[0056] The relative position relationship between the second body and the first body can be changed, and the input device can be in the first posture or the second posture by changing the relative position of the second body.

[0057] The transmission module 103 is connected to the electronic device for transmitting information to the electronic device;

[0058] Wherein, when the input device is in a first posture, the transmission module is used to output first information to the electronic device, and the first information is generated based on triggering the input structure;

[0059] In the case where the input device switches from the first posture to the second posture, the transmission module is used to output second information to the electronic device, where the second information is generated based on the posture change of the input device.

[0060] The relative position relationship between the first body and the second body can be controlled to change under the action of external force.

[0061] For example, the first body and the second body can be separated; the first body and the second body can be connected; or the connection position of the first body and the second body can be pressed to change their relative positional relationship.

[0062] In a possible implementation, the transmission module can be set in the second body, and when the first body and the second body are connected to form a first posture, the first information triggered by the input structure in the first body is output to the electronic device through the transmission module; when the connection state of the first body and the second body changes, causing the input device to switch from the first posture to the second posture, second information is generated based on the input device switching from the first posture to the second posture, and the transmission module outputs the second information to the electronic device.

[0063] Among them, the second information can be used as a shortcut key, wherein the input device switches from the first posture to the second posture, and the corresponding second information can be set according to the actual application scenario, for example, it can be to select the entire page, jump to the top of the page, etc. The present application does not limit the response corresponding to the second information.

[0064] In a possible implementation, the transmission module is disposed on the first body, and when the first body is not connected to the second body, the first body outputs the first information to the electronic device through the transmission module.

[0065] Should Figure 1 In the structural diagram, the transmission module is arranged in the first body. In a possible implementation, the transmission module can also be arranged in the second body, which can be arranged according to actual conditions.

[0066] In a possible implementation, the transmission module may also be disposed in the second body, and may be disposed according to actual conditions, which is not limited in this embodiment.

[0067] The input device in this embodiment includes a first body, a second body and a transmission module, wherein the first body is provided with at least one input structure; the second body can cooperate with the first body so that the input device has a switchable first posture and a second posture; the transmission module is connected to the electronic device for communication and is used to transmit information to the electronic device; wherein, when the input device is in the first posture, the transmission module is used to output the first information to the electronic device, and the first information is generated based on the trigger input structure; when the input device switches from the first posture to the second posture, the transmission module is used to output the second information to the electronic device, and the second information is generated based on the posture change of the input device. The input device can input specific second information by switching postures, and the second information can be used as shortcut function information, so as to realize the use of the posture switching of the input device to trigger the shortcut function, increase the operation mode of the input device, and improve the input experience.

[0068] Figure 2 is another structural schematic diagram of an input device provided in an embodiment of the present application, which may include the following structures: a first body 201, a second body 202 and a transmission module, the transmission module is arranged in the first body / the second body, which is not shown in the schematic diagram. Figure 2 (a), the input device is in a first posture, the Figure 2 (b) , the input device is in a second posture.

[0069] The input device is in the first posture including: the first surface 2011 of the first body 201 and the first surface 2021 of the second body 202 have a first contact area;

[0070] The input device is in the second posture including: the first surface 2011 of the first body 201 and the first surface 2021 of the second body 202 have a second contact area, and the second contact area is smaller than the first contact area.

[0071] Among them, the first body and the second body are in contact based on the first surface. When the input device is in the first posture, the first surfaces of the two are almost completely in contact, so that the connection between the two is very tight; when the input device is in the second posture, the first surfaces of the two are only partially in contact, and the degree of connection between the two is worse than in the first posture.

[0072] In a possible implementation, the first surface of the first body is adsorbed and connected to the first surface of the second body;

[0073] The inclination angle of the first surface 2011 of the first body 201 relative to the second surface 2012 and the inclination angle of the first surface 2021 of the second body 202 relative to the second surface 2022 are both acute angles.

[0074] When the input device is in a first posture, the second surface of the first body and the second surface of the second body do not meet the parallel condition.

[0075] Wherein, each second surface of the two bodies forms an acute inclination angle with the first surface.

[0076] When the input device is in the first posture, the acute angles of the two bodies can be spliced ​​together to obtain an obtuse angle. Figure 2 It can be seen from the figure that when the input device is in the first posture, the second surface of the first body and the second surface of the second body form an inverted "V" shape.

