[0029] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0030] The terms "first" and "second" in this application are used to distinguish different objects, rather than to describe a specific order. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not limited to the listed steps or units, but may include steps or units that are not listed.

[0031] The first electronic device provided in the embodiment of the present application is to be distinguished from the second electronic device in the data system described in the embodiment of the present application, and it can actually be various types of devices with information processing functions in data processing scenarios. Specifically, the data system composed of the first electronic device and the second electronic device can be a data system in which two devices are combined into one, that is, the first electronic device and the second electronic device are detachably connected. The input module in the first electronic device can work independently of the mode of the first electronic device, and it can be used independently by the second electronic device, thereby reducing the power consumption of the device.

[0032] See also Figure 1 , is a schematic diagram of the structure of a first electronic device provided in an embodiment of the present application. The first electronic device includes several hardware modules and an input module. These hardware modules may include a processing module, a power module, a storage module, a control module, an input module, and an output module. For ease of description, Figure 1 It is shown in FIG. 1 that the first electronic device 10 includes a hardware module 101 , a hardware module 102 , a hardware module 103 and an input module 104 .

[0033] The first electronic device is detachably connected to the second electronic device, and the first electronic device and the second electronic device can be combined into a target device. If the target device runs the first operating system corresponding to the first electronic device, the first operating system operation interface is displayed on the display interface of the second electronic device; if the target device runs the second operating system corresponding to the second electronic device, the second operating system operation interface is displayed on the display interface of the second electronic device. For example, the first electronic device and the second electronic device can be connected by plugging and unplugging through a detachable connector, the first electronic device can include a receiving end of the detachable connector, and the second electronic device can include an insertion end of the detachable connector; or the detachable connector can be divided into two parts, one part is connected to the interface of the first electronic device, and the other part is connected to the interface of the second electronic device, so as to realize the physical connection of the first electronic device and the second electronic device through the detachable connector. For another example, the first electronic device and the second electronic device can be combined together through a USB (Universal Serial Bus) socket and combined together through a connecting line. Correspondingly, the first electronic device and the second electronic device can also be combined together by wireless connection. The first electronic device can run the first operating system based on several hardware modules, that is, the first electronic device is an information processing device that can independently run based on the first operating system. For example, the first electronic device can be a smart base, which includes multiple hardware modules and input modules. For example, the smart base can include a control motherboard, a power module, a keyboard, and a handwriting board. The user can perform functions such as data processing, data input, data storage, and data transmission based on the first electronic device. For example, the user can input information in the display area projected by the first electronic device.

[0034] The first electronic device has different modes, and its power consumption and / or running hardware modules may be different in each mode. For example, the first electronic device includes a first mode and a second mode different from the first mode, wherein the first mode may be a working mode of the first electronic device, that is, the first electronic device is in a normal working state; the second mode may be a non-working mode of the first electronic device, such as the second mode may be a shutdown state of the first electronic device. In another embodiment, the first mode may be a normal working mode of the first electronic device, and the second mode may be a dormant mode or a sleep mode. That is, the second mode has lower power consumption than the first mode.

[0035] When the first electronic device is in the first mode, the first operating system can respond to the input of the input module. Specifically, when the first electronic device is in the first mode, the first electronic device can run the first operating system. At this time, the information input by the input module can be presented in the application corresponding to the first operating system, or in the main interface corresponding to the first operating system. For example, if the first electronic device and the second electronic device are connected, the second electronic device serves as the display device of the first electronic device, and the first electronic device is a smart base, the smart base can be configured with a Windows operating system, and the display device can be configured with an Android operating system. In the first mode, the Windows operating system of the smart base is running. At this time, the display device displays the corresponding display information under the Windows operating system. This is based on the input module in the smart base inputting information, and the processing module corresponding to the Windows operating system can respond to the input information, and the response information corresponding to the input information can be presented in the display area of ​​the display device.

