Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of stylus technology, specifically to an electronic pen with a button structure. Background Technology
[0002] The rise of electronic pens (or styluses) is inextricably linked to the widespread adoption of smart devices such as tablets and large touchscreens. Currently, the mainstream technologies in the market are mainly divided into two categories: electromagnetic pens and capacitive pens.
[0003] Meanwhile, some electronic pens on the market are equipped with buttons on the side. Users can perform operations other than handwriting on the tablet device by pressing these side buttons. For example, they can quickly trigger additional commands on the screen by using the natural thumb movement of the grip position. This type of button structure integrated into the side of the pen is tightly assembled with the pen grip shell through a precise snap-fit structure, ensuring that the button can be accurately positioned and firmly anchored in the preset holes on the side wall of the pen shell, providing reliable physical support and preventing it from loosening or falling off during daily use.
[0004] However, the button structure of current electronic pens is quite inconvenient to disassemble and repair after installation. It usually requires first damaging the glue binding the pen body or prying open the clips between the pen casing and the main body to pull out the core part of the electronic pen before the button structure can detach from the inside. Alternatively, prying the button off from the outside can damage or break the clips, thus affecting subsequent normal use. Utility Model Content

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] like Figures 1-4 As shown, in one embodiment, an electronic pen has a button structure 30.
[0028] The pen refill module 10 has a connection position corresponding to the button structure 30. The pen refill module 10 is the core component that carries the electromagnetic pen refill. In some embodiments, the connection position can be a nut copper post 11 for connecting the button structure 30, i.e., the button.
[0029] The outer shell module 20 is the outer shell. The outer shell module 20 is fitted on the outside of the pen refill module 10. When the button structure 30 is removed, the outer shell module 20 can move along the axial direction of the pen refill module 10. The outer shell is used to load and protect the pen refill module 10 to ensure overall stability and durability. When disassembly or assembly is required, the outer shell can be removed from the pen refill module 10 or installed.
[0030] The button structure 30 is located in the through slot 21 on the outer shell module 20, and one end of the button structure 30 is connected to the connection position of the pen refill module 10 through a connector. In this embodiment, the button structure 30 is a button, which is installed on the side of the pen refill module 10. The connector can be a screw 40, which is used to fix the button to the pen refill module 10. The button is not only used for the operation of the electronic pen, but also serves as a fixing seat connecting the pen refill module 10 and the outer shell. When the button is pressed, it can produce a slight deformation, thereby pressing the corresponding sensing area of the pen refill module 10.
[0031] Using the above technical solution, the button is fixed to the pen refill module 10 using screw 40. When inserting the pen refill module 10 into the bottom of the outer casing, it is necessary to ensure that the copper post is exposed. Then, place the button in the appropriate position, ensuring that the button hole 12 is aligned with the copper post. At this point, screwing in the screw 40 completes the installation, ensuring that the button is firmly fixed. When the user presses the button, the button undergoes a slight deformation, and the button pin 32 passes through the button hole 12 of the pen refill, transmitting the pressing force to the button area of the pen refill structure, thereby realizing the pressing function of the side button.
[0032] In one embodiment, one end of the button structure 30 has a protrusion 33, and the protrusion 33 has an opening inside. The other end of the button structure 30 forms a button pin 32. The protrusion 33 can be used to support the screw 40 and can better correspond to the upper end of the nut copper post 11 on the pen refill module 10, improving installation accuracy. The opening inside the protrusion 33 facilitates the passage of the screw 40 and its connection with the nut copper post 11. The button pin 32 is also a protruding structure, so that it can extend into the corresponding area inside the pen refill module 10 and perform the corresponding function after contact.
[0033] In one embodiment, the connection is a nut-copper post 11, and the inner diameter of the upper end of the nut-copper post 11 is larger than the outer diameter of the protrusion 33, so that the protrusion 33 can be inserted into the upper end of the nut-copper post 11, facilitating the subsequent fixing of the screw 40. Compared with directly drilling a threaded hole on the pen refill module 10, the use of the nut-copper post 11 is more durable due to the different materials.
[0034] In one embodiment, the pen refill module 10 has a button hole 12 adapted to the button pin 32. The button pin 32 passes through the button hole 12 and contacts the sensing area inside the pen refill module 10. This allows the button pin 32 to extend into the button hole 12, and when the button pin 32 contacts the sensing area inside the button hole 12, it triggers the corresponding function.
[0035] In one embodiment, a recessed area 34 is formed at the bottom of the button structure 30, which is adapted to a protrusion 13 on the pen refill module 10. On the one hand, this allows the button structure 30 to be more stably and securely fixed to the pen refill module 10. On the other hand, the protrusion 13 on the pen refill module 10 makes it easier for the button structure 30 to undergo slight deformation when the button is pressed, thereby triggering the corresponding subsequent functions.
[0036] In one embodiment, the button structure 30 is made of plastic, such as polycarbonate or polyoxymethylene, which facilitates its deformation and enables the function to be triggered. In other embodiments, a metal material, such as aluminum alloy, may also be used, depending on the actual needs.
[0037] In one embodiment, the outer shell module 20 is hollow along its axial direction, and the inner diameter of the outer shell module 20 is adapted to the inner diameter of the pen refill module 10. This allows the outer shell to be removed or installed axially during disassembly and installation.
[0038] To facilitate understanding of the above-mentioned technical solution of this utility model, the specific implementation steps or operation methods of this utility model in actual process will be described in detail below:
[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, during installation: First, gently insert the pen refill module 10 into the outer casing module 20 to ensure proper alignment and stable placement.
[0040] Ensure that the nut copper post 11 of the button structure 30 is facing upwards, and place the button structure 30 on the pen refill module 10. During this process, special attention should be paid to aligning the screw 40 hole 31 on the button structure 30 with the nut copper post 11 in the pen refill module 10 to ensure accurate installation.
[0041] Screw 40 in and tighten it until the button structure 30 is securely connected to the pen refill module 10. At this point, the screw 40 will firmly secure the button structure 30 and ensure a stable connection between the entire pen refill module 10 and the outer casing module 20, preventing any loosening or instability.
[0042] like Figure 4 As shown, during disassembly: First, use a screwdriver to unscrew the screws 40 that secure the pen refill module 10 to the button. Ensure the screws 40 are completely loose for easy disassembly.
[0043] Gently remove button structure 30.
[0044] Remove the pen refill module 10 to complete the disassembly process.