[0077] In which, when the input device is in the first posture, the first body and the second body form an angle of not less than 90°, and preferably the angle is an obtuse angle. The angle allows the user's hand to naturally fall on the inverted "V" shape formed by the first body and the second body when using the input device, thereby facilitating the user's operation.

[0078] Among them, the Figure 2 The input structure of the first body is arranged on the second surface thereof, and when the input device is in the first posture, the user's finger falls on the input structure of the second surface.

[0079] When the input device is in the second posture, the two bodies are parallel. Figure 2 It can be seen that when the input device is in the second posture, the second surface of the first body and the second surface of the second body are parallel to form a plane, and the first surface of the first body and the first surface of the second body are connected only at the top, and the contact area is very small.

[0080] Among them, the first surface of the first body and the first surface of the second body are adsorbed and connected, and the outer shells of the two local first surfaces can adopt adsorption material so that the first surfaces of the two can be adsorbed together to realize a movable connection, and the adsorption force of the adsorption material can make the two automatically change from the second posture back to the first posture when they are within a certain distance.

[0081] Among them, the first surface of the first body and the first surface of the second body can also be additionally provided with an adsorption mechanism so that the first surfaces of the two can be adsorbed together, and the adsorption force of the adsorption mechanism can enable the two to automatically change from the second posture to the first posture when they are within a certain distance.

[0082] Figure 3This is another structural diagram of an input device provided in an embodiment of the present application, which may include the following structures: a first body 301, a second body 302 and a transmission module. In this structural diagram, the input device is illustrated as a mouse.

[0083] The first surface 3011 of the first body 301 and the first surface 3021 of the second body 302 are respectively provided with adsorption structures 303 of matching shapes;

[0084] The adsorption structure 303 includes a protrusion 3031 disposed on the first surface of the first body and a groove 3032 disposed on the second surface of the second body.

[0085] Should Figure 3 In the embodiment, two protrusions are arranged on the first body, and correspondingly, two grooves are arranged on the second body.

[0086] In a possible implementation, the adsorption material can be set in whole or in part on the outer shell surface of the first surface of the first body and the first surface of the second body. When the adsorption material is partially set, it can be set on the surface outer shell on the protrusion of the first body and on the groove of the second body.

[0087] Wherein, when the input device is in the first posture, the first body and the second body are connected by the physical clamping and adsorption force of the adsorption structure;

[0088] The first body and the second body are physically connected together by means of protrusions and grooves, and adsorption materials are respectively arranged on the first surface of the first body and the first surface of the second body, so that the two can be connected by adsorption force.

[0089] Among them, when the input device is in the first posture, the first body and the second body are connected by physical snap connection and adsorption force, and the connection is tighter.

[0090] Wherein, when the input device is in the second posture, the first body and the second body are connected by the adsorption force of the adsorption structure.

[0091] The input device switches from the first posture to the second posture under the influence of external force, so that the first surface of the first body and the first surface of the second body are separated, and the contact area between the two is reduced.

[0092] Among them, the adsorption materials are respectively arranged on the first surface of the first body and the first surface of the second body, and the two are connected by the adsorption force. However, the characteristic of the adsorption force is that after the external force disappears, the first surface of the first body and the first surface of the second body can be adsorbed together under the action of the adsorption force, and the input device automatically returns to the first posture from the second posture.

[0093] In this embodiment, the input device is in a first posture including the first surface of the first body and the first surface of the second body having a first contact area, and the input device is in a second posture including the first surface of the first body and the first surface of the second body having a second contact area, and the second contact area is smaller than the first contact area. The two posture changes of the input device are reflected by the changes in the contact area of ​​the two surfaces used for contact.

[0094] Figure 4 is another structural diagram of an input device provided in an embodiment of the present application, which may include the following structures: a first body 401, a second body 402 and a transmission module, the transmission module is arranged in the first body / the second body, which is not shown in the schematic diagram. In the structural diagram, the input device is described as a mouse. Figure 4 The target area is indicated by a dotted box.

[0095] For the explanation of the structure and connection method of the first body and the second body, please refer to the explanation in the aforementioned embodiment.

