Embodiment
Describe embodiment of the present utility model below in detail, the example of described embodiment is shown in the drawings, and wherein identical from start to finish or similar label is represented identical or similar elements or the element with identical or similar functions.Below by the embodiment that is described with reference to the drawings is exemplary, only is used to explain the utility model, and can not be interpreted as restriction of the present utility model.
The utility model discloses a kind of multi-finger touch positioning device, contact vibration wave and the vibration wave sensor that is produced with object by making full use of finger, in mode cheaply, the accurate location of having realized multi-finger touch.
Multi-finger touch positioning device of the present utility model comprises solid-state panel, serial vibration wave sensor and location identification processing unit.Solid-state panel can be the material of any non-liquid state, on-gaseous, for example comprises plank, force fit plate, sheet metal, injection molding plates, tempered glass, acrylic plate, LCDs, electronic-paper display screen, organic EL display panel (OLED) etc.The front of solid-state panel is used for contacting with finger, receives touch action such as finger click, friction, thereby correspondingly produce and propagate vibration wave after finger is in contact with it.
The serial vibration wave sensor of predetermined quantity is array distribution respectively and is close on the solid-state panel, contacts the vibration wave that is produced with solid-state panel and is converted into electric signal in order to pointing.Series vibration wave sensor becomes to be equally spaced on X and Y direction, generally the about 2mm of spacing or shorter.Each finger can be realized location, i.e. 3 point locations by near the strongest vibration wave sensor of 3 inductions this finger contact position when the surface of contact of the solid-state panel of contact.Wherein consider size of finger own and shortcut calculation, the actual computation formula can be modified to " energy is linear with distance ", and it is nearest from the finger contact point promptly to respond to the strongest sensor, and it is remote from the finger contact point to respond to sensor on the weak side.
Here, the vibration wave sensor can be sonic sensor, piezoelectric sensor.
The vibration wave sensor can paste and be placed on solid-state panel front, the edge position of keeping to the side, and wherein finger is the front of solid-state panel with the surface of contact of solid-state panel.
Perhaps, in order not affect the appearance, perhaps do not influence the display brightness that for example LCDs, electronic-paper display screen or organic EL display panel etc. have the solid-state panel of display screen, the vibration wave sensor can paste the back side that is placed on solid-state panel, promptly relative with surface of contact face.Place the back side of solid-state panel also can effectively weaken simultaneously the interference that the external world (except that its front) vibrates in a jumble of vibration wave sensor.
Perhaps, but for the solid-state panel that comprises the stack of multilayers such as LCDs, tempered glass, current-carrying plate or reflector, the vibration wave sensor can be embedded in the inside of solid-state panel.Like this, the vibration wave sensor can seal, and the interference of the inner mixed and disorderly vibration of system platform of this finger touch positioner is used in reduction equally effectively.
Vibration wave sensor response frequency requires: below the general recommendations 500hz.
About the requirement of vibration wave sensor orientation, preferably adopt omni-directional vibration wave sensor, i.e. the induction of the vibration wave of sensor can not be subjected to the influence of direction of vibration propagation.Under the more situation of number of sensors, orientation also can be considered.
The vibration wave size sensor that is adopted, preferred thickness are controlled at below the 1mm, and length and width or diameter are controlled at below the 5mm.
Identification processing unit in location is used to receive and handle the electric signal that a plurality of vibration wave sensors send, and in conjunction with the physical location information of vibration wave sensor, calculates and obtain the contact position of finger on solid-state panel.Because between vibration wave energy that the solid-state panel of finger touches is produced and the transmission range is a kind of exponential relationship, be a kind of linear relationship substantially between propagation delay time and the transmission range, therefore identification processing unit in location obtains the position of a plurality of fingers on panel according to from the electrical signal energy of serial vibration wave sensor and the master datas such as physical location of vibration wave sensor.
The position of location identification processing unit is random, and it is inner or outside to be arranged on solid face, as long as be connected with the vibration wave sensor electrical.
Location identification processing unit can be PC system platform or system-on-a-chip, and the location recognition principle about location identification processing unit hereinafter will provide detailed description after a while.
With reference now to Fig. 1,, this figure is the synoptic diagram according to the multi-finger touch positioning device of an embodiment of the utility model.
Fig. 1 is the multi-finger touch positioning device structural representation according to an embodiment of the utility model.As shown in the figure, serial vibration wave sensor 20 is the back side that array distribution is close to solid-state panel 10, and each vibration wave sensor all can be electrically connected to location identification processing unit 30 by lead.
In the illustrated embodiment, solid-state panel 10 is a rectangle, and vibration wave sensor 20 is circular, but the utility model is not limited to this shape, and in actual applications, solid-state panel and vibration wave sensor can be set to arbitrary shape according to the actual requirements.
As indicated above, the position of serial vibration wave sensor 20 and quantity can be adjusted according to actual needs, become to be equally spaced in X and Y direction.
Fig. 2 is the multi-finger touch positioning device structural representation according to another embodiment of the utility model, and in this embodiment, solid-state panel 10 is the Electronic Paper screen.
As shown in the figure, Electronic Paper screen 10 is connected on the system platform 50, and system platform 50 is used for controlling Electronic Paper screen 10 and shows.Series vibration wave sensor 20 is close to the back side of Electronic Paper screen 10 by equidistant array way, and all vibration wave sensors 20 all are wired on the location identification processing unit 30 simultaneously.
Click Electronic Paper screen 10 or a plurality of finger on Electronic Paper screen 10 during frictional movement at a plurality of fingers, series vibration wave sensor can both be received the signal of varying strength, and be transferred to location identification processing unit 30, come location Calculation to refer to the position in conjunction with the array distribution of serial vibration wave sensor 20 more more.
About the principle of work of location identification processing unit 30, can be with reference to the circuit diagram of the location identification processing unit of the multi-finger touch of the utility model embodiment shown in Figure 3.
