[0031] Example:

[0032] See also Figure 1 to Figure 4 , the utility model provides a technical solution:

[0033] A display screen controller for preventing myopia comprises: four groups of detection devices 1, an analysis device 2, and a control device.

[0034] The detection devices 1 are all hollow structures, with two identical sensor units 11 arranged inside. A flexible plastic clip is arranged on one side of the detection device 1, which is used to clamp on the four edges of the display screen for fixing, so that no matter from which direction the user approaches the display screen, the detection device 1 at the corresponding position can detect it, which has the effect of increasing the detection range. The sensor unit 11 can adopt a Sharp GP2Y0A21YK0F series infrared distance sensor, which can measure the distance range between 10cm and 80cm, has high accuracy and fast response speed. The infrared distance sensor is electrically connected to the analysis device 2 through a signal line, and is used to measure the distance between the user and the display screen, and convert it into an electrical signal and send it to the analysis device 2.

[0035] A clamp is provided on the lower side of the detection device 1 and the analysis device 2, and the clamp includes a fixed plate 31 and a movable plate 32. The fixed plate 31 is fixedly connected to the detection device 1 and the lower side of the external shell 21, and two guide rods 33 are fixedly connected to one side of the fixed plate 31. The guide rods 33 pass through the movable plate 32 and are slidably connected to the movable plate 32. A threaded rod 34 is also provided between the two guide rods 33, and a smooth end of the threaded rod 34 is rotatably connected to the fixed plate 31. A threaded hole is provided in the middle of the movable plate, and the threaded rod 34 passes through the threaded hole and is threadedly connected to the movable plate.

[0036] In this step, the detection device 1 can be set as a plastic shell with a clamp. By rotating the threaded rod 34, the threaded rod 34 can drive the movable plate 32 to slide along the guide rod 33 in a threaded motion, thereby clamping the edge of the display screen. A flexible sponge pad can also be set on the inner side of the fixed plate 31 and the movable plate 32 to avoid scratching the edge of the display screen due to excessive clamping. It is used to fix the two sets of sensor units 11, play a supporting and protective role, and prevent the sensor units 11 from shaking during measurement, resulting in reduced measurement effect. The design of the flexible plastic clamp makes the controller suitable for display screens of various sizes, expanding the market application range of the product. The basic principle of the infrared ranging sensor is to emit infrared light. When the infrared beam encounters an object, it will be reflected back and received by the infrared receiver (usually a photodiode or photoresistor) in the infrared ranging sensor. The receiver converts the optical signal into an electrical signal, which is then processed by the circuit inside the sensor. This circuit analyzes the intensity and time delay of the signal to calculate the distance between the object and the sensor. As the object approaches the sensor, the intensity of the reflected infrared beam increases. This is because the propagation path of the light beam becomes shorter and the energy loss is reduced, so more light energy is captured by the receiver. In other words, when the user approaches the display screen, the electrical signal output by the sensor unit 11 will also be enhanced.

[0037] The analysis device 2 includes an external shell 21 and a working circuit 22. The working circuit 22 is installed in the external shell 21 by being integrated on a PCB board. The external shell 21 is used to support and protect the working circuit 22. A flexible plastic clip is also provided on one side of the external shell 21 for fixing it on the top of the display screen. The working circuit 22 is used to detect the electrical signals of the two groups of sensor units 11 in each group of detection devices 1. When both groups of sensor units 11 output a high level, a high level is sent to the control device.

[0038] The working circuit 22 comprises:

[0039] Eight groups of A / D conversion modules, wherein the A / D conversion modules can adopt 8-bit analog-to-digital converters of the ADC0804LCN model, are arranged one-to-one with the sensor units 11 and electrically connected, and are used to perform digital-to-analog conversion on the electrical signals output by the sensor units 11. By separately setting an A / D conversion module for each group of sensor units 11, signal interference can be reduced and false alarms and the like can be avoided.

[0040] Eight groups of voltage comparison modules, the voltage comparison modules are set one by one with the A / D conversion modules, the voltage comparison modules can use a voltage comparator of model LM339, the two input ends are respectively connected to the output end of the A / D conversion module and the reference voltage end preset by the user, the reference voltage is Vp, and the output end is electrically connected to the logic module. When the signal voltage after A / D conversion is higher or lower than the reference voltage, the voltage comparator will output the corresponding logic level (high or low), and this logic level is then sent to the logic module for further processing.

[0041] Four groups of logic modules, each group of logic modules is set corresponding to the two groups of sensor units 11 in each group of detection devices 1, and is used to detect the electrical signals of the two groups of sensor units 11. When the two groups of sensor units 11 both output high level, the logic module outputs high level, otherwise it outputs low level.

[0042] The logic module includes an XNOR gate and an AND gate, which can respectively adopt an XNOR gate chip of model 74HC86 and an AND gate chip of model 74HC08. The electrical signals of the two groups of sensor units 11 pass through the A / D module and the voltage comparison module, and then are electrically connected to the two input ends of the XNOR gate respectively. The output end of the XNOR gate is electrically connected to one of the input ends of the AND gate, and the other input end of the AND gate is electrically connected to any input end of the XNOR gate. The output end of the AND gate is electrically connected to the data analysis module.

