图 1与图 2分别为本发明的第一实施例的操控装置的一立体分解示意图 以及部分模块的立体分解示意图。 参照图 1, 操控装置 100包括靠垫 101、 饰板 102、 外壳 110、 套体 120、 承载体 130、 侦测模块 140、 定位机构 150、 以及一底座 160。
外壳 110固定于底座 160上, 于外壳 110与底座 160之间可以形成一操 控空间以容置其它的模块, 例如电路模块、 操控模块 (图上未绘) 或是连接 接口 163, 待后再续。 外壳 110的表面设有连通至操控空间的镂空部 111、 镂空部 112、 凹部 113, 其中饰板 102设置于镂空部 111中, 靠垫 101设置 于凹部 113上。 饰板 102可以以触控板 (图上未绘) 或滚轮取代以提供使用 者操控之用, 但本发明不限于此。 其次, 镂空部 112的左右两侧分别凹设有 容置槽 114, 其中容置槽 114可容置承载体 130, 镂空部 112则暴露出套体 120。
套体 120具有一中空部分以套设于承载体 130上并暴露于镂空部 112上, 使用者可以操控套体 120于承载体 130上进行滚动以及滑移。 可以理解的, 承载体 130提供一较套体 120长的路径以允许套体 120可于承载体 130上进 行相对于承载体 130的移动。 套体 120可以为一硬质体或者一可挠性体, 当 套体 120为硬质体时, 其具有一固定形状以套设承载体 130 ; 当套体 120为 可挠性体时, 其形状可依据承载体 130而调整。 于第一实施例中, 套体 120 为一杆状硬质体, 其可以为网状编织布、 不织布、 塑料、 橡胶或皮革等材料 制作。 此外, 套体 120的外表面上可进一步利用激光雕刻、 移印或蚀刻着色 等加工方式来使图形或文字清楚显示于套体 120的外表面上。 又, 套体 120 亦可具有对接座 121, 设置于套体 120的两端以对接承载体 130,对接座 121 亦可具有助滑的功能以协助套体 120于承载体 130上滑移。
承载体 130包括一一件式固持部或一组件式固持部。 于第一实施例中, 一件式固持部 134为一圆柱、 椭圆柱或其它便于套体 120套设、 滚动以及滑 移移动的形状, 举例但不限于地, 以聚缩醛 (Polyoxymethylene , POM ) , 聚四氯乙烯(Polytetyafluoroethylene , PTFE)、超高分子量聚乙烯(Ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene , UHMWPE ) 或其它自润性材料制作。 承载 体 130界定一容置空间 131于承载体 130中, 以提供设置一侦测模块 140且 利用承载座 133承载侦测模块 140。 其次, 承载体 130的一件式固持部 134 具有一镂空区域 132且侦测模块 140暴露于镂空区域 132上,即镂空区域 132 对应侦测模块 140。当套体 120套设于承载体 130上以及进一步于承载体 130 左右滑移时, 套体 120同时覆盖了承载体 130的镂空区域 132。 于中空杆体 的一件式固持部 134表面制作或形成镂空区域 132。 可以选择的, 亦可于镂 空区域 132上覆盖一透明盖 (图上未绘), 或是以包括透光材料制作的透光 区域来制作或形成一件式固持部 134的一部分或是全部。
因此, 承载体 130包括镂空区域 132或是透光区域时, 侦测模块 140可 以采用一或多个光学式的非接触式传感器, 侦测套体 120的滚动或是滑移或 是该两者, 产生一滚动控制信号或是一滑移控制信号。 另一种选择是, 于承 载体 130未具有镂空区域 132或是透光区域时, 可以采用非光学式的非接触 式传感器, 其中一或多个非接触式传感器可分布于承载体 130所界定的容置 空间 131中。 于此情形下, 套体 120可承载或利用可与该非光学式的非接触 式传感器产生交互作用的感应结构或是材料制作, 则侦测模块 140仍可侦测 套体 120的滚动或是滑移或是该两者, 产生一滚动控制信号或是一滑移控制 信号。
其次, 一电路模块 170固定于承载体 130的承载座 133中并可承载侦测 模块 140, 其中电路模块 170可更包括一微处理器 171。 侦测模块 140产生 的滚动控制信号或是滑移控制信号给微处理器 171处理, 微处理器 171可处 理滚动控制信号或是滑移控制信号后传送至底座 160上的连接接口 163以输 出控制外界电子装置的光标动作 (图上未示)。

