Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of mobile terminal technology, specifically to a mobile terminal housing, a mobile terminal, a pressure touch method, and a storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] As mobile devices achieve increasingly higher screen-to-body ratios, the space available for side-mounted mechanical buttons is shrinking. Some mobile devices even extend their displays to the sides, necessitating the use of virtual pressure buttons instead of mechanical buttons. Users trigger actions by pressing these virtual pressure buttons. The principle behind these pressure buttons is to attach a sensor to the inner wall of the device's frame. When a user presses the button, the sensor detects the frame's deformation and converts it into an electrical signal to identify the user's action. However, frame deformation doesn't only occur when the user presses the frame. When the mobile device is subjected to torsion or other abnormal external forces, the frame can also deform. The mobile device may misinterpret these deformations as electrical signals, leading to false triggering of buttons. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the above problems, this application provides a mobile terminal housing, a mobile terminal, a pressure touch method, and a storage medium to avoid accidental triggering.

[0004] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a mobile terminal housing, including a cover, a side frame, a first pressure sensor, and a second pressure sensor. The side frame is disposed around the cover, the first pressure sensor is disposed on the side frame to sense pressure applied to the side frame, and the second pressure sensor is disposed on the cover to sense pressure applied to the cover.

[0005] Secondly, this application also provides a mobile terminal, including the aforementioned mobile terminal housing.

[0006] Thirdly, embodiments of this application provide a pressure touch method applied to the aforementioned mobile terminal. The method includes: acquiring a first pressure touch parameter via a first pressure sensor, acquiring a second pressure touch parameter via a second pressure sensor; detecting whether the current pressure touch operation is an abnormal operation based on the first pressure touch parameter and the second pressure touch parameter; and refusing to respond to the current pressure touch operation if the current pressure touch operation is an abnormal operation.

[0007] Fourthly, embodiments of this application provide an electronic device, which is provided with a first pressure sensor, a second pressure sensor, a memory, and one or more processors. The first and second pressure sensors are used to sense touch pressure, and the memory is used to store program instructions. The program instructions are executed by one or more processors to perform the pressure touch method described above.

[0008] The mobile terminal housing, mobile terminal, pressure touch method, and storage medium provided in this application embodiment are as follows: the mobile terminal housing senses the pressure applied to the side frame through a first pressure sensor and the pressure applied to the cover through a second pressure sensor. When the mobile terminal housing is applied to the mobile terminal, the mobile terminal can determine whether the received touch operation is an abnormal operation based on the pressure touch parameters received from the first pressure sensor and the second pressure sensor, so as to avoid responding when the mobile terminal housing is subjected to torsion or other abnormal touch external forces.

[0028] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for explaining the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.

[0029] The following detailed description of the mobile terminal housing, mobile terminal, pressure touch method, and storage medium provided in this application will be provided through specific embodiments.

[0030] Please see Figure 1This application provides a mobile terminal 100, which can be, but is not limited to, a mobile phone, tablet computer, game console, PDA, e-reader, handheld POS (Point of Sales) machine, or other electronic device. This application uses a mobile phone as an example for illustration.

[0031] Please see Figure 1 In this embodiment, the mobile terminal 100 includes a mobile terminal housing 110 and a display screen 170. The display screen 170 is a screen with a display function to display relevant interfaces or information of the mobile terminal 100 for the user to view or operate. It should be understood that in other embodiments, the mobile terminal 100 may not include a display screen.

[0032] Please refer to the following: Figure 2 and Figure 3 The mobile terminal housing 110 includes a side frame 111, a cover 112, a first pressure sensor 121, and a second pressure sensor 122. The first pressure sensor 121 is disposed on the side frame 111 to sense the pressure applied to the side frame 111, and the second pressure sensor 122 is disposed on the cover 112 to sense the pressure applied to the cover 112.

[0033] By setting a first pressure sensor 121 to sense the pressure applied to the side frame 111 and a second pressure sensor 122 to sense the pressure applied to the cover 112, the mobile terminal 100 can determine whether the received touch operation is a false trigger based on the pressure touch parameters received from the first pressure sensor 121 and the second pressure sensor 122. For example, assuming that the side frame 111 of the mobile terminal 100 is provided with a pressure-sensitive button, the pressure-sensitive button detects the user's button operation through the first pressure sensor 121 set on the side frame 111. If the user performs a normal button operation, that is, presses the side frame 111 normally, the side frame 111 deforms more and the cover 112 deforms less. Therefore, the pressure signal of the first pressure sensor 121 is significantly greater than the pressure signal of the second pressure sensor 122. If the user does not perform a normal button operation, but the side frame 111 deforms to a certain extent due to the user's posture or environment, the cover 112 will usually also deform significantly. Therefore, the pressure signal of the second pressure sensor 122 will be significantly greater than the pressure signal of the first pressure sensor 121, or the two will be similar. For example, if a user accidentally twists the mobile terminal, the deformation of the cover 112 is greater than the deformation of the side frame, and the pressure signal of the first pressure sensor 121 is significantly less than the pressure signal of the second pressure sensor 122.

