integrally formed respectively with display screen and the base of notebook computer.
Although only adopted two groups of rotating mechanisms to realize the present invention in embodiments of the invention, the present invention is not limited thereto, also can adopt many group rotating mechanisms, it realizes principle is the same.Simultaneously embodiments of the invention are to take the description that notebook carries out as example, but mechanism of the present invention is applicable to any suitable display screen that has, rotate the electronic equipment requiring, mobile phone for example, digital camera, personal digital assistant, MP4 etc.
