The existing magnetic type key generates attraction or repulsion according to variable current through a coil to generate sectional inductance, because the coil is mainly embodied as inductance characteristic, the current change has a process, the larger the inductance is, the longer the charging time is, however, the size of the inductance is in direct proportion to the number of turns of the coil, and if the number of turns of the coil is smaller, the smaller the resistance of the coil is, the more power is consumed under the condition of direct current.
The repulsion that the coil produced is controlled with instantaneous current, if the coil inductance is bigger, too short instantaneous current can't guarantee that the coil produces the biggest repulsion, and the coil number of turns is too little, and direct current when producing the attraction magnetic field is too big, and the coil also generates heat great.
In order to solve the above problems, the present application provides a controllable force button 100 to solve the problems of power consumption and heat generation of the conventional magnetic force button.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating an appearance of a controllable force button 100 according to an embodiment; fig. 2 shows a schematic structural diagram of a part of the controllable force button 100 provided in this embodiment, and in a possible implementation manner, the controllable force button 100 provided in this embodiment of the present invention includes a central axis 110, a first magnetic element 120, and a coil assembly 130.
The middle shaft 110, the first magnetic element 120 and the coil assembly 130 are coaxially disposed, and the first magnetic element 120 is sleeved on the middle shaft 110 and can move along with the movement of the middle shaft 110.
The outer diameter of the first magnetic element 120 is smaller than the inner diameter of the coil assembly 130, and when the middle shaft 110 is pressed by an external force to reciprocate toward the coil assembly 130, the first magnetic element 120 reciprocates in the coil assembly 130 along the axial direction with the middle shaft 110. For example, when the central shaft 110 is not under force, the first magnetic element 120 is located outside the coil assembly 130, and when the central shaft 110 is pressed by an external force, the first magnetic element 120 enters the coil assembly 130.
The coil assembly 130 is configured to generate an attractive magnetic field or a repulsive magnetic field according to a variable current to act on the first magnetic element 120; the coil assembly 130 includes a plurality of coils, and when the central shaft 110 is pressed by an external force, one of the plurality of coils generates a repulsive magnetic field, and after a preset time period, the plurality of coils are connected in series to generate an attractive magnetic field.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic diagram illustrating the controllable force button 100 pressed by a force. In the controllable force button 100 provided by this embodiment, when the middle shaft 110 is pressed by an external force, a magnetic field is generated by one coil, so that the length (number of turns) of the coil is reduced, and the inductance of the coil is reduced. After the preset time, the plurality of coils simultaneously generate a suction magnetic field, so that the magnetic field can be ensured while the current is reduced, and in addition, the reduction of the current can also avoid the heating of an inductor.
The preset duration can be used for controlling the triggering strength of the key, and in a possible implementation manner, the preset duration is a duration of millisecond level, the greater the duration is, the greater the triggering strength is, and otherwise, the smaller the triggering strength is.
The plurality of coils of the coil assembly 130 may be stacked or nested inside and outside, and when the plurality of coils are stacked, the coil generating the repulsive magnetic field is the uppermost coil, i.e., the coil close to the first magnetic element 120; when the coils are nested inside and outside, the coil generating the repulsive magnetic field is the inner coil.
The following describes an arrangement of the coil assembly 130 with reference to the drawings. With reference to fig. 2 and fig. 3, in one possible embodiment, the coil assembly 130 includes a first coil 131 and a second coil 132, wherein the first coil 131 includes a first coil first end and a first coil second end; the second coil 132 includes a second coil first end and a second coil second end.
The first coil 131 and the second coil 132 are stacked, wherein the first coil 131 is disposed on a side close to the first magnetic element 120, the second coil 132 is disposed on a side far away from the first magnetic element 120, and a first end of the second coil 132 is adjacent to a second end of the first coil 131.
Referring to fig. 4, a first end of the first coil forms a first pin 133, and a second end of the first coil is electrically connected to a first end of the second coil to form a second pin 134; the second coil second end forms a third pin 135.
In one possible implementation manner, the middle shaft 110 is pressed by an external force to reciprocate toward the coil assembly 130, and the first stroke and the second stroke are included, where the first stroke is a stroke in which the middle shaft 110 moves toward the coil assembly 130, and the second stroke is a stroke in which the middle shaft 110 moves away from the coil assembly 130.
When the middle shaft 110 is pressed by an external force to perform a first stroke, a variable current flows in from the second pin 134 and flows out from the first pin 133, and the first coil 131 alone generates a suction magnetic field.
After a preset time, the direction of the current is changed, the variable current is controlled to flow in from the first pin 133 and flow out from the third pin 135, and the first coil 131 and the second coil 132 are connected in series to generate a repulsive magnetic field.
In a possible implementation, the first coil 131 and the second coil 132 may also be arranged inside and outside in a nested manner, wherein the first coil 131 is arranged on the inner side and the second coil 132 is arranged on the outer side.
When the middle shaft 110 is pressed by an external force, a variable current flows in from the second pin 134 and flows out from the first pin 133, and an attractive magnetic field is generated by the first coil 131 at the inner side alone. After a predetermined time interval, a repulsive magnetic field is generated by the inner first coil 131 and the outer second coil 132 connected in series and acts on the first magnetic element 120.
