In addition, in another embodiment, the backlight type display unit 11 can also be replaced by a self-luminous type display unit (e.g., a light emitting diode display unit) 11'. For convenience of description, in the following embodiment, a side of the electronic paper display apparatus 1 on which the backlight type display unit 11 is disposed is referred to as a front side, and a side on which the electronic paper display unit 13 is disposed is referred to as a back side. In addition, in other embodiments (for example, an electronic book, a wearable electronic device, or an identification card), the electronic paper display device 1 may also be provided with only the electronic paper display unit 13 without the backlight display unit 11, and the invention is not limited thereto.
In the present embodiment, the e-paper display unit 13 is a display unit using a bistable display technology, that is, the display unit can maintain the same display screen without applying a voltage, and only when the screen display information needs to be changed, the voltage needs to be supplied. Therefore, the power consumption is low, and the specified information can be displayed with relatively low power. In the embodiment, the electronic paper display unit 13 may use electrophoretic (e.g., microcapsule electrophoretic or microcup electrophoretic), electronic powder fluid, cholesteric liquid crystal, bistable nematic liquid crystal, or electrowetting display technologies.
The wireless communication module 16 includes a wireless transmission unit 161 and a satellite positioning receiving unit 162. In other embodiments, the wireless communication module 16, the storage unit 17 and/or the authentication unit 19 may also be integrated in the control unit 14, respectively or together, and the invention is not limited thereto.
In addition, the control unit 14, the main power unit 15, the wireless communication module 16, the storage unit 17, the sub-power storage circuit 18, and the authentication unit 19 may be disposed on a circuit board (not shown) disposed in an accommodating space formed by the first housing 101 and the second housing 102. The main power unit 15 is electrically connected to at least the power detecting circuit 141 of the control unit 14. The wireless transmission unit 161 of the wireless communication module 16 and the satellite positioning receiving unit 162, the backlight display unit 11, the electronic paper display unit 13, the storage unit 17 and the authentication unit 19 are electrically connected to the control unit 14, respectively.

The auxiliary power storage circuit 18 may be an energy storage component such as a super capacitor, an electrolytic capacitor, a ceramic capacitor, an inductor, or an energy storage circuit composed of a plurality of electronic components, which is not limited in the present invention.
The control unit 14 at least includes a Central processing unit (cpu) or a micro controller (MicroController), and the Power detecting circuit 141 can be a Power Management IC (Power Management IC) for detecting the Power of the main Power unit 15 and adjusting the Power of the main Power unit 15 to other components.
The satellite positioning receiving unit 162 is used for receiving a current satellite positioning signal (for example, a signal transmitted by a geostationary satellite of a global positioning system) of the electronic paper display apparatus 1, and providing the current satellite positioning signal of the electronic paper display apparatus 1 to the control unit 14. The control unit 14 can calculate the satellite positioning information 132 of the current physical location (i.e. the located location, such as longitude and latitude) of the electronic paper display device 1 according to the satellite positioning signal, and load the satellite positioning information 132 onto the electronic paper display unit 13 according to the following control manner, so that the electronic paper display unit 13 can display the satellite positioning information 132 corresponding to the satellite positioning signal received by the satellite positioning receiving unit 162 accordingly (as shown in fig. 4A to 4D). In addition, after the control unit 14 calculates the satellite positioning information 132 of the current physical location of the electronic paper display device 1 according to the satellite positioning signal received by the satellite positioning receiving unit 162, it is not necessary to directly load the information on the electronic paper display unit 13, and the control unit 14 may store the satellite positioning information 132 in the storage unit 17, and then the control unit 14 controls the satellite positioning information 132 to load the electronic paper display unit 13 according to the following control method. In addition, the control unit 14 can also control the storage unit 17 to continuously record the satellite positioning information corresponding to the satellite positioning signal received by the satellite positioning receiving unit 162. That is, the control unit 14 controls the storage unit 17 to continuously record the moving track of the electronic paper display device 1.
