Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more apparent, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, it will be appreciated by those of ordinary skill in the art that numerous technical details are set forth in order to provide a better understanding of the present application in various embodiments of the present invention. However, the technical solution claimed in the present application can be implemented without these technical details and various changes and modifications based on the following embodiments.
A first embodiment of the present invention relates to a flexible touch screen, as shown in fig. 1, fig. 2 or fig. 3, the flexible touch screen at least includes: a plurality of distance detection modules 1 and a screen body 2. Wherein, a plurality of distance detection module 1 sets up in the back of screen body 2, and a plurality of distance detection module 1 is used for acquireing the distance value between screen body 2 and the mesa. In this embodiment, the flexible touch screen further includes a microprocessor chip, which serves as a processing module and is configured to determine whether to start the touch function of the screen body 2 according to a distance value between the screen body 2 and the table top. The implementation details of the flexible touch screen of the present embodiment are specifically described below, and the following description is only provided for the convenience of understanding, and is not necessary to implement the present embodiment.
Specifically, the distance detection modules 1 may be infrared distance sensors, optical distance sensors, ultrasonic distance sensors, etc., and the number and positions of the distance detection modules 1 may be set according to actual needs. For example, the screen body 2 is circular (as shown in fig. 1), the number of the distance detection modules 1 is 1, and the position of the distance detection module 1 can be the position of the center of a circle. For example, the screen body 2 is elliptical (as shown in fig. 2), the number of the distance detection modules 1 is 2, and the positions of the distance detection modules 1 may be the positions of the focal points of the ellipse or the two ends of the major axis. For example, the screen body 2 is semicircular (as shown in fig. 3), the number of the distance detection modules 1 is 3, and the positions where the distance detection modules 1 are arranged can be two ends of the diameter and the vertex of the semicircular arc. However, the above examples are merely illustrative, and the shape of the panel body 2, the number of the distance detection modules 1, and the installation position are not limited in any way in the present embodiment.
More specifically, the processing module establishes wired communication connection with the distance detection module 1 and the screen body 2, and the processing module can determine whether to start the touch function of the screen body according to the change of the distance value. If the processing module detects that the distance value is changed from large to small, the processing module indicates that the user is making the screen body approach the table top, the screen body is ready to be placed on the operation table, and the processing module judges that the touch function of the screen body needs to be started so as to respond to the touch operation of the user in time; if the processing module detects that the distance value is changed from small to large, the fact that the user is making the screen body far away from the table board to prepare for taking up the screen body is indicated, and at the moment, the processing module judges that the touch function of the screen body is not required to be started so as to avoid inaccurate touch and mistaken touch events.
In this embodiment, the specific manner of determining whether to open the touch function of the screen body 2 by the processing module according to the distance value between the screen body 2 and the table top is as follows: the processing module is pre-stored with a distance threshold, for example, the distance threshold may be between 0 and 0.2 cm. The processing module judges whether the distance values of the distance detection modules 1 are all smaller than or equal to a distance threshold value, and if the judgment result is yes, the processing module controls the touch function of the screen body 2 to be in an open state; if the judgment result is negative (that is, the distance value of a certain distance detection module 1 is greater than the distance threshold), the processing module controls the touch function of the screen body 2 to be in the closed state. The following are exemplified:
(1) the 2 tiling of screen body are placed on the operation panel:
at this time, the screen body 2 is entirely attached to the console, and the distance value between the screen body 2 and the table top detected by each distance detection module 1 meets the condition that the distance value is less than or equal to the distance threshold value. Therefore, the judgment result of the processing module is that the processing module controls the touch function of the screen body 2 to be in the on state. If the touch function of the front screen body 2 is in the off state, the processing module controls the screen body 2 to start the touch function.
(2) The screen body 2 is completely suspended:
at this time, all areas of the screen body 2 are all at a certain distance from the operating table, and the distance value between the screen body 2 and the table top, which is detected by each distance detection module 1, meets the condition that the distance value is greater than the distance threshold value. Therefore, if the judgment result of the processing module is negative, the processing module controls the touch function of the screen body 2 to be in the closed state. If the touch function of the front screen body 2 is in the on state, the processing module controls the screen body 2 to close the touch function.
