Interactive Reading Book Sound Activation via Flexible Pressing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current electronic books rely solely on button pressing for sound activation, which becomes monotonous and limits the enhancement of amusement and interactivity.
Innovation Solution
A reading material with a flexible pressing member that provides a soft touch feedback, triggering a trigger button to control a sounding unit, enhancing sensory development and interactivity through varied sound responses.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a traditional button is used for sound activation, then the device structure is simple, but the touch comfort and sensory development are insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies a flexible pressing member with soft material (such as silicone rubber or foam) that provides gentle touch feedback suitable for children. This flexible surface replaces traditional hard buttons, improving touch comfort while maintaining the underlying simple button-pressing mechanism for sound activation.
2Adaptability or versatility
If only button pressing functionality is provided, then the device structure is simple, but the interactivity and amusement are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enhances the electronic book by adding multiple interaction modalities beyond simple button pressing. The flexible pressing member provides tactile feedback, and the system integrates visual displays and auditory outputs to create a multi-sensory learning experience that maintains educational value while improving interactivity.
Solution Approach 2:
The flexible pressing member provides soft touch feedback to the child during interaction. This tactile feedback mechanism enhances the user experience by giving immediate sensory response to the child's pressing action, making the interaction more engaging and informative without complicating the core functionality.
3Ease of operation
If a flexible pressing member is added to provide soft touch feedback, then the sensory development is enhanced, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The flexible pressing member is constructed from soft materials like silicone rubber or foam that conform to the button surface. This flexible layer provides gentle tactile feedback suitable for children's sensitive fingers while maintaining the underlying simple button-pressing mechanism, thus enhancing sensory development without proportionally increasing complexity.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case

AI summary
The application discloses a reading material sounding by pressing, including: a book body and a sounding assembly. The book body is provided with an opening. The sounding assembly includes a trigger button, a flexible pressing member, a control panel, a power supply and a sounding unit. The control panel, the power supply and the sounding unit are all arranged in the book body, the control panel is electrically connected with the power supply, the sounding unit is electrically connected with the control panel, the trigger button is mounted in the opening and extends to the control panel, and the flexible pressing member is arranged on an outer wall of the trigger button. Pressing the flexible pressing member can press the trigger button, and the trigger button can trigger the control panel, thereby controlling the sounding unit to sound. When reading, a child can press the flexible pressing member, and a soft touch fed back by the flexible pressing member can increase touch comfort of the child and enhance sensory development. With the pressing of the child, the flexible pressing member presses the trigger button, and the trigger button can trigger the control panel to make the sounding unit sound, which can improve interactivity and interest in reading.