In this embodiment, the satellite positioning signal is a satellite signal transmitted from a geostationary satellite of the global positioning system, or a signal transmitted by the wireless transmission unit and having information representing the current position or the ever-present physical position (e.g., longitude and latitude) of the electronic paper display device 1. The satellite positioning information in the present embodiment is information that represents the current position of the electronic paper display apparatus 1 or the physical position (e.g., longitude and latitude) that has appeared once calculated by the control unit 14 according to the satellite positioning signal.
The storage unit 17 at least stores identification warning information 131 and/or satellite positioning information 132 (as shown in fig. 4A to 4D). The identification warning information 131 may be a prompt or warning information (e.g., a prompt or warning slogan), a basic information of a person (e.g., a contact phone, an address or a name), and/or an identification information of the electronic paper display device 1 (e.g., a product identification code, a manufacturing date, a warranty date, or a repair delivery location). The identification warning information 131 can also be set by the user, which is not limited in the present invention. The storage unit 17 is also used to store other display information (e.g., electronic book information, picture information, etc.). The control unit 14 may load the identification warning information 131 and other display information in the storage unit 17 to the electronic paper display unit 13. The wireless transmission unit 161 is used to transmit the signal loaded from the control unit 14.
In this embodiment, when the power detecting circuit 141 of the electronic paper display device 1 detects that the sub-power storage circuit 18 is activated to supply power, i.e. the sub-power storage circuit 18 supplies power to the control unit 14, the electronic paper display unit 13, the wireless transmission unit 161 of the wireless communication module 16, and the satellite positioning receiving unit 162, the control unit 14 will automatically load the satellite positioning information 132 and the identification warning information 131 in the storage unit 17 onto the electronic paper display unit 13, so that the identification warning information 131 and the satellite positioning information 132 are displayed.
In the present embodiment, the sub-power storage circuit 18 is activated when the main power unit 15 runs out of power or is interrupted, including but not limited to the following cases: when the electric power of the main electric power unit 15 is exhausted, when the electric connection of the main electric power unit 15 and the electronic paper display unit 13 or the control unit 14 is disconnected, or when the electronic paper display apparatus 1 is turned off.
In addition, when the control unit 14 loads the satellite positioning information 131 and the identification warning information 132 to the electronic paper display unit 13 and the power of the sub-power storage circuit 18 is exhausted, the electronic paper display unit 13 continuously displays the identification warning information 131 and the satellite positioning information 132. In order to further enhance the security, the electronic paper display device 1 may be designed such that the information displayed on the electronic paper display unit 13 cannot be overwritten and changed before the authentication is not passed, and the authentication related art and the operation thereof will be described together with the following embodiments.
Referring to fig. 3 to fig. 4C, three preferred operation modes of the electronic paper display device 1 will be described below. Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of power versus time of the main power unit 15 of the electronic paper display device 1 of fig. 1A. Fig. 4A is a schematic view of the electronic paper display device of fig. 1B displaying information and transmitting signals in a first mode. Fig. 4B is a schematic view of the electronic paper display device in fig. 1B displaying information in a second mode. Fig. 4C is a schematic diagram of the electronic paper display device of fig. 1B displaying information and transmitting signals in a third mode. Fig. 4D is a schematic diagram of the electronic paper display device of fig. 1B displaying information and transmitting signals in a fourth mode.
As shown in fig. 3 to 4D, in the present embodiment, when the main power unit 15 (P1) stops supplying power to the control unit 14 (for example, when the power of the main power unit 15 (P1) is exhausted or suddenly interrupted), the sub power storage circuit 18 (P2) is switched to supply power to the control unit 14, the electronic paper display unit 13 and the wireless transmission unit 161 and the satellite positioning receiving unit 162 of the wireless communication module 16, and the electronic paper display device 1 enters the first mode M1, and the control unit 14 loads the satellite positioning information 132 generated according to the satellite positioning signal and/or the identification warning information 131 in the storage unit 17 onto the electronic paper display unit 13 to display the identification warning information 131 and the satellite positioning information 132. That is, in the electronic paper display device 1 in the first mode M1, the electronic paper display unit 13 displays the identification warning information 131 and/or the satellite positioning information 132. The display positions of the identification warning data 131 and the satellite positioning information 132 on the electronic paper display unit 13 can be adjusted according to actual requirements, and the invention is not limited.
