The present invention relates to a double-shaft synchronous transmission device; in particular, a combination of a spur gear structure and a crown gear structure for pivot application, transmitting power in an operation-cooperating operation, so that the first and second shafts are synchronously rotated. New type.

The utility model is equipped with a pivot or a rotating shaft which can be reciprocally rotated by an external force, and is mounted on an electronic object, such as a mobile phone, a notebook computer, a PDA, an e-book, etc., so that the cover or the display screen can be rotated to have an opening and closing function. The department has been a skilled skill. For example, Taiwan Patent No. 97222022 "Rotary Shaft Structure", No. 98207366 "Pivot Structure" and the like provide a typical embodiment.

In order to provide more operating modes and application ranges for display modules (eg, screens) and/or body modules of electronic objects, the prior art has also disclosed a method between a display module and a body module. The double shaft is arranged to enable the display module and/or the body module to generate different operating modes or rotation angles. For example, Taiwan No. 99211350 "Double Pivot Hub", US 7512426 B2 "MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS DEVICE WITH SYNCHRONISING HINGE" patent case, etc., provide a possible embodiment.

One of the problems in the operation, movement and structural design of such double-rotor or pivot assemblies is that the old method discloses a technique that uses multiple (beveled) bevel gears or bevel gears to transmit power and synchronize the rotation of the two shafts. structure. However, as is known to those skilled in the art, with bevel gear transmission, the bevel gear must have sufficient Cone Distance or Face Distance to allow their meshing drive to not slip. Situation; therefore, the above embodiment provides a plurality of bevel gear transmission structures on the double shaft, and the spacing of the double shafts cannot be reduced as much as possible, which reflects that the entire transmission or structure needs to occupy a large space or volume. In particular, the transmission device is applied to a notebook computer or a small electronic device, and cannot meet the requirements of a lightweight and thin design; this situation is not what we would expect.

Typically, these references show the use and structural design of the dual hinges or pivots and their associated bonded components. If the redesign considers the structure of the shaft and related components, as well as the above application, making it different from the conventional one, it will change its use type and increase its application range, which is different from the old method. For example, considering the design of the rotating shaft or its associated combination component under the condition of simple structural design and easy operation, the spacing of the double rotating shafts can be reduced as much as possible to reduce the space or volume of the entire transmission or structure. And their meshing drive does not produce the effect of sliding or power transmission delay; and, in line with the light and thin design requirements of electronic objects.
