Embodiment

One preferred embodiment of rotary sliding assembly of the present invention, details are as follows.

Figure 1 shows that the exploded perspective schematic representation of hand-held shifter with embodiment of the invention swivel assembly.According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, this swivel assembly is to use in a hinge-lid type hand-held shifter 100.Wherein as shown in the figure, this hand-held shifter 100 includes a loam cake 102, a pedestal 104 and a swivel assembly 106.And a display device (not demonstrating among the figure) is to be assembled within this loam cake 102.Wherein the first end 108a of first couplings 108 of loam cake 102 is connected in second couplings 110 on the pedestal 104 by swivel assembly 106.The second end 108b of first couplings 108 then is the 3rd couplings 112 that connects on the pedestal 104.According to the present invention, the 3rd couplings 112 on the pedestal 104 has a movable trip, can turn round the second end 108b that discharges first couplings 108 by pushing a control, and make loam cake 102 only be connected by swivel assembly 106 with pedestal 104.

In a preferred embodiment, this swivel assembly 106 includes two shafts, is respectively first shaft 105, can allow loam cake rotate to 180 degree around X-axis by 0 degree, and second shaft 107 then can allow loam cake rotate to 180 degree around Y-axis 0 degree.First shaft 105 wherein for example can the interference fit mode, is fixed among the first end 108a of first couplings 108.And second shaft 107 for example can use screw 114 locking modes, is fixed in second couplings 110.And when group was found hand-held shifter 100, first shaft 105 can couple with second shaft 107, and makes loam cake 102 be connected on the pedestal 104.

Figure 2 shows that the swivel assembly exploded perspective view of preferred embodiment according to the present invention.As shown in the figure, this swivel assembly 106 comprises first shaft 105 and second shaft 107.Wherein second shaft 107 comprises a shaft body 1071, a pedestal 1072, a fixed plate 1073 and a stationary axle 1074.Wherein stationary axle 1074 passes the hole of fixed plate 1073 centres, and shaft body 1071 is fixed on the pedestal 1072.And in present embodiment, have two

fixed hole

1072a and 1072b on the pedestal 1072, and provide spiral shell 114 that pedestal 1072 is locked in and (be showed among the 1st figure) in second couplings 110, make that when shaft body 1071 rotated, pedestal 1072 can not rotate thereupon.First shaft 105 then comprises a rotatingshaft 1051 and a stationary axle 1052.This stationary axle 1052 can be fixed on the shaft body 1071, for example can on shaft body 1071, form an attachment hole (not showing among the figure), this stationary axle 1052 is fixed in this attachment hole, and make rotatingshaft 1051 to rotate around this stationary axle 1052, and can not influence second shaft 107.

Consult the schematic perspective view after Figure 3 shows that swivel assembly group of the present invention is upright and finishing.First shaft 105 is coupled to second shaft 107 by stationary axle 1052.Wherein, the rotatingshaft 1051 of first shaft 105 is fixed among the first end 108a of first couplings 108 shown in Figure 1, second shaft 107 then is locked in second couplings 110 by pedestal 1072, by coupling of first shaft 105 and second shaft 107, and make loam cake 102 be connected with pedestal 104.

Consult Fig. 4 a to Fig. 4 d and be depicted as the schematic perspective view that utilizes swivel assembly of the present invention to rotate a hand-held hand-held shifter, please contrast simultaneously and consult shown in Fig. 5 a to Fig. 5 d, be the swivel assembly operation chart of correspondence.In Fig. 4 a, a clamshell handset is in holding state, and this moment, loam cake 102 was closed on pedestal 104, and its corresponding swivel assembly 106 states are shown in Fig. 5 a.When a user followed 120 directions of arrow shown in Fig. 4 b to open loam cake 102, first shaft 105 of swivel assembly 106 can be docile and obedient clockwise around X-axis Rotate 180 degree, to open loam cake 102 shown in Fig. 5 b.Then in Fig. 4 c, the user pushes a control and turns round, the second end 108b of the couplings 108 of winning is separated with the 3rd couplings 112, and follow arrow 121 directions to rotate loam cake, second shaft 107 of the swivel assembly 106 that this moment is corresponding, promptly be docile and obedient clockwise and rotate to position shown in Fig. 5 d, rotate to the position shown in Fig. 4 d to drive loam cake 102 around Y-axis from position shown in Fig. 5 c.

Shown in Fig. 4 d, the display device 1021 that is embedded on these loam cake 102 internal surfaces is parallel to each other arranged side by side with the keyboard 1041 on the pedestal 104.In other words, display device 1021 is similar to former handset mode with the relative position relation of keyboard 1041, therefore, for the user, can't cause the puzzlement in the use.

In sum, swivel assembly of the present invention can be provided in neither to rotate the adjustment display device on the coaxial direction, not only can cooperate institute's ornamental film to adjust direction of display, and after rotation was adjusted, the display device of its upper interior surface and the keyboard relative position on the pedestal were still state arranged side by side parallel to each other, and be similar to former handset mode, therefore, for the user, can't cause the puzzlement in the use.

Though the present invention discloses as above with a preferred embodiment; yet it is not in order to limit the present invention; any person skilled in the art person without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention; when the change that can do various equivalences and retouching, so protection scope of the present invention is when looking accompanying being as the criterion that the application's claim scope defined.
