DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the touch pen includes: a pen body 10 , a touch module 20 and a signal transceiver module 30 .

[0024] The pen body 10 is a hollow structure, the touch module 20 and the signal transceiver module 30 are both located in the pen body 10, and the touch module 20 is electrically connected to the signal transceiver module 30. The touch module 20 may include a circuit board 21 and a resistor component 22, the circuit board 21 is arranged on the inner wall of the pen body 10, and the resistor component 22 is arranged on the circuit board 21. When the outer wall of the pen body 10 opposite to the touch module 20 is operated, the resistance of the resistor component 22 changes, so as to control the electronic device connected to the signal transceiver module 30 through the resistance change, and adjust the function of the electronic device.

[0025] In the embodiment of the present application, since the pen body 10 is a hollow structure, the touch module 20 and the signal transceiver module 30 can be installed in the pen body 10. Since the touch module 20 and the signal transceiver module 30 are both located in the pen body 10, the touch module 20 is electrically connected to the signal transceiver module 30, and the touch module 20 includes a circuit board 21 and a resistor component 22, the resistor component 22 is arranged on the circuit board 11, and the resistor component 22 is electrically connected to the signal transceiver module 30. Therefore, when the outer wall of the pen body 10 opposite to the position of the touch module 20 is operated, a signal can be transmitted between the touch module 20 and the signal transceiver module 30, and the touch module 20 can transmit a signal to the signal transceiver module 30, that is, the resistance of the resistor component 20 will change, and the resistor component 20 transmits the resistance change to the signal transceiver module 30, so that the stylus can control the electronic device connected to the signal transceiver module 30 according to the resistance change, so that the electronic device can perform corresponding operations according to the signal, that is, adjust the function of the electronic device. That is, in the embodiment of the present application, by setting a touch module 20 and a signal transceiver module 30 in the pen body 10, when the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the touch module 20 is operated, the electronic device connected to the signal transceiver module 30 can be controlled, that is, the electronic device can be controlled by operating the outer wall of the stylus, thereby avoiding multiple switching on the display screen, thereby improving the user experience.

[0026] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the signal transceiver module 30 may be a Bluetooth module, and of course may also be a short-range wireless communication module, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0027] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, when an operation is performed on the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the touch module 20, at this time, the resistance of the resistor component 22 changes, that is, the touch module 20 can generate a touch signal, and the touch module 20 can transmit the touch signal to the signal transceiver module 30. Generally, the signal transceiver module 30 can be connected to an electronic device, and after the signal transceiver module 30 receives the touch signal, the signal transceiver module 30 can send the touch signal to the electronic device, so that the electronic device can perform a corresponding operation according to the touch signal. Among them, when the operations performed on the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the touch module 20 are different, the touch signal generated by the touch module 20 is also different, and the operation performed by the electronic device is also different, that is, the function adjustment of the electronic device is also different.

[0028] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, the operation performed on the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the touch module 20 includes but is not limited to a long press operation, a short press operation, a sliding operation, a rotation operation, etc. The specific operation can be set according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit this.

[0029] For example, when a long press operation is performed on the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the touch module 20, a primary menu may be displayed on the display screen of the electronic device, and when a short press operation is performed on the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the touch module 20, a secondary menu may be displayed on the display screen of the electronic device. For another example, when a long press operation is performed on the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the touch module 20, the picture played on the display screen may be fast-forwarded, and when a short press operation is performed on the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the touch module 20, the picture played on the display screen of the electronic device may be stopped.

[0030] In addition, when the user draws on the display screen, it is usually necessary to adjust the brushstroke effect, line thickness and color of the painting pen displayed on the display screen, and the brushstroke effect, line thickness and color are divided into three levels of operation menus, the first level operation menu corresponds to the brushstroke effect, such as pencil, pen, brush, etc., the second level operation menu corresponds to the line thickness, and the third level menu corresponds to the color. At this time, when the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the touch module 20 is long pressed, the brushstroke effect on the display screen of the electronic device can be changed. For example, each time the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the touch module 20 is long pressed, the brushstroke effect is switched once on the display screen of the electronic device. When the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the touch module 20 is short pressed, the line thickness on the display screen of the electronic device can be changed. When the outer wall corresponding to the position of the touch module 20 is clicked, the color on the display screen of the electronic device can be changed.

