Please refer to fig. 5, which is a schematic diagram illustrating a control system of an inflatable cushion module of a head-mounted metaverse display device according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the inflatable cushion module 4 of the head-mounted virtual reality display apparatus 1 further has a control system, which includes a control module 49, a battery 491 and a release valve 48, wherein the control module 49 is electrically connected to the gas pump 42, the gas pressure sensor 44, the contact sensor 46 and the release valve 48, and respectively receives the signals from the air pressure sensor 44 and the contact sensor 46, and controls the air pump 42 to be driven or stopped according to the received signals, and when the control module 49 of the control system drives the gas pump 42 to operate, the gas pump 42 will pump the gas into the gas channel 43, and then the gas is introduced into the inflatable cushion 41, and monitors the gas pressure inside thereof through a gas pressure sensor 44 provided in the gas passage 43, and transmits a disable signal or an enable signal to the control unit 49 when the threshold value is higher or lower than a specific threshold value interval, so as to drive or stop the operation of the gas pump 42 again. As mentioned above, the release valve 48 is a pressure adjusting mechanism, which is disposed on the side surface of the frame 20 of the display body 2 (as shown in fig. 1A and 1B), is in communication with the air channel 43 and the inflatable cushion 41, and is electrically connected to the control module 49, so that when the control module 49 receives a pressure release signal transmitted by the contact sensor 46, it can correspondingly control the release valve 48 to release pressure. The position of the control module 49 is disposed inside the frame 20 of the display main body 2, for example, it can be disposed inside the adjacent release valve 48 or adjacent to the gas pump 42, but not limited thereto. The battery 491 can be a lithium battery or a mercury battery, and is disposed inside the frame 20 of the display body 2, and can be disposed adjacent to the inside of the release valve 48 or other suitable position.
Referring to fig. 1A, fig. 1B, fig. 2 and fig. 5, when the user fits the head-mounted virtual reality display device 1 of the present disclosure on the head of the user, the position of the positioning strap 3 can be adjusted to enable the display body 2 to be disposed on the face of the user, and at this time, the inflatable cushion module 4 disposed in the frame 20 of the display body 2 contacts the face of the user, in this embodiment, the cushion 47 disposed on the outermost layer contacts the face of the user, and the contact sensor 46 senses the generation of an external pressure, so that the contact sensor 46 sends an enable signal to the control module 49 in response to the external pressure, and the control module 49 drives the air pump 42 to actuate according to the received enable signal, so that the air is introduced into the inflatable cushion 41 through the air passage 43, and the inflatable cushion 41 is inflated to expand, so that the foam body 45 can adjust its shape according to the external pressure of the user's face and the expansion of the inflatable cushion. In addition, when the gas pump 42 is driven and fills the inflatable cushion 41 with gas, the control module 49 also controls the air pressure sensor 44 to sense the air pressure inside the inflatable cushion 41, so that when the air pressure sensor 44 senses that the internal pressure of the inflatable cushion 41 is higher than a specific threshold interval, the air pressure sensor 44 sends a disable signal to the control module 49, the control module 49 can control the gas pump 42 to stop operating according to the disable signal, so as to prevent the face discomfort of the user caused by the excessive pressure of the inflatable cushion 41, of course, if the internal pressure of the inflatable cushion 41 is detected to be lower than the specific threshold interval, the pressure sensor 44 also sends an enable signal to the control module 49, and the control module 49 can drive the gas pump 42 again to operate according to the enable signal. Therefore, the inflation degree of the inflatable cushion 41 can be intelligently adjusted by detecting and controlling the air pressure sensor 44, so that when a user wears the inflatable cushion, the foam body 45 can correspondingly adjust the shape of the inflatable cushion 41 along with the inflation degree of the inflatable cushion, the foam body is close to the face of the user, the problem of non-fitting cannot be caused, and meanwhile, the wearing experience of buffering, softness, fluffiness and comfortable fitting of the user can be provided due to inflation of the inflatable cushion 41.