[0034] Based on the above principles, preset conditions can be set to determine whether the currently received pressure is caused by a false touch, depending on whether the pressure signals from the first pressure sensor 121 and the second pressure sensor 122 meet these preset conditions. For example, a preset condition can be set such that when the pressure signal from the second pressure sensor 121 is greater than a certain threshold, the corresponding touch operation is considered a false touch. Alternatively, a preset condition can be set such that when the pressure signal from the first pressure sensor 121 is greater than a certain threshold and the pressure signal from the second pressure sensor 122 is less than another threshold, the corresponding touch operation is considered a normal button operation. This effectively distinguishes between normal and false operations, preventing the mobile terminal 100's functions from being accidentally triggered when the mobile terminal housing 110 is subjected to twisting or other abnormal external pressure forces.

[0035] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, the cover 112 is generally a rectangular plate structure. The cover 112 includes an outer surface 1122 and an inner surface 1121 facing away from each other. The outer surface 1122 refers to the exposed surface of the cover 112. The side frame 111 is arranged around the cover 112 and together with the cover 112 forms an accommodating space 1123, wherein the inner surface 1121 is located within the accommodating space 1123. In this embodiment, the cover 112 is a cuboid structure, including a long side 1124 and a short side 1125. The long side 1124 is arranged along the length direction of the cover 112, and the short side 1125 is arranged along the width direction of the cover 112. The long side 1124 and the short side 1125 are generally perpendicular, wherein the length of the long side 1124 is greater than the length of the short side 1125. In other embodiments, the cover 112 may also be an ellipse, a polygon, or other shapes. In some embodiments, the cover 112 may also be a cube structure, that is, the lengths of the two perpendicular sides are approximately equal.

[0036] Please see Figure 2 In this embodiment, the side frame 111 includes a first frame 1111, a second frame 1112, a third frame 1113, and a fourth frame 1114. The first frame 1111 and the third frame 1113 are arranged opposite to each other, and the second frame 1112 and the fourth frame 1114 are arranged opposite to each other. The second frame 1112 and the fourth frame 1114 are both connected between the first frame 1111 and the third frame 1113. The first frame 1111, the second frame 1112, the third frame 1113, and the fourth frame 1114 are connected end to end to form a rectangular frame structure. The length of the second frame 1112 is approximately the same as the length of the fourth frame 1114, and is greater than the length of the first frame and the third frame 1113.

[0037] In some embodiments, the connection between two connected frames may be chamfered. For example, the connection between the first frame 1111 and the second frame 1112 may be chamfered.

[0038] In this embodiment, the first pressure sensor 121 can be a MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical System) pressure sensor or a thin-film pressure sensor, and can be made of piezoelectric or piezoresistive materials.

[0039] In this embodiment, there are multiple first pressure sensors 121. The multiple first pressure sensors 121 can be disposed on the inner side of at least one of the first frame 1111, the second frame 1112, the third frame 1113 and the fourth frame 1114 or embedded in the frame.

[0040] In some embodiments, a plurality of first pressure sensors 121 are respectively provided on the inner surfaces of the first frame 1111 and the second frame 1112, or a plurality of first pressure sensors 121 are respectively provided on the first frame 1111, the second frame 1112, the third frame 1113 and the fourth frame 1114. The number and arrangement of the first pressure sensors 121 in each frame can be set according to actual needs.

[0041] Please see Figure 2 In this embodiment, multiple first pressure sensors 121 (121a, 121b, 121c) are disposed on the inner surfaces of the second frame 1112 and the fourth frame 1114. Each first pressure sensor 121 can be disposed at different positions within the frame. The first pressure sensors 121 at different positions can be used to sense pressure at different locations on the frame. Each first pressure sensor 121 can function as a "pressure button." By replacing traditional mechanical buttons with first pressure sensors 121, users can perform touch operations to enable the mobile terminal 100 to execute corresponding functions. For example, first pressure sensor 121a can serve as a "power button," and first pressure sensors 121b and 121c can serve as "volume buttons." No particular limitation is made here.

[0042] In this embodiment, there are multiple second pressure sensors 122. Multiple second pressure sensors 122 can be disposed on the mounting surface of the cover 112. The second pressure sensor 122 can be a MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical System) pressure sensor or a thin film pressure sensor, and can be made of piezoelectric material or piezoresistive material.

[0043] In this embodiment, the second pressure sensor 122 can be disposed on the inner surface 1121 of the cover 112 or embedded in the cover 112. When the cover 112 deforms, the second pressure sensor 122 will sense the pressure. The mobile terminal 100 can determine the deformation state of the cover 112 by acquiring the pressure touch parameters of the second pressure sensor 122. The deformation state can include the magnitude of the deformation of the cover 112, the position of the minimum deformation, the area of ​​the maximum deformation, the direction of the twist, etc.

[0044] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, multiple second pressure sensors 122 can be arranged linearly along at least two directions on the cover 112. Some of the second pressure sensors 122 are arranged linearly along a first direction X1, which is approximately parallel to the third frame 1113 (i.e., the short side 1125 of the cover 112). The second pressure sensors 122 arranged along the first direction X1 can be arranged in one or more straight lines. Other second pressure sensors 122 are arranged along a second direction Y1, which is approximately parallel to the second frame 1112 (i.e., the long side 1124 of the cover 112). The second pressure sensors 122 arranged along the second direction Y1 can also be arranged in one or more straight lines. Adjacent second pressure sensors 122 can be arranged at equal or unequal intervals; no particular limitation is made here.

