Description
本案是關於一種滑蓋機構,特別是關於一種能夠以手動或自動形式開關的滑蓋機構,並具有半自動且滑順開關的效果。This case is about a sliding cover mechanism, especially a sliding cover mechanism that can be opened and closed manually or automatically, and has the effect of semi-automatic and smooth opening and closing.
隨著時代進步,電子產品變得更加地精緻。為了保護電子產品的細部零件不因外力撞擊、粉塵或液體的侵入而受損,同時兼顧使用的便利性,通常會採用殼體搭配可開關蓋體的方式保護電子產品。As the times progress, electronic products have become more refined. In order to protect the detailed parts of the electronic product from damage due to external impact, dust or liquid intrusion, while taking into account the convenience of use, the electronic product is usually protected by a shell with a switchable cover.
除此之外,現代社會對於生活品質越發講究;滿足功能性之餘也重視使用者的體驗,因此有自動滑蓋機構的發明。自動滑蓋機構使用電力以替代人力,而達到不需要花費額外力氣就能開關滑蓋的功效。In addition, modern society pays more attention to the quality of life; in addition to satisfying functionality, it also attaches importance to the user's experience, so an automatic sliding mechanism was invented. The automatic sliding cover mechanism uses electricity to replace manpower, and achieves the effect of opening and closing the sliding cover without additional effort.
無法避免的是,儘管科技如何進步,電子產品終究有電力無法順利傳遞的風險。因此有必要提出一種在電能無法順利被傳遞的情況下,仍然能夠透過手動方式開啟的滑蓋機構。What is unavoidable is that despite the advancement of technology, electronic products will eventually run the risk that electricity cannot be delivered smoothly. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a sliding cover mechanism that can still be opened manually when the electric energy cannot be transferred smoothly.
為了達到自動控制的效果,驅動裝置的連動元件多與被驅動的元件固接或是卡合以進行「連動」,也就是同步的運動。In order to achieve the effect of automatic control, the linkage elements of the driving device are mostly fixed or engaged with the driven element to perform "linkage", that is, synchronized movement.
然而在驅動裝置不通電的情況下多有機械阻擋,所以自動化的設備在失去電力之後通常無法或難以手動的方式開關滑蓋。However, when the driving device is not energized, there are often mechanical obstructions. Therefore, it is usually impossible or difficult for automated equipment to manually open and close the sliding cover after losing power.
因此,如何提出一種手動時不會遇到機械阻力且被驅動的元件能夠維持開/關的滑蓋機構,已成為重要的課題之一。Therefore, how to propose a sliding cover mechanism that does not encounter mechanical resistance during manual operation and that the driven element can maintain open/close has become one of the important issues.
有鑑於上述課題,本案之目的為提供一種能夠手動或自動形式開關的滑蓋機構,並具有半自動且滑順開關的效果。In view of the above-mentioned problems, the purpose of this case is to provide a sliding cover mechanism that can be opened and closed manually or automatically, and has the effect of semi-automatic and smooth opening and closing.
為達上述目的,依據本案的一種滑蓋機構包括蓋體、面板、滑動件、彈性件以及驅動裝置。面板包括第一側及第二側,第一側及第二側相對應而設置,其中蓋體滑設於第一側。滑動件連結蓋體並可移動地設置於面板的第二側,滑動件包括第一端部及第二端部,第一端部及第二端部相對應而設置。彈性件的一端固設於面板、而另一端固設於滑動件,彈性件在滑動件移動時形變而提供彈力。驅動裝置連結面板,驅動裝置包括撥桿及傳動組件。撥桿位於第一端部與第二端部之間。傳動組件能夠帶動撥桿而使第一端部或第二端部移動,藉此使滑動件帶動蓋體移動,其中傳動組件帶動撥桿而使滑動件帶動蓋體移動或蓋體受外力帶動滑動件移動,並在彈性件的兩端的連線垂直於滑動件的一移動方向時,彈力能夠帶動滑動件往移動方向移動。To achieve the above objective, a sliding cover mechanism according to this case includes a cover, a panel, a sliding member, an elastic member, and a driving device.

