Description
本創作是有關一種輸入裝置,且特別是有關於一種運用在平板電腦的輔助輸入裝置。The present invention relates to an input device, and more particularly to an auxiliary input device for use in a tablet computer.
隨著平板電腦在日常生活中越來越普及,觸控面板的碰觸操作越來越頻繁,平板電腦為節省重量及機械空間,將傳統筆記型電腦的實體鍵盤取消,而改以顯示畫面中的虛擬鍵盤代替。As tablet PCs become more and more popular in daily life, the touch panel touch operation is more and more frequent. In order to save weight and mechanical space, the tablet computer cancels the physical keyboard of the traditional notebook computer and changes to the display screen. Virtual keyboard instead.
然而,虛擬鍵盤並無法取代實體鍵盤的操作便利性,其原因在於虛擬鍵盤面對輸入動作時,必須仰賴眼睛的視覺來決定虛擬按鍵的位置,使輸入文字的速度大幅受到限制。相較之下,實體鍵盤可直接提供形狀觸覺給使用者,令使用者不必依賴視覺便可輕易為之。However, the virtual keyboard cannot replace the convenience of the physical keyboard. The reason is that when the virtual keyboard faces the input action, the position of the virtual button must be determined depending on the eye's vision, so that the speed of inputting the text is greatly limited. In contrast, the physical keyboard can directly provide a shape touch to the user, so that the user can easily do it without relying on the visual.
因此,若使用平板電腦時須面對大量按鍵操作,則此時平板電腦的使用者多半會額外裝設一外接式實體鍵盤,以方便文書處理等動作。然而,外接式實體鍵盤必須以有線或者無線訊號的方式來與平板電腦連接,一則增加平板電腦耗電的速度,二則增加攜帶重量及空間。因此,外接式實體鍵盤在平板電腦中的接受度只限於特定族群而未被廣泛使用者接受。Therefore, if a tablet computer is required to face a large number of key operations, then the user of the tablet computer will be additionally equipped with an external physical keyboard to facilitate the processing of documents. However, the external physical keyboard must be connected to the tablet by wired or wireless signals, one increases the power consumption of the tablet, and the other increases the carrying weight and space. Therefore, the acceptance of the external physical keyboard in the tablet is limited to a specific ethnic group and is not accepted by a wide range of users.

復參照圖2至圖4,所述輔助鍵盤1包括一絕緣底盤11及數個導電鍵12,上述導電鍵12是以埋入射出方式而連接於所述絕緣底盤11。其中。絕緣底盤11為可任意彎折的一體成形構造,且絕緣底盤11的材質較佳為矽膠。若由結構的觀點來看,所述絕緣底盤11包含一片體111、數個彈性支撐部112、及數個連結部113。Referring to FIG. 2 to FIG. 4, the auxiliary keyboard 1 includes an insulating chassis 11 and a plurality of conductive keys 12, and the conductive keys 12 are connected to the insulating chassis 11 in a buried manner. among them. The insulating chassis 11 is an integrally formed structure that can be bent at will, and the material of the insulating chassis 11 is preferably silicone. The insulating chassis 11 includes a single body 111, a plurality of elastic supporting portions 112, and a plurality of connecting portions 113 from a structural point of view.
所述片體111具有位於相反側的一第一面1111與一第二面1112,且片體111形成有數個貫穿上述第一面1111與第二面1112的穿孔1113。其中,上述片體111形成有穿孔1113的部位大致對應於所述平板電腦200的觸控螢幕201,而片體111位於穿孔1113外側的部位大致呈U型且對應於平板電腦200的邊框202。再者,片體111的第二面1112凹設有數個溝槽1114,藉以使上述穿孔 1113能經由溝槽1114而相互連通,並能透過位於邊緣的溝槽1114而連通於外。The sheet body 111 has a first surface 1111 and a second surface 1112 on opposite sides, and the sheet body 111 is formed with a plurality of through holes 1113 extending through the first surface 1111 and the second surface 1112. The portion of the sheet body 111 in which the perforations 1113 are formed substantially corresponds to the touch screen 201 of the tablet computer 200 , and the portion of the sheet body 111 located outside the perforation 1113 is substantially U-shaped and corresponds to the frame 202 of the tablet computer 200 . Furthermore, the second surface 1112 of the sheet body 111 is recessed with a plurality of grooves 1114, thereby making the perforations 1113 can communicate with each other via the trench 1114 and can communicate with the outside through the trench 1114 at the edge.
