输入设备外层和背光
背景
移动计算设备已被开发以增加移动设置中变得对用户可用的功能。例如,用户可以与移动电话、平板计算机或其他移动计算设备进行交互以检查电子邮件、在网上冲浪、撰写文本、与应用进行交互等。
然而由于移动计算设备被配置为可移动的,其中移动计算设备可被使用的设置可极大地变化。例如,围绕移动计算设备的环境中的光量也可因设置而异。因此,开发了在这样的情况下帮助用户的技术。这一点的一个示例是对背光的使用,使得用户可观看到计算设备的可用输入的指示,例如,键盘的键的指示。
然而,用于提高计算设备的“外观和感觉”的已开发的技术可能与常规背光技术不兼容,诸如涉及对以下织物(fabric)的使用的技术:该织物允许用户观看到由光穿过该织物中的孔洞而造成的针孔效应。

详细描述
概览
移动计算设备因它们的移动构造,例如配置成由用户的一只或多只手握住,而可被用在大量不同情形中。然而如前所述,被利用以改进与这些移动计算设备交互的常规技术在面对同样可被采用来改进用户交互的其它技术时可能受到限制。例如,当与背光一起使用时,用于改进触觉响应的常规织物的使用可能由于织物中的“峰和谷”以及可导致光漏过织物的其它空间而遭受针孔效应。
因此,描述了输入设备外层和背光技术。在一个或多个实现中,输入设备被配置来和移动计算设备(诸如平板、智能电话等)一起使用,诸如集成到可移除地连接到移动计算设备的盖子中的键盘。该输入设备可包括被配置成向输入设备的表面上的功能的指示提供背光照明的光导。例如,光导可被配置为通用光导,使得不同指示(例如,图例)可被指示在输入设备的表面上以支持不同语言、配置等,无需重新配置光导。
此外,输入设备可被配置为减少,甚至消除光穿过输入设备外表面的渗漏,这可帮助支持对通用光导的使用。这可包括输入设备的外层的配置,以便抵抗光穿过外层的不需要的渗漏。例如,外层可由具有所需纹理的织物层来配置。具有平滑表面的另一织物层可被粘合于纹理的织物层以增加对光透射穿过这些层的抵抗能力。此外,不同的阴影也可被用于这些层,以便进一步增加对光透射穿过外层的不需要的区域的抵抗能力。以此方式,针孔效应可被减少,甚至消除,以便用作输入设备的一部分。可以与以下各章节相关地找到对这些和其它技术的进一步讨论。
在以下讨论中,首先描述了可采用本文描述的技术的示例环境。然后描述了在示例环境(即,输入设备)中可使用的层的示例,其可以在示例环境以及在其它环境中实施。因此,对各示例层的使用不限于该示例环境,并且该示例环境不限于对示例层的使用。
示例环境
图1是可用于采用本文描述的技术的示例实现中的环境100的图示。所示环境100包括经由柔性铰链106物理地且通信地与输入设备104耦合的计算设备102的示例。计算设备102可以各种方式被配置。例如,计算设备102可被配置用于移动用途,诸如移动电话、如所示的平板计算机等等,其被配置为由用户的一只或多只手持有。因此,计算设备102的范围可以从具有大量存储器和处理器资源的全资源设备到具有有限存储器和/或处理资源的低资源设备。计算设备102还可与致使计算设备102执行一个或多个操作的软件相关。
例如,计算设备102被例示为包括输入/输出模块108。输入/输出模块108表示与处理计算设备102的输入以及呈现计算设备102的输出相关的功能。输入/输出模块108可处理各种不同的输入,诸如涉及与输入设备104的键相对应的功能的输入、显示设备110所显示的用以标识手势并导致操作被执行的虚拟键盘的键相对应的功能的输入等等,被执行的操作与通过输入设备104和/或显示设备110的触摸屏功能可被识别的手势相对应。因此,输入/输出模块108可通过识别并利用包括键压、手势等在内的各种类型的输入之间的区分来支持各种不同的输入技术。
在所示的示例中,输入设备104被配置成具有输入部,该输入部包括具有QWERTY键布置的键盘和轨迹板,但也构想了其它键布置。此外,还构想了其它非常规配置,如游戏控制器、模仿乐器的配置等等。因此,输入设备104以及输入设备104所包含的键可采用各种不同的配置来支持各种不同的功能。