[0096] Wherein, based on the target area 403 of the input device being in the first force state, the input device is in the second posture, and the target area is part or all of the area where the first body and the second body are in contact when the input device is in the first posture;

[0097] Wherein, based on the target area of ​​the input device being in the second force state or the unforced state, the input device is in the first posture, and the force in the first force state is greater than the force in the second force state.

[0098] The area where the first body and the second body contact each other includes the area of ​​the first body and the second body close to the first surface, specifically, the top part of the "V" formed by the first body and the second body. Figure 4 The above only shows a possible range, which is not limited thereto and can be wider or narrower, as long as it can ensure that the input device can switch between the first posture and the second posture under the action of force. Figure 4 Arrows are used to indicate the direction in which external forces are applied.

[0099] The user can press downward in the contact area between the first body and the second body, and the force applied by the action can offset the physical snap-on force and part of the adsorption force in the input device, so that the input device switches from the first posture to the second posture.

[0100] Generally, the target area is a position close to the first surface on the second surface of the first body and the second surface of the second body in the input device. The user can apply a downward force to the position where the two are connected. Since the first body and the second body are supported by a bearing surface at the other end away from the first surface, under the action of the downward force and the upward force of the bearing surface, the first surface indication part area of ​​the first body and the second body is separated, so that it switches to the second posture.

[0101] Among them, when the force applied to the target area of ​​the input device switches from a first force state to a second force state or an unforced state, the input device switches from the second posture to the first posture; when it switches from the second force state or the unforced state to the first force state, the input device switches from the first posture to the second posture.

[0102] In one possible implementation, the force corresponding to the first force state can offset the physical snap-on force and part of the adsorption force in the input device, so that the input device switches from the first posture to the second posture; the force corresponding to the second force state cannot offset the physical snap-on force and the adsorption force in the input device, and the input device is in the second posture.

[0103] The force applied to the target area may be achieved by pressing down with the fingertips of the user, or by applying a downward force from the palm area in contact with the connection position between the first body and the second body when holding the input device.

[0104] Figure 5 is another structural diagram of an input device provided in an embodiment of the present application, which may include the following structures: a first body 501, a second body 502 and a transmission module, the transmission module is arranged in the first body / the second body, which is not shown in the schematic diagram. Figure 5 (a), the input device is in a first posture, the Figure 5 (b) , the input device is in a third posture.

[0105] For the explanation of the structure and connection method of the first body and the second body, please refer to the explanation in the aforementioned embodiment.

[0106] Wherein, in the first posture of the input device, the contact area between the first surface 5011 of the first body 501 and the first surface 5021 of the second body 502 meets the preset value, and the second surface 5012 of the first body and the second surface 5022 of the second body do not meet the parallel condition, and the second surface of the first body is in contact with the first surface of the first body, and the second surface of the second body is in contact with the first surface of the second body;

[0107] In which, when the input device is in the third posture, the contact area between the first surface 5011 of the first body 501 and the first surface 5021 of the second body 502 meets the preset value, and the second surface 5012 of the first body and the second surface 5022 of the second body meet the parallel condition, the second surface of the first body is connected to the first surface of the first body, and the second surface of the second body is connected to the first surface of the second body.

[0108] In a possible implementation, an inclination angle of the first surface of the first body relative to the second surface and an inclination angle of the first surface of the second body relative to the second surface satisfy a complementary condition;

[0109] In the first posture, the second surface of the first body is on the first side of the input device, and the second surface of the second body is on the first side of the input device. In the third posture, the second surface of the first body is on the first side of the input device, and the second surface of the second body is on the second side of the input device.

[0110] The tilt angle satisfies a complementary condition, so that when the input device is in the first posture, the first body and the second body are connected to form a "V" shape, and when the input device is in the third posture, the first body and the second body are connected to form a "I" shape.

[0111] When the input device is in the first posture, the first surface of the first body contacts the first surface of the second body, and the second surface of the first body and the second surface of the second body form a "V" shape. When the input device is in use, the two form an inverted "V" shape.

[0112] When the input device is in the third posture, the first surface of the first body contacts the first surface of the second body, the second surface of the first body and the second surface of the second body are on different sides, and the first body and the second body are connected together to form a straight line.

[0113] In a possible implementation, the power consumption of the input device in the third posture is lower than that in the first posture.