又, 于底座 160上对应套接部 154的位置固设一弹性元件 161以抵靠套 接部 154, 使得承载体 130呈一悬浮状态悬浮于底座 160上。 又, 连动部件 153更包括一按压件 155, 该按压部 155固定于定位部件 151的杆体上且位 于连动部件 153的一左侧或一右侧, 即介于两延伸结合部 152之间。 于第一 实施例中, 按压件 155设置于定位部件 151与承载体 130之间, 并具有一阶 梯板状外形。 其次, 一点击信号传感器 162设置于底座 160上并对应按压件 155。
其次, 点击信号传感器 162为一种接触式传感器。 使用者可以对承载体 130施以一向下的外力, 使得承载体 130相对定位部件 151进行一第一垂直 位移并压迫弹性元件 161。 因应承载体 130进行第一垂直位移的同时, 按压 件 155亦相对定位部件 151进行一第二垂直位移并接触点击信号传感器 162。 按压件 155接触触发点击信号传感器 162以产生一点击控制信号。 一电路模 块 164设置于底座 160上, 点击信号传感器 162产生的点击控制信号可传给 电路模块 164处理后再传送至连接接口 163。可以理解的, 于第一实施例中, 第一垂直位移的大小可以不同于第二垂直位移的大小, 例如第二垂直位移小 于第一垂直位移, 但本发明并不限于此。
可以选择的, 点击信号传感器 162可以为一非接触式传感器, 此种情形 下, 按压件 155因应承载体 130进行第一垂直位移同步进行该第二垂直位移 并干涉非接触式点击信号传感器 162 以产生一点击控制信号传给电路模块 164处理后再传送至连接接口 163。

其次, 操控装置 300的大部分元件可被容置于操控空间 315中, 并且固 设于底座 360上。 于第三实施例中, 电路模块 364包括一固设于底座 360上 的电路板 366, 且包括设置于电路板 366上的多个控制开关 367以及操控元 件 365, 部分的控制开关 367分别对应上方的操控元件 365。 操控元件 365 可为按键、 滚轮、 3D滚轮、 滚球或其它可供手部推压进行操作的元件, 其仅 具供使用者按压、 推滚后触发电路模块 364的控制开关 367来操作鼠标的功 能即可, 但非因此即局限本发明的专利范围, 如利用其它修饰及等效结构变 化, 均应同理包含于本发明的专利范围内。
电路模块 364更包括设置于电路板 366上的一侧的一连接接口 363, 外 壳 310的侧边可设有镂空槽 (图上未绘) 以提供连接接口 363穿设之用。 要 说明的是, 第三实施例中的电路模块 364亦可为若干各自独立的电路板, 而 非限于一电路板。 以下说明的其它电路模块亦是可与上述电路模块整合或各 自独立。 在各自独立的电路板设计时, 可藉由导线 (或传输线) 以及连接接 口适当地信号连接彼此或外界电子装置, 抑或是各自独立传送与接收信号。
承载体 330被收容于操控空间 315中,其位于电路模块 364的前侧位置, 并且对应外壳 310的镂空槽 312的位置。 承载体 330包括一条状承载座 333 以及分别固定于承载座 333的两端的固持部 334。 定位机构 350包括设置于 承载体 330与电路模块 364之间的一定位部件 351, 定位部件 351的两端各 自与一推移座 357以及连动部件 353穿套, 其中, 定位部件 351穿套过推移 座 357的一轴孔 358、 弹性元件 (图上未示) 后穿抵至连动部件 353的轴孔 359。 定位部件 351被定位机构 350的固定件 356直接固定于底座 360上, 或是被其它的固定件 (图上未绘) 固定于底座 360上, 但本发明未限定定位 部件的固定方式, 实施例仅用以说明。
推移座 357可于定位部件 351上滑动, 当推移座 357受到一沿定位部件 351的长轴方向的外力时, 推移座 357可接近连动部件 353, 并且压迫定位 部件 351上的弹性元件。 再者, 利用受压的弹性元件的弹力势能可使推移座 357回复到未受力的位置。 又, 推移座 357内可设置磁石(图上未绘), 其邻 近设有一磁性传感器 369于电路板 366上, 例如包括霍尔芯片 (Hall lC ) 的 传感器或是磁阻传感器 (MR sensor 推移座 357接近或远离连动部件 353 的时候, 磁石施予磁性传感器 369的磁场亦产生变化, 如此可使得磁性传感 器 369侦测磁场的变化。 当磁场变化或磁场大小达到一预定值时, 磁性传感 器 369产生一复位控制信号给电路模块 364处理, 并进一步由连接接口 363 输出以控制外界电子装置的光标复位。