[0045] By setting multiple second pressure sensors 122 on the cover 112, with some second pressure sensors 122 and others positioned along two mutually perpendicular first directions X1 and second direction Y1 respectively, when the cover 112 is twisted or bent along the first direction X1 and the second direction Y1, the multiple first pressure sensors 122 along the first direction X generate multiple first pressure signals, and the multiple first pressure sensors 121 along the second direction Y1 generate multiple second pressure signals. By acquiring the multiple first pressure signals and multiple second pressure signals, and combining them with the positions of each first pressure sensor on the cover, pressure distribution data at each position of the cover 112 can be obtained, thereby determining parameters such as the deformation and force center position of each position of the cover 112. When the cover 112 is twisted in different directions, the first pressure sensors 121 in the two directions can generate different pressure signals respectively, thus also determining the twisting direction of the cover 112.

[0046] The mobile terminal 100 can acquire multiple pressure signals and generate a pressure distribution curve. It then matches the generated pressure distribution curve with a stored preset pressure distribution curve library. If the curve matches one of the preset pressure distribution curves in the library, the terminal can determine the current twisting shape of the cover 112 and other related information based on the preset pressure curve. The preset pressure curve library can be composed of various twisting pressure curves formed when the cover 112 is twisted into different shapes through experiments or simulations before leaving the factory. Each preset pressure curve corresponds to a twisting shape of the cover 112.

[0047] In some implementations, such as Figure 4 As shown, the cover 112 has intersecting first diagonal D1 and second diagonal D2. The first diagonal D1 and the second diagonal D2 intersect to form an angle, the minimum of which is less than or equal to 90°. Some of the second pressure sensors 122 can be arranged along the cover 112 in a direction parallel to the first diagonal D1, and some of the second pressure sensors 122 can be arranged along the cover 112 in a direction parallel to the second diagonal D2. When the cover 112 is twisted, the deformation of the cover 112 along a certain diagonal direction usually follows a certain pattern, such as from large to small and then back to large, or from small to large and then back to small. The second pressure sensors 122 along the two diagonal directions respectively generate pressure signals that conform to the above pattern. Therefore, the distribution of pressure signals from the second pressure sensors 122 can accurately determine whether the cover is twisted and the direction of the twist.

[0048] In this embodiment, by setting the second pressure sensor 122 along the first diagonal D1 and the second diagonal D2, more pressure signals can be obtained and covered to the corners of the cover 112. When the cover 112 is twisted, a pressure distribution curve conforming to a preset rule is generated, thereby effectively determining whether the cover 112 is twisted, identifying the twisting direction, and improving the accuracy of accidental touch recognition.

[0049] In some implementations, such as Figure 5As shown, multiple second pressure sensors 122 are respectively arranged in an arc shape on the cover 112, and a first pressure sensor 121 is located within the circumference of the arc. The first pressure sensor 121 can be located at the center of the arc or at the midpoint of the chord of the arc. As an example, the first pressure sensor 121c is located within the circumference of the arc. When a user touches the area where the first pressure sensor 121c is located, the edge will undergo significant deformation at the point of contact, and the stress generated by the edge will be transmitted from the point of contact to the surrounding area. Since multiple second pressure sensors 122 are arranged around the first pressure sensor 121, and the first pressure sensor 121 is located within the circumference of the arc, the multiple first pressure sensors 121 on the arc will generate a certain pressure signal value. For example, when the first pressure sensor 121 is located at the center of the arc, since the distance between each second pressure sensor on the arc and the first pressure sensor is the same, if the user touches the location of the first pressure sensor, the signal values ​​of each second pressure sensor on the arc should be approximately the same and less than the signal value of the first pressure sensor. Therefore, based on the signals from the first pressure sensor and each of the second pressure sensors, it can be determined whether the user's touch position is at the location of the first pressure sensor, thereby identifying normal button operations and abnormal touches. Furthermore, this implementation can be combined with... Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 In the arrangement shown (that is, the second pressure sensor 122 can be distributed in arc and line), it can also be not combined (the second pressure sensor 122 can only be distributed in arc, and can be not distributed in line).

[0050] When the first pressure sensor 121 is not located at the center of the arc, or when the user touches the arc, the mobile terminal 100 can obtain multiple pressure signal values ​​and generate a pressure distribution curve, and then match the pressure distribution curve with a preset touch pressure curve. If they match, the current touch operation is determined to be a normal touch operation. The preset touch pressure curve can be a touch pressure curve generated before leaving the factory based on experiments or simulations of normal touch operation.

[0051] In this embodiment, by arranging the second pressure sensors 122 in an arc shape and placing the first pressure sensor 121 within the arc, when the user applies normal pressure, each of the second pressure sensors 122 on the arc can detect a pressure signal with little difference. When the user applies abnormal pressure, and the center of force is not within the arc, the pressure signals of each of the second pressure sensors 122 on the arc differ significantly. Therefore, the pressure signals of each second pressure sensor 122 can be used to determine whether the position of the pressure center coincides with the position of the first sensor 121, thereby accurately identifying normal and abnormal operations and reducing false triggering events.

[0052] In some implementations, such as Figure 6 As shown, the second pressure sensor 122 is disposed in the central region of the cover 112. Generally, the central region C1 of the cover 112 is usually a region more susceptible to stress. When the cover 112 deforms, the deformation of the central region C1 of the cover 112 is relatively large. Therefore, placing the second pressure sensor 122 in the central region C1 of the cover 112 allows the second pressure sensor 122 to sense a larger pressure. The number of second pressure sensors 122 can be one or more.