[0043] The logic module also includes an indicator light, one end of which is electrically connected to the output end of the XNOR gate, and the other end of which is grounded.

[0044] A data analysis module is electrically connected to the four groups of logic modules and the driving end of the relay, and uses a microcontroller of model ATmega328P. The microcontroller has sufficient processing power to analyze the output of the logic module and control the driving end of the relay. The data analysis module is used to output a high level to turn on the driving end of the relay to disconnect the relay when the two groups of sensor units 11 in any logic module output a high level at the same time.

[0045] The display screen controller also includes a power supply module, which uses an LM2596 adjustable buck regulator and has a buck circuit inside, which is used to connect to an external power supply and supply energy to the entire display screen controller after stepping down the external power supply.

[0046] The control device is a relay with a normally closed contact. The relay is arranged between the display screen power supply and the external power supply, and is used to disconnect the connection between the display screen power supply and the external power supply when the working circuit 22 sends a high level. The relay can be a normally closed relay of model G5NB-140T DC5. When the relay is not powered on, its normally closed contact remains in a closed state, allowing current to pass through, thereby keeping the display screen power supply connected. When the control circuit sends a control signal through the microcontroller ATmega328P to energize the relay coil, the normally closed contact is disconnected, and the display screen power supply is cut off. In order to achieve this function, an NPN transistor can be used as the driving end of the relay for driving, one end of the relay is connected to the output end of the power supply module, and the other end is connected to the collector of the NPN transistor. The emitter of the NPN transistor is grounded, and the base is connected to the data analysis module. When the data analysis module outputs a high level, the NPN transistor is turned on, and the relay is pulled in so that the normally closed contact is disconnected, thereby cutting off the display screen power supply. Since using the NPN transistor as the driving end of the relay is a commonly used technical means in this field, it is not repeated here.

[0047] It is not difficult to see from the above circuit connection that in normal use, it is divided into the following situations:

[0048] When the user's face is not close to the display screen, both sets of sensor units 11 output low level, the two input ends of the OR gate are low level, so the output end is high level, and the indicator light is on to indicate normal operation. The input end levels of the AND gate are one high and one low, so the output end is low level, the relay is closed, and the display screen is on.

[0049] When the user's face is close to the display screen, both sets of sensor units 11 output high level, the two input ends of the OR gate are two high levels, so the output end is high level, the indicator light is on, indicating normal operation, the input end level of the AND gate is two high levels, so the output end is high level, the relay is disconnected, and the display screen is on.

[0050] When the indicator light is off, it is considered that an abnormality has occurred, and the levels of the two input terminals of the OR gate are one high and one low. At this time, it can be checked whether there are objects such as water cups and paper boxes blocking the display screen corresponding to the group of detection devices 1. If there is no obstruction, or the indicator light is still off after the water cups, paper boxes and other objects are removed, it is considered that the sensor unit 11 of the group of detection devices 1 has a fault.

[0051] Since cups and paper boxes are usually placed on both sides of the display screen on the computer desk, these items are much lower than the user's face. In the detection device 1 installed on both sides of the display screen, the lower sensor units 11 are easily blocked by these items and output high voltage. If only the detection result of a single sensor unit 11 is used as the judgment basis, it is easy to directly turn off the display screen when a lower sensor unit 11 is blocked, that is, a false alarm is generated, which greatly affects the user experience. Therefore, the method of using two groups of sensor units 11 for joint detection can reduce the risk of false alarms.

[0052] It is understandable that in order to observe whether the equipment is working properly, the indicator light generally needs to be always on. In the present utility model, in order to facilitate the user to directly observe the indicator light at a glance, four groups of indicator lights are integrated on the analysis device 2, rather than being dispersedly arranged on the detection device 1 on the four sides of the display screen. At the same time, considering that when integrated together, too many indicator lights will not only easily distract the user's attention due to excessive brightness, but also make it difficult for the user to distinguish the position of the sensor unit 11 corresponding to each indicator light. Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, a method of using a group of indicator lights corresponding to a group of detection devices 1 is used, rather than using a group of indicator lights corresponding to a group of sensor units 11. A group of indicator lights can comprehensively reflect the working conditions of the two sensor units 11, which is not only convenient for users to observe intuitively at a glance, but also can more easily identify the corresponding relationship between the indicator lights and the detection device 1, thereby improving the user experience. At the same time, four groups of indicator lights that are always on are also less power-efficient and more energy-efficient than eight groups of indicator lights.

[0053] In summary, the utility model realizes accurate monitoring of the distance between the user and the display screen by arranging four groups of detection devices around the display screen, each group including two groups of sensor units, and adopting infrared ranging technology. The design of this dual sensor unit greatly reduces the possibility of false alarms and missed alarms, and improves the accuracy of monitoring. When it is detected that the user is too close to the display screen, the control device can quickly cut off the power supply of the display screen, effectively preventing the occurrence of myopia. At the same time, the integrated indicator light design is more convenient for users to observe, so that users can intuitively understand the working status of the device. These improvements not only improve the functionality and reliability of the display screen controller, but also improve the user experience.

[0054] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0055] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
