Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of near-eye display devices, and in particular to a frame module and smart glasses. Background Art
[0002] Smart glasses include AR (Augmented Reality) glasses and VR (Virtual Reality) glasses, which can provide users with many convenient functions. For example, users can instruct the smart glasses to perform related functions by touching or pressing buttons set on the smart glasses.
[0003] The touch detection of smart glasses is mainly carried out through electrodes integrated on the circuit board. Specifically, when the user's finger touches or approaches the electrode, a tiny capacitor is formed between the electrode and the finger, causing the capacitance of the electrode to change. The control component can determine whether the user triggers the electrode and the position of the user's touch based on the electrical signal collected from the electrode, thereby instructing the smart glasses to perform related functions.
[0004] However, in smart glasses, the circuit board is generally glued inside the frame shell, and the electrodes integrated in the circuit board will be blocked by the frame shell when detecting touch, resulting in insufficient sensitivity in the detection of touch behavior. Similarly, the communication unit integrated in the circuit board is also limited in its communication function due to the obstruction of the frame shell.
[0005] On the other hand, currently electrodes are integrated into circuit boards such as FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit), and FPC is often attached to the inside of the frame shell. This form of attachment has structural risks such as loose fitting or aging due to long-term use, and thermal expansion of FPC will also cause the touch capacitance value of the electrode to change, affecting the detection and judgment of touch behavior by the capacitive touch chip.

[0039] The lens is connected and adapted to the frame module;
[0040] The display module is arranged on the frame module and is used to send a light signal to the lens so that the lens displays a target image corresponding to the light signal.
[0041] It can be seen from the technical solution provided in the present application that the first frame module provided in the embodiment of the present application includes: a frame mechanism, which is used to connect and adapt with the lens and provide wearing support for the frame module, and the frame mechanism includes a frame shell and a accommodating cavity formed in the frame shell; a trigger detection mechanism, the trigger detection mechanism is connected to the frame shell and forms a detection surface on the surface side of the frame shell, wherein when the target object triggers the detection position on the detection surface, the trigger detection mechanism generates a detection signal corresponding to the detection position; a control component, which is arranged in the accommodating cavity and is electrically connected to the trigger detection mechanism, and the control component is used to respond to the detection signal to perform an operation matching the detection position.
[0042] Based on the detection surface formed by the trigger detection mechanism on the surface side of the frame shell, the trigger detection mechanism can sensitively detect the user's touch behavior, thereby improving the sensitivity and accuracy of touch detection.
[0043] The second type of frame module provided in the embodiment of the present application includes: a frame mechanism, which is used to connect and adapt with the lens and provide wearing support for the frame module, and the frame mechanism includes a frame shell and a accommodating cavity formed in the frame shell; a trigger detection mechanism, which is connected to the frame shell, and the trigger detection mechanism forms a detection surface on at least one of the surface side and the inner side of the frame shell, wherein when the detection position on the detection surface is triggered, the trigger detection mechanism generates a detection signal corresponding to the detection position; a communication mechanism, including a communication circuit unit arranged on the surface side of the frame shell; a control component, the control component is arranged in the accommodating cavity and is electrically connected to the control component and the trigger detection mechanism; wherein the control component is used to respond to the detection signal to perform an operation matching the detection position, and is used to perform a preset communication function through the communication circuit unit.
[0044] Because the communication circuit unit is arranged on the surface side of the frame shell, the barrier restriction of the frame shell on the communication circuit unit is effectively solved, thereby improving the communication quality between the smart glasses and external devices and the communication quality between the first communication unit and the second communication unit located on the opposite sides of the frame shell in the smart glasses.
[0045] The third type of frame module provided in the embodiment of the present application includes: a frame mechanism, which is used to connect and adapt with the lens and provide wearing support for the frame module, and the frame mechanism includes a frame shell and a accommodating cavity formed in the frame shell; a trigger detection mechanism, including a detection electrode arranged on at least one of the surface side and the inner side of the frame shell, when the detection position on the detection surface of the detection electrode is triggered, the trigger detection mechanism generates a detection signal corresponding to the detection position; a control component, which is arranged in the accommodating cavity and forms an electrical connection with the trigger detection mechanism, and the control component is used to respond to the detection signal to perform an operation matching the detection position; wherein the detection electrode is a metal electrode laser engraved, printed or embedded on the surface side of the frame shell.