In addition, the inflatable cushion module 4 of the present embodiment has an air pressure adjusting function. As shown in fig. 1A, 1B, 2 and 5, the inflatable cushion module 4 of the present embodiment includes a release valve 48, which is but not limited to a switchable valve structure, disposed on a side surface of the frame 20 of the display body 2. As shown in fig. 2, the visible gas channel 43 may further include a release valve opening 43a, and the inflatable cushion 41 may also include another release valve opening 41a, which are disposed and communicated with the release valve 48. As mentioned above, the release valve 48 is electrically connected to the control module 46, and is used for releasing the gas in the inflatable cushion 41 out of the head-mounted virtual reality display device 1 through the release valve opening 41a and the release valve opening 43a of the gas channel 43 by the release valve 48. Therefore, when the user starts to take off the head mounted virtual reality display device 1, the contact sensor 46 senses that the external pressure provided by the face of the user starts to disappear, and sends an energy prohibiting signal and a pressure releasing signal to the control module 49, and after the control module 49 receives the energy prohibiting signal and the pressure releasing signal, the control module 49 controls the gas pump 42 to stop operating according to the energy prohibiting signal, and further drives the release valve 48 to open according to the pressure releasing signal, so that at least part of the gas in the inflated and expanded inflatable cushion 41 is released out of the head mounted virtual reality display device 1 through the release valve 48. Therefore, the inflatable cushion module 4 can automatically and intelligently adjust the air pressure inside the inflatable cushion module according to the use state, so that the reduction of the service life caused by the long-time inflation state of the inflatable cushion 41 can be avoided, and the head-mounted virtual reality display device 1 can be worn and used by a user in the most comfortable state.
In other embodiments, the release valve 48 may be a knob (not shown), but not limited thereto. The release valve 48 is manually actuated by tightening or loosening the knob to open or close the release valve 48. Therefore, a user can adjust the internal air pressure of the inflatable cushion module 4 through the knob, and the knob is unscrewed according to the requirement of the user, so that the release valve 48 is opened and communicated to the outside of the head-mounted virtual reality display device 1, and the air in the inflatable cushion 41 is released; after the pressure is adjusted to a proper value, the knob is tightened again to close the release valve 48, so as to prevent the gas from being released excessively and causing insufficient pressure. By means of the knob, the inflatable cushion 41 can be tightly attached to the face of the user and is not too tight, so that the user can wear the head-mounted virtual reality display device 1 in the most comfortable state.

FIGS. 9A to 9E are views showing the flow of the operation of the gas pump shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B. Referring to fig. 8 and 9A to 9E, the operation flow of the gas pump of the present invention is briefly described as follows. When the gas pump 42 is operated, the piezoelectric actuator 423 is actuated by a voltage to perform reciprocating vibration in the vertical direction with the support 4233 as a fulcrum. As shown in fig. 9A, when the piezoelectric actuator 423 is actuated by a voltage to vibrate downward, because the resonance sheet 422 is a light and thin sheet-like structure, when the piezoelectric actuator 423 vibrates, the resonance sheet 422 also vibrates vertically in a reciprocating manner along with the resonance, that is, the part of the resonance sheet 422 corresponding to the central recess 421c also deforms along with the bending vibration, that is, the part corresponding to the central recess 421c is the movable part 422a of the resonance sheet 422, so that when the piezoelectric actuator 423 vibrates in a downward bending manner, the movable part 422a of the resonance sheet 422 corresponding to the central recess 421c is driven by the bringing in and pushing of the gas and the vibration of the piezoelectric actuator 423, and along with the deformation of the piezoelectric actuator 423 in a downward bending vibration, the gas enters from at least one air inlet hole 421a of the air inlet plate 421 and is collected at the central recess 421c through at least one bus hole 421b, and then flows downward into the first chamber 420 through a hollow hole 422c of the resonance plate 422, which is provided corresponding to the central recess 421 c. Thereafter, the resonator plate 422 vibrates vertically and