[0031] For example, when using a stylus to control an electronic device, you can first long press the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the touch module 20 to display the brush on the display screen of the electronic device, then short press the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the touch module 20 to make the writing drawn by the brush on the display screen of the electronic device have a moderate thickness, and finally click the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the touch module 20 to change the color of the writing drawn by the brush.

[0032] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the stylus pen may further include a control module 60 , and the control module 60 is electrically connected to the touch module 20 and the signal transceiver module 30 , respectively.

[0033] When the stylus pen includes a control module 60, and the control module 60 is electrically connected to the touch module 20 and the signal transceiver module 30 respectively, at this time, when the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the touch module 20 is operated, the resistance of the resistor component 22 changes, that is, the touch module 20 can generate a touch signal, and send the touch signal to the control module 60, the control module 60 generates a control signal according to the touch signal, and sends the control signal to the signal transceiver module 30, the signal transceiver module 30 sends the control signal to the electronic device connected to the signal transceiver module 30, so that the electronic device performs the corresponding operation according to the control signal.

[0034] It should be noted that the control module 60 may be a controller, or a control chip, a processor, etc.

[0035] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the resistor component 22 may include a fixed resistor 221 and a pressure-sensitive component 222. The fixed resistor 221 and the pressure-sensitive component 222 are both arranged on the first surface of the circuit board 21, and the first surface is the surface facing the internal space of the pen body 10. The fixed resistor 221 is electrically connected to the pressure-sensitive resistor 223, and the pressure-sensitive component 222 is electrically connected to the signal transceiver module 30, and the fixed resistor 221 and the pressure-sensitive resistor 223 form a resistor bridge.

[0036] When the resistor component 22 includes a fixed resistor 221 and a pressure-sensitive component 222, the fixed resistor 221 and the pressure-sensitive component 222 are both arranged on the circuit board 21, and the fixed resistor 221 and the pressure-sensitive component 223 are electrically connected, at this time, the fixed resistor 221 can form a resistance bridge with the pressure-sensitive resistor 223, so that the resistance of the fixed resistor 221 and the pressure-sensitive component 222 is balanced. In addition, since the circuit board 21 is arranged on the inner wall of the pen body 10, when the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the circuit board 21 is operated, that is, when the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the touch module 20 is operated, the resistance of the pressure-sensitive resistor 223 will change, so that the resistance between the fixed resistor 221 and the pressure-sensitive component 222 is unbalanced, so that the resistance of the resistance bridge formed by the fixed resistor 221 and the pressure-sensitive component 222 changes, so that the voltage of the resistance bridge changes, and the signal transceiver module 30 can obtain the voltage change signal, so as to control the electronic device connected to the signal transceiver module 30, that is, to make the electronic device perform the corresponding operation.

[0037] It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, the circuit board 21 can be a flexible printed circuit (FPC), and of course, it can also be a printed circuit board (PCB). The type of the circuit board 21 is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0038] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, the fixed resistor 221 refers to a resistor whose resistance value does not change. In addition, when the touch module 20 includes a circuit board 21, a fixed resistor 221 and a pressure-sensitive component 222, at this time, when operating the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the circuit board 21, the operation position is mainly pressed, for example, a long press operation, a short press operation, etc.

[0039] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the number of fixed resistors 221 can be multiple, and the pressure-sensitive component 222 can include multiple pressure-sensitive resistors 223. The multiple pressure-sensitive resistors 223 are connected in series in sequence, and the multiple fixed resistors 221 are connected in series in sequence, and the multiple fixed resistors 221 connected in series are electrically connected to the multiple pressure-sensitive resistors 223 connected in series to form a resistance bridge.