[0053] In some embodiments, there are multiple second pressure sensors 122. The distribution density of the second pressure sensors 122 changes from large to small along the direction from the central region to the edge region of the cover 112. Since the stress is more concentrated in the central region of the cover 112, by arranging the second pressure sensors 122 in the central region of the cover 112, the pressure distribution in the stress concentration area can be sensed more sensitively, thereby determining the center of force more accurately. At the same time, the second pressure sensors 122 located in the edge region can also sense the pressure at the edge of the cover 112.

[0054] In some implementations, structural simulation can be used to determine the area of ​​the cover 112 most susceptible to stress. For example, by using finite element analysis and placing the second pressure sensor 122 in this area, the pressure distribution in the stress concentration area can be sensed more sensitively.

[0055] In some embodiments, there are multiple second pressure sensors 122, and the multiple second pressure sensors 122 are evenly distributed on the cover 112. The cover 112 may be provided with multiple grids, and the multiple second pressure sensors 122 may be evenly distributed in each grid.

[0056] In some embodiments, there are multiple second pressure sensors 122, which are spaced apart from each other along the edge of the cover 112. The multiple second pressure sensors 122 can be arranged in a rectangular shape. Since the edge of the cover 112 is closer to the frame than the central area C1 of the cover 112, when the user touches the position corresponding to the frame, the deformation of the frame will apply at least part of the force to the edge of the cover 112. The second pressure sensor 122 located at the edge of the cover 112 can sense a large pressure. At the same time, by obtaining the pressure signal values ​​of the first pressure sensor 121 and the second pressure sensor 1222 at this position, it can be determined whether the current user operation is a normal touch. For example, when the user touches normally, both the first pressure sensor 121 and the second pressure sensor 122 will sense a large pressure. The mobile terminal 100 can determine whether the pressure signal values ​​of the first pressure sensor 121 and the second pressure sensor 122 are greater than a preset pressure value. If they are, the current operation is determined to be a normal touch, and the corresponding function is executed according to the received touch operation. In some embodiments, the second pressure sensor 122 may be arranged in a ring or rectangular array, or the second pressure sensor 122 may be arranged irregularly, or it may be set in one or more designated areas.

[0057] In some embodiments, the mobile terminal housing 110 also includes a capacitive sensor (not shown). The capacitive sensor can be disposed on the outer surface, and the number of capacitive sensors can be one, two, or more. Multiple capacitive sensors can be arranged in a rectangular or circular array, or irregularly. Furthermore, the capacitive sensor can be disposed in a designated area, such as an area where the user's normal grip might contact the cover 120. When the user holds the mobile terminal 100, it comes into contact with the capacitive sensor. At this time, the capacitive sensor generates a corresponding electrical signal. The mobile terminal 100 can determine whether the user is holding the mobile terminal 100 based on the received electrical signal, avoiding false triggering of touch operations when the mobile terminal is not held due to external force. Additionally, the capacitive sensor can also be disposed on the outer side of the frame. By setting the capacitive sensor, it is possible to detect whether the mobile terminal 100 is being held by the user, and to detect the position where the user is holding it. If the mobile terminal 100 is twisted or bent under external force when the user is not holding it, the mobile terminal 100 will receive a touch pressure operation. The current touch pressure operation can be determined by acquiring the detection signals of the capacitive sensor and the second pressure sensor 122. As an example, if the capacitance signal of the capacitive sensor does not change and the pressure value detected by the second pressure sensor 122 is greater than or equal to a preset value, it is determined whether the current touch pressure operation is triggered.

[0058] The mobile terminal housing 110 provided in this application embodiment uses a first pressure sensor 121 to sense the pressure applied to the side frame 111 and a second pressure sensor 122 to sense the pressure applied to the cover 112. The mobile terminal 100 can determine whether the received touch operation is a malfunction based on the pressure touch parameters received from the first pressure sensor 121 and the second pressure sensor 122. In this way, normal operation and malfunction can be effectively distinguished, and some functions of the mobile terminal can be erroneously triggered when the mobile terminal housing 110 is subjected to torsion or other abnormal touch pressure external force.

[0059] Please see Figure 7 This application also provides a pressure-sensitive touch method, which can be applied to the aforementioned mobile terminal 100. The following will focus on... Figure 7 The process described above will be explained in detail. Specifically, the pressure touch method may include the following steps:

[0060] Step S110: Obtain first pressure touch parameters via the first pressure sensor, and obtain second pressure touch parameters via the second pressure sensor.

[0061] The first pressure touch parameter refers to the electrical signal generated by the first pressure sensor sensing the deformation of the frame. The first pressure sensor will generate corresponding electrical signals when it senses different sizes of deformation. The electrical signal can be a current signal, a voltage signal, or a capacitance signal, etc. When the mobile terminal obtains the electrical signal generated by the first pressure sensor, it can determine the pressure value detected by the first pressure sensor based on the electrical signal. The intensity of each electrical signal can correspond to a certain pressure value.

[0062] The second pressure touch parameter refers to the electrical signal generated by the second pressure sensor due to the deformation of the cover to the frame. The second pressure sensor will generate a corresponding electrical signal when it senses different sizes of deformation. The electrical signal can be a current signal, voltage signal, or capacitance signal, etc. When the mobile terminal obtains the electrical signal generated by the second pressure sensor, it can determine the current pressure value based on the electrical signal. The intensity of each electrical signal can correspond to a certain pressure value.