每一彈性支撐部112具有相對的一第一端1121與一第二端1122,且該些彈性支撐部112的第一端1121分別連接於片體111,而該些彈性支撐部112的第二端1122分別連接於該些連結部113。更詳細地說,每一彈性支撐部112自片體111鄰近第一面1111的部位朝遠離第二面1112方向延伸形成,並續而延伸形成上述連結部113。其中,所述彈性支撐部112分別對應於上述片體111的穿孔1113,且每一彈性支撐部112所包圍的空間自第一端1121朝第二端1122方向逐漸地縮小。Each of the elastic support portions 112 has a first end 1121 and a second end 1122, and the first ends 1121 of the elastic support portions 112 are respectively connected to the sheet body 111, and the second elastic support portions 112 are second. The ends 1122 are respectively connected to the connecting portions 113. In more detail, each of the elastic supporting portions 112 is formed to extend away from the second surface 1112 from a portion of the sheet 111 adjacent to the first surface 1111, and continues to extend to form the connecting portion 113. The elastic support portions 112 respectively correspond to the through holes 1113 of the sheet body 111, and the space surrounded by each elastic support portion 112 gradually decreases from the first end 1121 toward the second end 1122.
每一導電鍵12呈塊狀且各界定有一安裝部121與一按壓部122。上述導電鍵12的安裝部121分別埋置於絕緣底盤11的連結部113,且每一導電鍵12的安裝部121表面與其相對應的連結部113呈無間隙地彼此結合,而該些按壓部122則分別顯露於絕緣底盤11之外。Each of the conductive keys 12 is in the form of a block and defines a mounting portion 121 and a pressing portion 122. The mounting portions 121 of the conductive keys 12 are respectively embedded in the connecting portion 113 of the insulating chassis 11, and the surface of the mounting portion 121 of each of the conductive keys 12 and the corresponding connecting portion 113 are combined with each other without a gap, and the pressing portions are combined with each other. 122 is exposed outside the insulating chassis 11, respectively.
由於每一導電鍵12及其搭配的連結部113與彈性支撐部112之設計原理皆相同。因此,為便於進一步介紹輔助鍵盤1的細部結構,以下將針對一個導電鍵12及其搭配的絕緣底盤11之相關構造(如:連接於上述導電鍵12的連結部113與彈性支撐部112)作一說明。The design principle of each of the conductive keys 12 and the matching connecting portion 113 and the elastic supporting portion 112 is the same. Therefore, in order to further introduce the detailed structure of the auxiliary keyboard 1, the following relates to the related structure of the conductive key 12 and its associated insulating chassis 11 (eg, the connecting portion 113 and the elastic supporting portion 112 connected to the conductive key 12). A note.
所述連結部113呈槽狀構造且具有一底壁1131及一環側壁1132,上述環側壁1132連接於所述彈性支撐部112的第二端1122與環側壁1132的周緣之間。換言之,片體111的穿1113孔一側受彈性支撐部112與連結部113的擋止而無法連通於外。The connecting portion 113 has a groove-like structure and has a bottom wall 1131 and a ring side wall 1132. The ring side wall 1132 is connected between the second end 1122 of the elastic supporting portion 112 and the circumference of the ring side wall 1132. In other words, the side of the 1111 hole of the sheet body 111 is blocked by the elastic support portion 112 and the connecting portion 113 and cannot communicate with the outside.
所述安裝部121為幾何上對應連結部113的構造,而安裝部121的截面面積小於按壓部122的截面面積。而安裝部121的表面與底壁1131內緣及環側壁1132內緣呈無間隙地彼此結合,並且與安裝部121相連的按壓部122平面,其與相對應的連結部113 位置(即環側壁1132頂緣)呈無間隙地彼此結合。其中,上述連結部113及其相結合的安裝部121位於彈性支撐部112所包圍的空間內。The mounting portion 121 has a structure that geometrically corresponds to the connecting portion 113 , and the cross-sectional area of the mounting portion 121 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the pressing portion 122 . The surface of the mounting portion 121 and the inner edge of the bottom wall 1131 and the inner edge of the ring side wall 1132 are joined to each other without a gap, and the pressing portion 122 connected to the mounting portion 121 is planar, and the corresponding connecting portion 113 The positions (i.e., the top edges of the ring side walls 1132) are joined to each other without a gap. The connecting portion 113 and the connecting portion 121 coupled thereto are located in a space surrounded by the elastic supporting portion 112.
