Two second positioning members (not shown) for identifying reverse signals by the direction sensors 156 are provided at both ends of the multi-picture display canvas 141; the reverse signals are recognized and transmitted to the microcontroller 151 by the direction sensors 156, and the microcontroller 151 controls the motor 152 to rotate in a reverse direction according to the reverse signals.
The multi-picture display canvas 141 is provided with a plurality of display pictures which are located between the transmitting end and the receiving end of the position sensor 155, and the output end of the position sensor 155 is connected to the input end of the microcontroller 151. After the positioning signal is obtained by the location sensor 155, it is sent to the microcontroller 151, the microcontroller 151 controls the motor 152 to stop according to the positioning signal, and starts a next timing cycle. Through repeating such procedures, when a last display picture is represented, the reverse signal is detected by the direction sensors 156 and sent to the microcontroller 151, then the microcontroller 151 reverses the output current of the motor 152 and return the reversed output current to the motor 152, so that the motor 152 operates in reverse, and the multi-picture display canvas 141 moves in reverse.
Specifically, the position sensor 155 is an optical sensor, a Hall sensor, a magnetic sensor or a micro switch, and the positioning recognizer is an optical sensor or a magnet sensor. Holes or a blank are between adjacent pictures on the display canvas, and the positioning recognizer is arranged between holes or a magnet on the blank. When holes or the magnet on the blank passes through the position sensor 155 in the middle of a display window, the position sensor 155 obtains the positioning signal and sends it to the microcontroller 151, then the microcontroller 151 controls the motor 152 to stop or operate in a reverse the direction according to the positioning signal.
There are two direction sensors 156 disposed left and right, one is responsible for turning in a left direction and the other for turning in a right direction. The direction sensors 156 are disposed on one side or both sides of the canvas. The microcontroller 151 may be composed of a liquid crystal display control panel and an integrated circuit. The rotation of the display canvas and lighting display are timing controlled in a plurality of time periods, and the timing is set by the floating setting. The timing countdown time and the clock time are displayed on the liquid crystal control panel, and the timed time is started by using a clock as a starting reference.
In the embodiment of the present application, it should be noted that, the display unit further comprises a timing module which is connected to the microcontroller 151 and is configured to control periodical start of the motor 152 to periodically change the display picture on the multi-picture display canvas 141; when the home environment is changed according to the user requirements, upon a cycle change time preset by the timing module is reached, the motor 152 receives the picture change instruction issued by the microcontroller 151 and controls the rotation of the rotating shaft to drive the multi-picture display canvas 141 to move, thereby changing the display picture on the multi-picture display canvas 141.
Wherein, the timed time setting method of the timing module comprises two methods, i.e, a floating time input method and a fixed time input method. The floating time input method is performed to edit time by pressing a button according to requirements, and then storing the set time in the microcontroller 151. The set time can be set as a unit of time in hours, minutes, and seconds, and each set time is one period of time. A plurality of set time may be combined into a cycle, such as: the first period of time 2 hours, the second period of time of 5 hours, or the like, these periods of time together form a cycle. In the fixed time input method, there are multiple timing time represented by numbers. Any one time number may be freely input according to requirements. The timed time is repeated in a selected time period, or in combination of a plurality of time periods. The plurality of time periods are repeated, such as, 1, 2, 3, 12, 24 time periods, and so on. The plurality of time periods are set as a unit of time in hours or minutes. A desired time is clicked as a timed time, when selecting.
