Description

觸控螢幕系統改良 Touch screen system improvement

本發明係有關於一種觸控式螢幕,尤指一種利用LED紅外線光波受阻斷反射之原理所形成之觸控式螢幕。 The invention relates to a touch screen, in particular to a touch screen formed by the principle that the LED infrared light wave is blocked and reflected.

按,習用觸控式螢幕的感應裝置主要係為數位電容式結構,包括利用兩感應層分別設置於觸控螢幕板體之下方與上方,並將兩感應層分別接地並連接至一控制電路,運作時藉由使用者的手指或導體碰觸的瞬間產生一電容效應,可藉由電容值的變化確定手指或導體的位置,然此種以電容值變化來確定手指或導體位置的觸控式螢幕,常有因承受反覆應力而變形導致損害的缺點。 According to the touch-sensitive screen, the sensing device is mainly a digital capacitive structure, which comprises two sensing layers respectively disposed below and above the touch screen body, and the two sensing layers are respectively grounded and connected to a control circuit. During operation, a capacitive effect is generated by the moment the user touches the finger or the conductor, and the position of the finger or the conductor can be determined by the change of the capacitance value. However, the touch type of the finger or the conductor position is determined by the change of the capacitance value. Screens often have the disadvantage of being damaged by deformation stress.

後來,則有人再研發出利用紅外線受阻斷以探測手指或導體位置的觸控式螢幕,然此種結構所需要的是成排或線性的許多一對一發射與接收對沿著螢幕設置才可感知觸控體的介入,此種結構又有成本較高的缺失。 Later, some people developed a touch screen that uses infrared light to block the position of the finger or conductor. However, this structure requires a number of one-to-one transmission and reception pairs arranged in a row or linearly along the screen. It can sense the intervention of the touch body, and this structure has a high cost.

因此為有效解決上述缺失,本案發明人乃研發出此一利用LED紅外線光波阻斷之反射原理所形成觸控式螢幕裝置。 Therefore, in order to effectively solve the above-mentioned shortcomings, the inventor of the present invention developed a touch screen device formed by the reflection principle of LED infrared light wave blocking.

本發明係提供觸控螢幕系統改良,主要係於螢幕之左右兩側適當位置處分別設有LED紅外線發射接收器,該發射接收器之發射端係可發射出LED紅外線光波並於螢幕表面布滿球狀波(Spherical Wave),當該螢幕表面在接收到觸控體的侵入時,其球狀波(Spherical Wave)會受到干擾阻斷後並予以反射,其反射之波段則為發射接受器之接收端所感應,接收端在接收到反射之訊號後會透過核心邏輯單元運算,而分析出觸控體的位置座標,除了具有製造成本低廉、訊號傳輸迅速的優勢外,還可改進習用電容式觸控螢幕因承受反覆應力而變形損害的缺失,有效增進觸控式螢幕使用壽命及達到使用普及化等功效。 The invention provides an improvement of the touch screen system, which is mainly provided with LED infrared emitting receivers at appropriate positions on the left and right sides of the screen, and the emitting end of the transmitting receiver can emit LED infrared light waves and is full on the surface of the screen. Spherical wave, when the surface of the screen receives the intrusion of the touch body, the Spherical Wave will be blocked by the interference and reflected, and the reflection band is the transmitting receiver. The receiving end senses that after receiving the reflected signal, the receiving end will calculate the position coordinates of the touch body through the core logic unit, and in addition to the advantages of low manufacturing cost and rapid signal transmission, the conventional capacitive type can be improved. The touch screen is lack of deformation damage due to the repeated stress, which effectively improves the service life of the touch screen and achieves universal use.

請參閱第一圖所示,主要包括有一螢幕(1),在該螢幕(1)的兩側端適當位置處分別設有LED紅外線發射接收器(11),該LED紅外線發射接受器(11)係同時具有發射LED紅外線光波及接收光波的裝置,稱之為發射端(111)及接收端(112),利用兩端之發射端(111)所發射出LED紅外線光波可形成球狀波(Spherical Wave)布滿整個螢幕而成形影像訊號感測網,當有觸控體(13)侵入此一影像訊號感測網中時,其LED紅外線光波會受到阻斷並予以反射而使接收端(112)能接收到被反射之光波以分別擷取出目標影像,並將該等目標影像傳輸至與其電性連接之LED紅外線影像訊號擷取電路(2)中,在經過雜訊濾波器(3)後傳輸至影像分析電路(4)中,藉由核心邏輯運算(41)的方式將兩目標影像進行比較,並進行計算以定位兩目標影像所對應之觸控體(13)於該螢幕(1)上之位置。 Referring to the first figure, a screen (1) is mainly included, and an LED infrared emitting receiver (11) is respectively disposed at appropriate positions on both sides of the screen (1), and the LED infrared emitting receiver (11) The device also has a device for emitting LED infrared light waves and receiving light waves, which is called a transmitting end (111) and a receiving end (112), and the infrared light waves emitted by the emitting end (111) at both ends can form a spherical wave (Spherical) Wave) forms an image signal sensing network that fills the entire screen. When a touch object (13) intrudes into the image sensing network, the LED infrared light wave is blocked and reflected to the receiving end (112). Receiving the reflected light wave to extract the target image separately, and transmitting the target image to the LED infrared image signal capturing circuit (2) electrically connected thereto, after passing through the noise filter (3) Transfer to the image analysis circuit (4), compare the two target images by the core logic operation (41), and perform calculation to locate the touch object (13) corresponding to the two target images on the screen (1) The location on the top.