[0036] In the second mode, the first electronic device is in a non-working state, such as the first electronic device can be in a shutdown state, and the second operating system of the second electronic device is executed at this time. At this time, the non-working state of the first electronic device does not affect the operation of the input module in the first electronic device, and the second operating system of the second electronic device can respond to the input of the input module. For example, when the first electronic device is a base device and the second electronic device is a display device, when the base device and the display device are detachably connected, in the second mode, the base device is shut down and the display device is in a normal working mode. At this time, the Android operating system corresponding to the display device can be run. Although the base device is in a shutdown state, the input module can be independently operated without being affected by the state of the base device, that is, when the base device is in a shutdown state, the input module can still receive the user's input operation, generate input information, and transmit the input information to the display device, so that the display device responds to the input information, such as the display device displays the input characters corresponding to the input information in the display interface of the display device, or switches the display interface on the display device in response to the switching shortcut characters corresponding to the input information.

[0037] Among them, the first electronic device can control the input module to be in the power supply state through the power supply state of several hardware modules so that the first electronic device enters the second mode from the first mode. The power consumption of the first electronic device in the first mode is higher than the power consumption of the first electronic device in the second mode. In the first mode, the power supply module of the first electronic device can supply power to each hardware module and the input module, that is, each hardware module and the input module are in the running state, and the running state means that it can respond to the trigger signal corresponding to the hardware module at any time. If in the first mode, the first electronic device receives a trigger instruction to enter the second mode, such as when the power off key of the first electronic device is pressed, it means that the first electronic device is going to enter the shutdown state, and the first electronic device will automatically perform a power-off operation on the relevant hardware modules. Since the input module can be unaffected by the shutdown state of the first electronic device in the embodiment of the present application, the input module can be excluded from the processing logic of the power-off operation of the first electronic device, that is, when the first electronic device performs the power-off operation in the second mode, it can be a power-off operation on other hardware modules except the input module; it can also be a power-off operation on the input module and the modules related to the input module, and the power off of other hardware modules. After the first electronic device performs the above-mentioned adjustment of the power supply state of the hardware module and the input module, it enters the second mode from the first mode.

[0038] Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the input module of the first electronic device may not be affected by the mode of the first electronic device, and can communicate data with the second electronic device. Even if the first electronic device is in the off state / dormant mode / sleep mode, the input module can also transmit the corresponding input information to the second electronic device, thereby achieving that when the first electronic device is in a low power consumption state, the second electronic device can also apply the input module of the first electronic device, thereby reducing the power consumption of the first electronic device, extending the battery life of the first electronic device, and achieving the reuse of the input module of the first electronic device, thereby improving the user experience.

[0039] In one implementation of the embodiment of the present application, the first electronic device further includes a detection module. The detection module is used to determine the connection state between the first electronic device and the second electronic device, and in response to switching from the first connection state to the second connection state, execute the switching of the first electronic device from the first mode to the second mode. In this implementation, the detection module of the first electronic device is configured with a connection state detection logic of the first electronic device and the second electronic device, and a mode switching logic corresponding to the detection logic. Specifically, the detection module can be connected to the access interface of the first electronic device, and the access interface is used to connect to the second electronic device through a detachable connector, so that the detection module determines the connection state of the first electronic device and the second electronic device by detecting the state of the interface. For example, if it is detected that a device is inserted into the access interface, it means that the first electronic device and the second electronic device are in the first connection state, that is, the first electronic device and the second electronic device are in a physical connection state, and the first electronic device is in the first mode. If the detection module detects that the access interface of the first electronic device does not have a second electronic device inserted, it means that the first electronic device and the second electronic device are in a second connection state, and the second connection state is a state in which the first electronic device and the second electronic device are not physically connected, such as the second connection state includes a state in which the first electronic device and the second electronic device are wirelessly connected. When the detection module executes the detection logic configured therein to detect that the first electronic device and the second electronic device switch from the first connection state to the second connection state, the detection module can continue to execute the switching logic, that is, execute the switching of the first electronic device from the first mode to the second mode. Further, the first electronic device may also include a low-power control module, so that the detection module sends the detection result of the connection state to the low-power control module, and the low-power control module executes the mode switching of the first electronic device. In an embodiment of the present application, the response mode of the input module of the first electronic device can be determined according to the connection state of the first electronic device and the second electronic device, so that the application of the input module of the first electronic device is not affected by the connection method of the first electronic device and the second electronic device, so that the application range of the input module in the first electronic device is wider.

