Description

  The present invention relates to a kind of touch pen storage structure, and more particularly to a touch pen storage structure applied to a portable electronic device.

  Webpad devices belong to new technology products and are generally often compared to laptop computers, tablet PCs or PDAs. Generally, a laptop computer and a tablet PC have a high level of data processing capability, and the portability is higher than that of a well-known desktop computer. Among them, the tablet PC has a touch-control screen for handwriting input. The above two products are suitable for general public use. The PDA places emphasis on relatively low-level character processing capability, and is used for electronic character work such as communication records and notepads. The subject of appeal is also the general public.

  The so-called web pad device of the present invention is located between a laptop computer and a PDA, which is lighter than a laptop computer and includes the touch input function of a tablet PC, and of particular importance is the ability of wireless online. By providing, for example, an 802.11b wireless network card can be installed and complex and heavy data calculation work can be sent to a remote host for processing, and the web pad device has enhanced wireless online capability for speedy and accurate You can access data wirelessly. For this reason, the main appeal target is a specific use of a specific business such as a hospital, a large-scale store, a logistics business, a school electronic book, etc., and is different from the above-described laptop computer, tablet PC, or PDA.

  In general, the structure of the web pad device can be called a laptop computer without a top cover, or a flat type computer in which a liquid crystal display panel and a computer are aligned. Touch input is the main input method. Although touch input can be achieved by the user's fingers, a touch pen is usually provided for input in order to further improve accuracy.

  The touch pen storage method is not important for the portable electronic device, but it is important for the user to consider the use efficiency, and the touch pen that is convenient for use and storage is directly related to the use efficiency. Touch pens used in portable electronic devices such as PDAs, web pad devices, and mobile phones currently on the market are stored in a simple structure, and are efficient for the user when removing and storing the touch pen. It is something that cannot be realized.

  SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The main object of the present invention is to provide a touch pen storage structure of a portable electronic device that allows easy storage and removal of the touch pen, and to provide a storage and removal system that can be realized when the user can perform speedy storage and removal. is there.

  The present invention provides a touch pen storage structure for a portable electronic device that allows easy storage and removal of the touch pen.

  The touch pen storage structure of the present invention includes a touch pen and a storage groove, and the touch pen includes a pen shaft having a positioning protrusion protruding from the end, and the storage groove is formed at one end of the case of the portable electronic device. An opening formed in the case, and an inclined surface is formed on the outer periphery of the opening, and a positioning slit is provided in the axial direction at the lowest point of the inclined surface. The positioning slit is slightly wider than the positioning protrusion of the touch pen, the pen shaft of the touch pen is inserted into the receiving groove from the opening, and the positioning protrusion is guided along the inclined surface of the opening and easily introduced into the positioning slit. Thus, the storage positioning function is achieved.

  FIG. 1 is an implementation state display diagram of an embodiment of the present invention. As shown, the present invention includes a case 2 and a touch pen 1 of a web pad device. The touch pen 1 includes a pen shaft 10 and a positioning convex block 11 is provided at the end thereof. A storage groove 3 is provided at the side end 20 of the back plate 21 of the case 2 of the web pad device. The storage groove 3 is formed at the side end 20 to form an opening 35 and is extended toward the inside of the case 2. The housing groove 211 is provided. An inclined surface 350 is formed on the outer periphery of the opening 35, and the positioning slit 31 is recessed in the axial direction at the lowest point of the inclined surface 350.

  In the present embodiment, the positioning slit 31 is provided slightly wider than the positioning convex block 11 of the touch pen 1, the pen shaft 10 of the touch pen 1 is inserted into the receiving groove 211 from the opening 35, and the positioning convex block 11. Is easily introduced into the positioning projection 11 by the guidance of the inclined surface 350 of the opening 35, and is stored and positioned.

  Please refer to the partially enlarged view of the present invention in FIG. As shown in the figure, an escape prevention concave groove 13 is provided at the front end of the touch pen 1, and an escape prevention convex mass 33 is installed at a position corresponding to the escape prevention concave groove 13 inside the accommodation groove 211. The touch pen 1 is prevented from falling off due to the engagement between the escape preventing concave groove 13 and the escape preventing convex mass 33 during storage.

  Finally, please refer to the partially enlarged sectional view of the present invention in FIG. As shown in the figure, when the touch pen 1 is stored in the storage structure, the positioning projection 11 and the inclined surface 350 are guided to engage each other regardless of the radial direction of the positioning protrusion 11 of the touch pen 1.
