Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of human-computer interaction, in particular to a bearing-triggered scanning and translating pen. Background Art
[0002] In the prior art, as a convenient text input device, the scanning pen is widely used in many fields such as learning and work. However, there are several problems with traditional scanning pens during use, which affect their user experience and operation convenience. For example:
[0003] 1. Complicated startup scanning: Traditional scanning pens usually require users to press a button with their thumb to start scanning. The design of this single button is not user-friendly for users with different hand shapes because the position of the button is fixed and cannot adapt to the operating habits of users with various hand shapes, resulting in inconvenient use.
[0004] 2. Operation fatigue: In scenarios where continuous scanning is required for a long time, traditional scanning pens require users to continuously press the button to maintain the scanning state. This design is not only cumbersome to operate, but also the continuous pressing of the thumb will cause operation fatigue. Especially when used for a long time, the user experience is poor.
[0005] 3. Poor applicability: Due to the fixed button position of existing scanning pens, it is difficult for users with different hand sizes to find a comfortable pressing position, which affects the universality of the product and the user's operation comfort.
[0006] To solve these problems, the industry usually improves the user experience by adding auxiliary buttons or modifying the button position. For example, adding auxiliary buttons solves the problem of complicated startup to a certain extent, but also increases the complexity of operation. Users need to be familiar with the positions and functions of multiple buttons, and the learning cost is relatively high. Or by modifying the button position, although it can adapt to users with different hand shapes to a certain extent, it still cannot completely solve the operation fatigue problem caused by long-term use, and the change in the button position is limited, making it difficult to achieve a significant improvement effect.
[0007] Therefore, how to simplify the operation process of the scanning pen, adapt to users with different hand sizes, and reduce the operation fatigue during long-term use has become the technical problem to be solved by the present utility model. Content of the Utility Model
[0008] The technical problem solved by the present utility model is to provide a bearing-triggered scanning and translating pen to solve the problems of cumbersome operation, poor applicability, and operation fatigue mentioned in the above background art in view of the defects existing in the above prior art.
[0009] To solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present utility model is as follows:
[0010] A bearing-triggered scanning and translating pen, comprising a pen body, the pen body includes a pen tip end, an installation groove is provided at the pen tip end, and a touch switch is provided at the bottom of the installation groove;
[0011] A limit groove hole for limiting a positioning rod is provided below the installation groove, and a cover plate is covered at the opening of the limit groove hole, so that the end cross-section of the limit groove hole forms a waist-shaped hole;
[0012] The positioning rod passes through the waist-shaped hole, so that one end and the other end of the positioning rod are respectively located outside the waist-shaped hole;
[0013] One side of the positioning rod is in contact with the touch switch through a pressing plate;
[0014] Bearings are respectively sleeved at one end and the other end of the positioning rod, the bearings are rotationally and cooperatively connected with the positioning rod through the inner side surfaces of the bearings, and the lower side surfaces of the bearings protrude outside the pen tip end.
[0015] As a further scheme of the present utility model, the touch switch is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the installation groove through a switch positioning plate.
[0016] As a further scheme of the present utility model, the number of the touch switches is 2.

[0018] As a further scheme of the present utility model, the upper side surface of the scanning avoidance groove is an inclined surface.
[0019] As a further scheme of the present utility model, the inclination direction of the inclined surface faces the opening direction of the scanning avoidance groove.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are:
[0021] 1. Multi-mode trigger operation: The bearing-triggered design of this application allows users to trigger scanning in two ways, pressing or rolling the bearing, and the two modes can be flexibly switched. This design greatly simplifies the user's operation process and improves the usability of the product, especially having higher adaptability in different usage scenarios.
[0022] 2. Improve operation convenience: When triggering the scan by pressing the bearing, taking advantage of the five-finger gripping characteristic of the user's hand when holding the scanning pen, the overall downward pressing becomes a natural action to trigger the scan. Compared with the existing technology where a single finger is required to press the switch, it is more in line with the ergonomic design, and the operation is more labor-saving and convenient.
[0023] 3. Optimize the long-term use experience: In the case of continuous scanning for a long time, the rolling bearing trigger scan can effectively reduce the fatigue caused by continuous single-finger pressing. The continuous scan is achieved through the overall downward movement of the five-finger grip, making the operation easier, suitable for long-term use, and improving the user experience.