In addition, in the present embodiment, the power capacity stored or provided by the sub-power storage circuit 18 (P2) is the capacity or power interval required by the electronic paper display unit 13 to update the display once. The maximum amount of electricity stored in the sub-electricity storage circuit 18 (P2) can be adjusted according to actual needs, and is not limited in the present invention. The amount of power stored or provided by the secondary power storage circuit 18 (P2) may be 3%, 10%, 15%, or 20% of the total or maximum stored power of the primary power unit 15 (P1).
In addition, in the first mode M1, the control unit 14 loads the identification warning data 131 of the electronic paper display device 1 and the satellite positioning information 132 onto the electronic paper display unit 13, so that the electronic paper display unit 13 displays the identification warning data 131 and the satellite positioning information 132, and the control unit 14 controls the wireless transmission unit 161 to transmit the satellite positioning signal indicating the position of the electronic paper display device 1 (the transmitted satellite positioning signal indicates a signal having information indicating the current position or the past physical position of the electronic paper display device 1). Therefore, the power capacity stored or provided by the sub-power storage circuit 18 is the power capacity or power interval required by the wireless transmission unit 161 to transmit the satellite positioning signal and the identification warning information 131 of the electronic paper display device 1 at least once and the electronic paper display unit 13 to update the display at least once.
The satellite positioning signal and the identification warning information 131 of the electronic paper display device 1 sent by the wireless transmission unit 161 can be received by another electronic device C. Therefore, the owner or other persons of the electronic paper display device 1 can know the current position of the electronic paper display device 1 or the physical position that has appeared at a specific time point.
In addition, the electronic device C can be a remote server, another mobile device (tablet or smart phone), or a personal computer (desktop or notebook computer); the wireless transmission unit 18 may send the identification warning information 131 and/or the satellite positioning signal of the electronic paper display device 1 to the electronic device C by sending an email, an SMS message, or communication software (App) information.
When the electronic paper display device 1 is not recharged after entering the first mode M1 and the power of the sub-power storage circuit 18 is continuously consumed, the electronic paper display device 1 then enters the second mode M2. The electronic paper display unit 13 continues to display the identification warning information 131 and the satellite positioning information 132 in the second mode M2. Even in the case where the sub-power storage circuit 18 runs out of power or is about to run out of power, the identification warning information 131 and the satellite positioning information 132 are continuously displayed on the electronic paper display unit 13. Therefore, even if the electronic paper display device 1 is picked up by the third person when the power is exhausted, the pickup person can still know the owner of the electronic paper display device 1 and the contact way thereof through the identification warning information 131 on the electronic paper display unit 13, so that the pickup person can be conveniently contacted and returned with the owner of the electronic paper display device 1; and the satellite positioning information 132 displayed on the electronic paper display unit 13 may also remind the person who has been picked up, and the owner or other persons of the electronic paper display device 1 may already know the current position of the electronic paper display device 1, thereby reducing the incentive for the person who has been picked up to encroach on the electronic paper display device 1.
Then, if the electronic paper display device 1 is powered on again for charging, or the main power unit 15 is electrically connected to the control unit 14 and the electronic paper display unit 13 again, or the electronic paper display device 1 is powered on again, the sub power storage circuit 18 stores power again, and the sub power storage circuit 18 supplies power to the control unit 14, the electronic paper display unit 13, the wireless transmission unit 161 of the wireless communication module 16, and the satellite positioning receiving unit 162. Meanwhile, the electronic paper display device 1 enters the third mode M3. That is, the power detecting circuit 141 detects that the sub-power storage unit 18 is below the preset first power threshold TH1Rises to or above the first power threshold TH1And is less than a preset second power threshold TH2At this time, the control unit 14 controls the wireless transmission unit 161 to resend another satellite positioning signal and/or identification warning information 131 of the location of the electronic paper display apparatus 1, and the electronic apparatus C can receive the satellite positioning signal and the identification warning information 131, so that the owner or other people of the electronic paper display apparatus 1 can know the current location of the electronic paper display apparatus 1 or the physical location that has appeared at a specific time point again through the electronic apparatus C.