(3) The screen body 2 is partially suspended:
at this time, a part of the area of the screen body 2 is away from the operation table by a certain distance, and a part of the area is tightly attached to the operation table. For convenience of explanation, an area distant from the console is referred to as a first area, and an area adjacent to the console is referred to as a second area. The distance detection module 1 installed in the first area detects that the distance value between the screen body 2 and the table top meets the condition that the distance value is larger than the distance threshold value. And the distance detection module 1 is arranged in the second area, and detects that the distance value between the screen body 2 and the table top meets the condition that the distance value is less than or equal to a distance threshold value. Therefore, if the judgment result of the processing module is still negative, the processing module controls the touch function of the screen body 2 to be in the closed state. If the touch function of the front screen body 2 is in the on state, the processing module controls the screen body 2 to close the touch function.
Wherein, because each distance detection module 1 homoenergetic enough detects the distance value between screen body 2 and the mesa, therefore the state of placing (whether place at the operation panel, unsettled or partly unsettled) of screen body 2 all can be known by processing module in real time, processing module also can be according to the distance value that each distance detection module 1 detected, when the state of placing of screen body 2 changes, in time control screen body 2 responds, makes the touch-control function of screen body 2 take place corresponding attitude and changes.
Compared with the prior art, in the embodiment, whether the touch function of the flexible touch screen is started or not can be determined according to the distance value between the screen body and the table top, and the situations of inaccurate touch and false alarm of touch events under the suspension condition of the screen body can be avoided.
A second embodiment of the invention relates to a flexible touch screen. The second embodiment is substantially the same as the first embodiment, and mainly differs therefrom in that: in the second embodiment of the present invention, the flexible touch screen is applied to an electronic device, and a main processor of the electronic device is used as a processing module to determine whether to start the touch function of the screen body 2 according to a distance value between the screen body 2 and the table top. This increases the flexibility and range of application of embodiments of the present invention. The electronic device can be a mobile phone, a computer, a tablet computer, an electronic reader and other terminals.
Specifically, the main processor of the electronic device may directly establish communication connection with the screen body 2 and each distance detection module 1, so as to obtain a distance value between the screen body 2 and the table top detected by each distance detection module 1, and determine whether to start the touch function of the screen body 2 according to the distance value.
In this embodiment, the flexible touch screen is separately provided with a microprocessor chip, and the microprocessor chip is at least in communication connection with the screen body 2. The main processor of the electronic device is in communication connection with the micro-processing chip and the distance detection modules 1, after the main processor obtains the distance value between the screen body 2 and the table top detected by the distance detection modules 1, whether the touch function of the screen body 2 needs to be started or not is judged according to the distance value, corresponding control information is generated according to the judgment result and sent to the micro-processing chip, and the micro-processing chip controls the touch function of the screen body 2 to be started or closed according to the control information. Of course, in actual operation, the microprocessor chip may also establish communication connection with each distance detection module 1. Therefore, the main processor can acquire the distance value between the screen body 2 and the table top detected by each distance detection module 1 from the micro-processing chip, so as to execute subsequent judgment and control operation. However, the above examples are only for illustration, and the connection manner between the main processor of the electronic device and the flexible touch screen is not limited in this embodiment.
The third embodiment of the invention relates to a flexible touch screen. The third embodiment is a refinement of the first or second embodiment, and the main refinement is that: in the third embodiment of the present invention, the panel body 2 is polygonal, and a plurality of distance detection modules are disposed at each corner of the polygon. Thus, a specific implementation form of the screen body 2 and the arrangement position of the distance detection module is provided, and the flexibility of the embodiment of the invention is improved.