如先前所描述的,在该示例中,输入设备104通过使用柔性铰链106物理地且通信地耦合到计算设备102。柔性铰链106是柔性的,在于该铰链所支持的旋转移动是通过形成该铰链的材料的挠曲(例如,弯曲)来实现的,这与如由销所支持的机械旋转相对照(但也构想了该实施例)。此外,该柔性旋转可被配置成支持在一个或多个方向上的(例如,在该图中为垂直地)移动,而限制在其它方向上的移动,诸如输入设备104相对于计算设备102的横向移动。这可用于支持输入设备104相对于计算设备102的一致对齐,诸如以将用于改变电源状态、应用状态等的传感器对齐。
例如,柔性铰链106可使用一层或多层织物形成并包括被形成为柔性迹线的导体,以将输入设备104通信地耦合到计算设备102并反之亦然。该通信例如可用于将键压的结果传达至计算设备102、从计算设备接收电力、执行认证、向计算设备102提供补充电力等等。
输入设备104还被例示为包括背光机制112。背光机制112表示被配置为从输入设备104的表面发射光的功能,诸如用以照亮输入的指示(例如,键盘的字母以及键盘、跟踪垫等的边界)。以此方式,这些指示可在低光照条件下被观看到。此外,输入设备104的外层114可被配置为抵抗来自背光机制112的光的不需要的透射,诸如用于减少针孔效应。背光机制112和外层114可以各种各样的方式被实现,结合图4的讨论开始可找到其进一步讨论,图4的讨论在如下的输入设备104的示例的进一步讨论之后。
图2描绘了在更详细地示出柔性铰链106时的图1的输入设备104的示例实现200。在该示例中,示出了输入设备的被配置成提供输入设备104与计算设备102之间的通信和物理连接的连接部202。所例示出的连接部202具有被配置为被容纳在计算设备102的外壳中的通道中的高度和横截面,但这一布置也可反转而不背离其精神和范围。
连接部202通过使用柔性铰链106而柔性地连接到包括键的输入设备104的一部分。因此,在连接部202物理上连接到计算设备102时,连接部202与柔性铰链106的组合支持输入设备104相对于计算设备102的移动,这类似于书的合页。
通过这一旋转移动,可以支持输入设备104相对于计算设备102的各种不同定向。例如,旋转移动可由柔性铰链106支持,使得输入设备104可抵靠计算设备102的显示设备110放置并由此用作盖板。因此,输入设备104可用来保护计算设备102的显示设备110免于损伤。
连接部202可以以多种方式被固定到计算设备,其一个示例被示为包括磁耦合设备204、206(例如,通量喷泉),机械耦合突起208、210,以及多个通信触点212。磁耦合设备204、206被配置成通过使用一个或多个磁体来磁耦合到计算设备102的互补磁耦合设备。以此方式,通过使用磁吸引力可将输入设备104物理地固定到计算设备102。
连接部分202还包括形成输入设备104与计算设备102之间的机械物理连接的机械耦合突起208、210。机械耦合突起208、210关于图3被更详细地示出,这在下文讨论。
图3描绘了示出图2的连接部202的透视图的示例实现300,该连接部包括机械耦合突起208、210和多个通信触点212。如图所示,机械耦合突起208、210被配置成延伸离开连接部202的表面,在这种情况下是垂直的,但也构想了其它角度。
机械耦合突起208、210被配置为要被容纳在计算设备102的通道内的互补腔内。在如此容纳时,在施加不与被限定为对应于突起的高度和腔的深度的轴相对齐的力时,机械耦合突起208、210促成设备之间的机械绑定。
连接部202还被例示为包括多个通信触点212。多个通信触点212被配置成接触计算设备102的相应通信触点以形成如所示的这些设备之间的通信耦合。连接部202可以各种其它方式被配置,包括对旋转铰链、机械固定装置等的使用。以下,描述并在相应附图中示出了扩展坞装置112的示例。
图4描绘了示出图1的输入设备104的横截面的示例实现400。可对应于图1的外层114的外层402被配置成提供输入设备104的外表面,用户可触摸并与之交互。外层402可以各种各样的方式,诸如从织物材料层(例如,带有用于键形成的热浮雕的背光兼容聚氨酯)形成,如结合图6开始进一步描述的那样。