In the present embodiment, the first power threshold TH1And a second power threshold TH2All of them can be preset threshold values, and can be adjusted according to actual requirements, and the invention is not limited in this respect. For example, the first power threshold TH1Which may be 1% of the total or maximum stored charge of the main power unit 15, and a second power threshold TH2May be set to 20% of the total or maximum stored charge of the main power unit 15, while in other embodiments the first power threshold TH1Or 3% of the total or maximum stored charge of the main power unit 15, and a second power threshold TH2The total charge or the maximum stored charge of the main power unit 15 is adjusted to 15% power or 10% power.
Then, if the electronic paper display device 1 is continuously charged in the third mode M3 to make the main power unit 15, or the main power unit 15 is reconnected and the power is sufficient, the main power unit 15 supplies power, and the electronic paper display device 1 enters the fourth mode M4. That is, when the power detecting circuit 141 detects that the power of the main power unit 15 is greater than or equal to the predetermined second power threshold TH2In the meantime, the main power unit 15 supplies power to the control unit 14 again, the control unit 14 controls the wireless transmission unit 161 to continuously transmit the satellite positioning signal and/or the identification warning information 131 of the position of the electronic paper display device 1 at a fixed time interval, and the electronic device C can also receive the satellite positioning signal and/or the identification warning information 131, so that the owner or other people of the electronic paper display device 1 can know the current position of the electronic paper display device 1 or the physical position that has appeared at a certain specific time point at the fixed time interval through the electronic device C, thereby enabling the owner or other people of the electronic paper display device 1 to track the electronic paper display device 1, and improving the chance that the electronic paper display device 1 is found.
In addition, since the control unit 14 controls the storage unit 17 to continuously record the moving track of the electronic paper display device 1, the other satellite positioning signal retransmitted by the wireless transmission unit 161 to the electronic paper display device 1 may further include the moving track information of the electronic paper display device 1 recorded by the control unit 14 controlling the storage unit 17. In this case, even if the physical position of the electronic paper display device 1 in any mode is different from the physical position of the electronic paper display device 1 in the previous mode (i.e., the electronic paper display device 1 is moved), the owner or other persons of the electronic paper display device 1 can know the nearest position of the electronic paper display device 1.
In addition, to improve the security, the electronic paper display device 1 in the embodiment may further include an authentication unit 19. The authentication unit 19 is at least electrically connected to the control unit 14 and receives authentication identification information input by a user, and when the authentication identification information passes the authentication of the authentication unit 19, a message is sent to notify the control unit 14, so that the control unit 14 can update the display information displayed by the electronic paper display unit 13, and the wireless transmission unit 161 can stop sending the satellite positioning signal of the electronic paper display device 1. Here, the display information displayed by the electronic paper display unit 13 may be updated by changing the information content of the originally displayed identification warning information 131 and satellite positioning information 132, or by stopping or turning off the electronic paper display unit 13, so that the electronic paper display unit 13 does not display any identification warning information 131 and satellite positioning information 132. In addition, the authentication identification information of the embodiment may be password authentication information input by the user, for example: english, numeric code, or biometric data identification information of the user, such as: biometric authentication information such as fingerprints, irises, palmprints, facial features, etc. In addition, the authentication recognition control performed by the authentication unit 19 and the control unit 14 in the present embodiment can be performed in any one, two or three of the first mode M1, the third mode M3 and the fourth mode M4.
The invention also provides another preferred embodiment, which is also an electronic paper display device, please refer to fig. 5.