Specifically, the screen body 2 is rectangular as is common in the prior art. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the screen body 2 is described as having a rectangular shape. As shown in fig. 4, the flexible touch screen is provided with 4 distance detection modules 1, and the 4 distance detection modules 1 are respectively disposed at each corner of the rectangle. Therefore, the processing module can acquire representative measurement data, and can achieve the effect of attractive and symmetrical structure without complex internal structure design. However, the above examples are merely illustrative, and in actual operation, the shape of the screen body 2 may be determined according to actual situations, for example, the screen body 2 may also be triangular, pentagonal, hexagonal, etc., and the specific shape of the screen body 2 is not limited in this embodiment.
More specifically, a distance detection module 1 may be further provided at a central position of the screen body 2, so that the processing module can acquire more representative measurement data. For example, when the screen body 2 is rectangular, a distance detection module 1 may be disposed at the intersection of the diagonals of the screen body 2. Therefore, the situation that the periphery of the screen body 2 is in contact with the operating platform and the middle of the screen body is arched can be avoided, the processing module also considers that the screen body 2 is tiled on the operating platform, and the misjudgment rate of the processing module is effectively reduced.
The fourth embodiment of the invention relates to a flexible touch screen. The fourth embodiment is an improvement of the first, second, or third embodiment, and the main improvement is that: in the fourth embodiment of the present invention, the screen body 2 is divided into at least two touch areas, and each touch area corresponds to at least one distance detection module 1. Thus, a specific implementation form of the arrangement positions of the screen body 2 and the distance detection module 1 is provided, and the flexibility of the embodiment of the invention is increased.
Specifically, when the screen body 2 is circular, as shown in fig. 5, the screen body 2 may be divided into two touch areas by using a dotted line as a boundary line, and each touch area corresponds to 2 distance detection modules. When the screen body 2 is rectangular, as shown in fig. 6, the screen body 2 may be divided into four touch areas by using a dotted line as a boundary line, and each touch area corresponds to 1 distance detection module. Therefore, when the number and the positions of the distance detection modules 1 are designed, technicians can divide areas according to actual use requirements of the flexible touch screen. For example, the probability that a certain touch area of the flexible touch screen is touched is relatively low, and the number of the distance detection modules 1 arranged in the touch area is relatively small.
Compared with any of the above embodiments, the embodiment has the advantages that the distance detection module is more flexible in arrangement, and the device use efficiency is higher.
A fifth embodiment of the present invention relates to an electronic device, including the flexible touch screen mentioned in any of the above embodiments. The electronic device can be a mobile phone, a computer, a tablet computer, an electronic reader and other terminals.
A sixth embodiment of the present invention relates to an electronic apparatus, as shown in fig. 7. The sixth embodiment is an improvement on the fifth embodiment, and the main improvement lies in that: in a sixth embodiment of the present invention, an electronic device further includes: the detector 3 and the reel 4 are configured to store the panel body 2 by the reel 4, and the service life of the panel body 2 can be extended. And the processing module controls the starting time of each distance detection module according to the detection information of the detector 3, which is beneficial to reasonable planning of electric energy and provides a foundation for realizing energy conservation.
Specifically, when the flexible touch panel is not used, the panel body 2 is stored and rolled up by the roll 4. The detector 3 may be a physical button, and the detector 3 is mounted on the back of the screen body 2. Thus, when the screen body 2 is not unfolded, the physical keys are restrained by the screen body 2 and are in a pressed state. When the screen body 2 is unfolded, the physical keys are not bound by the screen body 2 and are in a release state. Thus, the development state information of the screen body 2 acquired by the detector 3 is: the screen body 2 is unfolded or the screen body 2 is not unfolded. Therefore, the processing module can start each distance detection module 1 according to the expansion state information of the screen body 2 acquired by the detector 3 when the screen body 2 is expanded, and energy is saved. In actual operation, the detector 3 may be a distance detector mounted on the back surface of the screen body 2, and when the screen body 2 is not unfolded, the distance value detected by the distance detector is small. When the screen body 2 is unfolded, the distance value detected by the distance detector is large, so that whether the screen body 2 is unfolded or not can be judged according to the detected distance value, and the unfolding state information of the screen body 2 is acquired. Wherein, because flexible touch screen itself is equipped with a plurality of distance detection module, therefore when actual operation, can select one of them distance detection module of a plurality of distance detection module to replace the function of detector 3 to can reduce the use of device, practice thrift the cost of manufacture of flexible touch screen.
