Problems solved by technology

[0002] In the prior art, in some mobile devices, especially for mobile devices that support touch input, there are usually very few mechanical keys, and each key has to undertake multiple functions, resulting in excessive use of these keys. Frequently, such as the power button, some electronic devices need to press the power button to wake up the screen in standby mode, and to unlock the screen in the locked state, press the power button first to slide to unlock
Because these buttons are used too frequently, the buttons of many mobile devices will be damaged in advance during the normal use cycle of the product, which will bring unnecessary troubles to users

Embodiment 1

[0022] An embodiment of the present invention provides an electronic device 1, such as figure 1 shown, including:

[0023] The motion generation unit 11 is configured to generate a mechanical motion when the electronic device shakes, and generate a trigger signal according to the mechanical motion.

[0024] The instruction generation unit 12 is configured to generate an operation instruction corresponding to the trigger signal after receiving the trigger signal.

[0025] The instruction execution unit 13 is configured to execute corresponding operations according to the operation instructions.

[0026] Wherein, the instruction execution unit is specifically configured to switch the electronic device from the first working state to the second working state according to the operation instruction, and the first working state and the second working state are different. And the first working state has the first power consumption, the second working state has the second power cons...

Embodiment 2

[0050] An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for controlling an electronic device, such as Figure 4 shown, including:

[0051] S101. Generate a trigger signal according to the mechanical motion generated by the motion switch unit when the electronic device shakes.

[0052] S102. Generate an operation instruction corresponding to the trigger signal according to the trigger signal.

[0053] S103. Execute a corresponding operation according to the operation instruction.

[0054] Embodiments of the present invention provide a method for controlling an electronic device. By using a motion switch to generate an operation instruction to replace a button, the frequency of use of the button of the electronic device is reduced, thereby prolonging the service life of the button of the electronic device.

Embodiment 3

[0056] The embodiment of the present invention also provides another electronic device control method, this method is the detailed solution of the previous embodiment, such as Figure 5 shown, including:

[0057] S201. When the electronic device shakes, receive a motion signal generated by contacting a fixed part and a movable part of a motion switch unit inside the electronic device to connect a circuit.

[0058] Exemplarily, it is assumed that the built-in motion switch unit of the user's electronic device is a spring type motion switch. When the user shakes the electronic device, the conductive spring in the spring type motion switch will vibrate. The spring will touch the metal cap, so that the circuit is connected, so that the spring type motion switch and the filter unit form a loop, so that the filter unit can receive the circuit and generate a motion signal. Of course, the motion switch unit can also use other motion switches.

[0059] S202. When the on-time of the m...

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides electronic equipment and a control method of the electronic equipment, relates to the field of mobile equipment, can prolong the service lives of keystrokes of the electronic equipment, does not need to monitor the movement condition of the electronic equipment in real time, and reduces the power consumption. The electronic equipment comprises a movement generation unit, an instruction generation unit and an instruction execution unit, wherein the movement generation unit is used for generating mechanical movement in shaking of the electronic equipment, and generating a trigger signal according to the mechanical movement, the instruction generation unit is used for generating an operating instruction corresponding to the trigger signal after receiving the trigger signal, and the instruction execution unit is used for executing the corresponding operation according to the operating instruction. The embodiment of the invention is used for replacing or assisting keystrokes of the electronic equipment with a movement switch.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of mobile devices, in particular to an electronic device and a control method for the electronic device. Background technique [0002] In the prior art, in some mobile devices, especially for mobile devices that support touch input, there are usually very few mechanical keys, and each key has to undertake multiple functions, resulting in excessive use of these keys. Frequently, such as the power button, some electronic devices need to press the power button to wake up the screen when they are in standby, and to unlock the screen in the locked state, press the power button first to slide to unlock. Because these buttons are used too frequently, the buttons of many mobile devices will be damaged in advance during the normal service period of the product, which will bring unnecessary troubles to users.