補充說明一點,本實施例的導電鍵12是以安裝部121與按壓部122的截面大小不同之態樣作一舉例說明,但實際應用時,導電鍵12亦可設計為安裝部121與按壓部122具有相同的截面,即導電鍵12呈方塊狀。In addition, the conductive key 12 of the present embodiment is exemplified by the difference in the cross-sectional size of the mounting portion 121 and the pressing portion 122. However, in practical applications, the conductive key 12 can also be designed as the mounting portion 121 and the pressing portion. 122 has the same cross section, that is, the conductive keys 12 are in the shape of a square.
上述已介紹輔助鍵盤1的結構,以下將接著說明有關輔助鍵盤1的實際操作情形。具體來說,輔助鍵盤1的絕緣底盤11第二面1112是用以置放於平板電腦200的邊框202上,而每一連結部113與觸控螢幕201相隔有一距離。藉此,令該些導電鍵12的按壓部122適於被使用者的手指選擇性地按壓,以使該些彈性支撐部112變形而令該些連結部113的底壁1131能抵觸於觸控螢幕201。其中,當按壓導電鍵12時,藉由彈性支撐部112的變形,以使所述輔助鍵盤1具有按壓感與力回饋感。The structure of the keypad 1 has been described above, and the actual operation of the keypad 1 will be described below. Specifically, the second surface 1112 of the insulating chassis 11 of the auxiliary keyboard 1 is disposed on the frame 202 of the tablet 200, and each connecting portion 113 is spaced apart from the touch screen 201 by a distance. Therefore, the pressing portion 122 of the conductive keys 12 is adapted to be selectively pressed by the user's finger to deform the elastic supporting portions 112 so that the bottom wall 1131 of the connecting portions 113 can resist the touch. Screen 201. When the conductive key 12 is pressed, the elastic support portion 112 is deformed so that the auxiliary keyboard 1 has a feeling of pressing and a sense of force feedback.
須補充說明的是,每一連結部113的厚度須為0.05公厘至1公厘,尤指底壁1131的厚度為0.05公厘至1公厘,藉以在使導電鍵12更為穩固地與絕緣底盤11連接的同時,能避免因上述連結部113(或底壁1131)的厚度過大而使電流無法穿透。其中,上述連結部113(或底壁1131)的厚度較佳為0.1公厘至0.2公厘。It should be added that the thickness of each joint portion 113 must be 0.05 mm to 1 mm, especially the thickness of the bottom wall 1131 is 0.05 mm to 1 mm, thereby making the conductive bond 12 more stable. When the insulating chassis 11 is connected, it is possible to prevent the current from being penetrated due to the excessive thickness of the connecting portion 113 (or the bottom wall 1131). The thickness of the connecting portion 113 (or the bottom wall 1131) is preferably from 0.1 mm to 0.2 mm.
此外,本創作的輔助鍵盤1除上述實施態樣外,亦可以是其他實施態樣,舉例來說,輔助鍵盤1亦可以如同圖5或圖6所示。換言之,本創作的輔助鍵盤1並不侷限於上述說明。In addition, the auxiliary keyboard 1 of the present invention may be other embodiments in addition to the above embodiments. For example, the auxiliary keyboard 1 may also be as shown in FIG. 5 or FIG. 6. In other words, the auxiliary keyboard 1 of the present creation is not limited to the above description.
如圖1,所述輔助殼體2為可摺疊之片狀構造,且輔助殼體2具有一摺疊本體21、一U型的第一連接部22、與一第二連接部23。上述第一連接部22與第二連接部23分別連接於摺疊本體21的相反兩側緣,且第一連接部22固定(如:黏設)於輔助鍵盤1的絕緣底盤11第一面1111的U型外側部位,且第一連接部22位於 該些導電鍵12的外側;而上述第二連接部23則固定(如:扣合)於所述平板電腦200的背面。再者,上述第一連接部22與第二連接部23所使用的固定方式亦可以是磁吸、套設、或其他各種方式,在此不加以設限。As shown in FIG. 1, the auxiliary housing 2 is a foldable sheet-like structure, and the auxiliary housing 2 has a folding body 21, a U-shaped first connecting portion 22, and a second connecting portion 23. The first connecting portion 22 and the second connecting portion 23 are respectively connected to opposite side edges of the folding body 21, and the first connecting portion 22 is fixed (eg, glued) to the first surface 1111 of the insulating chassis 11 of the keypad 1 U-shaped outer portion, and the first connecting portion 22 is located The outer side of the conductive keys 12; and the second connecting portion 23 is fixed (eg, snapped) to the back of the tablet 200. Furthermore, the fixing manner used by the first connecting portion 22 and the second connecting portion 23 may be magnetic, sleeve, or other various forms, and is not limited herein.