[0040] When there are multiple fixed resistors 221 and the pressure-sensitive component 222 includes multiple pressure-sensitive resistors 223, the multiple pressure-sensitive resistors 223 are connected in series in sequence, and the multiple fixed resistors 221 are connected in series in sequence. The first fixed resistor 221 in the multiple fixed resistors 221 after the series connection can be connected to the first pressure-sensitive resistor 223 in the multiple pressure-sensitive resistors 223 after the series connection, and the last fixed resistor 221 in the multiple fixed resistors 221 after the series connection can be connected to the last pressure-sensitive resistor 223 in the multiple pressure-sensitive resistors 223 after the series connection, so that the multiple fixed resistors 221 and the multiple pressure-sensitive resistors 223 form a closed-loop resistance bridge. At this time, when the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the circuit board 21 is operated, the resistance values ​​of the multiple pressure-sensitive resistors 223 change, so that the voltage in the resistance bridge changes.

[0041] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, a voltage can be applied to the resistance bridge, and when the resistance values ​​of the fixed resistor 221 and the varistor 223 are balanced, the voltage in the resistance bridge remains unchanged. When the resistance value of the varistor 223 changes due to the operation on the outer wall of the pen body 10, at this time, the resistance values ​​of the fixed resistor 221 and the varistor 223 lose balance, and the voltage in the resistance bridge changes.

[0042] For example, Figure 2 As shown, there are three fixed resistors 221, and the pressure-sensitive component 222 includes three pressure-sensitive resistors 223. The three fixed resistors 221 and the pressure-sensitive component 222 form a resistance bridge, and have four connection points A, B, C and D, and the power supply is connected to point A and point C. When the resistance value of the pressure-sensitive component 222 remains unchanged, the voltages at points B and D in the resistance bridge remain unchanged. When the resistance value of the pressure-sensitive component 222 changes, the voltages at points B and D in the resistance bridge change.

[0043] In addition, in some embodiments, the stylus pen may further include a voltage detection module 40, which is electrically connected to the pressure-sensitive component 222 and the signal transceiver module 30, respectively, and detects the voltage change of the resistor bridge and the duration of the voltage change.

[0044] When the stylus includes a voltage detection module 40, and the voltage detection module 40 is electrically connected to the pressure-sensitive component 222 and the signal transceiver module 30, at this time, when the outer wall of the pen body 10 relative to the position of the circuit board 21 is operated, the resistance value of the pressure-sensitive component 222 changes, so that the voltage detection module 40 can detect the voltage change in the resistance bridge and the duration of the voltage change, thereby determining whether the operation on the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the circuit board 21 is a long press operation or a short press operation, thereby generating different touch signals, so that the electronic device performs different operations. That is, by setting the voltage detection module 40, the type of operation performed on the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the circuit board 21 can be determined, so that the electronic device performs different operations.

[0045] It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, a time threshold can be set. When the duration of the voltage change of the resistance bridge is greater than the time threshold, the operation on the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the circuit board 21 is determined to be a long press operation. When the duration of the voltage change of the resistance bridge is less than the time threshold, the operation on the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the circuit board 21 is determined to be a short press operation. The time threshold can be set according to actual needs. For example, the time threshold can be 2 seconds or 3 seconds. In this regard, the embodiment of the present application does not limit it here.

[0046] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, when the stylus includes a control module 60, at this time, the voltage detection module 40 can be electrically connected to the control module 60, and the control module 60 is electrically connected to the signal transceiver module 30. When the voltage detection module 40 detects the voltage change of the resistance bridge and the voltage change duration, the voltage detection module 40 can send the voltage change duration to the control module 60, and the control module 60 generates a control signal according to the voltage change duration, and sends the control signal to the signal transceiver module 30, and the signal transceiver module 30 sends the control signal to the electronic device, so that the electronic device performs the corresponding operation according to the control signal.

[0047] In addition, in some embodiments, the circuit board 21 can be arranged on the inner wall of the pen body 10 along the circumference of the pen body 10, and a plurality of capacitor regions 211 are arranged at intervals on the second surface of the circuit board 21, two adjacent capacitor regions 211 are insulated from each other, and the second surface is a surface facing the inner wall of the pen body 10. The plurality of capacitor regions 211 are all connected to the signal transceiver module 30.