[0040] Furthermore, in an embodiment of the present application, the connection states of the first electronic device and the second electronic device are different, and the corresponding communication paths between the input module of the first electronic device and the second electronic device are different, so as to better adapt to the current connection state through different communication paths, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the power consumption of the electronic device and ensuring effective data transmission. Specifically, the detection module of the first electronic device is used to respond to the first connection state, connect the first path between the input module and the second electronic device, so that the second electronic device can respond to the input of the input module based on the first path. The detection module is also used to respond to the second connection state, connect the second path between the input module and the second electronic device, so that the second electronic device can respond to the input of the input module based on the second path. Among them, the component modules of the first path and the second path are different.

[0041] The first connection state between the first electronic device and the second electronic device represents the physical connection state established between the first electronic device and the second electronic device through the detachable connector. Therefore, the first path between the input module and the second electronic device can be established through the communication submodule configured in the detachable connector, that is, the first path is a communication link composed of the input module, the first communication submodule and the first input interface of the second electronic device, and the first communication submodule is a communication submodule in the detachable connector that establishes a first communication connection between the first electronic device and the second electronic device. In this embodiment, the interaction of input information between the input module of the first electronic device and the second electronic device is realized through the communication submodule of the detachable connector, so as to realize the reuse of the functional modules in the existing detachable connector and avoid the increase of additional hardware costs.

[0042] The second connection state of the first electronic device and the second electronic device represents the wireless connection state of the first electronic device and the second electronic device. At this time, the first path of the input module and the second electronic device can be connected. The second path is adapted to the current wireless connection state of the first electronic device and the second electronic device. The second path is a communication link formed by the input module through the second communication submodule of the input module and the second input interface of the second electronic device. Among them, the second communication submodule of the input module can be a wireless communication submodule, such as a wireless WiFi submodule, a Bluetooth module, a mobile data network module (4G or 5G), etc. Correspondingly, the second input interface of the second electronic device can be a wireless data access interface. In the second connection state, the first electronic device and the second electronic device are physically disconnected, and the communication connection between the input module and the second electronic device can be established based on the second communication submodule (i.e., wireless communication module) configured by the input module in the first electronic device, and then the input data is transmitted, so that the input module can perform the corresponding input operation independently of the mode and connection mode of the first electronic device, so that the application range of the input module is wider, and the current mode of the first electronic device can also be unchanged, reducing the power consumption of the first electronic device.

[0043] In one implementation of the embodiment of the present application, the first electronic device also includes a first determination module for determining the mode of the second electronic device. The first determination module is used to determine the working mode of the second electronic device, in response to switching from the first connection state to the second connection state, determine that the second electronic device is in the first working mode, and execute the switching of the first electronic device from the first mode to the second mode; if it is determined that the second electronic device is in the second working mode, the switching of the first electronic device from the first mode to the second mode is not executed. The switching of the first electronic device and the second electronic device from the first connection state to the second connection state can be switching from a physical connection to a wireless connection. At this time, the power-on state of each hardware module and the input module in the first electronic device can be determined according to the working mode of the second electronic device. For example, the first working mode of the second electronic device is a mode of normal operation when the machine is turned on. At this time, the first determination module can execute the processing logic of determining the working mode of the second electronic device, and can also further execute the processing logic of the mode switching of the first electronic device according to the determination result. The corresponding first determination module can also send the determination result of the working mode of the second electronic device to the low power consumption control module in the first electronic device, and the low power consumption control module executes the processing logic of the mode switching of the first electronic device according to the determination result. When it is determined that the second electronic device is in a normal working mode after being powered on, the first electronic device can be controlled to enter the second mode from the first mode, so that the second operating system of the second electronic device responds to the input of the input module. At this time, if the second operating system of the second electronic device does not need to call the functional module of the first electronic device, but only needs to use the input module of the first electronic device, only the input module of the first electronic device and / or the associated module corresponding to the input module can be powered on, and other hardware modules can be powered off, which can reduce the power consumption of the first electronic device. Correspondingly, if the second electronic device is in the second working mode, such as the second working mode is the shutdown mode of the second electronic device, the switching of the first electronic device from the first mode to the second mode is not executed. In this case, the second electronic device is powered off and will not use the hardware module in the first electronic device. It can be the first operating system of the first electronic device that responds to the input of the input module.