[0046] Compared with the prior art arrangement of integrating electrodes into a circuit board and then gluing the circuit board to the inside of a frame shell, the detection electrode in the embodiment of the present application is a metal electrode that is laser engraved, printed or embedded on the surface of the frame shell, which effectively reduces the weight and volume of the frame mechanism, reduces structural risks such as loose fitting or aging due to long-term use, and avoids thermal expansion of the circuit board, detection electrode and glue under rising temperature, which may cause deviations in the capacitance of the detection electrode, especially avoids capacitance deviations caused by residual heat left after a user's finger touches the frame shell.
[0047] Furthermore, in order to protect the surface of the frame mechanism and improve the durability of the frame mechanism, paint is generally sprayed on the surface of the frame mechanism. However, the prior art adopts a method of integrating electrodes into a circuit board. Since the circuit board and the glue both have a certain thickness, if the circuit board is glued to the surface of the frame shell, the paint sprayed on the surface of the frame mechanism cannot cover the frame mechanism and the circuit board at the same time. In the frame module provided in the embodiment of the present application, the detection electrode is a metal electrode that is laser engraved, printed or embedded on the surface of the frame shell. Even if the detection electrode is set on the surface of the frame shell, the protruding thickness of the detection electrode on the surface of the frame shell can be controlled within a smaller range, so that the paint sprayed on the surface of the frame mechanism covers the frame shell and the detection surface at the same time. On the one hand, the weight and volume of the frame mechanism are reduced, and the smoothness and consistency of the external contour of the frame mechanism are improved. On the other hand, setting the detection surface on the surface of the frame shell can sensitively detect the user's touch behavior, thereby improving the sensitivity and accuracy of touch detection.

Therefore, the protection scope of the present application shall be based on the protection scope of the claims.
[0060] See also Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a frame module 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. Figure 2 A schematic structural diagram of a frame module 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. Figure 3 A schematic structural diagram of another eyeglass frame module 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application.
[0061] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a frame module 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application at least includes: a frame mechanism 10, a trigger detection mechanism 20 and a control component 30. The components of the frame module 100 are described in detail below.
[0062] Specifically, the frame mechanism 10 is used to connect and adapt with the lens 200 and provide wearing support for the frame module 100, and the frame mechanism 10 includes a frame shell 11 and a receiving cavity 12 formed in the frame shell 11. The trigger detection mechanism 20 includes a detection electrode 21 disposed on at least one of the surface side and the inner side of the frame shell 11, wherein when the detection position on the detection surface 211 of the detection electrode 21 is triggered, the trigger detection mechanism 20 generates a detection signal corresponding to the detection position. The control component 30 is disposed in the receiving cavity 12 and is electrically connected to the trigger detection mechanism 20, and the control component 30 is used to respond to the detection signal and perform an operation matching the detection position.
[0063] Specifically, the frame module 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to smart glasses 400, including but not limited to at least one of AR glasses and VR glasses. The detection signal generated by the trigger detection mechanism 20 is related to the triggered detection position on the detection surface 211, and the control component 30 can be used to execute a corresponding function in response to the detection signal.
[0064] Furthermore, at least two trigger detection mechanisms 20 may be provided in the frame module 100, and the detection surface 211 formed by each of the at least two trigger detection mechanisms 20 may be located at different positions on the surface and / or inner side of the frame shell 11. Accordingly, when any trigger detection mechanism 20 is triggered (the detection position on the detection surface 211 is triggered), the trigger detection mechanism 20 generates a detection signal, and the control component 30 may execute a function corresponding to the triggered trigger detection mechanism 20 in response to the detection signal.
[0065] By way of example, the operations that the control component 30 can perform include but are not limited to at least one of the following functions: turning on at least part of the circuit in the control unit, turning off at least part of the circuit in the control unit, turning on the display mechanism in the smart glasses 400 (the display mechanism includes but is not limited to an optical machine), turning off the display mechanism in the smart glasses 400, adjusting the parameters of the display mechanism, and the like.
[0066] Thus, the user can give instructions to the control component 30 of the smart glasses 400 by touch, thereby conveniently controlling the smart glasses 400 to perform corresponding operations.
[0067] In some embodiments, the detection electrode 21 is a metal electrode that is laser engraved, printed, or embedded on at least one of the surface and the inner side of the lens frame housing 11 .
[0068] Exemplarily, the process used for laser engraving the detection electrode 21 on the frame shell 11 may be LDS (Laser Direct Structuring). Specifically, LDS is to perform laser activation on at least one of the surface and the inner side of the frame shell 11 to generate a microscopic rough surface with high adhesion, and then deposit and infiltrate the laser-processed detection electrode 21 onto the surface. Preferably, the detection electrode 21 is made of a metallized material with high adhesion.
