Embodiment
Below enumerate an embodiment, cooperate graphic detailed description indicator device of the present invention.Yet those skilled in the art be when can understanding, these are a little graphicly only to be the usefulness of explanation with literal, can't cause limit to desire protection domain of the present invention.
Please refer to Figure 1A～Fig. 1 C, Figure 1A is the synoptic diagram according to the mobile computer of a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and Figure 1B is the synoptic diagram of indicator device when body separates among Figure 1A, and Fig. 1 C is the calcspar of the indicator device among Figure 1A.Mobile computer 100 comprises body 101 and 102 and indicator device 120.Two bodies 101 and 102 couple mutually, and indicator device 120 is disposed at body 101 separably.Indicator device 120 comprises body 121, Trackpad 122, connectivity port 123, displacement transducer 124, processor 125, wireless communication module 126 and charge storage unit 127.
Trackpad 122 is disposed on the body 121.Connectivity port 123 is disposed at body 121, in order to be electrically connected at body 101.Displacement transducer 124 is disposed in the body 121, in order to moving of sensing body 121.Charge storage unit 127 is arranged in the body 121, and is electrically coupled to connectivity port 123.Wireless communication module 126 is disposed at body 121.Processor 125 is disposed in the body 121, in order to whether to be electrically connected at body 101 according to connectivity port 123 to control Trackpad 122, displacement transducer 124, wireless communication module 126 and charge storage unit 127 and operates under the Trackpad pattern or under the mouse mode.
Shown in Figure 1A and Fig. 1 C, when connectivity port 123 was electrically connected at body 101, processor 125 operated under the Trackpad pattern Trackpad 122, displacement transducer 124, wireless communication module 126 and charge storage unit 127.Further, under the Trackpad pattern, processor 125 activation Trackpads 122 make Trackpad 122 can produce signal when touched, and signal for example can be sent to body 101 via connectivity port 123.In addition, processor 125 forbidden energy displacement transducers 124 and wireless communication module 126 are to avoid the situation of maloperation.Moreover the power supply that charge storage unit 127 receives from body 101 via connectivity port 123 is to charge.Thus, when indicator device 120 separates with body 101, can have sufficient power supply to operate.
For mode of operation more easily is provided, under the Trackpad pattern, the Trackpad 122 of activation can have the roller district A11 of plan and general control area A12 (hatched example areas among Figure 1A).General control area A12 is in order to provide the function of general Trackpad.Intend the function of roller district A11, for example be moving cursor or substitute browsing pages in order to roller that mouse is provided.
Shown in Figure 1B and Fig. 1 C, when connectivity port 123 was not electrically connected at body 101, processor 125 operated under the mouse mode Trackpad 122, displacement transducer 124, wireless communication module 126 and charge storage unit 127.Further, under mouse mode, plan mouse function district A2, displacement transducer 124 and the wireless communication module 126 of processor 125 activation Trackpads 122, and the grip zone A3 of forbidden energy Trackpad 122 (hatched example areas among Figure 1B).Thus, intend that mouse function district A2 and displacement transducer 124 sense user's operation and the signal that produces can be sent to body 101 by wireless communication module 126.In present embodiment, wireless communication module 126 can for example be a bluetooth module.The grip zone A3 of forbidden energy is available for users to grip.In addition, indicator device 120 operates by the power supply that charge storage unit 127 provides.
In addition, the custom when more pressing close to the general operation mouse, under mouse mode, the plan mouse function district A2 of activation can comprise and intends right button district A21, intends left key area A22 and intend roller district A23.Intend the function of right button district A21, intend the function of left key area A22, and intend the function of roller district A23 in order to roller that mouse is provided in order to left button that mouse is provided in order to right button that mouse is provided.
Shown in Figure 1A and Figure 1B, the Trackpad 122 in the present embodiment also has photic zone Ap1 and Ap2.Photic zone Ap1 is intending between roller district A11 and the general control area A12, and photic zone Ap2 is intending between mouse function district A2 and the grip zone A3.By the mode of light by photic zone Ap1 and Ap2, the position that the user can pick out easily and intend roller district A11, general control area A12, intend mouse function district A2 and grip zone A3 is to promote operational convenience.Light for example can be provided by the light source that is configured in the body 121.Indicator device 120 with present embodiment for example is the optical profile type indicator device, and displacement transducer 124 comprises a light source, to come moving of sensing body 121 by the mode of optics.Thus, the light source that displacement transducer 124 comprises not only can moving in order to sensing body 121, and the part light that light source produces also can penetrate outside the body 121 via photic zone Ap1 and Ap2, so that the user picks out the position of intending roller district A11, general control area A12, intending mouse function district A2 and grip zone A3.
Though the indicator device 120 of present embodiment comes transmission signals to body 101 under mouse mode wirelessly, yet, have in the art and know that usually the knowledgeable should understand, indicator device 120 also can be by wired mode transmission signals to body 101 under mouse mode.
The disclosed indicator device of the above embodiment of the present invention can operate under mouse mode and the Trackpad pattern, is convenient to the characteristic of operating and being easy to carry about with one to provide.In addition, in embodiment, Trackpad can have different activation districts under mouse mode and Trackpad pattern, to improve the convenience of operation near user's use habit.
Certainly; the present invention also can have other various embodiments; under the situation that does not deviate from spirit of the present invention and essence thereof; those of ordinary skill in the art work as can make various corresponding changes and distortion according to the present invention, but these corresponding changes and distortion all should belong to the protection domain of the appended claim of the present invention.