[0063] In some implementations, when the mobile terminal is twisted or bent to a large extent, the frame and cover will undergo large deformation. When the first pressure sensor and the second pressure sensor sense the pressure, both will output a voltage signal whose magnitude is related to the pressure value. The greater the pressure sensed by the pressure sensor, the greater the voltage signal it generates. The mobile terminal can obtain the current first pressure touch parameters and second pressure touch parameters by acquiring the voltage signals of the first pressure sensor and the second pressure sensor.

[0064] By obtaining the first pressure touch parameters and the second pressure touch parameters, it is possible to determine whether the frame and cover have deformed and the magnitude of the deformation.

[0065] Step S120: Detect whether the current pressure touch operation is an abnormal operation based on the first pressure touch parameter and the second pressure touch parameter.

[0066] Abnormal operation refers to any operation other than the preset normal operations of the mobile terminal. For example, the preset normal operations of the mobile terminal include button operation and specific touch operation at a specific location. If the current pressure touch operation is neither a button operation nor a specific touch operation at a specific location, then the current pressure touch operation is determined to be an abnormal operation.

[0067] In some implementations, the mobile terminal can pre-store preset conditions corresponding to normal or abnormal touch pressure. The pressure signals from the first and second pressure sensors that are actually detected are compared with these preset conditions to determine whether the detected touch operation is abnormal. For example, the preset condition can be set such that when the pressure signal from the second pressure sensor is greater than a certain threshold, the corresponding touch operation is considered a malfunction. Alternatively, the preset condition can be set such that when the pressure signal from the first pressure sensor 121 is greater than a certain threshold and the pressure signal from the second pressure sensor 122 is less than another threshold, the corresponding touch operation is considered a normal button operation. This effectively distinguishes between normal and malfunctions, preventing the mobile terminal's functions from being accidentally triggered when the terminal casing is subjected to twisting or other abnormal external forces.

[0068] In a specific application scenario, such as Figure 8As shown, the two first pressure sensors are respectively located at position S1 on the second frame 1112 and position S2 on the fourth frame 1114 of the mobile terminal 100. When the user holds the mobile terminal near the bottom with their right hand and does not perform any operation, the right thumb is more likely to be above the screen, and the other four fingers are more likely to be in the middle of the mobile terminal's cover or near the edge of the cover near the fourth frame 1114. The user holds the mobile terminal with their thumb and the other four fingers. Since the thumb and the other four fingers need to use a certain amount of force to hold the mobile terminal and prevent it from falling, the mobile terminal is deformed by the pressure. When the positions of the first and second pressure sensors deform, The first and second pressure sensors sense the pressure and generate voltage signals of a certain magnitude. The mobile terminal determines whether the voltage signal sent by the first and second pressure sensors is greater than or equal to a first preset voltage signal, and whether the voltage signal of the second pressure sensor is greater than or equal to a second preset voltage signal, based on the received voltage signals. Combining the results of both determinations, the mobile terminal determines that the currently received pressure touch operation is an abnormal operation. Here, the order of determination is not limited. It is also possible to first determine whether the voltage signal of the second pressure sensor is greater than or equal to the second preset pressure value, and then determine whether the voltage signal of the first pressure sensor is greater than or equal to the first preset pressure value, or the determinations can be performed simultaneously.

[0069] In another specific application scenario, such as Figure 9 As shown, when a user is holding and operating the mobile terminal 100, the right thumb is more likely to be on the second frame 1112 of the mobile terminal 100, while the right index finger is more likely to be on the fourth frame 1114 of the mobile terminal 100, or on the edge of the cover of the mobile terminal 100 near the fourth frame 1114. The other three fingers are more likely to be on the fourth frame 1114 of the mobile terminal 100. When the user's right thumb presses down on position point S1, the fingers on the fourth frame 1114 of the mobile terminal 100 will also apply force simultaneously. At this time, position point S2 will undergo a significant deformation. When the pressure changes, the first pressure sensor located at position S2 will sense a large pressure. Since the user's palm is more likely to be bent away from the mobile terminal 100 and will not touch the cover, the cover will not deform or will deform only slightly. The second pressure sensor located on the cover will not sense any pressure or will sense only a small pressure value. When the pressure value detected by the second pressure sensor is less than the first preset value, and the pressure value detected by the first pressure sensor is greater than or equal to the second preset value, it can be determined that the current pressure touch operation is a normal touch.

[0070] In a specific application scenario, such as Figure 10 As shown, when the user holds the mobile terminal 100 at one of the diagonal corners, the other end of the mobile terminal 100 along the diagonal will droop due to gravity. Due to the uneven force on both ends of the mobile terminal 100, a certain amount of deformation will occur, causing the frame and cover to deform to a certain extent. The first pressure sensor and the second pressure sensor sense the pressure and generate an electrical signal of corresponding magnitude. If the pressure value detected by the second pressure sensor is greater than the first preset value, it indicates that the cover is currently under large deformation, and the mobile terminal 100 can determine that the currently received touch operation is an abnormal operation.

[0071] If the current pressure touch operation is an abnormal operation, then proceed to step S103: refuse to respond to the current pressure touch operation.

[0072] Among them, "rejection response" means that the mobile terminal does not execute the preset operation function. When the touch operation is an abnormal operation, the mobile terminal's control module does not send the preset function command to the corresponding function module, or the mobile terminal sends an invalid command to the preset function module.