[0069] Exemplarily, the process used for printing the detection electrode 21 on the frame housing 11 may be at least one of PDS (Print Direct Structuring) and LRP (Laser Restructuring Printing). Specifically, PDS is a process for printing circuits on the frame housing 11 with silver paste, while LRP is a process for applying conductive silver paste to the surface of the frame housing 11 at high speed and accurately through a three-dimensional printing process to form a three-dimensional circuit shape, and then three-dimensionally controlled laser trimming is used to form a high-precision circuit interconnection structure.
[0070] Exemplarily, the detection electrode 21 may be embedded in the frame housing 11 by: providing a mounting groove corresponding to the detection electrode 21 on at least one of the surface and the inner side of the frame housing 11 , and embedding the detection electrode 21 in the mounting groove.
[0071] Compared with the prior art arrangement of integrating electrodes into a circuit board and then gluing the circuit board to the inside of the frame shell 11, the detection electrode 21 in the embodiment of the present application is a metal electrode that is laser engraved, printed or embedded on the surface of the frame shell 11, which effectively reduces the weight and volume of the frame mechanism 10, reduces structural risks such as loose fitting or aging due to long-term use, and avoids thermal expansion of the circuit board, the detection electrode 21 and the glue under increased temperature, which may cause deviations in the capacitance of the detection electrode 21, especially avoiding capacitance deviations caused by residual heat left after a user's finger touches the frame shell 11.
[0072] Furthermore, in order to protect the surface of the frame mechanism 10 and improve the durability of the frame mechanism 10, paint is generally sprayed on the surface of the frame mechanism 10. However, in the prior art, the electrode is integrated into the circuit board. Since the circuit board and the glue have a certain thickness, if the circuit board is glued to the surface of the frame shell 11, the paint sprayed on the surface of the frame mechanism 10 cannot cover the frame mechanism 10 and the circuit board at the same time. In the embodiment of the present application, the detection electrode 21 of the frame module 100 is laser engraved, printed or embedded on the surface of the frame shell 11. Even if the detection electrode 21 is arranged on the surface side of the frame shell 11, the protruding thickness of the detection electrode 21 on the surface side of the frame shell 11 can be controlled within a smaller range, so that the paint sprayed on the surface side of the frame mechanism 10 covers the frame shell 11 and the detection surface 211 at the same time. On the one hand, the weight and volume of the frame mechanism 10 are reduced, and the smoothness and consistency of the external contour of the frame mechanism 10 are improved. On the other hand, arranging the detection surface 211 on the surface side of the frame shell 11 can sensitively detect the user's touch behavior, thereby improving the sensitivity and accuracy of touch detection.
[0073] like Figures 2 to 3 As shown, it should be understood that the detection electrode 21 can be arranged on at least one side of the surface side and the inner side of the lens frame housing 11. Figure 2 In the cross section shown, the detection electrode 21 is arranged on the surface side of the lens frame housing 11. Figure 3 In the cross section shown, the detection electrode 21 is arranged on the inner side of the lens frame housing 11. For another example, part of the detection electrode 21 can be arranged on the inner side of the lens frame housing 11, and the other part of the detection electrode 21 can be arranged on the outer side of the lens frame housing 11.
[0074] In some embodiments, the trigger detection mechanism 20 is connected to the lens frame housing 11 and forms a detection surface 211 (eg, Figure 3 ), wherein when the target object triggers a detection position on the detection surface 211, the trigger detection mechanism 20 generates a detection signal corresponding to the detection position.
[0075] Based on the detection surface 211 formed by the trigger detection mechanism 20 on the surface side of the frame housing 11 , the trigger detection mechanism 20 can sensitively detect the user's touch behavior, thereby improving the sensitivity and accuracy of touch detection.
[0076] In some embodiments, the trigger detection mechanism 20 includes a detection electrode 21 and an electrical connector 22, wherein the detection electrode 21 is disposed on the surface of the lens frame housing 11 and forms a detection surface 211, and the electrical connector 22 is penetrated through the lens frame housing 11 to connect the detection electrode 21 and the control component 30;
[0077] When the target object moves to a trigger position 212 opposite to the detection position, the detection electrode 21 triggers to generate a detection signal corresponding to the detection position, and transmits the detection signal to the control component 30 through the electrical connection member 22 .