在一實施例中,當傳動組件所提供驅動力帶動撥桿而使第二端部移動且當彈性件的兩端的連線垂直於滑動件的移動方向時,彈性件產生向第二端部的方向的彈力,驅動力停止作用而由彈力繼續帶動滑動件移動,以使滑動件帶動蓋體移動並露出開口。In one embodiment, when the driving force provided by the transmission assembly drives the lever to move the second end, and when the connection line between the two ends of the elastic member is perpendicular to the moving direction of the sliding member, the elastic member generates a movement toward the second end. The elastic force in the direction, the driving force stops and the elastic force continues to drive the sliding member to move, so that the sliding member drives the cover to move and expose the opening.
在一實施例中,第一端部及第二端部分別突設有第一凸部及第二凸部;撥桿帶動第一凸部或第二凸部移動。In an embodiment, the first end and the second end are respectively protruding with a first convex portion and a second convex portion; the shift lever drives the first convex portion or the second convex portion to move.

在一實施例中,彈性件為扭力彈簧或彈片。In an embodiment, the elastic member is a torsion spring or an elastic piece.
承上所述,在本案的滑蓋機構中,透過將滑動件在移動方向的二個相對側分別設置第一端部及第二端部,以及使用不與滑動件固接或卡合的撥桿,使得本案的滑蓋機構可以使用手動或自動的方式開關此滑蓋機構。As mentioned above, in the sliding cover mechanism of this case, the first end and the second end are respectively provided on the two opposite sides of the sliding member in the moving direction, and a dial that is not fixed or engaged with the sliding member is used. Lever, so that the sliding cover mechanism of this case can be switched on and off manually or automatically.
更值得一提的是,當使用者採以手動的方式,例如但不限於挪動/滑動/撥動本案的蓋體(連動滑動件)時,因為滑動件與撥桿之間的關係並非卡合或固接,而是第一端部與第二端部之間還留有一個空間(距離)。因此,使用者不會感受到機械阻力。也就是說,在手動的情況下,滑動件不會接觸屬於驅動裝置的撥桿,所以也不會受到來自於傳動組件的機械阻力。What’s more worth mentioning is that when the user uses a manual method, such as but not limited to moving/sliding/toggling the cover (linked sliding part) of this case, because the relationship between the sliding part and the lever is not engaged Or fixed connection, but there is still a space (distance) between the first end and the second end. Therefore, the user will not feel mechanical resistance. That is to say, in the case of manual operation, the sliding member will not contact the shift lever belonging to the driving device, so it will not receive mechanical resistance from the transmission assembly.
除此之外,透過將彈性件的一端固設於面板且另一端固設於滑動件,使得本案的滑蓋機構可以產生半自動且滑順開關的效果。所謂半自動的意思是使用者不需要完全的動作便能夠使物件(蓋體)完全的移動或運動至目的地;至於使用何種能量(能源)、朝向任一個方向或應用於何種裝置,本案不作限制。In addition, by fixing one end of the elastic member to the panel and the other end to the sliding member, the sliding cover mechanism of this case can produce a semi-automatic and smooth opening and closing effect. The so-called semi-automatic means that the user can completely move or move the object (cover) to the destination without complete action; as to what kind of energy (energy) is used, in any direction, or what kind of device it is applied to, this case No restrictions.
承上所述,本案的滑蓋機構是藉由在滑動件搭配彈性件的設置,使得滑蓋機構可以在手動或自動的方式開/關,且利用彈性件的回復力反轉作用而能產生半自動且滑順的效果。除此之外,手動(外力推動蓋體運動)的過程中,驅動裝置因不需作動,滑動件的第一端部及第二端部不接觸撥桿而不會有受到機械阻擋的感覺,因此能夠提高使用者體驗。As mentioned above, the sliding cover mechanism in this case is equipped with the sliding part and the elastic part, so that the sliding cover mechanism can be opened/closed manually or automatically, and can be produced by the reversal effect of the restoring force of the elastic part. Semi-automatic and smooth effect. In addition, in the process of manual (external force pushing the cover to move), the driving device does not need to be actuated, and the first and second ends of the sliding member do not touch the lever and will not feel mechanically blocked. Therefore, the user experience can be improved.