再者, 连动部件 353尚包括一按压件 355以及一套接部 354, 其中按压 件 355以及套接部 354被设置于相对承载体 330的位置。 连动部件 353, 包 括其按压件 355以及套接部 354, 可以为塑料件, 套接部 354与承载体 330 的固持部 334对接, 并抵靠连动部件 353, 按压件 355的下方则设置一控制 开关 361,其中控制开关 361抵靠按压件 355使得承载体 330呈一悬浮状态。 连动部件 353可相对于定位部件 351转动, 当承载体 330被施以一向下的外 力可进行一第一垂直位移时, 连动部件 353被带动而转动, 使得按压件 355 行进一第二垂直位移并压迫控制开关 361产生一触发信号, 此情况下第一垂 直位移大致相等于第二垂直位移。 当向下的外力消失后, 按压件 355回复到 仅接触控制开关 361的位置。
又, 具有中空孔的套体 320可穿套在承载体 330的承载座 333上, 套体 320于长轴上的长度小于承载座 333的长度, 因此套体 320可于承载座 333 上滑移或滚动。 承载体 330的承载座 333的断面可为扁平状、 弧形、 圆形、 椭圆形或其它可方便套体 320滚动、 滑移的形状设计。 承载座 333亦可为聚 缩酸 ( Polyoxymethylene , POM ) . 聚四氟乙烯 ( Polytetyafluoroethylene , PTFE亦可称为铁弗龙)、 超高分子量聚乙烯 (Ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene , UHMWPE ) 或其它自润性材料制作而成。 可以选择的, 承载 体 330的承载座 333的材料亦可以为其它,例如钢材或是仅有极少量分模线, 甚或是无分模线的塑料材料, 只要便于套体 320于其上滚动或滑移即可。 承 载体 330的承载座 333包括被套体 320覆盖的一透光区域或是一镂空区域 332 , 透光区域或是镂空区域 332对应电路模块 370的侦测模块 340。承载座 333的材料可以是不透光的,如此则制作一镂空区域 332于不透光的本体上, 或是于镂空区域 332再覆盖另一透光盖。 承载座 333也可以透光部分与不透 光部分组合, 如此则透光部分提供透光区域对应侦测模块 340。 承载座 333 也可以完全由透光材料制作, 如此则整个本体皆可提供透光区域对应侦测模 块 340。
承载体 330界定一容置空间 331于承载座 333中或下方。 其次, 电路模 块 370设置于容置空间 331中, 其至少包括彼此信号连接的侦测模块 340以 及微处理器 371。 侦测模块 340因应套体 320的滚动或滑移而产生滚动控制 信号或是滑移控制信号, 并进一步将滚动控制信号或是滑移控制信号传送给 微处理器 371处理。
套体 320可利用适当的材料形成以具有所需的弹性与挠性, 例如网状编 织布、 不织布、 塑料、 橡胶或皮革等等。 其次, 套体 320的外侧面可形成若 干摩擦结构 322, 以提供使用者滚动或滑移套体 320时之用。 举例来说, 多 条摩擦系数高于套体 320的凸起结构沿着套体 320的长轴方向或倾斜一角度 地设置于外侧面上, 且多条摩擦结构大致等分外侧面。 本发明的套体上的摩 擦结构, 也可以是非直线的, 包括但不限于地, 多个直线段或是弧线段组成 的锯齿条或是波浪条或是螺旋线条, 或是, 多个直线段彼此间不是以呈 180 度夹角的方式组成的条状结构等等。 可以选择的, 除了前述线状, 摩擦结构 的形状亦可包括其它的规则形状, 例如排列成条状的圆形、 椭圆形、 方形、 正多边形等, 或是不规则形状, 例如排列成条状的多边形等。 多条摩擦结构 大致平均地分布于套体的外侧面上, 例如以等分或大致相等的分布密度分布 于外侧面上。
套体 320的内侧面本身亦可形成有多个凹、 凸点、 压紋或网点, 以及涂 布有银粉、 银漆, 其仅只需提供侦测模块 340可清楚辨识、 侦测出套体 320 的滚动、 滑移, 同时可提高整体灵敏度及分辨率, 且确保光标精确定位、 操 控性俱佳即可, 因此举凡可达成前述效果的形式皆应受本发明所涵盖, 此种 简易修饰及其等效的结构变化, 均应同理包含于本发明专利范围内。 侦测模 块 340可侦测使用者推动套体 320的前后滚动、 左右滑移的动作, 其侦测方 式是以发光元件 (图上未绘) 投射光线至套体 320的内侧面上。 当套体 320 被滚动或滑移时, 可使光线产生不同干涉现象, 同时透过侦测模块 340持续 对套体 320的颜色、 凹、 凸点或平滑度的运动成像, 再由微处理器 371进行 X轴、 Y轴移动距离与轨迹的计算。 