[0073] In a specific application scenario, when a first pressure sensor is set in the first frame and used as a "screen off button", when the pressure value detected by the first pressure sensor is greater than or equal to a preset pressure value, if the current touch operation is detected as an abnormal operation, the control module of the mobile terminal will not send a command to the display screen to keep the display screen in its current state. Alternatively, the control module of the mobile terminal may send an invalid command, and the display screen will not respond when it receives the invalid command.

[0074] In some implementations, if the current pressure touch operation is not an abnormal operation, the mobile terminal executes the corresponding function according to the received touch operation. The control module of the mobile terminal sends an operation command to the corresponding function module, and the function module performs the corresponding operation when it receives the command.

[0075] The pressure touch method provided in this embodiment detects whether the current pressure touch operation is an abnormal operation by acquiring the first pressure touch parameter and the second pressure touch parameter. When the current pressure touch operation is detected to be an abnormal operation, the current pressure touch operation is refused to be responded to, which effectively avoids the touch operation being accidentally triggered when the mobile terminal is subjected to twisting or other abnormal external pressure force.

[0076] Please see Figure 11 Another embodiment of this application provides another pressure touch method, which can be applied to the above-mentioned electronic device. The process shown in the figure will be described in detail below. Specifically, the pressure touch method may include the following steps:

[0077] Step S210: Obtain first pressure touch parameters via the first pressure sensor, and obtain second pressure touch parameters via the second pressure sensor.

[0078] Step S2220: Determine the pressure signal distribution curve of the cover based on the second pressure touch parameter.

[0079] In some implementations, when there are multiple second pressure sensors, multiple second pressure touch parameters are acquired. A pressure signal distribution curve is generated based on these acquired second pressure touch parameters. For example, when a mobile terminal acquires multiple second pressure touch parameters, it can generate a corresponding pressure signal distribution curve based on these parameters. The mobile terminal can generate a pressure signal distribution curve based on all received second pressure touch parameters. In other implementations, a pressure signal distribution curve can also be generated based on a subset of the second pressure touch parameters. For example, the maximum, median, and minimum values ​​among the multiple second pressure touch parameters can be selected to generate a corresponding pressure signal distribution curve. The mobile terminal can generate a pressure signal distribution curve based on multiple second pressure touch parameters according to a predetermined generation rule.

[0080] Step S2230: Determine whether the pressure signal distribution curve matches the preset abnormal pressure signal distribution curve.

[0081] The abnormal pressure signal distribution curve can be generated by experiments or simulations before the mobile terminal leaves the factory, when the cover is twisted or bent into different shapes under abnormal touch pressure. Each abnormal pressure curve corresponds to a deformation shape of the cover, and each abnormal pressure curve corresponds to a state that may be accidentally triggered.

[0082] In some implementations, the matching degree between the pressure signal distribution curve and the preset abnormal pressure signal distribution curve can be determined by comparing the pressure signal distribution curve with the preset abnormal pressure signal distribution curve. For example, the matching degree can be determined by checking whether the contours of the two curves are the same. As an example, each value point of the pressure signal distribution curve can be compared with the corresponding standard value point of the preset abnormal pressure signal distribution curve. The difference between each value point and the corresponding standard point can be calculated. If the difference is within a preset difference range or equal to the preset difference, the two are considered to match. Alternatively, the average of multiple differences can be calculated, and the matching degree can be determined by checking whether the average value is within a preset average value range or equal to the preset average value.

[0083] In some implementations, the contours of two distribution curves can be matched. This matching method can first perform coarse matching and fine matching on the curves. Coarse matching can eliminate curves with large differences, which is conducive to the fine matching of the curves to complete the overall detection of the curves. During the matching process, the mean square error threshold of the ratio of their respective feature quantities can be used to determine whether the curves match. Finally, the curve matching detection can be completed by comparing with these mean square error thresholds. If the matching degree is within the preset matching value range, the two are judged to match.

[0084] In some implementations, matching can be determined using finite element analysis or the discretization method.

[0085] If the pressure signal distribution curve matches the preset abnormal pressure signal distribution curve, then execute step S240: refuse to respond to the current pressure touch operation.

[0086] The pressure touch control method provided in this embodiment determines whether the actual detected touch operation is an abnormal operation by matching the pressure distribution curve at various parts of the cover with the preset abnormal pressure signal distribution curve. This simplifies the judgment logic and effectively prevents the touch operation from being mistakenly triggered when the mobile terminal is subjected to torsion or other abnormal external force.

[0087] Please see Figure 12 Another embodiment of this application provides yet another pressure touch method, which can be applied to the aforementioned electronic device. The process shown in the figures will be described in detail below. Specifically, the pressure touch method may include the following steps:

[0088] Step S310: Obtain first pressure touch parameters via the first pressure sensor, and obtain second pressure touch parameters via the second pressure sensor.

[0089] Step S320: Determine the position where the cover is subjected to the greatest force based on the second pressure touch parameters.

[0090] In some implementations, when the mobile terminal is equipped with multiple second pressure sensors, the deformation at different locations on the cover varies when the mobile terminal is subjected to external force. This results in differences in the multiple second pressure touch parameters generated by the multiple second pressure sensors at different locations. The mobile terminal can determine the magnitude of the pressure at each location on the cover based on the second pressure touch parameters corresponding to each second pressure sensor, thereby identifying the location on the cover where the force is greatest.