如圖1A所示,本案的滑蓋機構1可以例如但不限應用於手機100或攝像(影)機的鏡頭的關蓋及開蓋,或是應用於任何需要關蓋及開蓋的電子產品。As shown in FIG. 1A, the sliding
圖1B及圖1C分別為本案一實施例的滑蓋機構1的關蓋及開蓋狀態示意圖,而圖1D為圖1B的後視圖。如圖1B~圖1E所示,滑蓋機構1包括蓋體11、面板13、滑動件14、彈性件15、及驅動裝置17。在本實施例中,面板13包括第一側131及第二側132,第一側131及第二側132相對應而設置。蓋體11滑設於第一側131,滑動件14連結蓋體11並可移動地設置於面板13的第二側132;滑動件14在移動方向(如圖1C所示箭頭方向)的二個相對側分別包括第一端部1431及第二端部1432,即第一端部1431及第二端部1432相對應而設置。彈性件15的一端固設於面板13、另一端固設於滑動件14,彈性件15在滑動件14移動時形變而提供彈力,使得滑蓋機構1在以自動提供驅動力或手動提供外力開/關蓋運動還具有半自動且滑順移動的效果。驅動裝置17連結面板13,驅動裝置17包括撥桿171及傳動組件,撥桿171位於第一端部1431與第二端部1432之間;傳動組件能夠帶動撥桿171而使第一端部1431或第二端部1432移動。驅動開/關蓋運動可由設置於滑蓋機構1內部的驅動裝置17以自動方式提供驅動力;或是,可由其他外力以手動方式提供,外力例如但不限於是使用者的手部,尤其是手指推動。FIG. 1B and FIG. 1C are respectively a schematic diagram of the closing and opening states of the
面板13更可包括一開口133,蓋體11用以遮蔽或露出開口133,且蓋體11的面積不小於開口133的面積,即蓋體11的面積要大於或等於開口133的面積。The
如圖1C、圖1E及圖2A所示,面板13在其平面上更可具有至少一條使蓋體11能夠連接位於面板13的第二側(後側)132的滑動件14的蓋體軌道134。如圖2A所示,蓋體11是透過連接部145與滑動件14固接,因此蓋體11與滑動件14會共同運動而彼此不作相對運動。如圖1B~圖1C所示,蓋體11沿著蓋體軌道134水平移動(如圖1C所示箭頭方向)。As shown in FIGS. 1C, 1E, and 2A, the
如圖1E所示,面板13於第二側132更突設有平行於蓋體軌道134的滑動軌道135。滑動軌道135設有止擋部1351,止擋部1351例如但不限於設置於滑動軌道135的兩側終點及/或中點位置。當滑動件14在滑動軌道135運動,而第二端部1432或第一端部1431抵頂止擋部1351時,蓋體11完全遮蔽開口133(圖1B)或完全不遮蔽開口133(圖1C)。As shown in FIG. 1E, the
在一實施例中,滑動件14可呈實心的滑板或滑塊,形狀大致呈現例如但不限於四邊形、I字形、橫置的I字形、H字形或N字形,在移動方向的二個相對側具有第一端部1431及第二端部1432。In one embodiment, the sliding
滑動件14更對應設置於滑動軌道135,第一端部1431及第二端部1432在移動方向的二側稍微向上及向下突出,突出的構造(以下簡稱突出部)穿過滑動軌道135,使滑動件14在滑動軌道135(如圖1E所示,與面板13平面之間的縫隙)內運動。The sliding
滑動件14的第一端部1431及第二端部1432更可分別在遠離面板13的方向上突設有第一凸部1441及第二凸部1442,本案不作限制。藉由上述突出部、第一凸部1441及第二凸部1442相對於滑動軌道135的設置,滑動件14在垂直於滑動軌道135的方向上被限制其運動,而無法上下移動,只能限制在滑動軌道135內移動。The
在一實施例中,滑蓋機構1更可透過將突設的滑動軌道135的突設高度(程度)高過於滑動件14的厚度,使得彈性件15能夠一端固設於面板13例如但不限於上方滑動軌道135的止擋部1351上的凸點,另一端固設於滑動件14例如但不限於滑動件14靠近下方的凸點。In one embodiment, the sliding
在一實施例中,彈性件15例如但不限於扭力彈簧(扭簧)、或彈片。本實施例中是以扭簧作為例示。當彈性件15受到來自左方的力(向右的力)時其回復力是朝向左方;然而,當向右的力到達某種程度的力量時其回復力轉而是朝向右方。也就是說,設置彈性件15使得滑蓋機構1在「自動」的開/關蓋運動過程中,撥桿171或使用者的手部(尤其是手指)動作不需要將滑動件14的第一端部1431或第二端部1432帶動至滑動軌道135最靠近鏡頭20的一端或最遠離鏡頭20的一端,透過彈性件15的回復力反轉機制,即能在自動的開/關蓋運動過程尚未完成,但已到達彈性件15的回復力反轉作用發生,就能透過彈性件15提供的彈力完成後續的開/關蓋運動,因此具有省時省力及符合人體工學的功效(參見圖2A~圖3C所示)。In an embodiment, the
