For the purpose of the present invention, in view of the present invention, a two-axis microcomputer-inductive detector is provided, comprising: a first-axis mosquito electrode; a second-axis 疋 electrode 'second _ An electrode; a movable electrode frame comprising a first axis 201118032 movable electrode, a second_moving electrode, a third axis movable electrode, and a connecting element connecting the above three-axis movable electrodes, wherein the first-axis movable electrode is at - The on-axis and the first-axis fixed electrode constitute a first capacitor, the second-axis movable electrode forms a second capacitor on the second axis and the second-axis fixed electrode, and the third-axis movable electrode is on the third axis and the third-fixed electrode Forming a third capacitor, and the connecting element includes a central mass body. The center mass body is coupled to the first axis, the second axis, or the first axis movable electrode, and the center mass body has an outer ring and an outer ring connecting the outer ring a first connecting portion; a spring connected to the movable electrode frame; and a fixed column connected to the < spring, wherein the second and third axes do not mutually interact with each other to define a three-dimensional coordinate system. In the above three-axis microcomputer inductance detector, the movable electrode frame may be a pair of asymmetric structures. In the above three-axis microcomputer-inductance detector, the connecting element may include a central mass, and the first-axis movable electrode and the second-axis movable electrode may be located therein: four sides extending direction or four-corner extending direction of the shell And the central axis mass body, the third axis movable electrode may also be located at the four corner extension of the t core mass body=four-side extension direction′′ connected to the central mass body or through an extension connector. The core mass body can have - or multiple openings. In the peripheral (10) electromechanical device, the connecting element may comprise at least one connection. The first-axis movable electrode or the second-axis movable electrode may have one or more openings for connecting the peripheral mass. In the two-axis microcomputer inductance measurement 11, the first-axis_electrode, or the first proximity, or both, may each have a fixed post, and the fixed post is disposed in a direction close to the center of mass of the movable electrode frame. Inductively, in one aspect, a microcomputer is provided, wherein the microcomputer inductive detector includes a fixed electrode and a movable 201118032 electrode, and the movable electrode is movable relative to the fixed electrode, the mass body and The movable electrode is connected and includes: an outer ring, and a first connecting segment adjacent to an outer side of the outer ring. The mass body may further include: a second connecting segment connecting the first connecting segment. The microcomputer inductance detector can be a single-axis, dual-axis or three-axis microcomputer inductance detector. The purpose, technical contents, features and effects achieved by the present invention will be more readily understood by the detailed description of the embodiments. [Embodiment] The Lai type in the present invention is intended to be illustrative, and is mainly intended to indicate the relative attack between the structural portions, and the shapes, thicknesses, and widths are not drawn to scale. First, one of the embodiments of the present invention will be described. Referring to the view of FIG. 1A, the two-axis microcomputer inductance detector of the present invention comprises a movable electrode frame ι, a 固定-axis fixed electrode 2, a y-axis fixed electrode 22, a z-axis ridge electrode 23, a spring 30, and a fixed column ( Anchor) 40. The z-axis fixed electrode 23 and the movable electrode frame are horizontally shown, and are indicated by broken lines. The fixed post 40 and each fixed electrode / securing / on the substrate (not shown), and the movable electrode frame H) is a suspension, connected to the fixed post 4 via the spring 30 0: see the top view of Figure 1B, Analyze the pole p as the package (4) the 极 pole, the bribe pure pole 12 =. The structure of the movable electrode 11 on the X axis and the χ axis solid ^ 4 X axis 12 on the y axis and y. axis fixed electrode 22 parallel, ζ axis Can be: electricity: J: electrode electrode! Parallel; so, respectively, 'χ, % z axis - money order. Although the sense of moving, the movable electrode frame 与, and the custom electrode 201118032 can be based on this 21-23 A relative movement occurs between one or more of them, and the capacitance changes to detect the movement of the sensor. The first figure is a cross-sectional view taken from line A of Figure 1B. The X-axis is movable above the second figure. The original distance d between the electrode 11 and the <axis axis electrode 21, but when the sensor moves to cause the x-axis movable electrode to move to the right in the main image, as shown in the lower part of FIG. 2A, the distance to the left becomes &, the right distance d2 distance change will cause the capacitance value to change accordingly, so that the X-axis two movement can be detected. The y-axis direction detection is similar. For the detection of the axial direction, see Fig. 2B, which is a cross-sectional view taken along line B of Fig. 1B. The figure shows that the original distance between the 2-axis movable electrode 13 and the 2-axis fixed electrode is d; similarly 'When the sense of turbulence causes the z-axis movable electrode 13 to move up and down, the distance will change and the capacitance value will change accordingly, so that the X-axis movement can be detected. x, y-axis fixed electrode 21, 22 profile It can be any structure, and it only needs to be fixed on the substrate. For example, when its top view is as shown in Fig. 3A, its cross section can be 3A_3G or any other structure. The z-axis fixed electrode 23 is also the same. When the structure of 21-23 is a structure similar to that of FIG. 3D (only one side has a fixed column), then the fixed column is preferably disposed in a direction close to the center of mass of the movable electrode frame 10. The above is only one of the implementations of the present invention. For example, the manner of cooperation between the three-axis movable electrode U·13 and the two-axis fixed electrode 21-23 can be variously changed. For example, although the movable electrode frame 10 is preferably a symmetrical structure, it does not have to be symmetrical; The z-axis movable electrode 13 does not have to be set The outer ring of the movable electrode frame 10. As shown in the top view of Fig. 4, the z-axis movable electrode 13 and the two Z-axis solid-state electrodes 23 are disposed only in one direction of the xy plane (the figure is not upper and lower) but of course It can be set on the left and right sides, and the z-axis movable electrode 13; is also placed on the extended periphery and center of the movable electrode frame 10 (for the upper and lower parts of the display center at the display center 201118032, only the real thing (10) Red_fixed electrode Fig. 5 and Fig. 1 are in the ten-center region of the movable electrode frame 10. In the figure, another embodiment of the present invention is shown, and in this embodiment, the movable shaft of the movable shaft is 13 and =:! The periphery of the frame 10 is placed on the movement of the sensor. Z_ fixed electrode change, pick-up - plane. The structure of the reward pole 21 and the coffee 1G are not located in the same figure (only one side has a column) H as in the direction similar to the center of the 3D electrode frame 10. The solid column is placed close to the movable view. See the top view of Fig. 6. The cross-section can be seen as the structure including the X-axis movable electrode u, the y-ray 1' 1G, and the above three-axis movable electric axis movable electrode. The connecting element comprises a central mass body = the connecting element; this embodiment extends the connector! 43. The X-axis movable electrode 1 is in the direction of the extension of the body M2 and the extension body (4), and the electrokinetic (4) is located at the left and right sides of the center. The direction of the extension of the four corners refers to the upper, lower and lower sides of the upper left f-plane of the drawing.