In the present embodiment, the detector 3 is an angle detector 3, and is attached to the drum to obtain the rotation angle of the drum. Therefore, the detector 3 can calculate the unfolding area of the screen body 2 according to the rotation angle of the winding drum and the circumference of the winding drum, and the unfolding area of the screen body 2 is used as unfolding state information, so that the processing module can control the distance detection modules 1 in the unfolding area to be opened according to the unfolding state information of the screen body 2 acquired by the detector 3, energy is saved, and the intelligent degree is high.
As described above, the detector 3 may be provided separately on the panel body 2 or separately on the roll 4, and thus the specific implementation forms of the roll 4 and the detector 3 are not limited in this embodiment.
A seventh embodiment of the present invention relates to an electronic apparatus, as shown in fig. 8. The seventh embodiment is improved on the basis of the fifth embodiment, and the main improvement lies in that: in the seventh embodiment of the present invention, the electronic apparatus further includes the detector 3 and the case 5, and the case 5 is used to house the panel body 2, so that the service life of the panel body 2 can be extended. And the processing module controls the starting time of each distance detection module according to the detection information of the detector 3, which is beneficial to reasonable planning of electric energy and provides a foundation for realizing energy conservation.
In this embodiment, the flexible touch panel is accommodated in the housing 5, and the detector 3 is disposed on the drum 4. The detector 3 is in communication connection with the processing module, and the detector 3 is used for acquiring the expansion state information of the flexible touch screen, so that the processing module can judge whether to start each distance detection module 1 according to the expansion state information. Wherein, after the distance detection module is started, the distance value between the screen body 2 and the table top is obtained.
Specifically, the housing 5 is provided with a housing mechanism for housing the flexible touch panel in the housing 5. For example, the receiving mechanism may be a reel mechanism. More specifically, the detector 3 may be a physical button, and the detector 3 is mounted on the rear surface of the screen body 2. Thus, when the screen body 2 is not unfolded, the physical keys are restrained by the screen body 2 and are in a pressed state. When the screen body 2 is unfolded, the physical keys are not bound by the screen body 2 and are in a release state. Thus, the development state information of the screen body 2 acquired by the detector 3 is: the screen body 2 is unfolded or the screen body 2 is not unfolded. In this way, the detector 3 is not only less costly, but also easier to install.
In this embodiment, the detector 3 is provided in the storage mechanism, and is relatively concealed, so that the appearance of the electronic device can be ensured. The detector 3 is used for detecting the storage state parameters of the storage mechanism and acquiring the unfolding state information of the flexible touch screen according to the storage state parameters.
Specifically, when the storage mechanism may be a reel mechanism, the detector 3 may be an angle detector and is configured to acquire a rotation angle of the reel mechanism. In this way, the storage state parameter of the reel mechanism is the rotation angle. The detector 3 can determine whether the screen body 2 is drawn out or not according to whether the rotation angle is detected or not. For example, when the user desires to use the screen body 2, the user pulls out the screen body 2 from the housing 5, the reel of the reel mechanism rotates, and the detector 3 detects the rotation angle. Thus, the detector 3 recognizes that the screen body 2 is unfolded when the rotation angle is detected. Otherwise, the screen body 2 is deemed not to be unfolded. Thus, the development state information of the screen body 2 acquired by the detector 3 is: the screen body 2 is unfolded or the screen body 2 is not unfolded.
More specifically, the detector 3 can also calculate the expansion area of the screen body 2 according to the rotation angle, and the expansion area of the screen body 2 is used as the expansion state information, so that the processing module can control the distance detection modules 1 in the expansion area to be started according to the expansion state information of the screen body 2 acquired by the detector 3, and the method is energy-saving and high in intelligent degree.