[0044] In another implementation of the embodiment of the present application, the first electronic device further includes: a second determination module for determining the working mode of the electronic device. The second determination module is used to determine that the first electronic device and the second electronic device are in the first connection state, determine that the second electronic device is in the first working mode, and execute the switching of the first electronic device from the first mode to the second mode; if the second electronic device is in the second working mode, the switching of the first electronic device from the first mode to the second mode is not executed.

[0045] When the first electronic device and the second electronic device are in the first connection state, it represents that the first electronic device and the second electronic device are in a physically connected state. The first working mode of the second electronic device represents the power-on working mode of the second electronic device, and the second working mode of the second electronic device represents the power-off mode of the second electronic device. If the second electronic device is in the power-on working mode, at this time, the second operating system of the second electronic device can respond to the input of the input module. If the second electronic device is in the power-off working mode, the first operating system of the first electronic device can respond to the input of the input module. Specifically, both the first determination module and the second determination module can monitor the state of the physical power button of the second electronic device to determine the working mode of the second electronic device.

[0046] In order to quickly establish a communication connection between the input module in the first electronic device and the second electronic device, the relevant connection configuration information can be stored to facilitate the subsequent call of the communication connection. In one embodiment, the first electronic device also includes a storage module; the storage module is used to store the connection configuration information of the first electronic device and the second electronic device when the first electronic device and the second electronic device are in the first connection state for the first time, so that the input module establishes a communication connection with the second electronic device based on the connection configuration information. Among them, when the first electronic device and the second electronic device are in the first connection state for the first time, it represents that the first electronic device and the second electronic device are physically connected for the first time. This can be through the first electronic device and the second electronic device protocol negotiation wireless key pairing, and the key information is stored as connection configuration information in the storage module of the first electronic device. The input module of the first electronic device can access the information in the storage module, so that even if the first electronic device and the second electronic device disconnect the physical connection, the input module can also be based on the connection configuration information, such as through the stored key to automatically pair and connect with the second electronic device, so that the efficiency of establishing a communication connection between the input module and the second electronic device can be improved, so that the transmission of input data is more efficient and accurate.

[0047] In order to improve the battery life of electronic devices, in one implementation of the present application, the input module includes: a monitoring sub-module; a monitoring sub-module for monitoring data interaction information of the input module, and if the monitoring result indicates that the input module has not performed data interaction within a target time period, the input module is switched from a first power consumption mode to a second power consumption mode, and the power consumption of the first power consumption mode is greater than the power consumption of the second power consumption mode.

[0048] The data interaction information of the input module is monitored by the monitoring submodule. The data interaction information can be used to determine whether the input module is used. If the input module does not perform data interaction during the target time period, it indicates that the input module is not used during the target time period, and the input module can be controlled to enter a low power consumption mode. For example, the target time period can be set to 10 minutes, and the input module can be a keyboard in a base device. When the keyboard is used as an independent module, if the keyboard is not used for a long time for more than 10 minutes, the keyboard can still enter a deep sleep mode. Only when the keyboard is actively triggered can the keyboard be awakened from the deep sleep mode to improve the battery life of the input module.

[0049] In one implementation of the embodiment of the present application, the first electronic device further includes: a control module; a control module, which is used to control the power supply module of the second electronic device to supply power to the input module when the first electronic device and the second electronic device are in a first connection state. When the first electronic device and the second electronic device establish a physical connection, if the first electronic device is in a shutdown state, in order to further reduce the power consumption of the first electronic device, the power supply module of the second electronic device can be controlled by the control module to supply power to the input module. At this time, the power supply path can be composed of the power supply module of the second electronic device, the power supply circuit in the physical connector between the first electronic device and the second electronic device, and the input module.

