Embodiment
As shown in Fig. 1.Touch-screen of the present invention comprises infrared-emitting diode 11, and infrared receiving diode 13, two liquid crystal light valves are to 12, optical lens 14, opaque materials 15.Wherein touch-screen two neighboring edges are covered with infrared-emitting diode, other two neighboring edges are covered with infrared receiving diode, the infrared receiving diode position of the infrared-emitting diode at an edge of touch-screen and offside one by one over against, infrared-emitting diode, infrared receiving diode form the infrared array of quadrature at touch-screen edge close-packed arrays.Be placed with liquid crystal light valve that the liquid crystal light valve by two opposed polarity switch interlocks consists of in the place ahead of infrared-emitting diode to 12, be used for controlling in the different time conducting and the cut-off of infrared light on the optical lens diverse location.In the right the place ahead of liquid crystal light valve, be fixed with the optical lens that width is complementary with liquid crystal light valve, infrared-emitting diode is on the focal plane of optical lens, so that by the parallel outgoing of the right infrared light of liquid crystal light valve.Opaque materials 15 is placed on liquid crystal light valve right centre, makes infrared light without the main shaft of optical lens, has formed two groups of directional lights with regard to timesharing like this, also namely forms two groups of different infrared grids in the different time.In case there is a touch objects to block, will timesharing stop two groups of different light paths, there is plural infrared reception diode not receive infrared light in the different time.According to the different coordinates that can calculate multiple point touching that blocks.Under the large scale infrared touch panel, the infrared emission that needs is more to managing, and uses the method to reduce sweep time, improves the response speed of multiple point touching.
Liquid crystal light valve is in the situation that without impressed voltage, in liquid crystal light valve, intermembranously can not form regular electric field, and liquid crystal molecule becomes disordered state, and its effective refractive index is not complementary with the refractive index of polymkeric substance, and incident ray is by strong reflection.In the situation that apply external voltage, the optical axis of liquid crystal particle is arranged perpendicular to film surface, and namely the direction with electric field is consistent, and the ordinary refraction index of particulate and the refractive index of polymkeric substance are mated substantially, scattering consisted of basic medium uniformly, so incident light can not occur.Two liquid crystal light valve polarity in each infrared-emitting diode of the present invention the place ahead are different, and in the conducting respectively of different time, the light of controlling diverse location passes through.
As shown in Figure 2.The rear of gravestone type infrared diode is rectangular parallelepiped, and the place ahead is hemispheric flat diode, and its width is 3mm-5mm.
As shown in Figure 3.It is formed optical lens by many structures and the identical little optical lens unit planar linear arrangement of performance, and wherein one side is flat, and another side is the curved surface that periodic undulations changes.Each optical lens unit is not working to light the effect of converging with the perpendicular direction of orientation, and in its orientation, each optical lens unit is equivalent to plus lens, plays the optically focused imaging.
As shown in Fig. 4.Regard a unit light as by the infrared light of liquid crystal light valve, be placed on the focal plane of optical lens, namely as being on the focal plane, can make as any point on the plane all can become parallel beam through the post lens.As shown in the figure, take the O point as the center of circle, for the y=0 point, it becomes the light beam of propagating along optical axis oo ' after the refraction of post mirror.Take optical axis oo ' as the boundary, the downward transmission information of thin parallel beam that forms greater than 0 point for y; The thin parallel beam that the point of y<0 forms is transmission information upwards, and the width of thin parallel beam is the pitch p of optical lens unit.Wherein to depart from the computing formula of angle δ of optical axis yy as follows for parallel beam, and y is the position from the initial point longitudinal axis, and the r original screen panel is radius-of-curvature, and n is the refractive index of original screen panel:

As shown in Figure 5.This pointolite is positioned at the top of focal plane main shaft, and its output light is the directional light that deflects down certain angle.
As shown in Figure 6.Described a kind of infrared touch system based on liquid crystal light valve and optical lens, it is characterized in that: every eight liquid crystal light valves are produced being one group, each liquid crystal light comprises a positive polarity and a liquid crystal light valve negative polarity, liquid crystal light valve links together to group and group, drive when consistent managing 8 one group with commonly used infrared emission, to improve the reusing of liquid crystal light valve.
As shown in Figure 7.Optic path figure when Fig. 7 is the conducting of positive polarity liquid crystal light valve.Suppose to detect two touch signals, according to the Computing Principle at triangle edges, angle, obtained the coordinate setting point of infrared grid.Due to the touch signals of 2 can make up obtain four some A (m, a), B (n, a), C (m, b), D (n, b);
As shown in Figure 8.Optic path figure when Fig. 8 is the conducting of negative polarity liquid crystal light valve.It formed with Fig. 7 different directions on degree of tilt.When Fig. 7 detected A, B, C, 4 touch coordinates of D, Fig. 8 had stopped the light of different light paths, can obtain A through calculating coordinate, D, E, four points of F, wherein two identical with Fig. 7 coordinate, and two other difference.According to the analysis of two groups of coordinates, can get rid of pseudo-touch point, carry out the multiple point touching response by common touch gestures identification to controlling the interface.
Workflow of the present invention is as follows:
A. drive one by one the infrared emission diode, and give respectively the liquid crystal light valve positive level, make the liquid crystal light valve of positive polarity be in conducting state, infrared light is by the liquid crystal light valve of positive polarity, and the liquid crystal light valve of negative polarity ends.Also namely, one group of liquid crystal light valve conducting of infrared transmitting tube the place ahead same polarity, other one group of cut-off are controlled in timesharing.
During b. according to the liquid crystal light valve conducting of positive polarity, form the infrared grid that intersects on whole touch pad; Occur in case have to touch, infrared ray is blocked, and can obtain one group of touch signal.
C. when the liquid crystal light valve conducting of negative polarity, the cut-off of the liquid crystal light valve of positive polarity, the different infrared grid of direction when having formed from the positive polarity conducting; Obtain other one group of touch signal.
D. obtain two groups of touch coordinates by stating two groups of touch signals through calculating coordinate; If the touch point that two groups of touch signals obtain is all to have and only have one, be so just single-point touches; If detect and to obtain a plurality of touch points, analyze the combination of the touch coordinate of first group and second group, remove pseudo-touch point, draw the point of real touch.
E. by touch point obtained above, according to gesture identification, judge the multiple point touching gesture, realize the gesture response to the user, touch interface is carried out multiple spot control.