而上述之核心邏輯運算方式就是在光波自發射端(111)發射後碰觸到觸控體(13)而被反射為接收端(112)接收為止,有一個發射與接收間的時間差,將該時差乘以光速即可算出觸控體(13)與LED紅外線光波發射接收器(11)間的距離,以發射端(111)及接收端(112)的中間處為中心點,以計算出之距離為直徑形成一個四分之一圓,而兩端的LED紅外線發射接收器(11)皆以此方式分別形成有四分之一圓,兩個四分之一圓在螢幕(1)上會形成一個交錯點,該交錯點在經過運算後即被得知為觸控體(13)在螢幕上的座標位置。 The core logic operation method described above is that after the light wave is emitted from the transmitting end (111) and touched to the touch body (13) and reflected to the receiving end (112), there is a time difference between transmitting and receiving. The time difference is multiplied by the speed of light to calculate the distance between the touch body (13) and the LED infrared light wave transmitting receiver (11), and the center point of the transmitting end (111) and the receiving end (112) is used as a center point to calculate The distance forms a quarter circle for the diameter, and the LED infrared emitting receivers (11) at both ends are respectively formed with a quarter circle in this way, and two quarter circles are formed on the screen (1). An interlaced point that is known as the coordinate position of the touch object (13) on the screen after the operation.

請參閱第二圖所示,第二圖為另一較佳實施例,主要係將原本存在一構件中的發射端(111)及接收端(112)分開設置處於螢幕上不同位置處,意即兩個發射端(111)呈對角線置放,而兩個接收端(112)亦呈對角線置放;換言之,每一個發射端(111)與每一個接收端(112)係位於螢幕(1)之同一側,而對角設置之兩個發射端(111)同樣能發射出LED紅外線光波而使螢幕(1)布滿球狀波(Spherical Wave),當有觸控體(13)侵入該球狀波(Spherical Wave)內予以阻斷波長時,被阻斷之波長會形成反射並為接收端(112)所感應接收並形成目標影像,該目標影像被傳輸至與其電性連接之LED紅外線 影像訊號擷取電路(2)中,在經過雜訊濾波器(3)後傳輸至影像分析電路(4)中,藉由核心邏輯運算(41)的方式將兩目標影像進行比較,並進行計算以定位兩目標影像所對應之觸控體(13)於該螢幕(1)上之位置。 Referring to the second figure, the second figure is another preferred embodiment, which mainly divides the transmitting end (111) and the receiving end (112) which are originally present in one component at different positions on the screen, that is, The two transmitting ends (111) are placed diagonally, and the two receiving ends (112) are also placed diagonally; in other words, each transmitting end (111) and each receiving end (112) are located on the screen. On the same side of (1), the two transmitting ends (111) of the diagonal setting can also emit LED infrared light waves to make the screen (1) full of spherical waves (Spherical Wave), when there is a touch body (13) When the wavelength is blocked by invading the Spherical Wave, the blocked wavelength forms a reflection and is inductively received by the receiving end (112) to form a target image, and the target image is transmitted to be electrically connected thereto. LED infrared The image signal acquisition circuit (2) is transmitted to the image analysis circuit (4) after passing through the noise filter (3), and the two target images are compared and calculated by the core logic operation (41). The position of the touch object (13) corresponding to the two target images on the screen (1) is located.

而前述核心邏輯運算方式與第一圖所述相同,同樣是在光波自發射端(111)發射後碰觸到觸控體(13)而被反射為接收端(112)接收為止,有一個發射與接收間的時間差,將該時差乘以光速即可算出觸控體(13)與LED紅外線光波發射接收器(11)間的距離,以發射端(111)及接收端(112)的中間處為中心點,以計算出之距離為直徑形成一個四分之一圓,兩個四分之一圓在螢幕(1)上會形成一個交錯點,該交錯點在經過運算後即被得知為觸控體(13)在螢幕上之座標位置。 The foregoing core logic operation mode is the same as that described in the first figure, and is also transmitted after the light wave is emitted from the transmitting end (111) and touched to the touch body (13) and reflected as the receiving end (112). The time difference between the reception and the reception, the time difference is multiplied by the speed of light to calculate the distance between the touch body (13) and the LED infrared light wave transmitting receiver (11), at the middle of the transmitting end (111) and the receiving end (112). For the center point, the calculated distance is a quarter circle formed by the diameter, and the two quarter circles form an interlacing point on the screen (1), which is known as The coordinate body (13) is at the coordinate position on the screen.

本案所揭露之技術,得有熟習本技術人士據以實施,而其前所未有之作法及增進功效亦具備專利性,爰依法提出專利之申請。惟上述之實施例尚不足以涵蓋本案所欲保護之專利範圍,因此提出申請專利範圍如附。 The technology disclosed in this case must be implemented by people familiar with the technology, and its unprecedented practices and enhancements are also patentable, and applications for patents are filed according to law.
