In the public field, aiming at touch control electronic product equipment such as a self-service ordering machine, a cash register, medical treatment and the like, in order to prevent the touch control display from being polluted in a large area due to direct touch of the public using hands, the disclosure provides a structure of a sterilizing pen container and a touch control display module, so that the sanitation problem caused by cross use can be solved.

Please refer to fig. 1. Fig. 1 is a block diagram of a touch display module 200 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, illustrating the structure of the touch display module 200.

As shown in fig. 1, in the present embodiment, the touch display module 200 includes a touch display device 210, a stylus module 220, and a locking structure 250.

The touch display device 210 may include various touch displays 213 used in the public domain, such as a self-service ordering machine, a cash register, a medical instrument, a cash dispenser, etc. for example. In the present embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, the touch display devices 210 include a touch display 213 and a power supply 216 for operating the whole touch display device 210. Thus, the user can perform operations through the touch display 213.

Further, in the present disclosure, the touch display module 200 further includes an external touch pen module 220. As shown in fig. 1, in the present embodiment, the stylus module 220 is fixed with the touch display device 210 through a locking structure 250 for a user to use.

The stylus module 220 includes a stylus 230 for a user to access and a sterile pen holder 100 for receiving and instantly sterilizing the stylus 230.

In this embodiment, the sterilized pen container 100 includes a pen container body 110, an ultraviolet light source 120, an elastic structure 130, and a switch 126 of the ultraviolet light source 120.

In short, the pen container body 110 is used for accommodating the stylus 230. The ultraviolet light source 120 is disposed in the barrel body 110 as a sterilization light source for sterilization to provide ultraviolet light (UV light) for sterilization. The user may access the stylus 230 from the sterilized pen container 100 of the stylus module 220 to operate the touch display 213 of the touch display device 210. After use, after the stylus 230 is placed back into the pen container body 110 of the sterilized pen container 100, the ultraviolet light source 120 inside the pen container body 110 is turned on to irradiate the stylus 230, thereby completing sterilization of the stylus 230.

Thus, when the user operates the touch display 213 of the touch display device 210 through the stylus 230, the contamination of the touch display 213 can be reduced, and the contamination is concentrated on the body of the stylus 230. After the stylus 230 is used, it is placed back into the pen container body 110 of the sterilized pen container 100 and automatically and instantly sterilized by the ultraviolet light source 120.

To achieve the automatic turning on and off of the uv light source 120, thereby further saving the power and the life of the uv light source 120, the sterile pen container 100 of the present disclosure further includes a switch 126 and a resilient structure 130 of the uv light source 120. Thus, when the stylus 230 is disposed in the pen container body 110 or the stylus 230 is taken out from the pen container body 110, the touch can be reflected by the elastic structure 130. The switch 126 of the ultraviolet light source 120 is also connected to the resilient structure 130, which allows the resilient structure 130 to touch the switch 126 once the stylus 230 is removed from the barrel body 110, causing the ultraviolet light source 120 to be turned off.

More specifically, the elastic structure 130 may be disposed at the bottom 116 of the pen container body 110 (as shown in subsequent fig. 3 to 5), so that the tip 233 of the stylus 230 (as shown in subsequent fig. 4 and 5) abuts against the elastic structure 130. The elastic structure 130 is used to enable the stylus 230 to move between a first position and a second position, the stylus 230 is completely immersed in the pen container body 110 (as shown in the following fig. 4) when the stylus 230 is at the first position, and the stylus 230 protrudes out of the pen container body 110 (as shown in the following fig. 5) when the stylus 230 is at the second position, so as to be used by a user. Thus, the ultraviolet light source 120 as the sterilization light source can be turned on by the switch 126 when the stylus 230 abuts against the elastic structure 130 and is located at the first position, so that the ultraviolet light source 120 irradiates the stylus 230 for sterilization. See the discussion below for details.

As shown in fig. 1, in the present embodiment, the sterilized pen container 100 is substantially powered by the power source 216 of the touch display device 210, so that the ultraviolet light source 120 as the sterilizing light source emits ultraviolet light to irradiate the touch pen 230.

Please refer to fig. 2. Fig. 2 is a block diagram of a touch display module 200' according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. The touch display module 200 'of fig. 2 is different from the touch display module 200 of fig. 1 in that the sterilized pen container 100' of the touch display module 200 further includes a power supply 123. As such, the sterilized pen container 100' may not rely on the touch display device 210 to supply power. The power supply 123 is, for example, an additional battery module.

Please refer to fig. 3. Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram illustrating a touch display module 200 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

Fig. 3 shows a touch display 213 of the touch display device 210, and a stylus module 220 including the sterilized pen container 100 and a stylus 230. In this embodiment, the stylus 230 is accommodated and submerged in the barrel body 110 of the sterilized barrel 100.

It should be noted that the dimensions depicted in fig. 3 are merely illustrative. In some embodiments, the size of the touch display 213 is, for example, between 7 inches and 86 inches. In some embodiments, the size of the touch display 213 is, for example, between 15 inches and 60 inches.

The sterilized pen container 100 of the stylus module 220 can be fixed on one side of the touch display 213 by the locking structure 250, and the stylus 230 is accommodated in the pen container body 110 of the touch display 213 for the user to take immediately.

