specific Embodiment 1

[0086] In the touch device capable of providing tactile feeling according to the first embodiment of the present invention, after the user touches successfully, the pump is used to extract the filler from the storage cavity and transport it to the elastic transparent cavity, so as to increase the height of the elastic transparent cavity and provide the user with a real tactile experience .

[0087] In the specific embodiment 1 of the present invention, the touch device capable of providing tactile sensation is such as figure 1 shown, including:

[0088] A touch screen (not shown in the figure) provided with at least one touch point is used to detect a user's touch operation, and obtain a detection result. When the detection result indicates that the user's touch operation is successful, the detection result includes all the touch points. Among the touch points, the first touch point touched by the user;

[0089] Of course, the touch detection can be a relatively large touch ...

specific Embodiment 2

[0124] In the specific embodiment of the present invention, a micro-pump needs to be provided corresponding to each elastic transparent cavity, and in the specific embodiment of the present invention, only one micro-pump is provided.

[0125] In the second specific embodiment of the present invention, the touch device capable of providing tactile sensation, such as Figure 4 shown, including:

[0126] A touch screen (not shown in the figure) provided with at least one touch point is used to detect a user's touch operation, and obtain a detection result. When the detection result indicates that the user's touch operation is successful, the detection result includes all the touch points. Among the touch points, the first touch point touched by the user;

[0127] Of course, the touch detection can be a relatively large touch screen, or a small touch screen that can only be set with one button;

[0128] The elastic transparent cavity corresponding to the touch point is arranged ...

specific Embodiment 3

[0163] In the above two embodiments, the shape change of the elastic cavity from the first height to the second height, which is generated after the user touches, is used as an example for description. In the following embodiments, the height of the elastic cavity decreases. Such a change in shape will be described as an example.

[0164] In the third specific embodiment of the present invention, the touch device capable of providing tactile sensation, such as Figure 5 shown, including:

[0165] A touch screen (not shown in the figure) including at least one touch point, for the user to realize touch operation;

[0166] Of course, the touch detection can be a relatively large touch screen, or a small touch screen that can only be set with one button;

[0167] An elastic transparent cavity arranged above the touch screen;

[0168] storage chambers for the storage of fillings in gaseous or liquid form;

[0169] the third micropump in the activated state;

[0170] the hollo...

Abstract

The invention provides a touch apparatus and a working method thereof. The touch apparatus comprises a touch screen, at least one elastic chamber, a filling driving device and a control module, wherein the touch screen comprises at least one touch point; the at least one elastic chamber is arranged above the touch screen and has a first height in the initial state; the filling driving device is connected with the first elastic chamber in the at least one elastic chamber, and the first elastic chamber corresponds to the first touch point in the at least one touch point of the touch screen; andthe control module is respectively connected with the touch screen and the filling driving device and is used for controlling the filling driving device to acquire a filler when the touch screen detects that the first touch point is touched, and conveying the filler to the first elastic chamber to enable the first elastic chamber to have a second height higher than the first height. The inventionenables the touch apparatus to provide the touch feeling for users.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of electronic input and output, in particular to a touch device and a working method thereof, which can provide users with tactile sensations. Background technique [0002] With the continuous advancement of technology, more and more electronic devices now use touch control, such as automatic teller machines ATM (Automated Teller Machine), mobile phones, personal digital assistants PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) and inquiry machines. [0003] Existing touch control methods are generally implemented through a touch screen. However, none of the existing touch screens can realize user tactile feedback, which greatly limits its application. [0004] In order to solve the above shortcomings, the industry provides various solutions, which are described as follows. [0005] Solution 1: Add a pump below the touch screen, and use the pump to vibrate the entire screen to provide haptic feedback; [0006] The secon...
