30 30: CAMPO DE APLICACION DE LA INVENCION FIELD OF APPLICATION OF THE INVENTION

35 35: El campo de aplicaci6n de la presente invenci6n se enmarca dentro del sector de la industria dedicada a la fabricaci6n de dispositivos electr6nicos, centrandose particularmente en el ambito de los accesorios para dichos dispositivos, y mas concretamente, en los elementos de The field of application of the present invention is part of the industry sector dedicated to the manufacture of electronic devices, focusing particularly on the scope of accessories for said devices, and more specifically, on the elements of

sujeci6n o soporte para lapices de pantalla tactil. support or support for touch screen pencils.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Como referencia al estado actual de la tecnica, cabe sefalar que, si bien existen diferentes soluciones para mantener unidos el lapiz touch al dispositivo de pantalla tactil en que se usa, por parte del solicitante se desconoce la existencia de ninguna que presente unas caracterfsticas tecnicas estructurales y constitutivas semejantes a las que presenta el adaptador con lapiz de pantalla tactil para su enganche al dispositivo que aquf se preconiza. As a reference to the current state of the art, it should be noted that, although there are different solutions to keep the touch pen attached to the touch screen device in which it is used, the existence of none that presents structural technical characteristics is unknown. and constitutive ones similar to those presented by the adapter with a touch screen pen for its attachment to the device recommended here.

En tal sentido, conviene destacar el hecho de que la mayorfa de sistemas de fijaci6n del lapiz para pantalla tactil al dispositivo son huecos o anclajes previstos especialmente en la carcasa del dispositivo para tal fin y a los que se fija el lapiz cuando no se usa para que al extraerlo no quedan unidos al mismo. Ello hace que sea relativamente facil perder dicho lapiz, ya que, cuando se extrae, no queda sujeto al dispositivo y si no se tiene el cuidado de volver a fijarlo una vez usado, se puede perder. Ademas, si la sujeci6n no es muy segura, tambien es facil que se suelte y se pierda. In this regard, it is worth noting the fact that most systems for fixing the pen for the touch screen to the device are holes or anchors specially provided for in the device housing for this purpose and to which the pencil is fixed when not used so that when removed they are not attached to it. This makes it relatively easy to lose said pencil, since, when it is removed, it is not attached to the device and if one is not careful to fix it once it is used, it can be lost. In addition, if the grip is not very secure, it is also easy for it to be released and lost.

Se conoce tambien una sujeci6n del lapiz mediante cable o cord6n, sin embargo, el uso del lapiz queda limitado por la longitud de dicho cable o cord6n y, ademas, normalmente el enganche de dicho cable A fastening of the pencil by cable or cord is also known, however, the use of the pencil is limited by the length of said cable or cord and, in addition, usually the hitching of said cable

o cord6n al dispositivo suele consistir en un anclaje especffico, que no todos los dispositivos poseen, por lo que no resulta apto para poder ser estandarizado y permitir un uso universal del mismo. or cord to the device usually consists of a specific anchor, which not all devices have, so it is not suitable to be able to be standardized and allow universal use of it.

El objetivo de la presente invenci6n es, pues, desarrollar un nuevo tipo de elemento de sujeci6n para el lapiz de pantalla tactil que evite los inconvenientes sefalados y proporcione ventajas adicionales, permitiendo su acople de forma segura y practica a cualquier dispositivo electr6nico con el que se vaya a utilizar. The objective of the present invention is, therefore, to develop a new type of fastener for the touch screen pencil that avoids the inconveniences noted and provides additional advantages, allowing its safe and practical coupling to any electronic device with which I will use.

EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

Asf, el elemento de sujeci6n para lapiz de pantalla tactil con adaptador al orificio de auriculares como enganche al dispositivo que la presente invenci6n propone, se configura como una destacable novedad dentro de su campo de aplicaci6n, ya que a tenor de su implementaci6n y de forma taxativa, se alcanzan satisfactoriamente los objetivos anteriormente sefalados, estando los detalles caracterizadores que lo distinguen convenientemente recogidos en las reivindicaciones finales que acompafan a la presente descripci6n del mismo. Thus, the fastening element for touch screen pencil with adapter to the headphone hole as a hook to the device that the present invention proposes, is configured as a remarkable novelty within its field of application, since according to its implementation and shape However, the previously stated objectives are satisfactorily achieved, the distinguishing details being conveniently set forth in the final claims that accompany the present description thereof.

De forma concreta, lo que la invenci6n propone es un elemento de sujeci6n para lapiz tactil o "touch" que, siendo del tipo que cuenta, basicamente, con un elemento de enganche para fijarlo al dispositivo, un elemento de prolongaci6n que permite sus uso sin desengancharlo del dispositivo y un elemento de manejo para coger el lapiz propiamente dicho, presenta la particularidad de comprender un adaptador de tipo "'acK" apto para permitir su enganche en el orificio donde se acopla el conector "'acK" para auriculares, siendo dicho orificio comun y estandarizado en todos los dispositivos electr6nicos que incorporan pantalla tactil. Specifically, what the invention proposes is a fastening element for a touch pen or "touch" which, being of the type that basically has an engagement element for fixing it to the device, an extension element that allows its use without unhooking it from the device and a handling element to take the pencil itself, it has the particularity of comprising an adapter of type "'acK" suitable to allow its hooking in the hole where the connector' 'acK' for headphones is attached, said being common and standardized hole in all electronic devices that incorporate a touch screen.