[0114] When the input device is in the third posture, the input device is in a sleep mode and does not respond to the operation of the trigger input structure. The third posture can be used as a storage mode posture.

[0115] Figure 6 is another structural diagram of an input device provided in an embodiment of the present application, which may include the following structures: a first body 601, a second body 602 and a transmission module, the transmission module is arranged in the first body / the second body, which is not shown in the schematic diagram. Figure 6 A group of sockets and a group of grooves are outlined with dotted lines.

[0116] The first surface 6011 of the first body 601 is provided with a probe 6012 of a specific interface, the first surface 6021 of the second body 602 is provided with a socket 6022 matching the probe, and the first surface of the second body is also provided with a groove 6023 for accommodating the probe;

[0117] When the input device is in the first posture, the probe 6012 is connected to the socket 6022, and the first body and the second body are electrically connected;

[0118] When the input device is in the third posture, the groove 6023 accommodates the probe 6012 .

[0119] The accommodating spaces of the groove and the socket are the same, so that the input device can accommodate the probe respectively when the input device is in different postures.

[0120] In a possible implementation, the interface may be a pogo pin, and the number of probes on the first body may be set according to actual conditions, and is not limited in the present application.

[0121] The probes may be arranged in a row and in a non-central area of ​​the first surface, so that when the input device is in different postures, the probes correspond to different positions in the second body, and correspondingly, the sockets and grooves are arranged correspondingly at the different positions.

[0122] Figure 7 This is another structural schematic diagram of an input device provided in an embodiment of the present application, which may include the following structures: a first body 701, a second body 702 and a transmission module, wherein the transmission module is disposed in the first body / second body, which is not shown in the schematic diagram.

[0123] For the explanation of the structure and connection method of the first body and the second body, please refer to the explanation in the aforementioned embodiment.

[0124] The first surface 7011 of the first body 701 is provided with a trigger element 7012, and the trigger element generates second information based on the input device switching from the first posture to the second posture;

[0125] When the input device is in the first posture, the contact area between the first surface of the first body and the first surface of the second body meets the preset value; when the input device is in the second posture, the contact area between the first surface of the first body and the first surface of the second body does not meet the preset value.

[0126] Among them, the preset value is a value used to define whether the contact area between the first surface of the first body and the first surface of the second body is large. If the contact area meets the preset value, it indicates that the first body and the second body are in contact with most of the first surface. If the contact area does not meet the preset value, it indicates that the first body and the second body are in contact with only a small part of the first surface.

[0127] The change of the input device between the first posture and the second posture is achieved by changing the relative positions of the first body and the second body, specifically, by changing the contact area of ​​the first surfaces of the two bodies.

[0128] When the input device is in the first posture, the first surface of the first body is almost completely in contact with the first surface of the second body; when the input device is in the second posture, the first surface of the first body is in contact with the first surface of the second body only in an area close to one edge.

[0130] The first surface 8011 of the first body 801 is provided with a trigger element 8012 .

[0131] In which, the trigger element 8012 is set at the first position of the first surface; the trigger element is used to detect the relative position change between the first body and the second body, and second information is generated based on the relative position change from the first relative position to the second relative position; when the input device is in a first posture, the first position of the first surface is in contact with the first surface of the second body, and the first body and the second body are in a first relative position; when the input device is in a second posture, the first position of the first surface is not in contact with the first surface of the second body, and the first body and the second body are in a second relative position.

[0132] In a possible implementation, when the first position contacts the first surface of the second body, the trigger element generates a high level, and when the first position does not contact the first surface of the second body, the trigger element generates a low level.

[0133] In one possible implementation, the trigger element can be used to detect the relative position of the first body and the second body, and generate second information based on the change from the first relative position to the second relative position; when the input device is in a first posture, the first body and the second body are in a first relative position; when the input device is in a second posture, the first body and the second body are in a second relative position.

[0134] The input device can detect whether the first body is in contact with the second body in the second posture or detect the relative position relationship between the first body and the second body, so as to generate the second information by utilizing the contact situation or the relative position change situation.

[0135] In a possible implementation, the trigger element may generate different second information according to different relative positions of the first body and the second body.

[0136] In a possible implementation, the trigger element may be a Hall sensor to detect the relative position relationship between the first body and the second body, and trigger different functions and generate different second information according to different relative position relationships.