As described above, the detector 3 may be provided separately to the panel body 2 or to the housing mechanism of the housing 5, and thus the specific implementation form of the detector 3 is not limited in this embodiment.
An eighth embodiment of the present invention relates to an electronic apparatus, as shown in fig. 9. The eighth embodiment is substantially the same as the seventh embodiment, and mainly differs therefrom in that: the flexible touch screen is accommodated in the housing 5 in a different manner from the detector 3.
Specifically, the flexible touch screen is accommodated in the housing 5 in a drawing manner. For example, a drawing mechanism is arranged between the flexible touch screen and the housing 5. When the flexible touch screen is accommodated in the shell 5, the drawing mechanism is in a contracted state, and when the flexible touch screen is drawn out from the shell 5, the drawing mechanism is in an expanded state.
In the present embodiment, the detector 3 includes a first detecting unit 31 and a second detecting unit 32. The first detecting unit 31 is disposed on the housing 5, and the second detecting unit 32 is disposed on the drawing edge of the flexible touch screen. The detector 3 is configured to obtain a distance value between the pull edge of the flexible touch screen and the housing 5 through the first detection unit 31 and the second detection unit 32, and obtain the expansion state information of the flexible touch screen according to the distance value between the pull edge of the flexible touch screen and the housing 5. For example, the detector 3 may be a penetrating acoustic ranging sensor. One of a transmitter or a receiver of the transmission acoustic wave distance measuring sensor serves as a first detecting unit 31, and the other serves as a second detecting unit 32. However, the above examples are merely illustrative, and the present embodiment does not limit the specific implementation form of the detector 3 at all.
A ninth embodiment of the present invention relates to an electronic apparatus. The ninth embodiment is an improvement of any one of the fifth to seventh embodiments, and is mainly characterized in that: in a ninth embodiment of the present invention, an electronic apparatus further includes: the prompt module enables a user to acquire timely and effective information, and is favorable for prompting the user to place the flexible touch screen on the table board, so that the touch function can be conveniently opened subsequently, and the normal use of the touch function is ensured.
Specifically, each distance detection module 1 can detect the distance value between the screen body 2 and the table top, so that in the use process of the screen body 2, the placing state (whether the screen body is placed on an operation table or is suspended or partially suspended) of the screen body 2 can be known by the processing module in real time. The processing module can control the screen body 2 to respond in time when the placement state of the screen body 2 changes, so that the touch function of the screen body 2 changes correspondingly in state, and control the prompt module in communication connection with the processing module to send prompt information in time after the touch function of the screen body 2 changes in state so as to prompt a user. Wherein, the prompt module can be pilot lamp, display screen, bee calling organ, voice broadcast device etc..
A tenth embodiment of the present invention relates to a method for controlling a flexible touch screen, and the specific flow is shown in fig. 10. Wherein, flexible touch screen includes: the screen comprises a screen body and a plurality of distance detection modules; a plurality of distance detection module sets up in the back of screen body. The following describes the implementation steps of the control method in the present embodiment:
Specifically speaking, the flexible touch screen further comprises a micro-processing chip, the micro-processing chip is respectively connected with the distance detection module and the screen body in a wired communication mode, the micro-processing chip is used as a processing module to control the distance detection modules to detect, and therefore the distance value between the screen body and the table top is obtained through the distance detection modules. The distance detection module can be an infrared distance sensor, an optical distance sensor, an ultrasonic distance sensor and the like.
Specifically, the processing module may determine whether to start the touch function of the screen body according to a change in the distance value. If the processing module detects that the distance value is changed from large to small, the processing module indicates that the user is making the screen body approach the table top, the screen body is ready to be placed on the operation table, and the processing module judges that the touch function of the screen body needs to be started so as to respond to the touch operation of the user in time; if the processing module detects that the distance value is changed from small to large, the fact that the user is making the screen body far away from the table board to prepare for taking up the screen body is indicated, and at the moment, the processing module judges that the touch function of the screen body is not required to be started so as to avoid inaccurate touch and mistaken touch events.