[0048] When the circuit board 21 is arranged on the inner wall of the pen body 10 along the circumference of the pen body 10, and a plurality of capacitor regions 211 are arranged at intervals on the second surface of the circuit board 21, and the second surface faces the inner wall of the pen body 10, at this time, the capacitor region 211 and the outer wall of the pen body 10 are equivalent to forming a capacitor. When the user touches the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the circuit board 21, the capacitance value of the capacitor region 211 changes, and the signal transceiver module 30 can obtain the capacitance change of the capacitor region 211, so that the electronic device performs corresponding operations according to the capacitance value change of the capacitor region 211. In addition, two adjacent capacitor regions 211 are insulated from each other, and mutual interference between the two adjacent capacitor regions 211 can also be avoided.

[0049] In addition, in some embodiments, the stylus pen may further include a capacitance detection module 50 , which is electrically connected to the multiple capacitance regions 211 and the signal transceiver module 30 , respectively, and detects capacitance changes of the multiple capacitance regions 211 .

[0050] When the stylus includes a capacitance detection module 50, and the capacitance detection module 50 is electrically connected to multiple capacitance areas 211 and the signal transceiver module 30 respectively, at this time, when the user touches the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the circuit board 21, the capacitance value of the capacitance area 211 changes, and the capacitance detection module 50 can detect the capacitance change of the capacitance area 211, thereby sending the capacitance change to the signal transceiver module 30, so that the signal transceiver module 30 can obtain the capacitance change, and the signal transceiver module 30 can send the capacitance change to the electronic device, so that the electronic device performs corresponding operations according to the capacitance change.

[0051] In addition, when the stylus includes a control module 60, at this time, the capacitance detection module 50 can be electrically connected to the control module 60, and the control module 60 is connected to the signal transceiver module 30. When the capacitance detection module 50 detects a capacitance change in the capacitance area 211, the capacitance detection module 50 can send the detected capacitance change to the control module 60, and the control module 60 generates a control signal according to the capacitance change, and sends the control signal to the signal transceiver module 30, and the signal transceiver module 30 sends the control signal to the electronic device, so that the electronic device performs a corresponding operation according to the control signal.

[0052] In addition, in the embodiments of the present application, Figure 7As shown, the capacitance detection module 50 may include a capacitance detection submodule 51 and a signal conversion submodule 52. The capacitance detection submodule 51 is electrically connected to the signal conversion submodule 52, and the capacitance detection submodule 51 is electrically connected to the plurality of capacitance regions 211, and the signal conversion submodule 52 is electrically connected to the control module 60. The capacitance detection submodule 51 is used to detect the capacitance change of the plurality of capacitance regions 211, and the signal conversion submodule 52 is used to convert the capacitance change so that the control module 60 can identify the capacitance change. Among them, the capacitance change of the capacitance region 211 is usually an electrical signal, and the capacitance detection submodule 51 detects an electrical signal. At this time, the capacitance detection submodule 51 sends the electrical signal to the conversion module, and the conversion module converts the electrical signal into a digital signal, and sends the digital signal to the control module 60, and the control module 60 can identify the digital signal.

[0053] In addition, in the application embodiment, since a plurality of capacitor areas 211 are arranged at intervals on the circuit board 21, when the user holds the stylus, that is, when the user's hand contacts the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the circuit board 21, the stylus can be rotated to rotate the outer wall of the pen body 10, thereby causing the capacitance of the capacitor area 211 on the circuit board 21 to change, and the capacitance detection module 50 can detect the capacitance change to determine which capacitor area 211 the user touches at this time. In addition, by determining which capacitor area 211 the user touches, the rotation direction of the pen body 10 can also be determined, so that the capacitance detection module 50 can also send a rotation signal of the rotation direction of the pen body 10 to the control module 60, so that the control module 60 generates a control signal according to the rotation signal.

[0054] For example, if the stylus is rotated clockwise, the capacitance detection module 50 sends a first rotation signal to the control module 60, the control module 60 generates a first control signal, and the electronic device can execute the function of switching menus according to the first control signal. If the stylus is rotated counterclockwise, the capacitance detection module 50 sends a second rotation signal to the control module 60, the control module 60 generates a second control signal, and the electronic device can execute the function of selecting a menu according to the second control signal. For another example, when playing audio or video on a display screen, rotating the stylus clockwise can fast forward the audio or video on the display screen. Rotating the stylus counterclockwise can rewind the audio or video on the display screen.