Detailed implementation manners
[0042] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without making creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0043] Please refer to Figure 1—13, in the embodiment of the present utility model, a bearing-triggered scanning and translating pen includes a pen body 1. The pen body 1 includes a pen tip end 2. An installation groove 3 is provided at the pen tip end 2. A touch switch 4 is provided at the bottom of the installation groove 3. A limit groove hole for limiting a positioning rod 5 is provided below the installation groove 3. A cover plate 7 covers the opening of the limit groove hole, so that the end cross-section of the limit groove hole forms an oval hole 8. The positioning rod 5 passes through the oval hole 8, so that one end and the other end of the positioning rod 5 are respectively located outside the oval hole 8. One side portion of the positioning rod 5 contacts the touch switch 4 through a pressing plate 9. Bearings 10 are respectively sleeved on one end and the other end of the positioning rod 5. The bearings 10 are rotationally and cooperatively connected to the positioning rod 5 through the inner side surfaces of the bearings 10, and the lower side surfaces of the bearings 10 protrude outside the pen tip end 2.
[0044] The touch switch 4 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the installation groove 3 through a switch positioning plate 11. The number of the touch switches 4 is 2. The scanning and translating pen further includes a scanning component 12. The back surface 13 of the pen body 1 is provided with a scanning avoidance groove 14 near the pen tip end 2. The scanning avoidance groove 14 includes an upper side surface of the groove. The scanning component 12 is provided on the upper side surface of the scanning avoidance groove 14. The upper side surface of the scanning avoidance groove 14 is an inclined surface 15. The inclination direction of the inclined surface 15 faces the opening direction of the scanning avoidance groove 14.
[0045] In this technical solution, the adoption of bearings makes the triggering and operation smoother and easier. Through the sliding of the bearings, the positioning rod can move more smoothly, reducing the friction and resistance during operation. It not only improves the fluency of use, but also significantly reduces the fatigue of users during long-term operation, making the operation more comfortable and convenient. Compared with the traditional single-finger pressing button method, the introduction of bearings significantly improves the usability and user experience of the product, especially suitable for scenarios that require frequent or long-term scanning. In this way, users can complete the scanning task more efficiently, further enhancing the market competitiveness of the product.
[0046] Embodiment 1:
[0047] In this embodiment, the touch switch 4 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the installation groove 3 through a switch positioning plate 11 to ensure the stability and reliability of the touch switch 4 during use. The number of the touch switches 4 is 2 to provide a more sensitive and reliable triggering mechanism. The scanning and translating pen further includes a scanning component 12. The back surface 13 of the pen body 1 is provided with a scanning avoidance groove 14 near the pen tip end 2. The upper side surface of the scanning avoidance groove 14 is an inclined surface 15. The inclination direction of the inclined surface 15 faces the opening direction of the scanning avoidance groove 14. The scanning component 12 is provided on this inclined surface 15.
[0048] Application Scenario: When the user is using this scanning and translating pen, they can trigger the scanning operation simply by pressing or rolling the bearing 10 at the tip of the pen body 2. When triggering the scanning by pressing the bearing 10, the user can use the strength of the five fingers holding the scanning pen and press the pen body 1 downward as a whole to easily trigger the touch switch 4 and start scanning. This method reduces the operation steps compared with the traditional operation of pressing the button with a single finger, making the start of scanning more convenient. At the same time, it solves the problem of inconvenient use caused by the fixed button position for users with different hand shapes. Its implementation principle and control mechanism:
[0049] In the pressing mode, when the user needs to perform a short-time scanning operation, they only need to press the bearing 10 at the tip of the pen body 2. The strength of the five fingers when the user holds the scanning pen presses the pen body 1 downward as a whole, so that the positioning rod 5 presses the touch switch 4 through the pressure plate 9, thereby triggering the scanning operation. Specifically in terms of circuit control, when the touch switch 4 is pressed, the internal scanning module is triggered to start scanning through the method of closing the circuit known to those of ordinary skill in the art. This method simplifies the start operation and is more convenient than the traditional single-finger pressing of the button, and is suitable for scenarios where quick start and stop of scanning are required.
[0050] In the rolling mode, when the user needs to perform a long-time scanning, they can roll the bearing 10 at the tip of the pen body 2. By rolling the bearing 10, the positioning rod 5 continuously presses the touch switch 4 to keep the scanning going. Specifically in terms of control, when the rolling of the bearing 10 makes the positioning rod 5 continuously press the touch switch 4, the circuit can continuously maintain the closed state and the scanning module continuously runs. The user only needs to hold the scanning pen naturally and slightly roll the bearing 10 to continuously scan, avoiding the fatigue problem caused by continuously pressing the button with a single finger, making the long-time use more relaxed and improving the operation comfort.