同樣地,設置彈性件15使得滑蓋機構1在「手動」的開/關蓋運動過程中,使用者的手部(尤其是手指)動作不需要將蓋體11帶動至滑動軌道135最靠近鏡頭20的一端或最遠離鏡頭20的一端,透過彈性件15的回復力反轉機制,即能在手動的開/關蓋運動過程尚未完成,但已到達彈性件15的回復力反轉作用發生,就能透過彈性件15提供的彈力完成後續的開/關蓋運動,因此具有省時省力及符合人體工學的功效(參見圖4A~圖4G所示)。Similarly, the
再如圖1E及圖2A所示,滑蓋機構1更可包括殼體16,其用以收納驅動裝置17的撥桿171、馬達172及傳動組件於其中;殼體16連結面板13的第二側132,且設有容置空間161及撥桿軌道166。傳動組件包括螺桿173及馬達172,容置空間161至少限制地容置螺桿173及撥桿171。撥桿171的一端延伸至螺桿173的兩個相鄰螺牙1734之間的凹部1733;撥桿171的另一端則延伸穿過撥桿軌道166,並且延伸至足以帶動第一凸部1441或第二凸部1442的位置。馬達172驅動螺桿173轉動,連動撥桿171沿著撥桿軌道166運動。As shown in FIGS. 1E and 2A, the sliding
由於撥桿171活動於撥桿軌道166,撥桿171在關蓋時又會帶動第一凸部1441運動,撥桿171在開蓋時又會帶動第二凸部1442運動,故撥桿軌道166的長度X實質等於第一凸部1441與第二凸部1442之間的距離;也就是說,在滑動件14移動方向(如圖1C所示箭頭方向),滑動件14的長度Z扣除第一凸部1441的寬度Y及第二凸部1442的寬度Y,會實質等於撥桿軌道166的長度(X=Z-2Y)。Since the
殼體16連結於面板13的第二側132的方式,可例如但不限於藉由固定件18將殼體16鎖固於面板13,使得滑動件14及彈性件15被限制地容置於面板13與殼體16之間。滑動件14可以沿著滑動軌道135水平移動(如圖1C所示箭頭方向)。The manner in which the
殼體16更設有固定蓋167,藉由固定蓋167封閉容置空間161,使容置其中的撥桿171及螺桿173處於封閉環境,較不易累積灰塵,維持元件運作的可靠度。The
如圖1E及圖2A所示,在組裝完畢的滑蓋機構1中,容置空間161之間具有通孔164。馬達172透過通孔164直接驅動螺桿173轉動;本實施例的結構雖以直接驅動作說明,但馬達172也可透過齒輪組(圖未顯示)間接驅動螺桿173轉動;或者,馬達172與螺桿173之間還可以有其他元件的不同配置,只要馬達172能驅動螺桿173轉動即可,本案不作限制。As shown in FIG. 1E and FIG. 2A, in the assembled sliding
圖2A~圖2C為本案一實施例的自動開蓋運動示意圖。另外,圖4A~圖4C為本案一實施例的彈性件作用機制示意圖,因為此彈性件作用機制並不限作用於自動或手動開蓋運動或關蓋運動,所以在以下說明(1)自動開蓋運動、(2)手動開蓋運動、(3)自動關蓋運動、(4)手動關蓋運動的段落中被引用,並且在(2)手動開蓋運動段落詳細記載本案彈性件15的作用機制。2A to 2C are schematic diagrams of the automatic lid opening movement of an embodiment of the present invention. In addition, FIGS. 4A to 4C are schematic diagrams of the action mechanism of the elastic member according to an embodiment of the present invention. Because the action mechanism of the elastic member is not limited to the automatic or manual lid opening or closing movement, the following description (1) automatic opening Lid movement, (2) manual lid opening movement, (3) automatic lid closing movement, (4) manual lid closing movement are cited in the paragraphs, and the function of the
