US 11,387,055 B2 · Control device capable of providing rotational damping through magnetic force

Abstract

A control device capable of providing rotational damping through a magnetic force is provided directly at the base of an electronic product and includes a supporting member, an adjusting member, and two magnetic members. The supporting member is provided at the base. The adjusting member is rotatably provided on the supporting member. The adjusting member has a bottom portion corresponding to a switch pre-installed in the base. The adjusting member further has a head portion outside the base. The two magnetic members are provided on the supporting member and the adjusting member respectively. The two magnetic members generate a magnetic force therebetween and thereby change the rotational damping between the supporting member and the adjusting member.
