Abstract
Description
一種便攜式輸入裝置，尤指一種便於攜帶及使用的便攜式輸入裝置。
A portable input device, especially a portable input device that is easy to carry and use.
隨著近年來觸控面板技術之發展，現今具有顯示功能的可攜式電子裝置，如智慧型手機、平板電腦及MP5等皆改採用觸控面板來取代傳統佔據空間的機械式按鍵。
按，平板電腦及智慧型手機及可攜式電子裝置或電視，皆趨於導向具有手寫及觸控輸入之功能，使用者往往可透過以手指或觸控筆進行觸控操作相當方便，但手機或平板電腦及可攜式電子裝置之螢幕較小，進行手寫或輸入時較不方便，故該業者則反向回到先前發展便於攜帶的機械式按鍵的迷你及/或薄化鍵盤，該迷你及/或薄化鍵盤係透過USB或藍牙無線訊號與手機或平板電腦及可攜式電子裝置進行連接使用，雖其可達到便於輸入的目的，但迷你及/或薄化鍵盤始終仍佔有一定空間，致使造成不便利攜帶之缺點。
另外，更有業者發展組合式及折疊式之鍵盤，但與迷你鍵盤相同，一樣令使用者不便於攜帶，故無法成為一輕易攜帶的必備品。
With the development of touch panel technology in recent years, portable electronic devices with display functions, such as smart phones, tablet computers, and MP5s, have adopted touch panels instead of traditional mechanical buttons that occupy space.
Buttons, smart phones and portable electronic devices or televisions tend to be oriented with handwriting and touch input. Users can easily touch by finger or stylus, but the phone is quite convenient. Or the tablet and the portable electronic device have a small screen, which is inconvenient for handwriting or inputting, so the industry reverses back to the mini and/or thin keyboard that previously developed a portable mechanical button. And/or thin keyboards are connected to mobile phones or tablets and portable electronic devices via USB or Bluetooth wireless signals. Although they can be easily input, mini and/or thin keyboards still have a certain space. , resulting in the disadvantage of being inconvenient to carry.
In addition, more manufacturers have developed modular and folding keyboards, but like the mini keyboard, the same is not convenient for users to carry, so it cannot be an essential item for easy carrying.
爰此，為解決上述習知技術之缺點，本發明之主要目的，係提供一種便於攜帶及使用的便攜式輸入裝置。
為達上述目的本發明係提供一種便攜式輸入裝置，係包含：一可撓式本體、一感應電極層、一保護層、一記憶金屬體；
所述可撓式本體具有一第一側及一第二側；所述感應電極層具有一第一感應電極及一第二感應電極，所述第一、二感應電極對應設置且不相接觸，所述感應電極層設於前述可撓式本體之第二側；該保護層對應設於前述可撓式本體之第二側並覆蓋該感應電極層，所述記憶金屬層係選擇設於前述可撓性本體及該保護層其中任一。
透過本發明之便攜式輸入裝置係可令使用者便於攜帶及操作，並改善習知攜帶不方便之缺點。