Para ello, dicho adaptador jack esta formado por una espiga "ranurada" de dimensiones acordes para alojarse ajustadamente en el citado orificio de auriculares, estando tal espiga unida mediante una anilla a un cord6n extensible, por ejemplo mediante la existencia de un tramo de material elastico o de un tramo de cable enrollado en forma de muelle o cualquier otra, para proporcionar la longitud necesaria para su manejo sin desengancharlo del dispositivo. For this purpose, said jack adapter is formed by a "grooved" pin of suitable dimensions to fit tightly in said headphone hole, said pin being connected by means of a ring to an extensible cord, for example by the existence of a stretch of elastic material or a section of cable wound in the form of a spring or any other, to provide the necessary length for handling without disconnecting it from the device.

Dicho cord6n extensible, a su vez, esta unido a una pieza de agarre que permite su c6modo manejo y que puede presentar cualquier forma y tamafo, pues no tiene que ser necesariamente un cuerpo alargado como un lapiz tradicional sino simplemente cumplir la prerrogativa de incorporar un vastago de punta redondeada, que constituye el lapiz propiamente dicho, ya que dicha punta redondeada es el elemento que sirve para tocar la pantalla tactil. Es importante sefalar que, opcionalmente, este vastago puede ser extrafble de la pieza de agarre, por ejemplo para permitir el intercambio del mismo, o estar fijo de forma solidaria. Said extensible cord, in turn, is attached to a gripping piece that allows its comfortable handling and that can have any shape and size, since it does not necessarily have to be an elongated body like a traditional pencil but simply to fulfill the prerogative of incorporating a rounded tip rod, which constitutes the pencil itself, since said rounded tip is the element used to touch the touch screen. It is important to point out that, optionally, this rod can be removable from the gripping piece, for example to allow the exchange thereof, or be fixed in solidarity.

Adicionalmente, la citada pieza de agarre cuenta con un cuerpo central en cuyo interior incorpora una baterfa que hace que, al presionarlo por una de sus caras, configurada a tal efecto a modo de pulsador, se encienda un diodo LED previsto en el, permitiendo utilizarlo como linterna. Ademas, la superficie superior en forma de pulsador de este cuerpo que se puede iluminar es susceptible de incorporar elementos graficos impresos, sirviendo asf, por ejemplo, como medio de soporte promocional para una marca. Additionally, the aforementioned grip piece has a central body inside which incorporates a battery that, when pressed on one of its faces, configured for this purpose as a push-button, turns on a LED diode provided on it, allowing it to be used Like flashlight In addition, the push-button upper surface of this body that can be illuminated is capable of incorporating printed graphic elements, thus serving, for example, as a promotional support medium for a brand.

Asimismo, se contempla la posibilidad de que, en la parte posterior a la del pulsador, dicho cuerpo central de la pieza de agarre del lapiz pueda llevar incorporada una pequefa gamuza para limpiar la pantalla tactil del m6vil, i-pad, etc., la cual igualmente podra estar unida a dicha pieza de forma fija, por ejemplo pegada por un extremo, o extrafble. Likewise, the possibility is contemplated that, at the back of the button, said central body of the pencil gripping piece can have a small chamois incorporated to clean the mobile touch screen, i-pad, etc., the which also may be fixedly attached to said piece, for example glued at one end, or removable.

Por ultimo cabe mencionar que el descrito disefo estructural del elemento de sujeci6n de la invenci6n permite la posibilidad de que en la anilla de la espiga en forma de adaptador jack se pueda incorporar un verdadero conector jack para auriculares, de tal manera que pueden ir los auriculares o cascos y el lapiz touch juntos y el usuario podra conectar al dispositivo uno u otro en funci6n de las necesidades de cada momento. Finally, it is worth mentioning that the described structural design of the fastening element of the invention allows the possibility that a true jack headphone jack can be incorporated into the ear ring in the form of a jack adapter, so that the headphones can go or helmets and the touch pen together and the user can connect to the device one or the other depending on the needs of each moment.

El descrito elemento de sujeci6n para lapiz de pantalla tactil con adaptador al orificio de auriculares como enganche al dispositivo representa, pues, una estructura innovadora de caracterfsticas estructurales y constitutivas desconocidas hasta ahora para el fin a que se destina, razones que unidas a su utilidad practica, la dotan de fundamento suficiente para obtener el privilegio de exclusividad que se solicita. The described fastener element for touch screen pencil with adapter to the headphone hole as hook to the device thus represents an innovative structure of structural and constitutive characteristics unknown until now for the purpose to which it is intended, reasons that together with its practical utility , provide it with sufficient grounds to obtain the privilege of exclusivity that is requested.