[0091] The mobile terminal can determine the location source of each pressure touch parameter based on the identification mark of each second pressure sensor. Specifically, each second pressure sensor can be identified by a serial number, code, or physical address. In other words, each individual sensor has a unique identification mark, allowing the mobile terminal to distinguish the second pressure sensor corresponding to each location. Different identification marks correspond to different locations on the mobile terminal's casing. While acquiring the second pressure touch parameters, the mobile terminal can also obtain the location information of each pressure sensor; each pressure touch parameter corresponds to a specific location.

[0092] In some implementations, a location point on the cover can be set as the origin of the position coordinate system. For example, the center of the cover can be selected as the origin. The position of each second pressure sensor can be established based on this location point to create the coordinate position information of each second pressure sensor. Each second pressure sensor corresponds to a specific coordinate position. As an example, the center of the cover can be used as the origin, and its coordinate information can be marked as (0, 0). An XY coordinate system is established based on the origin. The coordinate position of the corresponding second pressure sensor is determined by determining the distance of each second pressure sensor from the origin in the X and Y directions. For example, where the second... The distance between the pressure sensor and the origin in the positive X-axis direction is e, and the distance between the pressure sensor and the origin in the positive Y-axis direction is f. The coordinate position information of the second pressure sensor can be determined and marked as (e, f). Each second pressure sensor corresponds to an identification identifier. The mapping relationship between the identification identifier of each second pressure sensor and its coordinate position can be preset and stored. Each identification identifier corresponds to a coordinate position information. When the mobile terminal obtains the identification identifier of each second pressure sensor, it determines the coordinate position information of the second pressure sensor through the identification identifier. By obtaining each coordinate position information, the deformation position point or position area of ​​the cover can be determined.

[0093] In a specific application scenario, the second pressure sensor a, the second pressure sensor b, and the third pressure sensor c are respectively located at position points 1, 2, and 3 on the cover. When the user holds the mobile terminal, the user's three fingers press on position points 1, 2, and 3 respectively. The mobile terminal can compare the pressure values ​​detected by the second pressure sensor a, the second pressure sensor b, and the third pressure sensor c to determine the location of the second pressure sensor with the largest pressure value. For example, when the pressure value detected by the second pressure sensor a is the largest, position point 1 is determined to be approximately the location of the largest deformation of the cover. The mobile terminal can obtain the coordinate position information of the second pressure sensor a based on its identifier.

[0094] Step S330: Determine the distance between the location where the cover is subjected to the greatest force and the location of the first pressure sensor.

[0095] The distance between the cover and the first pressure sensor is calculated based on the coordinates of the location where the cover experiences the greatest force. For example, the location of the first pressure sensor can be used as the coordinate reference point, and the distance between the cover and the first pressure sensor can be determined by obtaining the coordinates of the location where the cover experiences the greatest force. Alternatively, a coordinate reference point can be determined at any location on the cover, and the distance between the cover and the first sensor can be determined by calculating the distance between the cover and the coordinate reference point, and then using the distance between each of the two points and the coordinate reference point.

[0096] In a specific application scenario, for example, the location point 'a' where the cover experiences the greatest force is determined and the coordinate information of location point 'a' is obtained. The mobile terminal then determines the distance between location point 'a' and location point 'b' of the first pressure sensor based on the coordinate information of location point 'a'. For example, when location points 'a' and 'b' are both located on the same straight line along the length of the cover, the distance between them can be determined by calculating the distance difference between location points 'a' and 'b'. Alternatively, the distance difference between them can be determined by calculating the distances between location points 'a' and 'b' and the reference point, respectively.

[0097] In some implementations, the distance value between each first pressure sensor and each second pressure sensor can be preset and stored in a memory. A correspondence relationship is established between each first pressure sensor and each second pressure sensor. Each correspondence relationship can correspond to a distance (the distance value between two second sensors with a corresponding relationship). Each correspondence relationship and distance value can be preset and stored, and a mapping relationship between each correspondence relationship and the corresponding distance value can be established. The distance value between the two second pressure sensors can be determined by obtaining the correspondence relationship.

[0098] In some implementations, step 330 may further include the following steps:

[0099] Step S331: When there are multiple locations with the greatest force, determine the location of the force center based on the multiple locations with the greatest force.

[0100] When there are multiple locations experiencing the greatest force, the geometric region containing these multiple locations can be determined based on these locations. This geometric region can be the area enclosed by lines connecting the multiple locations, and the center of the geometric region can be determined based on this region. The midpoint of this geometric region can be identified as the center of force. The geometric region can be a line segment, arc, circle, rectangle, or other irregularly shaped area composed of multiple points.

[0101] In some implementations, when multiple location points are located on the same straight line, for example, when the location includes location point 1, location point 2 and location point 3, and location points 1, 2 and 3 are all on the same straight line, the mobile terminal obtains the location coordinate information of the three location points (1 to 3), and generates the corresponding geometric region according to the obtained coordinate information based on the preset generation rules. The geometric region formed by connecting the three location points (1 to 3) is a line segment, and the midpoint of the line is determined as the position of the force center.

[0102] In some implementations, when multiple location points are located on an arc or a circle, the resulting geometric region is an arc or a circle, and the center of the geometric region can be obtained by determining the center of the arc or the circle.

[0103] In some implementations, if multiple location points are arranged in an irregular shape, the location points with the densest arrangement can be selected, the approximate geometric area can be determined based on the location points within the densest arrangement area, and the specific force center location can be determined based on the specific shape of the geometric area.

