Please refer to FIG. 3 and FIG. 7 to FIG. 9 to further illustrate the body part 4 of the carrying module 1000. The main body 4 is connected to the upright column 3000 and has a central convex portion 41, a peripheral ring portion 42, an arc-shaped track 43, a sliding groove 44 and two stop ends 45. The central convex portion 41 protrudes relative to the peripheral ring portion 42, passes through the first friction member 2 and the inner ring body 11, and is located in the central through hole 14. The arc-shaped track 43, the sliding groove 44 and the stop end 45 are formed between the circumferential ring portion 42 and the central convex portion 41. The central convex portion 41 has an annular side edge 411 connected to the peripheral ring portion 42, and the inner edge of the first friction member 2 is adjacent to the annular side edge 411. The circumferential ring portion 42 is used for contacting the first friction member 2, and the circumferential ring portion 42 and the first bearing surface 111 clamp the first friction member 2 together.

In detail, the peripheral ring portion 42 has an outer edge 421 and three protrusions 422, and the outer edge 421 is in contact with the column 211 and the solid segment 22 of the first friction member 2. The protrusion 422 is formed on the outer edge 421 and protrudes from the arc-shaped track 43 radially toward the axis C from the outer edge 421 to contact and interfere with the column 211. The bump 422 has two convex portions 4221 and a concave portion 4222 therebetween. The arc-shaped track 43 is provided for the post 211 to pass through and serves as a movable path for the post 211. The arc-shaped track 43 has a first width W1 on the convex portion 4221 and a second width W2 on the concave portion 4222. A width W1 is smaller than the second width W2. The column 211 has a farthest distance L from the axis C under normal conditions (as shown in FIG. 6). At the position where the arc track 43 has the first width W1, the outer edge 421 and the axis The distance C will be less than the farthest distance L, and when the arc-shaped track 43 has the second width W2, the distance between the outer edge 421 and the axis C will be approximately equal to the farthest distance L. Therefore, when the column 211 moves along the arc-shaped rail 43 and passes through the convex portion 4221, it will interfere with the convex block 422 due to the reduced width of the arc-shaped rail 43. When the column 211 is located in the concave portion 4222, it can fit into Place in the recess 4222. In this embodiment, three bumps 422 are taken as an example for illustration, and they are arranged at 90-degree central angle intervals. However, in other embodiments, the number of the bumps 422 is not limited to this. The sliding groove 44 communicates with the arc-shaped track 43 and partially overlaps, and the sliding groove 44 is used for accommodating the stop block 13 for the stop block 13 to move therein, and the stop ends 45 are respectively formed at both ends of the sliding groove 44 , The stop end 45 is used to contact and abut the stop block 13.

Referring to FIG. 3, the front plate 5 is in contact with the second friction member 3 and is fixed to the central protrusion 41 to clamp the carrier plate 1, the first friction member 2, and the second friction member 3 together with the body member 4. The screw 6 penetrates the front plate 5 and is fastened to the central protrusion 41 of the main body 4 through the central through hole 14 to fix the front plate 5 to the main body 4.

As shown in FIG. 3, FIG. 10 and FIG. 11, the shell 7 has an outer shape corresponding to the carrying board 1, and is assembled with the carrying board 1, and rotates synchronously with the carrying board 1 and the display 2000. The body part 4 is accommodated between the shell part 7 and the carrying plate 1 and does not rotate synchronously with the carrying plate 1.

The following describes the action relationship of the components of the creative carrying module 1000. The column 211 extends in the arc-shaped rail 43. When the display rotates, the bearing plate 1 rotates relative to the main body part 4, and the column 211 of the first friction member 2 slides relative to the arc-shaped rail 43. FIGS. 10 to 11 show the display 2000 drives the bearing plate 1 to rotate 90 degrees clockwise. During this rotation, the cylinder 211 will interfere with the convex block 422. Specifically, when the cylinder 211 enters or moves away from the concave portion 4222 along the arc-shaped track 43, it will interfere with the convex portion 4221, and the cylinder 211 may interfere with the convex portion 4221. The elastic section 21 is deformed by being squeezed by the convex portion 4221, and the movement of the column 211 is slightly resisted. Therefore, when the user rotates the display 2000 and the column 211 enters the recess 4222 or exits the recess 4222, a clear hand feeling will be felt. In detail, when the cylinder 211 enters the recess 4222, it will produce a feeling of freezing and positioning, indicating that the display 2000 is positioned at a specific angle, and when the cylinder 211 exits the recess 4222, it has a correspondingly hindered hand feeling and requires a larger The force drives the display 2000 to rotate, so that the user can know that the display 2000 and the supporting board 1 are locked in position or in a rotatable state.

Please refer to FIG. 8 again. Since the protrusions 422 are arranged at 90-degree central angle intervals, when the display 2000 is in a horizontal swing (as shown in FIG. 10) or a straight swing (as shown in FIG. 11), the column 211 is located One of the recesses 4222 of the bump 422. When the column is located in the concave portion 4222, the protrusion 422 is exactly engaged with the column 211, so that the carrying module 1000 is in a fixed state. At this time, the display 2000 is positioned so as to be difficult to rotate relative to the upright column 3000.

In addition, when the carrying plate 1 rotates to a limit position relative to the main body 4, the stop block 13 will press against the stop end 45 and cannot continue to rotate, thereby limiting the rotation range of the display 2000. It should be noted that, in this embodiment, both ends of the concave portion 4222 of the convex block 422 on the left and right sides of the main body 4 are provided with convex portions 4221, so before the display 2000 rotates to the extreme position, the cylinder 211 will first engage In the recessed portion 4222, if the rotation exceeds a predetermined angle, the column 211 is moved in the recessed portion 4222 toward the lower sliding groove 44, and the stop block 13 will contact the stop end 45. In other words, before the display 2000 rotates to the limit position, it will be engaged in positioning first, and only when the position exceeds the position and continue to rotate, will it rotate to the limit position where the stop block 13 and the stop end 45 abut against each other.

In the foregoing embodiment, the body member 4 is a stationary member, and the carrier plate 1, the first friction member 2 and the second friction member 3 are movable members that rotate with the display 2000. Therefore, the column 211 of the first friction member 2 and the body member The relative sliding of the arc-shaped track 43 of 4 is actually the sliding of the arc-shaped track 43 on which the column 211 is relatively stationary. However, those with ordinary knowledge in the technical field can also make simple structural changes, which are not limited here.

In addition, the aforementioned three protrusions 422 are arranged at a central angle of 90 degrees, so that the display 2000 can give the user a feeling of touch at the three positions of 0 degree and plus or minus 90 degrees. However, it can actually be adjusted according to requirements. The location and number of the segment 21 and the physical segment 22 are also not limited.

In summary, the creative bearing module of the present invention is interfered by the column of the first bearing member when passing through the bumps of the circumferential ring part in the arc-shaped track, so as to produce the hand feeling of display positioning during the rotation process, and the display When the column is engaged with the concave part of the convex block during vertical or horizontal swing, when the display is rotated to position, the placement angle can be fixed and it is not easy to deflect.

The above-mentioned embodiments are only used to illustrate the implementation of this creation and explain the technical features of this creation, and are not used to limit the scope of protection of this creation. Any changes or equal arrangements that can be easily completed by those familiar with this technology belong to the scope of this creation, and the scope of protection of the rights of this creation shall be subject to the scope of the patent application.