其中,上述摺疊本體21自第一連接部22朝第二連接部23方向依序具有相連的一第一底板211、一第二底板212、及一支撐板213。進一步來說,上述第一連接部22、第一底板211、第二底板212、支撐板213、及第二連接部23之中彼此鄰近之兩構件能以相連接的部位為軸線而樞轉摺疊。因此,所述輔助輸入裝置100能經由摺疊輔助殼體2而選擇性地調整至一使用位置(如圖7)與一收合位置(如圖12)。The folding body 21 has a first bottom plate 211, a second bottom plate 212, and a supporting plate 213 connected in sequence from the first connecting portion 22 toward the second connecting portion 23. Further, the two members adjacent to each other among the first connecting portion 22, the first bottom plate 211, the second bottom plate 212, the support plate 213, and the second connecting portion 23 can be pivotally folded with the connected portion as an axis. . Therefore, the auxiliary input device 100 can be selectively adjusted to a use position (as shown in FIG. 7) and a collapsed position (FIG. 12) via the folding assist housing 2.
如圖7,當所述輔助輸入裝置100裝設於平板電腦200且位於使用位置時,摺疊本體21的第一底板211與第二底板212呈共平面且用以置放在一工作面300(如:桌面)上。此時,支撐板213與第二底板212夾有銳角,並使平板電腦200與工作面300亦夾有銳角,且輔助鍵盤1的絕緣底盤11第二面1112置放於平板電腦200上,令輔助鍵盤1與第一底板211夾有銳角,藉以使平板電腦200的底端能夾持於第一底板211與輔助鍵盤1之間。As shown in FIG. 7, when the auxiliary input device 100 is installed in the tablet 200 and is in the use position, the first bottom plate 211 and the second bottom plate 212 of the folded body 21 are coplanar and are placed on a working surface 300 ( Such as: desktop). At this time, the support plate 213 and the second bottom plate 212 have an acute angle, and the tablet 200 and the work surface 300 are also angularly opposed, and the second surface 1112 of the insulating chassis 11 of the auxiliary keyboard 1 is placed on the tablet 200. The auxiliary keyboard 1 has an acute angle with the first bottom plate 211, so that the bottom end of the tablet 200 can be clamped between the first bottom plate 211 and the auxiliary keyboard 1.
當所述輔助輸入裝置100自使用位置朝收合位置調整時,其步驟順序大致如下所述:請參閱圖7至圖12所示,先將輔助鍵盤1與觸控螢幕201分離;再以第一底板211與第二底板212相連的部位為軸線而樞轉第一底板211、輔助鍵盤1、及第一連接部22,使第一底板211疊置於第二底板212,且輔助鍵盤1的第一面1111與第一連接部22疊置於支撐板213;最後,以第二連接部23與支撐板213相連的部位為軸線而樞轉上述呈疊置狀的摺疊本體21、第一連接部22、及輔助鍵盤1,藉以覆蓋於觸控螢幕201上而使輔助輸入裝置100呈現收合位置。When the auxiliary input device 100 is adjusted from the use position to the folding position, the sequence of steps is as follows: Referring to FIG. 7 to FIG. 12, the auxiliary keyboard 1 is first separated from the touch screen 201; A portion of the bottom plate 211 connected to the second bottom plate 212 is an axis pivoting the first bottom plate 211, the auxiliary keyboard 1, and the first connecting portion 22, so that the first bottom plate 211 is stacked on the second bottom plate 212, and the auxiliary keyboard 1 is The first surface 1111 and the first connecting portion 22 are stacked on the supporting plate 213; finally, the folded connecting body 21 and the first connection are pivoted by the portion where the second connecting portion 23 is connected to the supporting plate 213 as an axis. The portion 22 and the auxiliary keyboard 1 are disposed on the touch screen 201 to cause the auxiliary input device 100 to assume the folded position.
因此,當輔助輸入裝置100裝設於平板電腦200且位於收合 位置時,所述第一連接部22、輔助鍵盤1、及第一底板211的一側為上述觸控螢幕201,而第一連接部22、輔助鍵盤1、及第一底板211的另一側為所述支撐板213與第二底板212。Therefore, when the auxiliary input device 100 is mounted on the tablet 200 and is located at the folding In the position, one side of the first connecting portion 22, the auxiliary keyboard 1, and the first bottom plate 211 is the touch screen 201, and the first connecting portion 22, the auxiliary keyboard 1, and the other side of the first bottom plate 211 The support plate 213 and the second bottom plate 212.