[0104] Step S332: Determine the distance between the location of the force center and the location of the first pressure sensor.

[0105] The distance between the force center and the location of the first pressure sensor can be calculated based on the determined force center location. For example, the location of the first pressure sensor can be used as the coordinate reference point, and the distance between the force center and the coordinate reference point can be calculated. Alternatively, a coordinate reference point can be determined at any location on the cover plate, and the distance between the force center and the first sensor can be calculated by calculating the distance between the two points and the coordinate reference point, and then the distance between each point and the coordinate reference point can be used to calculate the distance between the force center and the first sensor.

[0106] Step S340: Determine whether the distance between the force center location and the location of the first pressure sensor is greater than or equal to a preset distance.

[0107] In some implementations, the preset distance can be a specific distance value or a range of distances. As an example, the preset distance can be a specific distance value. For example, when the preset distance is value 'a', the determined distance (the distance between the position where the cover is subjected to the greatest force and the position where the first pressure sensor is located) is value 'b'. If 'a' ≥ 0, then the distance is determined to be greater than or equal to the preset distance. As an example, when the preset distance is a range of distances, for example, when the preset distance is between values ​​'c' and 'd', if value 'b' is greater than or equal to value 'd', then the distance is determined to be greater than or equal to the preset distance.

[0108] If so, proceed to step S350: refuse to respond to the current pressure touch operation.

[0109] The pressure touch control method provided in this embodiment determines the center of force of multiple locations with the greatest force on the cover, and judges whether the actual detected touch operation is an abnormal operation based on the distance between the center of force and the first pressure sensor. This simplifies the judgment logic and effectively avoids the touch operation being mistakenly triggered when the mobile terminal is subjected to torsion or other abnormal external force.

[0110] Please see Figure 14 In another embodiment of this application, a further pressure touch method is provided, which can be applied to the above-mentioned electronic device. The second pressure sensor includes multiple sensors, which are arranged linearly along at least two directions on the cover. The process shown in the figure will be described in detail below. Specifically, the pressure touch method may include the following steps:

[0111] Step S410: Obtain first pressure touch parameters via the first pressure sensor, and obtain second pressure touch parameters via the second pressure sensor.

[0112] Step S420: Obtain the first direction parameter and the second direction parameter from the second pressure touch parameters.

[0113] The first directional parameter refers to the electrical signal parameters of the plurality of second pressure sensors arranged along the first direction; the second directional parameter refers to the electrical signal parameters of the plurality of second pressure sensors arranged along the second direction.

[0114] In some embodiments, the first direction and the second direction can be along the length and width directions of the cover, respectively. Some of the first pressure sensors are arranged linearly along the length direction of the cover, while others are arranged linearly along the width direction of the cover. When the cover is twisted along either the length or width direction, the parameters of the first direction and the second direction are different.

[0115] In some implementations, the first direction parameter and the second direction parameter can be composed of one of multiple voltage signals, current signals, or capacitance signals, or they can be a distribution curve composed of multiple voltage signals, current signals, or capacitance signals, or they can be the positive or negative values ​​of voltage signals. For example, when the mobile terminal bends along the first direction, multiple second pressure sensors in the first direction generate positive signals, and multiple second pressure sensors in the second direction generate negative signals. The twisted or bent shape of the mobile terminal is determined by judging the signal types in the first and second directions.

[0116] In some implementations, the first direction parameter may be the average value of multiple voltage signals, current signals, or capacitance signals along the first direction, or it may be a distribution curve generated based on multiple voltage signals, current signals, or capacitance signals along the first direction; the second direction parameter may be the average value of multiple voltage signals, current signals, or capacitance signals along the second direction, or it may be a distribution curve generated based on multiple voltage signals, current signals, or capacitance signals along the second direction.

[0117] Step S430: Determine whether the first direction parameter meets the first preset condition and whether the second direction parameter meets the second preset condition.

[0118] In some implementations, the first preset condition and the second preset component can be specific preset values ​​or preset value ranges. If the first direction parameter and the second direction parameter are equal to the preset value or within the preset value range, then it is determined that the first direction parameter satisfies the first preset condition and the second direction parameter satisfies the second preset condition. Alternatively, the first preset condition and the second preset condition can be preset distribution curves of voltage signals, current signals, or capacitance signals. When the distribution curve generated by the mobile terminal based on the first direction parameter matches the first preset distribution curve, it is determined that the first direction parameter satisfies the first preset condition. When the distribution curve generated based on the second direction parameter matches the second preset distribution curve, it is determined that the second direction parameter satisfies the second preset condition.

[0119] In a specific application environment, the first direction parameter is a voltage signal generated by multiple second pressure sensors set along the first direction. When the mobile terminal obtains multiple voltage signals from the first direction parameter and generates a first direction pressure distribution curve according to a preset curve generation rule, it matches the generated first direction pressure distribution curve with a preset pressure distribution curve. The preset pressure distribution curve can be a pressure distribution curve generated by simulating or experimenting with the mobile terminal under abnormal touch pressure before leaving the factory.

[0120] If so, proceed to step S440: refuse to respond to the current pressure touch operation.

[0121] The pressure touch method provided in this embodiment obtains two directional parameters of the second pressure touch parameter, determines whether the two directional parameters meet the preset conditions, and improves the detection accuracy by combining the directional parameters, effectively avoiding the accidental triggering of touch operation when the mobile terminal is subjected to torsion or other abnormal touch pressure external force.