(( 11 )) 自動automatic 開蓋運動Open lid movement
如圖2A及圖4A所示,自動開蓋時,馬達172開始運作而驅動螺桿173開始轉動,而螺桿173帶動撥桿171移動,致使撥桿171往遠離鏡頭20的方向(以下簡稱左側)移動。As shown in Figures 2A and 4A, when the cover is automatically opened, the
當撥桿171開始向左側移動並抵頂帶動第二端部1432突設的第二凸部1442時,滑動件14隨著撥桿171向左側移動;因為蓋體11與滑動件14固接,所以蓋體11也一同向左側移動。又彈性件15的一端固接於滑動件14(此端以下簡稱下方小圈),而另一端固接於面板13(此端以下簡稱上方小圈)。因此,隨著滑動件14的移動,彈性件15受到外力而開始變形並產生向右的回復力(即圖4A變化至圖4B的過程)。When the
如圖2B及圖4B所示,當彈性件15的下方小圈與上方小圈的連線垂直於滑動軌道135的方向時,彈性件15的變形到達了一個不穩定的狀態(或稱反曲點),開始要轉而產生向左(向第二端部1432的方向)的回復力(彈力)。當彈性件15開始產生向左的回復力時,螺桿173及撥桿171不需要再繼續作動,此時回復力反轉作用即開始發生,回復力將直接向左側推動滑動件14。As shown in Figures 2B and 4B, when the connecting line between the lower circle and the upper circle of the
如圖2C及圖4C所示,滑動件14藉由彈性件15產生的向左的回復力而向左側移動或彈出,直到滑動件14的第二端部1432到達滑動軌道135的左側末端才會停止。此時,蓋體11不與開口133及鏡頭20重疊,而將鏡頭20完全外顯於面板13。As shown in FIGS. 2C and 4C, the sliding
另外,當以例如光線感測器(圖未顯示)確認完成自動開蓋運動後,馬達172會驅動螺桿173而帶動撥桿171自圖2C的位置(受驅動後的位置)復位到圖2A的位置(受驅動前的位置),以確保後續以手動關蓋時,第二凸部1442不會受到撥桿171的阻擋而無法完全關蓋。In addition, when the automatic lid opening movement is confirmed by a light sensor (not shown in the figure), for example, the
(( 22 )) 手動Manual 開蓋運動Open lid movement
如圖4D~圖4G所示,在本案手動開蓋的過程中,馬達172因不需驅動螺桿173而帶動撥桿171,為同時清楚表現彈性件15達成半自動功效的原理,故於圖中省略部分前述元件(馬達172、螺桿173及撥桿171)。另外,圖4D、圖4F~圖4G特別分別對應圖4A~圖4C所示滑蓋機構1於圖4A所示剖面線B-B以下部分的手動開蓋運動俯視圖。需注意者,在圖4D~圖4E中,因彈性件15兩端中間的大彈簧圈(下稱大圈)因為位於剖面線B-B的上方所以不出現於圖中;只有在圖4F~圖4G中,此時大圈因為位於剖面線B-B的下方所以出現於圖中。As shown in FIGS. 4D to 4G, during the manual opening process of this case, the
如圖4A及圖4D所示,滑蓋機構1呈現關蓋狀態,關蓋狀態是指蓋體11完全遮蔽開口133及鏡頭20的狀態。如圖4D所示,此時,當一外力推動蓋體11運動,例如但不限於以手指推動或挪動蓋體11,而連動滑動件14朝向遠離鏡頭20的方向(以下簡稱左側)移動。在整個外力推動過程中,第一端部1431及第二端部1432不接觸撥桿171,因而使用者不會有受到機械阻擋的感覺。As shown in FIGS. 4A and 4D, the sliding
如圖4E所示,使用手指開始推動蓋體11向左側移動,因為蓋體11與滑動件14固接,所以滑動件14也一同向左側移動;又彈性件15的一端固接於滑動件14,而另一端固接於面板13,所以彈性件15受到手指推動蓋體11的外力而開始變形並產生向右的回復力。As shown in Figure 4E, use your fingers to start pushing the
如圖4B及圖4F所示,當彈性件15的下方小圈與上方小圈的連線垂直於滑動軌道135的方向時,彈性件15的變形到達了一個不穩定的狀態(或稱反曲點),開始要轉而產生向左的回復力。As shown in Figures 4B and 4F, when the connection between the lower circle and the upper circle of the