更詳細地說,所述輔助殼體2可進一步設有數個磁吸件24(如圖1),且上述磁吸件24分別設置(如:埋設)於第一底板211、第二底板212、支撐板213、及第一連接部22。藉此,當支撐板213與第二底板212疊置於第一連接部22及第一底板211時,設置於支撐板213的磁吸件24與設置於第一連接部22的磁吸件24相互吸附,而設置於第二底板212的磁吸件24與設置於第一底板211的磁吸件24相互吸附。再者,如圖1和圖11,由於平板電腦200內設置有一內建磁鐵203,故第一底板211亦可設置(如:埋設)有一對應於上述內建磁鐵203的磁吸件24a。藉此,當輔助輸入裝置100呈現收合位置時,設置於第一底板211的磁吸件24a能與平板電腦200的內建磁鐵203相互吸附。In more detail, the auxiliary housing 2 can be further provided with a plurality of magnetic members 24 (such as FIG. 1), and the magnetic members 24 are respectively disposed (eg, embedded) on the first bottom plate 211 and the second bottom plate 212. The support plate 213 and the first connecting portion 22 are provided. Thereby, when the support plate 213 and the second bottom plate 212 are stacked on the first connecting portion 22 and the first bottom plate 211, the magnetic member 24 disposed on the support plate 213 and the magnetic member 24 disposed on the first connecting portion 22 The magnetic members 24 disposed on the second bottom plate 212 and the magnetic members 24 disposed on the first bottom plate 211 are attracted to each other. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 11, since the built-in magnet 203 is disposed in the tablet 200, the first bottom plate 211 may also be provided (eg, embedded) with a magnetic member 24a corresponding to the built-in magnet 203. Thereby, when the auxiliary input device 100 assumes the folding position, the magnetic member 24a disposed on the first bottom plate 211 can be attracted to the built-in magnet 203 of the tablet computer 200.
須說明的是,上述相互吸附的磁吸件24為可以彼此作用的構造,亦即,相互吸附的磁吸件24可以是一為鐵片而另一為磁鐵,或者兩者皆為磁鐵,在此不加以限制。It should be noted that the mutually adsorbing magnetic members 24 are configured to be mutually movable, that is, the mutually attracting magnetic members 24 may be one iron piece and the other magnet, or both of them are magnets. This is not limited.
此外,所述輔助輸入裝置100亦可摺疊以位於一支撐位置(如圖13所示),此時,輔助鍵盤1及輔助殼體2的第一連接部22與摺疊本體21大致摺疊成三角柱狀之構造且置放於工作面上300上,而裝設於輔助殼體2的平板電腦200抵靠於(亦可說是,第二連接部23抵接於)上述三角柱狀之構造而與上述工作面300夾有銳角。換言之,所述輔助鍵盤1未設置於平板電腦200上,並且使用者能觀賞或操控平板電腦200的整個觸控螢幕201。In addition, the auxiliary input device 100 can also be folded to be located at a supporting position (as shown in FIG. 13). At this time, the first connecting portion 22 of the auxiliary keyboard 1 and the auxiliary casing 2 and the folding body 21 are substantially folded into a triangular column shape. The structure is placed on the work surface 300, and the tablet computer 200 mounted on the auxiliary casing 2 abuts (that is, the second connection portion 23 abuts) the triangular prism structure and the above The work surface 300 has an acute angle. In other words, the auxiliary keyboard 1 is not disposed on the tablet 200, and the user can view or manipulate the entire touch screen 201 of the tablet 200.
綜合來說,本創作實施例的輔助輸入裝置透過輔助輸入裝置來支撐平板電腦,亦即,藉由位在使用位置的輔助殼體來更輕鬆的經由輔助鍵盤操控平板電腦;或者透過位在收合位置的輔助殼體以保護平板電腦的觸控螢幕;又或者透過位在支撐位置的輔助 殼體以令使用者能觀賞或操控平板電腦的整個觸控螢幕。In summary, the auxiliary input device of the present embodiment supports the tablet through the auxiliary input device, that is, the tablet is more easily controlled by the auxiliary keyboard by using the auxiliary housing located at the use position; The auxiliary housing in position to protect the touch screen of the tablet; or through the auxiliary position The housing is designed to allow the user to view or manipulate the entire touch screen of the tablet.
