Panel board pointer structure of the present invention, during work, after in the pointer cap of the shading above the light that light-emitting component sends exports to via the pointer post, again by the light guide structure that arranges in the pointer cap with the light indentation, there that leads, transmit and project the surface of panel board by breach, form and the corresponding pointer shape of notch geometry pattern on the panel board surface, realize the indication of pointer.Because pointer post and pointer cap are rotatable, therefore by rotating pointer post and pointer cap, change the orientation of pointer cap breach, can change the position that projects the light on panel board surface from breach, realize the swing of pointer.
There is not entity pointer fork in panel board pointer structure of the present invention, thereby does not exist because of the entity pointer fork limited problem of range of application that restriction causes to moment of inertia; Do not exist simultaneously entity pointer pendulum to be somebody's turn to do, reduced to a certain extent cost yet.Described pointer structure, after light penetrates from breach, except transmit clearly pointer pattern on the panel board surface, it also is formed with continuous light shafts between panel board surface and breach, the pointer pattern on panel board surface, light shafts, and pointer post, pointer cap combine, and makes whole panel board pointer structure have very strong stereoscopic sensation.In addition, described panel board pointer structure, when the light color of light-emitting component emission changes, its color that shines the lip-deep light shafts of panel board and pattern from seeing through breach also can change thereupon, thereby, it can change the color of pointer by the color that the change light-emitting component emits beam, thereby satisfies the needs of different color pointer.By selecting light emitting diode (LED) light source etc. can launch the light-emitting component of multiple color light, can realize the colorful conversion that pointer shows, the rich color that pointer is shown is changeable.In addition, described panel board pointer structure, the shape of projection pointer are determined by the shape of breach, by changing the shape of breach, can change the pointer shape that projects the panel board surface, thereby change the style of pointer; It is simple, convenient that the style of its pointer changes.

Embodiment
Such as Fig. 1, Fig. 2, a kind of panel board pointer structure is provided with light-emitting component 1 in the panel board centre, and the light-emitting component top arranges rotating pointer post 2 and covers in the pointer cap 3 of pointer post top.The pointer post is made by optical material, and the light that light-emitting component can be sent exports to the pointer cap below, because pointer cap is light-shielding structure, the light that the pointer post is derived can be covered by pointer cap.The side of pointer cap is provided with the pointer shape breach 4 of light-permeable, and the pointer shape breach of described light-permeable can be poroid breach 4, also can be the pointer shape part made from the light transmissive material of pointer cap other parts one.The pointer post is provided with light guide structure being positioned at pointer cap bottom.Light guide structure can be the reflecting surface 5 of the inclination that is installed in pointer cap below, this reflecting surface is relative at an angle with the end face of pointer post, also the breach with the pointer cap side is relative at an angle simultaneously for reflecting surface, its light reflection that pointer post can be derived sees through the surface that breach projects panel board to indentation, there.
Light guide structure also is one section light-guiding pillar 6 that the optical material that is the shape that turns round is made, such as Fig. 3, the one end dock with the pointer post or with pointer post one, the other end leads to the indentation, there of pointer cap, it arranges reflecting surface in the corner.The light that the pointer post is derived enters into light guide structure from an end, after changing direction after the reflection of corner, be delivered to the other end after, penetrate from indentation, there, project the surface of panel board, realize the indication of pointer.