[0051] This multi-mode trigger design can be flexibly switched between the pressing and rolling methods. The user can choose the appropriate operation method according to different needs. The pressing mode simplifies the start operation by using the natural five-finger holding action; the rolling mode is continuously triggered by the overall pressure and is suitable for long-time use, significantly improving the user experience.
[0052] At the same time, in order to achieve the switching between the pressing mode and the rolling mode, a switching button is designed. The switching button is located on the side of the pen body 1. When the user presses this button, the mode conversion is realized through the circuit control module. The specific principle is as follows:
[0053] The switching button is connected to a microcontroller known to those of ordinary skill in the art. The microcontroller switches between the pressing mode and the rolling mode according to the pressed or released state of the button. When the switching button is pressed, the microcontroller receives a signal, changes the internal circuit logic, and switches the triggering mode of the touch switch 4 from pressing to rolling. The microcontroller changes the circuit connection mode by controlling an electronic switch or a relay, thereby realizing mode conversion.
[0054] In the pressing mode, the microcontroller directly connects the touch switch 4 to the triggering circuit of the scanning module 12. When the user presses the bearing 10, the circuit can be closed and the scanning can be triggered. When switching to the rolling mode, the microcontroller adjusts the circuit to a continuously closed state, and only by rolling the bearing 10 can the circuit be kept closed and the scanning be continuously triggered.
[0055] After the successful switching, the user is prompted about the current working mode through an LED indicator or a buzzer. For example, in the pressing mode, the indicator light is constantly green; in the rolling mode, the indicator light flashes red. The buzzer can also emit different prompt sounds. A short sound indicates the pressing mode, and a long sound indicates the rolling mode.
[0056] This design that realizes two modes of pressing and rolling through the switching button ensures that users can flexibly select the operation method according to different needs, improving the usability and applicability of the product. Through clear indicator lights or buzzer prompts, users can intuitively understand the current working mode, further enhancing the user experience.
[0057] When the user needs to perform text scanning for a long time, the scanning can be continuously triggered by rolling the bearing 10. The design of the rolling bearing 10 utilizes the natural holding posture of the user when holding the scanning pen, so that the downward pressure of the whole pen body 1 triggers the touch switch 4 to keep the scanning ongoing. Compared with the traditional single-finger continuous pressing button method, this method greatly reduces the operation fatigue of users during long-term use and improves the user experience.
[0058] From the above embodiments, it can be seen that this technical solution effectively solves the problems existing in the prior art, such as cumbersome start-up scanning, poor applicability, and operation fatigue. The design that uses the bearing 10 to trigger not only simplifies the operation process, but also improves the applicability of the product and the operation comfort of users, and is particularly suitable for use in scenarios that require frequent or long-term scanning.
[0059] Embodiment 2:
[0060] In this embodiment, the user can trigger the scanning operation by pressing or rolling the bearing 10 at the tip 2 of the pen. The specific implementation method is as follows:
[0061] Pressing the bearing 10 triggers the scanning mode: When the user needs to perform a short scanning operation, the bearing 10 at the pen tip end 2 can be pressed. Utilizing the five-finger force when the user holds the scanning pen, by pressing the pen body 1 downward as a whole, the positioning rod 5 presses the touch switch 4 through the pressure plate 9, triggering the scanning operation. Compared with the method of pressing a button with a single finger in the prior art, this design makes full use of the natural movement of the user's five fingers holding the pen, reduces the operation steps, and makes starting the scanning more convenient, especially suitable for scenarios where quick start and stop of scanning are required.
[0062] Rolling the bearing 10 continuously triggers the scanning mode: When the user needs to perform a long scanning operation, the bearing 10 at the pen tip end 2 can be rolled. By rolling the bearing 10, the positioning rod 5 continuously presses the touch switch 4 to keep the scanning going. The user only needs to hold the scanning pen with five fingers and slightly roll the bearing 10 to achieve continuous scanning. This method avoids the fatigue problem caused by continuously pressing a button with a single finger in the traditional technology, makes the long scanning operation easier, and improves the user's operation comfort.
[0063] By switching and using the two triggering scanning modes of pressing and rolling the bearing 10, the user can select a suitable operation method according to different usage requirements, greatly improving the flexibility and convenience of the operation.
[0064] This embodiment shows the bearing 10 triggering design of the present utility model. How the two modes of triggering scanning by pressing or rolling the bearing 10 effectively solve the problems such as cumbersome start of scanning and operation fatigue in the prior art. The pressing mode simplifies the start operation by using the natural movement of holding the pen with five fingers, while the rolling mode avoids the fatigue of continuously pressing with a single finger through the overall pressure of holding with five fingers, is suitable for long-term use, and significantly improves the user experience.