[0078] Specifically, the trigger position 212 relative to the detection position may be: a position located in a direction away from the accommodating cavity 12 from the detection position and within a preset distance range from the detection position. More specifically, the target object may be a finger or other body part of the user. When the finger or other body part of the user touches or approaches the detection position, a tiny capacitor is formed between the detection electrode 21 and the finger, causing the capacitance of the detection electrode 21 to change. The control component 30 may determine whether the user triggers the electrode and the position touched by the user based on the electrical signal collected from the detection electrode 21, thereby instructing the smart glasses 400 to perform related functions.
[0079] Exemplarily, the electrical connector 22 may be a spring or other conductive element, which is inserted through the frame housing 11, and one end of which is connected to the control assembly 30, and the other end of which is in contact with the detection electrode 21. Exemplarily, the control assembly 30 includes at least one circuit board, one end of the electrical connector 22 is welded to the circuit board, and the other end of the electrical connector 22 is in contact with the detection electrode 21.
[0080] It should be understood that the reed is retractable, and using the reed as the electrical connector 22 facilitates the installation of the frame module.
[0081] See also Figure 4 , Figure 4 is a structural schematic diagram of another eyeglass frame module 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application, and Figure 3 and Figure 4 Schematic diagrams of the isolation protection unit 23 at different viewing angles.
[0082] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the trigger detection mechanism 20 also includes an isolation protection unit 23 and a grounding connector 24. The isolation protection unit 23 is arranged on the surface side of the frame shell 11 at a circumferential interval corresponding to the detection electrode 21. The grounding connector 24 is penetrated through the frame shell 11, and one end of the grounding connector 24 is connected to the isolation protection unit 23 and the other end is connected to the ground end of the control component 30.
[0083] Exemplarily, the isolation protection unit 23 is made of conductive metal and is connected to the ground terminal of the control component 30 via a ground connector 24 .
[0084] Exemplarily, the grounding connector 24 can be a spring or other conductive element, which is inserted into the frame housing 11, and one end of which is connected to the control component 30, and the other end of which is abutted against the detection electrode 21. Exemplarily, the control component 30 includes at least one circuit board, one end of the grounding connector 24 is welded to the grounding end of the circuit board, and the other end of the grounding connector 24 is abutted against the detection electrode 21.
[0085] It should be noted that the isolation protection unit 23 is provided in the circumferential direction of the corresponding detection electrode 21 to isolate and protect the detection electrode 21 , thereby improving the working stability and durability of the detection electrode 21 during touch detection.
[0086] like Figures 2 to 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the lens frame mechanism 10 further includes a protective member 13 disposed on the surface side of the lens frame housing 11 to protect the surface of the lens frame housing 11 .
[0087] like Figure 3 As shown, further, the trigger detection mechanism 20 forms a detection surface 211 at least on the surface side of the frame housing 11 , and the frame mechanism 10 also includes a protective member 13 arranged on the surface side of the frame housing 11 , and the protective member 13 at least partially covers the detection surface 211 .
[0088] Exemplarily, the protective member 13 is a paint layer 131 or a rubber sleeve detachably connected to the surface of the frame housing 11 , which is used to protect the surface of the frame mechanism 10 and improve the durability of the frame mechanism 10 .
[0089] It should be noted that in the prior art, electrodes are integrated into the circuit board. Since the circuit board and the glue both have a certain thickness, if the circuit board is glued to the surface of the frame shell 11, the paint sprayed on the surface of the frame mechanism 10 cannot cover the frame mechanism 10 and the circuit board at the same time. In the frame module 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application, the detection electrode 21 is a metal electrode that is laser engraved, printed or embedded on the surface of the frame shell 11. Even if the detection electrode 21 is set on the surface of the frame shell 11, the protruding thickness of the detection electrode 21 on the surface of the frame shell 11 can be controlled within a smaller range, so that the paint sprayed on the surface of the frame mechanism 10 covers the frame shell 11 and the detection surface 211 at the same time. On the one hand, the weight and volume of the frame mechanism 10 are reduced, and the smoothness and consistency of the external contour of the frame mechanism 10 are improved.
[0090] See also Figure 5 , Figure 5 A schematic structural diagram of the frame housing 11 in the frame module 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application.
[0091] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the frame housing 11 at least includes a front frame portion 111 for connecting and adapting with the lens 200 and a temple portion 112 connected to at least one side of the front frame portion 111;
[0092] The accommodating cavity 12 is formed at one end of the temple portion 112 away from the front frame portion 111 , and the detection surface 211 is disposed on the surface side of the one end of the temple portion 112 away from the front frame portion 111 .