如圖4C及圖4G所示,彈性件15開始產生向左(向第二端部1432的方向)的回復力(彈力),此時回復力反轉作用發生,回復力直接將滑動件14向左側推動;滑動件14藉由彈性件15產生的向左的回復力而向左側移動或彈出,直到滑動件14的第二端部1432到達滑動軌道135的左側末端才會停止,而將鏡頭20完全外顯於面板13。As shown in Figures 4C and 4G, the
當滑蓋機構1自圖4F轉變為圖4G的過程中,使用者的手指已經不需要與蓋體11接觸,也不用推動或挪動蓋體11,藉由彈性件15的回復力反轉作用,產生半自動且滑順的開蓋效果。When the sliding
以上清楚說明了自動及手動開蓋的過程,自動與手動的作動機制僅有些微的不同,可參酌前述段落的作動原理。The above clearly explains the automatic and manual lid opening process. The automatic and manual actuation mechanisms are only slightly different. You can refer to the actuation principles in the preceding paragraphs.
以下依序說明自動關蓋運動及手動關蓋運動。The following describes the automatic lid closing movement and the manual lid closing movement in order.
(( 33 )自動關蓋運動) Automatic closing movement
圖3A~圖3C為本案一實施例的自動關蓋運動示意圖。Figures 3A to 3C are schematic diagrams of the automatic lid closing movement of an embodiment of the present invention.
如圖3A及圖4C所示,在本案自動關蓋的過程中,馬達172開始運作而驅動螺桿173開始轉動,而螺桿173帶動撥桿171移動,致使撥桿171往靠近鏡頭20的方向(以下簡稱右側)移動。As shown in Figures 3A and 4C, in the process of automatically closing the cover in this case, the
當撥桿171開始向右側移動並抵頂帶動第一端部1431突設的第一凸部1441時,滑動件14隨著撥桿171向右側移動;因為蓋體11與滑動件14固接,所以蓋體11也一同向右側移動;又彈性件15的一端固接於滑動件14,而另一端固接於面板13。因此,隨著滑動件14的移動,彈性件15受到外力而開始變形並產生向左的回復力(即圖4C變化至圖4B的過程)。When the
如圖3B及圖4B所示,當彈性件15的下方小圈與上方小圈的連線垂直於滑動軌道135的方向時,彈性件15的變形到達了一個不穩定的狀態(或稱反曲點),開始要轉而產生向右(向第一端部1431的方向)的回復力(彈力)。當彈性件15開始產生向右的回復力時,螺桿173及撥桿171不需要再繼續作動,此時回復力反轉作用即開始發生,回復力將直接向左側推動滑動件14。As shown in Figures 3B and 4B, when the connection between the lower circle and the upper circle of the
如圖3C及圖4A所示,滑動件14藉由彈性件15產生的向右的回復力而向右側移動或彈出,直到滑動件14的第一端部1431到達滑動軌道135的右側末端才會停止。此時,蓋體11與開口133及鏡頭20重疊,開口133及鏡頭20完全被蓋體11遮蔽。As shown in FIGS. 3C and 4A, the sliding
另外,當以例如光線感測器(圖未顯示)確認完成自動關蓋運動後,馬達172會驅動螺桿173而帶動撥桿171自圖3C的位置(受驅動後的位置)復位到圖3A的位置(受驅動前的位置),以確保後續以手動開蓋時,第一凸部1441不會受到撥桿171的阻擋而無法完全開蓋。In addition, when a light sensor (not shown) is used to confirm that the automatic lid closing movement is completed, the
(( 44 )手動關蓋運動) Manual closing movement
