Description

Portable self-generating switch, self-generating module thereof and signal transmitting method
Technical Field
The invention relates to a self-generating switch, in particular to a portable self-generating switch, a self-generating module thereof and a signal transmitting method.
Background
As an important electronic component, a switch occupies an indispensable position in the field of control of electrical equipment. The wired switch is only suitable for being used by electric equipment at a fixed position at present, and is more inconvenient to carry and use outdoors, namely, the use range of the wired switch has limitation, and the electric equipment cannot be controlled in any area. For consumers with higher and higher intelligentization requirements and pursuit of diversified lives, the wired switch obviously cannot meet the requirements of the consumers. Moreover, the existing switch mainly depends on the battery for power supply, a user needs to replace the battery within a certain period, and the switch is widely used, so that the demand for the battery is huge, a large amount of waste batteries are correspondingly caused, and the problem of environmental pollution is undoubtedly aggravated. Battery-powered switches also have the problem that when the switch is not used for a long time, there is a case where the switch is damaged by battery leakage.
Some rebound type from electricity generation wireless switch that has now can only adopt unilateral pressing or tilt motion, need to correspond moreover and set up a plurality of from the pressing that can only realize a plurality of positions of generating electricity device, in other words, the rebound type can't use same from electricity generation kernel to realize the transmission of a plurality of buttons with corresponding realization different control signal from the drive of generating electricity core. However, the cost of the self-generating wireless switch is correspondingly increased while the number of the self-generating devices is increased, so that the self-generating wireless switch is not beneficial to large-scale production and popularization and application.
In the chinese utility model with publication number CN206516503U, a driving module and a handheld transmitting device are disclosed, refer to fig. 1 of the accompanying drawings of the specification, wherein the handheld transmitting device includes a driving module 3P and a power generating module 4P, the driving module 3P includes a first driving portion 8P, a second driving portion 9P and a pair of torsion springs 10P, the first driving portion 8P is sleeved on the second driving portion 9P and arranged in an X-shape with the second driving portion 9P, the power generating module 4P includes a resilient plate 7P, when the driving module 3P is pressed, the pair of torsion springs 10P is compressed to make an X-shaped included angle between the first driving portion 8P and the second driving portion 9P become smaller, so as to drive the resilient plate 7P of the power generating module 4P to move downward to make a magnetic flux of a coil inside the power generating module 4P change, thereby generating electrical energy. It can be seen that the first driving portion 8P and the second driving portion 9P are in an X-shaped structure, and the installation process thereof is relatively complicated and needs a large volume for driving movement. As can also be seen from fig. 1, the drive module 3P is arranged adjacent to the power generation module 4P, which limits the length of the hand-held transmitting device to be at least greater than the sum of the lengths of the drive module 3P and the power generation module 4P, i.e. the arrangement of the positions of the drive module 3P and the power generation module 4P allows the overall volume of the hand-held device to be enlarged.
It is worth mentioning that the handheld transmitting device is provided with a plurality of micro switches 42P in a circuit module for being triggered to enable a circuit board to send out a corresponding control signal, the height of the whole circuit module is increased by the micro switches 42P, accordingly, the height of the handheld transmitting device is at least larger than that of the whole circuit module, which undoubtedly enables the whole volume of the handheld transmitting device to be enlarged, and the micro switches 42P are easily damaged or have poor contact, which easily causes the phenomenon of switch failure. In addition, it is worth mentioning that the hand-held transmitting device needs to support the key by arranging the spring 52P, and the complex installation process thereof also leads to the increase of the manufacturing cost. Because the spring 52P has resilience, the user can press the key only by applying a large force, and the spring 52P may cause uneven pressing force, so that the key may be locked, which is not favorable for the user's operation experience.
In summary, the conventional self-generating wireless switch is difficult to realize that the volume is minimized while the same self-generating core is used for a plurality of keys to operate independently.