[0093] It should be understood that the accommodating cavity 12 is arranged at the end of the temple portion 112 away from the front frame portion 111, that is, the control component 30 accommodated in the accommodating cavity 12 and the trigger detection mechanism 20 associated with the control component 30 are also arranged at the end of the temple portion 112 away from the front frame portion 111, which is beneficial for the overall center of gravity of the frame module 100 to shift toward the direction of the temple portion 112, thereby improving wearing comfort.

[0098] The control component 30 is used to respond to the detection signal to perform an operation matching the detection position, and is used to perform a preset communication function through the communication circuit unit 51 .
[0099] Specifically, the control component 30 can communicate and interact with the external device through the communication circuit unit 51, or different control components 30 on opposite sides of the frame housing 11 can communicate and interact through the communication circuit unit 51 connected on the same side.
[0100] In some embodiments, the communication circuit unit 51 is a metal circuit that is laser engraved, printed, or embedded on the surface of the frame housing 11 .
[0101] It should be understood that the process of setting the communication circuit unit 51 can refer to the above-mentioned process description of setting the detection electrode 21 in the above-mentioned embodiment, and will not be described in detail here.
[0102] In some embodiments, the communication circuit unit 51 is disposed on the surface side of the frame housing 11 and is electrically connected to the control component 30 .
[0103] Specifically, when the communication circuit unit 51 is disposed on the surface side of the frame housing 11 , the communication circuit unit 51 can be electrically connected to the control assembly 30 via a connector, such as a spring, that is penetrated through the frame housing 11 .
[0104] Because the communication circuit unit 51 is arranged on the surface side of the frame shell 11, the blocking restriction of the frame shell 11 on the communication circuit unit 51 is effectively solved, thereby improving the communication quality between the smart glasses 400 and external devices and the communication quality between the communication units located on the opposite sides of the frame shell 11 in the smart glasses 400.
[0105] See also Figure 7 , Figure 7 A schematic diagram of the structure of a frame module 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application.
[0106] like Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the frame module 100 further includes a first display mechanism 301 and a second display mechanism 302 disposed on opposite sides of the frame housing 11 corresponding to the lens 200, and the first display mechanism 301 and the second display mechanism 302 are used to respectively output optical signals to different positions of the lens 200 so that the lens 200 displays a target image corresponding to the optical signal;
[0107] The control assembly 30 includes a first control unit 31 and a second control unit 32 disposed on opposite sides of the frame housing 11, the communication circuit unit 51 includes a first communication unit 511 and a second communication unit 512 disposed on opposite sides of the frame housing 11, the first control unit 31 is electrically connected to the first display mechanism 301 and the first communication unit 511, and the second control unit 32 is electrically connected to the second display mechanism 302 and the second communication unit 512;
[0108] The first control unit 31 is used to control the first display mechanism 301 to output a light signal, and the second control unit 32 is used to control the second display mechanism 302 to output a light signal. The first control unit 31 and the second control unit 32 can communicate and interact via the first communication unit 511 and the second communication unit 512 .
[0109] Exemplarily, the first display mechanism 301 and the second display mechanism 302 can be different optical machines, the lens 200 includes a first lens 210 and a second lens 220 connected to opposite sides of the frame shell 11, and the first display mechanism 301 is used to output a light signal to the first lens 210, and the second display mechanism 302 is used to output a light signal to the second lens 220, so as to display a target image corresponding to the light signal on the first lens 210 and the second lens 220.
[0110] The first control unit 31 and the second control unit 32 control the first display mechanism 301 and the second display mechanism 302 respectively, and enable the first control unit 31 and the second control unit 32 to interact with the second communication unit 512 through the first communication unit 511, so as to realize the interaction of the images to be displayed and the time synchronization of the output light signal.
[0111] As mentioned above, the various implementations described in the embodiments of the present application can be combined to obtain at least three types of frame modules 100 to be provided in the embodiments of the present application.
[0112] The first type of frame module 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application includes: a frame mechanism 10, which is used to connect and adapt with the lens 200 and provide wearing support for the frame module 100, and the frame mechanism 10 includes a frame shell 11 and a accommodating cavity 12 formed in the frame shell 11; a trigger detection mechanism 20, the trigger detection mechanism 20 is connected to the frame shell 11 and forms a detection surface 211 on the surface side of the frame shell 11, wherein when the target object triggers the detection position on the detection surface 211, the trigger detection mechanism 20 generates a detection signal corresponding to the detection position; a control component 30, which is arranged in the accommodating cavity 12 and is electrically connected to the trigger detection mechanism 20, and the control component 30 is used to respond to the detection signal to perform an operation matching the detection position.