[0055] In addition, during the rotation of the stylus pen, the position of the capacitor area 211 on the circuit board 21 changes due to the rotation of the pen body 10, thereby changing the capacitance of the capacitor area 211, and the number of user operations can be determined based on the number of capacitance changes.

[0056] For example, Figure 5As shown, 10 capacitor areas 211 are arranged at intervals on the circuit board 21, namely 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10. In the initial state, the user touches areas 3, 6, and 9 in the posture of holding a pen. After rotating a certain angle, it is set to rotate through two capacitor areas 211, that is, the capacitor areas 211 touched by the human hand after the rotation are 5, 8, and 1, and it is detected that the capacitance changes in areas 4, 7, and 10 also occur, then it is determined that a valid operation has occurred, and the number of operations by the user is 1.

[0057] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, when the stylus pen includes a control module 60, at this time, the pressure sensor is electrically connected to the control module 60, and the control module 60 is electrically connected to the signal transceiver module 30. When the pressure sensor senses an operation on the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the pressure sensor, the pressure sensor can sense the pressure signal of the operation and send the pressure signal to the control module 60. The control module 60 generates a control signal according to the pressure signal and sends the control signal to the signal transceiver module 30, so that the signal transceiver module 30 sends the control signal to the electronic device, so that the electronic device performs the operation corresponding to the control signal.

[0058] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 5 As shown, the stylus pen may include a feedback module 70, which is electrically connected to the control module 60. When operating the outer wall of the pen body 10 opposite to the touch module 20, the control module 60 controls the feedback module 70 to make the pen body 10 vibrate.

[0059] When the stylus includes a feedback module 70, and the feedback module 70 is electrically connected to the control module 60, at this time, when operating the outer wall of the pen body 10 opposite to the position of the touch module 20, the touch module 20 can generate a touch signal and send the touch signal to the control module 60. When the control module 60 sends the touch signal to the signal transceiver module 30, the control module 60 can control the feedback module 70, and the feedback module 70 can make the pen body 10 vibrate, thereby feeding back information of the user's successful operation to the user, so that the user can determine that the current operation on the outer wall of the pen body 10 is a valid operation based on the vibration of the pen body 10. That is, by setting the feedback module 70, it can serve as a prompt to the user, prompting the user that the current operation on the outer wall of the pen body 10 is a valid operation.

[0060] It should be noted that the feedback module 70 may be a linear motor, which may vibrate, thereby vibrating the pen body 10. Of course, the feedback module 70 may also be other vibrating devices, which is not limited in the present embodiment of the application.

[0061] In the embodiment of the present application, since the pen body 10 is a hollow structure, the touch module 20 and the signal transceiver module 30 can be installed in the pen body 10. Since the touch module 20 and the signal transceiver module 30 are both located in the pen body 10, the touch module 20 is electrically connected to the signal transceiver module 30, and the touch module 20 includes a circuit board 21 and a resistor component 22, the resistor component 22 is arranged on the circuit board 11, and the resistor component 22 is electrically connected to the signal transceiver module 30. Therefore, when the outer wall of the pen body 10 opposite to the position of the touch module 20 is operated, a signal can be transmitted between the touch module 20 and the signal transceiver module 30, and the touch module 20 can transmit a signal to the signal transceiver module 30, that is, the resistance of the resistor component 20 will change, and the resistor component 20 transmits the resistance change to the signal transceiver module 30, so that the stylus can control the electronic device connected to the signal transceiver module 30 according to the resistance change, so that the electronic device can perform corresponding operations according to the signal, that is, adjust the function of the electronic device. That is, in the embodiment of the present application, by setting a touch module 20 and a signal transceiver module 30 in the pen body 10, when the outer wall of the pen body 10 corresponding to the position of the touch module 20 is operated, the electronic device connected to the signal transceiver module 30 can be controlled, that is, the electronic device can be controlled by operating the outer wall of the stylus, thereby avoiding multiple switching on the display screen, thereby improving the user experience.