In fig. 3, the arrangement of the ultraviolet light source 120 as the sterilizing light source in the sterilized pen container 100 is also schematically depicted. In this embodiment, the uv light source 120 is two uv led light bars. Each of the uv led light bars is composed of a plurality of uv leds 121, and the uv led light bars extend from the top 113 of the barrel body 110 to the bottom 116 of the barrel body 110. The two ultraviolet light emitting diode light bars serving as sterilization light sources are disposed on two opposite sides of the inner wall of the pen container body 110, so that the two ultraviolet light emitting diode light bars can completely irradiate the pen body of the touch pen 230, and the entire touch pen 230 can be completely sterilized and disinfected. The length of the led strip is substantially equal to the length of the body (the portion of the stylus 230 other than the tip 233) of the stylus 230 for the user to hold.

It should be noted that fig. 3 schematically illustrates an embodiment of the arrangement of the uv light source 120 as the sterilization light source, and the disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, only one or more uv led light bars may be disposed in the pen container body 110. In some embodiments, the uv light source 120 may not be a uv light emitting diode light bar, but only one or more uv light emitting diodes disposed inside the pen container body 110, and the uv light emitting diodes are ensured to completely irradiate the pen body of the stylus 230, which is also included in the present disclosure.

Fig. 3 also schematically illustrates an embodiment of the elastic structure 130. For simplicity, the switch 126 of the UV light source 120 is shown.

As shown in fig. 3, the elastic structure 130 is disposed on the bottom 116 of the pen container body 110 and includes an abutting portion 133 and a spring 139. The abutting portion 133 is on an abutting side of the elastic structure 130 close to the tip 233 of the stylus 230, and as shown in fig. 3, the tip 233 of the stylus 230 abuts against the abutting portion 133. The spring 139 is used for moving the abutting portion 133 toward the top 113 of the pen container body 110. Thus, whether the stylus 230 is located in the pen container body 110 or the stylus 230 is taken out by the user can be reflected by the abutting portion 133 and the spring 139 of the elastic structure 130, so that the stylus 230 can be automatically and instantly sterilized by the switch 126 of the ultraviolet light source 120 connected to the elastic structure 130.

Please refer to fig. 4 and fig. 5. Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a stylus 230 of a stylus module 220' in a first position according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Fig. 5 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a stylus 230 of a stylus module 220' in a second position according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. For purposes of simplicity of explanation, the same or similar reference numbers will be used herein for the same elements.

Fig. 4 shows the stylus 230 in a first position, submerged within the barrel body 110 of the sterilized barrel 100 of the stylus module 220'. The pen container body 110 comprises a top portion 113 and a bottom portion 116, wherein the bottom portion 116 has a cavity for accommodating the elastic structure 130. The elastic structure 130 includes an abutting portion 133 and a housing 140 provided with a spring. The elastic structure 130 can be connected to the switch 126 (as shown in fig. 1 and 2) via the spring 139, so as to reflect whether the stylus 230 is located in the barrel body 110.

The ultraviolet light source 120 (as shown in fig. 3) as a sterilization light source is still disposed in the pen container body 110, such as two ultraviolet light emitting diode light bars, which are not shown in the cross section shown in fig. 4. When the stylus 230 is located at the first position, the tip 233 of the stylus 230 abuts against the abutting portion 133 of the elastic structure 130, so that the ultraviolet light source 120 is turned on to sterilize and disinfect the stylus 230.

As shown in fig. 4, in this embodiment, a cap 239 is provided on the top of the stylus 230 opposite the tip 233. Thus, when the stylus 230 is in the first position and completely submerged in the barrel body 110, the cap 239 of the stylus 230 seals the barrel body 110, thereby preventing the leakage of the sterilizing ultraviolet light emitted from the ultraviolet light source 120 to the stylus 230.

Fig. 5 shows the stylus 230 in the second position, as shown protruding outward from the barrel body 110 in the direction D.

In this embodiment, the spring 139 in the housing 140 is designed to push and then eject the stylus 230 in the direction D toward the top 113 through the abutting portion 133. At this time, the tip 233 of the stylus 230 may be disengaged from the abutting portion 133 of the elastic structure 130, and the ultraviolet light source 120 as a sterilization light source is turned off.

Fig. 4 and 5 are summarized. In fig. 4, the stylus 230 is located at the first position of the sterilized pen container 100 and is submerged in the pen container body 110, the ultraviolet light source 120 is automatically turned on due to the elastic structure 130 being abutted, and ultraviolet light is irradiated on the body of the stylus 230 for sterilization. After the user presses the stylus 230 shown in fig. 4, the user enters fig. 5, the stylus 230 is located at the second position of the sterilized pen container 100, and is ejected out of the pen container body 110 by the force of the elastic structure 130, and the ultraviolet light source 120 is turned off.

In some embodiments, the switch 126 of the uv light source 120 may be set to automatically turn off the uv light source 120 after a period of time of irradiating the uv light for sterilization and disinfection to save energy.

In fig. 4 and 5, the pen barrel body 110 further includes fixing holes 119, and the fixing holes 119 are screw holes, for example, and can be used as a part of a locking structure, so that the pen barrel body 110 can be fixed to the touch display device 210, but the disclosure is not limited thereto.

In summary, the present disclosure provides a sterilizing pen container and a touch display module integrated with the same. The touch display module provides a touch pen for a user to operate through the touch pen. Therefore, the sterilization touch control pen only needs to be sterilized through the sterilization pen container, the requirement for sterilizing the touch control display is reduced, and manual operation is omitted for spraying and wiping the touch control display in a large area for sterilization. The sterilizing pen container is small and has energy-saving and low-cost benefits. And in public use occasions, the sterilizing pen container can automatically start the ultraviolet light source sterilizing function, so that the touch pen can be reused in a short time.

While the present disclosure has been described with reference to the above embodiments, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure, and therefore, the scope of the present disclosure should be limited only by the terms of the appended claims.