In this embodiment, the processing module determines whether to open the touch function of the screen body according to the distance value between the screen body and the table top, and the method includes: the processing module is pre-stored with a distance threshold, for example, the distance threshold may be between 0 and 0.2 cm. The processing module judges whether the distance values of the distance detection modules are all smaller than or equal to a distance threshold value, and if the judgment result is yes, the processing module controls the touch function of the screen body to be in an open state; if the judgment result is negative (namely, the distance value of a certain distance detection module is larger than the distance threshold), the processing module controls the touch function of the screen body to be in a closed state. The following are exemplified:
(1) the tiling of screen body is placed on the operation panel:
at the moment, the screen body is completely attached to the operating table, and the distance value between the screen body and the table top detected by each distance detection module meets the condition that the distance value is smaller than or equal to the distance threshold value. Therefore, the judgment result of the processing module is that the touch function of the screen body is controlled to be in the open state by the processing module. If the touch function of the current screen body is in a closed state, the processing module controls the screen body to start the touch function.
(2) The screen body is all suspended:
at the moment, all areas of the screen body are at a certain distance from the operating table, and the distance value between the screen body and the table top detected by each distance detection module meets the condition that the distance value is greater than the distance threshold value. Therefore, if the judgment result of the processing module is negative, the processing module controls the touch function of the screen body to be in a closed state. If the touch function of the current screen body is in an open state, the processing module controls the screen body to close the touch function.
(3) The screen body part is unsettled:
at this time, the screen body part is at a certain distance from the operating platform, and the part of the screen body part is tightly attached to the operating platform. For convenience of explanation, an area distant from the console is referred to as a first area, and an area adjacent to the console is referred to as a second area. The distance detection module arranged in the first area detects that the distance value between the screen body and the table top meets the condition that the distance value is larger than the distance threshold value. And the distance detection module is arranged in the second area, and the detected distance value between the screen body and the table top meets the condition that the distance value is less than or equal to a distance threshold value. Therefore, the judgment result of the processing module is still negative, and the processing module controls the touch function of the screen body to be in a closed state. If the touch function of the current screen body is in an open state, the processing module controls the screen body to close the touch function.
Wherein, because each distance detection module homoenergetic detects the distance value between screen body and the mesa, therefore the state of placing (whether place at the operation panel, unsettled or partly unsettled) of screen body all can be known by processing module in real time, and processing module also can be according to the distance value that each distance detection module detected, when the state of placing of screen body changes, in time controls the screen body and makes the response, makes the touch-control function of screen body take place correspondingly the state change.
Compared with the prior art, in the embodiment, whether the touch function of the flexible touch screen is started or not can be determined according to the distance value between the screen body and the table top, and the situations of inaccurate touch and false alarm of touch events under the suspension condition of the screen body can be avoided.

If the target object corresponds to a touch area, the step of starting the touch function of the screen body is carried out, and the step of starting the touch function of the screen body is specifically to start the touch function of the touch area corresponding to the target object. The following are exemplified:

More specifically, the processing module may further determine whether each distance detection module having a distance value smaller than or equal to the distance threshold is capable of enclosing an area according to the setting position of each distance detection module, and if the distance detection module is capable of enclosing an area, the processing module starts the touch function in the enclosed area in the step of entering the step of starting the touch function of the screen body. The following are exemplified:
as shown in fig. 12, the screen body 2 is rectangular, and 4 distance detection modules A, B, C, D are respectively disposed at each corner of the rectangle. If the distance value obtained by the distance detection module B, C, D is less than or equal to the preset distance threshold, the processing module may enclose an area, i.e., a shadow area in the drawing, according to the position set by the distance detection module B, C, D, and the processing module controls the screen body to start the touch function of the shadow area in the drawing.