[0113] Based on the detection surface 211 formed by the trigger detection mechanism 20 on the surface side of the frame housing 11 , the trigger detection mechanism 20 can sensitively detect the user's touch behavior, thereby improving the sensitivity and accuracy of touch detection.
[0114] The second frame module 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application includes: a frame mechanism 10, which is used to connect and adapt with the lens 200 and provide wearing support for the frame module 100, and the frame mechanism 10 includes a frame shell 11 and a accommodating cavity 12 formed in the frame shell 11; a trigger detection mechanism 20, which is connected to the frame shell 11, and the trigger detection mechanism 20 forms a detection surface 211 on at least one of the surface side and the inner side of the frame shell 11, wherein when the detection position on the detection surface 211 is triggered, the trigger detection mechanism 20 generates a detection signal corresponding to the detection position; a communication mechanism 50, including a communication circuit unit 51 arranged on the surface side of the frame shell 11; a control component 30, the control component 30 is arranged in the accommodating cavity 12 and forms an electrical connection between the control component 30 and the trigger detection mechanism 20; wherein the control component 30 is used to respond to the detection signal to perform an operation matching the detection position, and is used to perform a preset communication function through the communication circuit unit 51.
[0115] Because the communication circuit unit 51 is arranged on the surface side of the frame shell 11, the blocking restriction of the frame shell 11 on the communication circuit unit 51 is effectively solved, thereby improving the communication quality between the smart glasses 400 and external devices, as well as the communication quality between the first communication unit 511 and the second communication unit 512 located on opposite sides of the frame shell 11 in the smart glasses 400.
[0116] The third type of frame module 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application includes: a frame mechanism 10, which is used to connect and adapt with the lens 200 and provide wearing support for the frame module 100, and the frame mechanism 10 includes a frame shell 11 and a accommodating cavity 12 formed in the frame shell 11; a trigger detection mechanism 20, including a detection electrode 21 arranged on at least one of the surface side and the inner side of the frame shell 11, when the detection position on the detection surface 211 of the detection electrode 21 is triggered, the trigger detection mechanism 20 generates a detection signal corresponding to the detection position; a control component 30, which is arranged in the accommodating cavity 12 and forms an electrical connection with the trigger detection mechanism 20, and the control component 30 is used to respond to the detection signal to perform an operation matching the detection position; wherein the detection electrode 21 is a metal electrode laser engraved, printed or embedded on the surface side of the frame shell 11.
[0117] Compared with the prior art arrangement of integrating electrodes into a circuit board and then gluing the circuit board to the inside of the frame shell 11, the detection electrode 21 in the embodiment of the present application is a metal electrode that is laser engraved, printed or embedded on the surface of the frame shell 11, which effectively reduces the weight and volume of the frame mechanism 10, reduces structural risks such as loose fitting or aging due to long-term use, and avoids thermal expansion of the circuit board, the detection electrode 21 and the glue under increased temperature, which may cause deviations in the capacitance of the detection electrode 21, especially avoiding capacitance deviations caused by residual heat left after a user's finger touches the frame shell 11.
[0118] Furthermore, in order to protect the surface of the frame mechanism 10 and improve the durability of the frame mechanism 10, paint is generally sprayed on the surface of the frame mechanism 10. However, in the prior art, the electrode is integrated into the circuit board. Since the circuit board and the glue have a certain thickness, if the circuit board is glued to the surface of the frame shell 11, the paint sprayed on the surface of the frame mechanism 10 cannot cover the frame mechanism 10 and the circuit board at the same time. In the embodiment of the present application, the detection electrode 21 of the frame module 100 is laser engraved, printed or embedded on the surface of the frame shell 11. Even if the detection electrode 21 is arranged on the surface side of the frame shell 11, the protruding thickness of the detection electrode 21 on the surface side of the frame shell 11 can be controlled within a smaller range, so that the paint sprayed on the surface side of the frame mechanism 10 covers the frame shell 11 and the detection surface 211 at the same time. On the one hand, the weight and volume of the frame mechanism 10 are reduced, and the smoothness and consistency of the external contour of the frame mechanism 10 are improved. On the other hand, arranging the detection surface 211 on the surface side of the frame shell 11 can sensitively detect the user's touch behavior, thereby improving the sensitivity and accuracy of touch detection.