在外层之下是平滑层404。平滑层404可被配置成支持各种不同功能。这可包括用作减少外层402的起皱的支撑,诸如通过形成为薄塑料片(例如,约0.125毫米的聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯(PET)),外层402通过使用粘合剂与其固定。平滑层404还可被配置成包括遮掩功能以减少甚至消除不需要的光透射,例如光穿过平滑层404和穿过织物外层402的渗漏。平滑层还在外层下面提供连续表面,使得其隐藏了内层之间的任何不连续性或过渡。
光导406也被例示出,其可作为图1的背光机制112的一部分被包括以支持输入设备104的输入的指示(例如,图例)的背光。这可包括键盘的键、游戏控件、手势指示等的照亮。光导406可以以各种方式,诸如从250微米厚的塑料片,例如带有经蚀刻的纹理的透明聚碳酸酯材料,来被形成。结合图5开始可找到对光导406的附加讨论。
还描绘了传感器组件408。因此,如所示,光导406和平滑层404设置在外层402和传感器组件408之间。传感器组件408被配置来检测物体的邻近度以发起输入。所检测到的输入可接着(例如,通过连接部202)被传送到计算设备102,以发起计算设备102的一个或多个操作。传感器组件408可以各种方式被配置,诸如电容传感器阵列、多个压敏传感器(例如,使用排列成阵列以支持键击和手势的压敏墨水的薄膜开关)、机械开关、及其组合,等等,以便检测输入的邻近度。
结构组件410也被例示出。结构组件410可以各种方式被配置,诸如配置用于向输入设备104提供刚性(例如,抵抗折弯和弯曲)的迹线板和支持物。还例示出衬背层412以向输入设备104提供后表面。衬背层412,例如,可从类似于外层402的织物来形成(省略外层402的一个或多个子层),例如聚氨酯的湿和干层制成的0.38毫米厚的织物。尽管描述了各层的示例,应当很明显地发现还构想了各种其它实现,包括一个或多个层的移除、其它层(例如,专用力集中器层、机械开关层)的附加,等等。因此,对各层的示例的以下讨论不限于将那些层结合在这个示例实现400中,且反之亦然。
图5描绘了图1的背光机制的示例实现500,其包括图4的光导406以及光源。如前所述,光导406可以各种方式配置以支持要作为输入设备102的背光的光的传输。例如,光导406可由透明塑料或支持来自光源502的光的传输的其它材料配置,光源502可使用一个或多个发光二极管(LED)来实现。光导406被安置以通过光导406的一侧接收来自光源502的发射光,并通过光导406的一个或多个其它侧和/或表面区域来发出光。
例如,光导406可被配置为通过使用蚀刻、浮雕、由具有不同折射率的另一材料接触(例如,设置在光导406的塑料上的粘合剂)等,在特定位置输出光。在另一个示例中,光导406可被配置为通用光导,使得光导406的表面的大部分(且甚至全部)可被配置来输出光(例如通过蚀刻光导406的表面504的大部分)。因此,替代在此示例中特别配置光导406,相同光导可被用来输出不同的输入指示,其可被输入设备104用于支持不同语言、输入的安排等。
然而,如前面所描述的,在传统技术中,这可导致光穿过光导的相邻表面渗漏,诸如穿过织物的外层402以给出“星光”效应、针孔等。因此,这些相邻层中的一个或多个可被配置来减少且甚至防止光在不希望的位置处的透射,其涉及外层402的配置的一个示例如下所述并示出在对应附图中。
图6描绘了用于作为图4的外层402的一部分而包括的织物层的形成的示例实现600。示例实现600被例示为包括多个阶段602、604,其可以以任何顺序执行。在第一阶段602,形成具有纹理表面的织物层606。这是由被配置为将柔性材料布置在纹理离型纸612上的挤压设备610(例如,层压设备)执行的。
例如,挤压设备610可将诸如聚氨酯之类的材料挤压到纹理离型纸612上,以便为诸如图1的输入设备104之类的装置的外表面获得希望的纹理。纹理离型纸612可被配置为支持各种各样的不同的纹理,诸如模仿皮革、机织材料、微纤维等的感觉。
纹理离型纸612被配置成将所希望的纹理提供至这些层压结构。例如,纹理离型纸612可被配置为模仿希望的纹理,诸如织物纹理、机织纹理、类皮革感觉等。以此方式,离型纸502可向外层402的外表面提供粗糙度,从而向结合了外层402的装置(例如图1的输入设备104)支持希望的感觉。
