Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flexible sensor application technology, specifically to a flexible sensing device and a two-wheeled vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the human-computer interaction of many devices relies on traditional mechanical physical buttons. Taking the control unit of a two-wheeled vehicle as an example, it usually has multiple independent physical buttons on the handlebars to control functions such as power assist, lights, etc.

[0003] A Chinese patent application with publication number CN222408443U discloses a two-wheeled vehicle brake warning system, comprising: a detection component installed on the brake of the two-wheeled vehicle for detecting the braking status; a control component including a battery and a circuit board for controlling the warning component based on the signal from the detection component; and a warning component installed on the back of a helmet, the back of a riding vest, or a attached trailer for warning vehicles or pedestrians behind when the two-wheeled vehicle changes its driving state.

[0004] However, this approach has several shortcomings. First, to achieve multiple functions, multiple independent button components are required, resulting in a complex and bulky overall control device that struggles to meet the growing demands for miniaturization and integration in device design. Second, the mechanical buttons contain moving parts and physical gaps, making them susceptible to poor contact or malfunction due to dust and moisture intrusion during long-term use. Waterproofing and dustproofing performance is also difficult to guarantee, and repeated pressing and wear of the mechanical contacts limit their lifespan.

[0005] To overcome the aforementioned drawbacks of mechanical buttons, this application proposes a flexible sensing device and a two-wheeled vehicle. Utility Model Content

[0022] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, a flexible sensing device according to this utility model includes a flexible packaging structure 1, a flexible sensing material layer 2, a processing circuit board 3, and a communication interface. The flexible packaging structure 1 forms the packaging shell and serves as the operation interface. The flexible sensing material layer 2 is disposed inside the flexible packaging structure 1 and converts the mechanical force acting on the operation interface into an electrical signal. The processing circuit board 3 is disposed inside the flexible packaging structure 1 and is electrically connected to the flexible sensing material layer 2. The communication interface is electrically connected to the processing circuit board 3, connecting the processing circuit board 3 to an external controlled device.

[0023] Specifically, the flexible sensing material layer 2 comprises a carbon nanotube composite pressure-sensitive material and / or a conductive rubber pressure-sensitive material. The shape of the flexible sensing material layer 2 can be adaptively adjusted according to the actual application scenario. When the flexible sensing material layer 2 is subjected to pressing or sliding force, the internal material density changes, resulting in a change in its capacitance, which converts the mechanical operation into a change in electrical signal.

[0024] Furthermore, the flexible sensing material layer 2 is divided into at least one independently identifiable sensing area, and the processing circuit board 3 can execute preset instructions based on the sensing area from which the electrical signal originates. Each sensing area outputs a different electrical signal when sensed by external force, and the processing circuit board 3 can execute different preset instructions based on different electrical signals.

Utilizing flexible, waterproof materials (such as food-grade silicone or wear-resistant TPU), it can be shaped to suit different application scenarios. It protects internal components, isolating them from water, dust, and other impurities, while simultaneously transmitting user pressure / sliding force to the sensing material. Adaptable to various installation configurations, it ensures user convenience and durability.

[0027] Furthermore, the communication interface is integrated on the processing circuit board 3, and the communication interface can be a wired communication interface or a wireless communication module. The wired communication interface can connect to external devices via a wire. The wireless communication module can use the conventional Bluetooth protocol or other feasible communication protocols.

These unmarked areas can collect signals of changes in the force exerted by the user on the handlebars, providing hardware support for the intelligent development of two-wheeled vehicles.