Since the coil is mainly characterized by inductance, the current change in the power-on process has a process, and the larger the inductance, the longer the charging time. However, the size of the inductance is proportional to the number of turns of the coil, and if the number of turns of the coil is smaller, the resistance of the coil is smaller, and the more power is consumed in the case of direct current. While the repulsion is controlled by the instantaneous current, if the coil inductance is larger, the too short instantaneous current cannot guarantee the coil to generate the maximum repulsion. The coil turns are too small, the current is too large under the driving of large suction direct current, and the coil also generates too much heat. The application provides a controllable power button 100, through controlling first coil 131 earlier and producing repulsion, increases the number of turns of coil again, produces suction by first coil 131 and second coil 132 simultaneously, can produce the section and feel. In addition, when the repulsion force is generated, the 1 coil is electrified to generate a repulsion magnetic field, so that the current rises faster and the generated magnetic force is larger at the same time; two coils are connected in series during attraction, so that the current is reduced, and the size of a magnetic field can be ensured.
In one possible implementation manner, referring to fig. 5, the middle shaft 110 includes a first section 111, a second section 112, and a first limiting member 113. The first segment 111, the first limiting member 113, and the second segment 112 are disposed along the axial direction of the central shaft 110, the first segment 111 and the second segment 112 are disposed on two sides of the first limiting member 113, the second segment 112 faces the coil assembly 130, and the first segment 111 is away from the coil assembly 130.
Referring to fig. 3 and fig. 5, the first magnetic element 120 is sleeved on the first segment 111, wherein the length of the first magnetic element 120 is smaller than the length of the first segment 111, and the end of the first segment 111 (i.e., the end of the first segment 111 away from the first position-limiting member 113) is exposed through the first magnetic element 120.
In a possible implementation, referring to fig. 6, the second section 112 of the bottom bracket 110 is provided with a return spring 114, when the bottom bracket 110 is pressed by force, the bottom bracket 110 enters a first stroke; once the external force is removed, the coil assembly 130 can be reset by the repulsive force and the reset spring 114, and the second stroke is entered.
In another implementation manner of this embodiment, the key switch further includes a second magnetic element 121, the second magnetic element 121 is disposed on the first section 111 of the bottom bracket 110, and the first magnetic element 120 and the second magnetic element 121 can generate a repulsive force.
In the embodiment, the middle shaft 110, the first magnetic element 120, the coil assembly 130, the return spring 114, and the like form a key switch of the force controllable key 100, and the force controllable key 100 further includes a housing, and the key switch is disposed in the housing.
Referring to fig. 7, fig. 7 is an assembly diagram of the controllable force button 100 provided in this embodiment, and in a possible implementation manner, the housing includes a bottom cover 140 and an upper cover 150.
Referring to fig. 7 and 8, fig. 8 is a schematic view illustrating an assembly of the bottom cover 140 and the upper cover 150, wherein the bottom cover 140 is recessed to form a mounting portion 141, and the key switch is disposed on the mounting portion 141; the upper cover 150 is engaged with the bottom cover 140 to cover the key switch in the mounting portion 141.
Referring to fig. 1, 7 and 8, the upper cover 150 is provided with a through hole 151, and when the upper cover 150 is covered on the bottom cover 140, an end of the central shaft 110 away from the coil assembly 130 (i.e., an end of the first segment 111) is exposed through the through hole 151.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 7 and fig. 8, in a possible implementation, the controllable force button 100 further includes a button 170, and the button 170 is disposed at an end of the central axis 110 away from the coil assembly 130 (i.e., an end of the first segment 111); when the upper cover 150 is covered on the bottom cover 140, the button 170 is exposed through the through hole 151.
It can be understood that a second stopper is disposed on the button 170, and the second stopper is used for limiting the button 170 inside the upper cover 150, so as to prevent the button 170 from completely separating from the upper cover 150.
Referring to fig. 7 and fig. 9 in combination, in a possible implementation manner, the controllable force button 100 further includes a control circuit board 160, a control chip 162 and a trigger module 161 are disposed on the control circuit board 160, and the trigger module 161 is electrically connected to an input end of the control chip 162; the control chip 162 further includes a plurality of IO ports, and the IO ports are electrically connected to the coil assembly 130; for outputting a variable current to the coil assembly 130, so that the coil assembly 130 generates a corresponding magnetic field according to the variable current.
The triggering module 161 is used for generating a triggering signal when the middle shaft 110 is pressed by an external force, and transmitting the triggering signal to the control chip 162. The control chip 162 is configured to output a variable current to the coil assembly 130 according to the trigger signal, so that the coil assembly 130 generates an attraction magnetic field or a repulsion magnetic field according to the variable current to act on the first magnetic element 120.
Referring to fig. 1 and fig. 9, in a possible implementation manner, taking the coil assembly 130 as an example that the coil assembly 130 includes the first coil 131 and the second coil 132, in the present embodiment, the first coil 131 and the second coil 132 include three pins, so that the control chip 162 is electrically connected to the coil assembly 130 through three device pins 136, wherein the first device pin 136 is electrically connected to the first pin 133, the second device pin 136 is electrically connected to the second pin 134, and the third device pin 136 is electrically connected to the third pin 135.
When the trigger module 161 outputs a trigger signal to the control chip 162, the IO port of the control chip 162 outputs a variable current to the coil assembly 130 through the element pin 136, so that the coil assembly 130 generates a corresponding magnetic field to act on the first magnetic element 120.

If the trigger signal is detected, the step S220 is not executed, and if the trigger signal is not detected, the detection is repeated.