在本實施例中,元件結構與(2)手動開蓋運動段落所述的滑蓋機構1相同,因此不再贅述其元件組成並省略圖式。手動關蓋運動可以透過圖4A~圖4G作解釋,但其元件動作的方向及圖式說明順序與(2)手動開蓋運動段落相反。同樣地,在整個外力推動過程中,第一端部1431及第二端部1432不接觸撥桿171,因而不會有受到機械阻擋的感覺。In this embodiment, the component structure is the same as the sliding
如圖4C及圖4G所示,滑蓋機構1呈現開蓋狀態,開蓋狀態是指蓋體11完全不遮蔽開口133及鏡頭20的狀態。如圖4G所示,此時使用者例如但不限於可以使用手指推動或挪動蓋體11,而連動滑動件14朝向靠近鏡頭20的方向(以下簡稱右側)移動。As shown in FIGS. 4C and 4G, the sliding
如圖4C、圖4F及圖4G所示,在圖4G變化至圖4F的過程中,因為蓋體11與滑動件14固接,所以滑動件14也一同向右側移動;又彈性件15的一端固接於滑動件14,而另一端固接於面板13,所以彈性件15受到手指推動蓋體11的外力而開始變形並產生向左的回復力。As shown in FIGS. 4C, 4F, and 4G, in the process of changing from FIG. 4G to FIG. 4F, because the
如圖4B所示,當彈性件15的下方小圈與上方小圈的連線垂直於滑動軌道135的方向時,彈性件15的變形到達了一個不穩定的狀態(或稱反曲點),開始要轉而產生向右(向第一端部1431的方向)的回復力(彈力)。As shown in Fig. 4B, when the connection between the lower circle and the upper circle of the
如圖4A及圖4D所示,彈性件15開始產生向右的回復力,此時回復力反轉作用發生,回復力直接將滑動件14向右側推動;滑動件14藉由彈性件15產生的向右的回復力而向右側移動或彈出,直到滑動件14的第一端部1431到達滑動軌道135的右側末端才會停止。開口133及鏡頭20完全被蓋體11遮蔽。As shown in Figures 4A and 4D, the
當滑蓋機構1自圖4B轉變為圖4A的過程中,使用者的手指已經不需要與蓋體11接觸,也不用推動或挪動蓋體11,藉由彈性件15的回復力反轉作用,產生半自動且滑順的關蓋效果。When the sliding
在其他實施例中,滑動件亦可呈框體結構(未繪示),形狀大致呈現例如但不限於四邊形、六邊形、八邊形等任意形式的框體結構,在移動方向的二個相對側同樣具有第一端部及第二端部(未繪示)。In other embodiments, the sliding member may also have a frame structure (not shown), and the shape roughly presents a frame structure of any form such as but not limited to quadrilateral, hexagon, octagon, etc., two in the moving direction The opposite side also has a first end and a second end (not shown).
第一端部及第二端部是指框體結構在移動方向的二個相對側的端部,撥桿171得以抵頂帶動第一端部或第二端部。相對於實心的滑板或滑塊,框體結構具有減輕滑蓋結構1(滑動件14)重量的功效,而符合電子產品輕量化的趨勢。The first end and the second end refer to the ends of the frame structure on two opposite sides in the moving direction, and the
在其他實施例中,驅動裝置的傳動組件可包括齒條、齒輪組及馬達172。撥桿171延伸至齒條的二個相鄰凸齒之間的凹部,齒輪組連動齒條,而馬達172驅動齒輪組轉動以帶動齒條運動,再帶動撥桿171移動。In other embodiments, the transmission component of the driving device may include a rack, a gear set, and a
綜上所述,本案的滑蓋機構1是藉由在滑動件14搭配彈性件15的設置,使得滑蓋機構1可以在手動或自動的方式開/關,且利用彈性件15的回復力反轉作用而能產生半自動且滑順的效果。此外,手動(外力推動蓋體11運動)的過程中,驅動裝置17(馬達172)因不需作動,滑動件14的第一端部1431及第二端部1432不接觸撥桿171而不會有受到機械阻擋的感覺,因此能夠提高使用者體驗。To sum up, the sliding