[0050] In the following, the first electronic device is taken as the base device, and the second electronic device is taken as the display device. The base device and the display device can be connected via a detachable connector to form an integral device, which can be referred to as a target device. The base device runs a Windows operating system, and the display device runs an Android operating system. The base device may include a power supply module, a processing module, an input module, an output module, a computing module, and the like. When the display device is not connected to the base device, it can be used in a manner similar to a tablet computer.

[0051] See also Figure 2 , is a schematic diagram of a base device provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 The base device shown above (in Figure 2 The PC base is a general base device mode, which includes a connection component (such as a PC base) that is physically connected to the display device. Figure 2 The PC base also includes a keyboard module (Keyboard) and a battery module (Battery). The PC base is also equipped with a Bluetooth module (Bluetooth). In the general mode, the PC base only corresponds to one switch button ( Figure 2 If the PC base is turned off, the keyboard module is turned off; if the PC base is turned on, the keyboard module is turned on. Figure 2The improved PC base of the embodiment of the present application shown below includes a set of switch buttons ( Figure 2 The keyboard module also includes a set of switch buttons corresponding to it. The power on or off of the keyboard module is controlled only by the switch button corresponding to the keyboard module and is not affected by the switch button of the PC base. For example, if the PC base is turned off and the keyboard module is turned on, a communication connection with the display device can be established through the Bluetooth module of the keyboard module, and the display device can respond to the input information of the keyboard based on the Android operating system.

[0052] The following describes the connection status, power on / off status, and corresponding interaction modes between the PC base and the display device.

[0053] See also Figure 3 , which shows the processing flow in the physical wired connection mode of the PC base and the display device. If the base is turned on, the PC is turned on and the keyboard is turned on, the display device is also in the turned-on state, wherein the PC being turned on indicates that the base is running the Windows operating system. Determine the mode of the display device, the display mode of the display device includes a PC display mode and a Tab mode, wherein the PC display mode indicates that the display device displays the display information running under the Windows operating system of the PC base. The Tab mode indicates that the display device displays the display information running under the Android operating system of the display device. If in the PC display mode, the input information of the keyboard is transmitted to the display device through the hardware connection path between the PC base and the display device, wherein the hardware connection path is a communication link established by the detachable connector between the PC base and the display device. If in the Tab mode, the input information of the keyboard is transmitted to the display device through the input link between the keyboard and the display device.

[0054] See also Figure 4 , which is a data processing flow for establishing a wireless connection between a PC base and a display device provided in an embodiment of the present application. In the modes of the PC base being turned on, the PC being turned on, and the keyboard being turned on, the keyboard usage mode is determined, and the keyboard usage mode includes a PC keyboard mode and a single-use mode, wherein the PC keyboard mode represents a mode in which the keyboard is applied to a display device to display the display information of the Windows operating system of the PC base, and the single-use mode represents a mode in which the keyboard is applied to a display device to display the display information of the Android operating system of the display device, i.e., corresponds to a tablet mode in which the display device is used alone. At this time, in the single-use mode of the keyboard, the input information of the keyboard is transmitted to the display device through the Bluetooth module.

[0055] See also Figure 5 , which is another data processing flow for establishing a wireless connection between a PC base and a display device provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 5As shown, in this application scenario, the PC base is turned off and the keyboard is turned on. At this time, the keyboard is in a single use mode, that is, the keyboard is used by the display device, and the display device is in Tab mode. The Tab mode represents that the display device displays the display information of the Android operating system of the display device. At this time, the input information of the keyboard is transmitted to the display device via the Bluetooth transmission module.

[0056] It can be seen that in this application scenario embodiment, the keyboard can be used in conjunction with the PC base to maintain the form of the PC base and the display device combined into one. At the same time, the keyboard can be used as an independent module, independent of the PC base status. When the keyboard is used as an independent module, the power consumption of the PC base can be greatly reduced and the battery life of the PC base can be extended. When the keyboard is combined with the PC base, it works through a physical interface connection with the display device.
