Problems solved by technology

However, when the user performs the heartbeat detection function through the input device 10, the sensing module 13 needs to be continuously pressed, which easily causes the user's hand fatigue and discomfort and a foreign body sensation, and dirt or hand sweat remains on the surface of the sensing module 13 And there are doubts about affecting the sensing results
[0004] In addition, since the sensing module 13 on the input device 10 is fixed in a position and cannot be adjusted, users of different genders or ages may have inaccurate grip positions, resulting in poor sensing effect and low reliability. result
[0005] In order to improve the versatility of the input device with sensing function, the sensing area can be enlarged within the range of the sensing position, but this will increase the cost of the input device

[0023] Please refer to Figure 2A and Figure 2B As shown, the input device 20 with a physiological signal sensing module in this embodiment includes a housing 21 , a circuit board 22 , a sensing module 23 and a light guide element 24 . In this embodiment, the housing 21 has a light-transmitting grip portion 211, the sensing module 23 is disposed on the circuit board 22 and electrically connected to the circuit board 22, and the circuit board 22 is disposed in the housing 21. In addition, the light guide element 24 is disposed between the sensing module 23 and the transparent handle 211 . Herein, the corresponding arrangement of the sensing module 23 and the light-transmitting grip portion 211 is used as an example for illustration, but it is not intended to limit the present invention.

[0024] The sensing module 23 of this embodiment has at least one light emitting element 231 and one sensing element 232 . Wherein, the light emitting element 231 may be a light emitting di...

[0032] Please refer to Figure 5A and Figure 5B As shown, another preferred embodiment of the input device with a physiological signal sensing module of the present invention is illustrated, wherein Figure 5B yes Figure 5A A schematic diagram of the path of light L emitted by the light emitting element 231 in FIG. The input device 20a of this embodiment includes a casing 21, a circuit board 22, a sensing module 23 and a light guide element 24a. The light guide element 24 a is disposed between the sensing module 23 and the light-transmitting grip portion 211 . The position of the sensing module 23 can be adjusted according to actual needs or according to the layout of the circuit board 22 . Therefore, it is taken as an example that the sensing module 23 is disposed on one side of the light guide element 24a, but the corresponding arrangement relationship between the sensing module 23 and the light-transmitting grip portion 211 is not limited. Since the casing 21 , the c...

[0039] Referring to FIG. 6A and FIG. 6B , the input device 20c according to the third embodiment of the present invention includes a casing 21 , a circuit board 22 , a sensing module 23 and a light guide element 24c. The light guide element 24c is disposed between the sensing module 23 and the light-transmitting holding portion 211 . Since the casing 21 , the circuit board 22 and the sensing module 23 have been described in detail in the above-mentioned embodiments, they will not be repeated here.

[0040] The difference between the light guide element 24b of this embodiment and the light guide elements 24 and 24a described in the previous embodiment is that the light guide element 24c is described by taking a plurality of optical fibers as an example. The use of optical fibers can improve the transmission efficiency of optical signals between the sensing module 23 and the light-transmitting holding portion 211 . One end of the optical fiber is connected to the sensing module...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an input device, in particular to an input device with a physiological signal sensing module. Background technique [0002] With the advancement of technology, computers have become an indispensable necessity in today's daily life. Take medical behavior as an example. In the past, patients who needed to continuously monitor their physiological signals could only be measured by the equipment of the medical unit and the results were displayed on the screen. When the physiological signals were abnormal, professional medical personnel would observe the values ​​on the monitor and evaluate Take appropriate medical action. Such a cost of manpower and money is quite high, and patients in remote areas cannot be taken into account. Therefore, modern medical services have moved from bedside diagnosis and treatment to home care, such as but not limited to blood pressure machines, ear thermometers, and blood glucose machines. The coopera...