在第二阶段604,形成具有平滑表面的织物层608。这也是由挤压设备614(例如,层压设备)执行的,其在本例中被配置为将柔性材料布置在平滑离型纸616上。因此,具有平滑表面的织物层608可具有比具有纹理表面的织物层606的表面更平滑的表面。这可被利用来支持各种各样的功能。
例如,已经发现,对具有深的峰和谷的纹理的织物,“针孔”或“星光”效应通常被放大。相应地,反之亦然,即不具有深的峰和谷的纹理的织物可对这个效应具有较大抵抗能力,诸如具有平滑表面的织物层608。因此,这些织物层可被组合以形成外层,以便支持所希望的纹理而且还允许与背光机制112一起使用,其示例在以下更详细地描述并在相应的图中被示出。
图7描绘了被配置为将图6的织物层彼此固定的系统的示例实现700。在此示例中,热固性设备702被利用来将具有纹理表面的织物层606固定于具有平滑表面的织物层608。此外,执行这一步骤使得在固定之际纹理704和平滑706表面被暴露。以此方式,纹理704表面可提供装置(例如,输入设备104)的外表面,而平滑706表面可邻近光导布置以便减少穿过具有纹理表面的织物层606的针孔透射。
例如,即使具有平滑表面的织物层608包括针孔,所包括的针孔的数量小于具有纹理表面的织物层606中的针孔的数量。另外,具有平滑表面的织物层608中的针孔与具有纹理表面的织物层606中的针孔对齐的可能性可相对较小,并因此进一步降低光穿过两层的能力。尽管描述了热固性,还构想了用于将层固定在一起的多种多样的其它技术而不背离本发明的精神和范围,诸如使用粘合剂、机械等。
图8描绘了一示例实现800,其中更详细地示出图4的外层402。在本示例中,外层402被布置在光导406上,使得平滑706表面朝向光导406,而纹理704表面被安置为设备(例如图1的输入设备104)的外表面。
如前所述,外层402包括具有纹理表面的织物层606以及具有平滑表面的织物层608。在此示例中,然而,各织物层具有不同的阴影,以便支持对不同颜色的使用供用于设备的外表面上,但仍旧阻挡来自光导406的穿过这些层的光透射。
例如,具有纹理表面的织物层606可相邻于具有平滑表面的织物层608布置,具有平滑表面的织物层608具有更深的阴影。因此,在此示例中各层逐渐加深,以便随着层被安置得越接近图4的光导408就对光透射提供增加量的抵抗能力。这可被用于支持各种不同的功能。
例如,较浅的颜色可被配置来阻挡较少的光,并且因此输入设备104对这些较浅颜色的使用可导致额外的光穿过这些层“渗漏”。然而,在某些实例中,可能想要在外层402使用浅色,例如以创建红、黄、橙、棕黄或其它着浅色的输入设备。此外,如果一显著更深的层被直接布置在这个织物层之下(例如,用以通过使用深灰色或黑色层用于遮掩子层608来阻止光透射),则该更深的层也可透过着色较浅的织物可见。
因此,可利用具有平滑表面的织物层608,其在颜色上相同或相似(例如,补色)于具有纹理表面的织物层606使用的颜色,但比此层阴影更深。以此方式,织物层的外观可被维持,并且还提供了从图4的光导408射出的光的减少的透射,以便如先前所述支持对通用光导的使用。
白色干子层802和白色湿层804被例示为被布置在织物层之下。白色干子层802可从粘结到白色湿层804的干聚氨酯形成,白色湿层是从聚氨酯的白色镀液形成的。白色湿层804可包含嵌入的机织材料,其可被用于当作载体并向外层402提供拉伸和结构特性,并可被用于向外层402提供毛绒的加衬垫的感觉。
然后可穿过分别具有纹理和平滑表面的织物层606、608形成开口806,来自光导403的光可通过此开口。来自光导406的光也可照亮白色干和湿子层组合802、804,以便例如在此示例中提供白色背光照明,但其它颜色也被构想。开口806可通过各种各样的方式被形成,诸如通过使用所例示的激光808、热压等。以此方式,由外层402中具有纹理和平滑表面的织物层606、608支持的针对光透射的抵抗能力可支持以通用配置对光导406的使用,使得不同光导不被利用于不同指示,例如,针对不同语言的不同图例。还可以配置其他层来支持对通用光导配置的使用,其一示例如下所述并且示出于相对应的附图中。