reciprocally due to the resonance caused by the vibration of the piezoelectric actuator 423, as shown in fig. 9B, at this time, the movable portion 422a of the resonator plate 422 also vibrates vertically and downwardly, and abuts against the protrusion 4231a of the suspension plate 4231 of the piezoelectric actuator 423, so that the distance between the confluence chambers between the region other than the protrusion 4231a of the suspension plate 4231 and the fixing portions 422B at both sides of the resonator plate 422 is not decreased, and the volume of the first chamber 420 is compressed by the deformation of the resonator plate 422, the middle flow space of the first chamber 420 is closed, the gas in the first chamber is pushed to flow to both sides, and further flows downward through the gap 4235 between the supports 4233 of the piezoelectric actuator 423. Then, as shown in fig. 9C, the movable portion 422a of the resonator plate 422 bends upward to vibrate and deform, and returns to the initial position, and the piezoelectric actuator 423 is driven by the voltage to vibrate upward, so as to press the volume of the first chamber 420, but at this time, since the piezoelectric actuator 423 is lifted upward, the gas in the first chamber 420 flows toward both sides, and the gas continuously enters from the at least one air inlet hole 421a of the air inlet plate 421 and then flows into the chamber formed by the central recess 421C. Then, as shown in fig. 9D, the resonance plate 422 resonates upward due to the upward vibration of the piezoelectric actuator 423, and the movable portion 422a of the resonance plate 422 vibrates upward, so as to slow down the gas from continuously entering from the at least one air inlet hole 421a of the air inlet plate 421, and then flows into the chamber formed by the central recess 421 c. Finally, as shown in fig. 9E, the movable portion 422a of the resonator plate 422 also returns to the initial position, so that when the resonator plate 422 performs vertical reciprocating vibration, the maximum distance of the vertical displacement can be increased by the gap h between the resonator plate 422 and the piezoelectric actuator 423, in other words, the gap h between the two structures can enable the resonator plate 422 to generate a larger vertical displacement at the time of resonance. Therefore, a pressure gradient is generated in the flow channel design of the gas pump 42 to make the gas flow at a high speed, and the gas is transmitted from the suction end to the discharge end through the impedance difference in the inlet and outlet directions of the flow channel to complete the gas transmission operation, even if the discharge end has the gas pressure, the gas can still be continuously pushed into the gas channel 43, and the silencing effect can be achieved, so that the gas pump 42 can generate the gas transmission from the outside to the inside by repeating the operation of the gas pump 42 in the figures 9A to 9E.
As mentioned above, the gas is introduced into the gas channel 43 by the actuation of the gas pump 42, so that the introduced gas flows into the inflatable cushion 41, and the inflatable cushion 41 is inflated and expanded, and the foam body 45 can also adjust its shape correspondingly with the expansion degree of the inflatable cushion 41, so that the foam body is close to the face of the user, and the problem of non-fitting is not generated, and meanwhile, because of the inflation and expansion of the inflatable cushion 41, the wearing experience of the user with buffering, softness, fluffiness and comfortable fitting can be provided. .
In summary, the present disclosure provides a head-mounted virtual reality display device, which can be widely applied to a wearable device worn on the face, so that the inflatable cushion module can automatically and intelligently inflate the inflatable cushion and expand the inflatable cushion by the external pressure generated when the user wears the head-mounted virtual reality display device on the face, and the foam body can be adjusted to fit and fix the face of the user according to the adjustment form, and can be adjusted according to different shapes of the face of the user, so as to be flexibly and comfortably wrapped and fixed. In addition, the inflatable cushion module has an air pressure adjusting function, and can automatically and intelligently adjust the internal air pressure according to the use state, so that the service life of the inflatable cushion can be prolonged, and a user can wear the head-mounted virtual reality display device under the most comfortable pressure. In addition, the user can manually adjust the internal pressure of the inflatable cushion by himself, so as to provide more convenient operation and wider application.
Various modifications may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