得到上述计算结果后, 利用传输线 (图 上未绘) 传送至电路模块 364后, 再透过连接接口 363连接外部电脑, 以同 步操控电脑屏幕上的光标 X轴、 Y轴方向位移。 然而有关侦测模块 340如何 产生投射光线、折射成像以及 X轴、 Y轴移动距离与轨迹计算等为现有技术, 且该细部构成并非本发明的发明要点,所以在不影响本发明专利保护范围下, 兹不再作赘述。 其次, 传输计算结果的方式可为有线连接或无线传输方式, 则连接接口 363可为通用序列总线(USB )、PS2或其它形式的有线连接接口, 亦或可为红外线、 蓝牙技术(Blue tooth )、 无线射频 (RF )或其它形式的无 线连接接口。 图 6为本发明的第四实施例的承载体与套体的侧面示意图。 此第四实施 例中, 承载体 430的容置空间中分布多个侦测模块 440, 套体 420的内侧面 上则分布多个感应结构 423, 感应结构 423可以包覆于内侧面以不妨碍套体 420于承载体 430上滑移以及滚动。 当套体 420于承载体 430上滑移以及滚 动时, 侦测模块 440与感应结构 423的交互作用力亦相对改变, 仍可达到侦 测模块 440产生平移控制信号或是滚动控制信号的目的。 要说明的是, 第四 实施例的其它部分可利用前述其它实施例的部件或模块, 于此不赘述。
又, 上述套体可利用适当的材料形成以具有所需的弹性与挠性, 参照图 7至图 10, 为本发明的第一至第四实施例的套体的外观示意图。 套体 3可利 用适当的材料形成以具有所需的弹性与挠性, 例如网状编织布、 不织布、 塑 料、 橡胶或皮革等等。 其次, 套体 3的外侧面 32可形成若干摩擦结构, 以提 供使用者滚动或滑移套体 3时之用。 参照图 7, 多条摩擦结构 321, 例如摩 擦系数高于套体 3的凸起结构, 其沿着套体 3的长轴方向倾斜一角度地设置 于外侧面 32上, 且多条摩擦结构 321大致等分外侧面 32。 参照图 8, 多条 摩擦结构 322大致平行套体 3的长轴方向,亦大致等分外侧面 32。参照图 9, 每一条摩擦结构 323由规则的波浪构成。 可以选择的, 参照图 10, 每一条摩 擦结构 324由规则的锯齿构成。
是以, 本发明的套体上的摩擦结构, 可以是多条直线彼此平行, 并且平 行或不平行套体的长轴方向。 可以选择的, 摩擦结构也可以是非直线者, 包 括但不限于地, 多个直线段或是弧线段组成的锯齿条或是波浪条或是螺旋线 条, 或是, 多个直线段彼此间不是以呈 180度夹角的方式组成的条状结构等 等。可以选择的, 除了前述线状, 摩擦结构的形状亦可包括其它的规则形状, 例如排列成条状的圆形、 椭圆形、 方形、 正多边形等, 或是不规则形状, 例 如排列成条状的多边形等。
由此可见, 本发明的套体, 可利用摩擦结构产生使用者操控套体时所需 的摩擦力, 其中摩擦结构可以是规则或不规则形状、 连续或不连续的凸起结 构。 又, 摩擦结构亦可以是直接于套体的外侧面上, 利用移除部分套体的结 构所形成的沟槽(凹槽), 亦可获得增加操控时所需的摩擦力。其次, 多条摩 擦结构大致平均地分布于套体的外侧面上, 例如以等分或大致相等的分布密 度分布于外侧面上。 图 11为本发明的第五实施例的套体的剖面示意图。考虑摩擦结构的使用 频繁, 亦可于摩擦结构 321外再形成一强化层 33 以强化摩擦结构, 其中强 化层 33与摩擦结构 321的摩擦系数相等或相近。 图 12为本发明的第六实施 例的套体的剖面示意图。 相较于图 11, 图 12中的套体, 于内侧面 31形成一 强化层 34, 此强化层 34可优化内侧面 31, 以使得座体滚动或滑移的信号能 够灵敏且正确地反映给侦测模块侦测与接收。
当然, 内侧面 31本身亦可形成有多个凹、 凸点、 压紋或网点, 以及涂布 有银粉、 银漆, 其仅只需提供侦测模块可清楚辨识、 侦测出套体 3的滚动、 滑移, 同时可提高整体灵敏度及分辨率, 且光标精确定位、操控性俱佳即可, 因此举凡可达成前述效果的形式皆应受本发明所涵盖, 此种简易修饰及其等 效的结构变化, 均应同理包含于本发明专利范围内。
图 13为本发明的第五实施例的操控装置的一立体分解示意图。 图 14为 本发明的第五实施例的操控装置的部分模块的立体分解示意图。 请同时参照 图 13与图 14, 操控装置 500的外壳 510、 套体 520、 承载体 530以及底座 560与第一实施例类似, 于此不赘述。 此第五实施例的定位机构 550包括定 位部件 551以及连动部件 553, 定位部件 551包括垂直于承载体 530且分别 设置于承载体 530的两端的两定位杆体 555, 连动部件 553包括固定于各定 位杆体 555两端的延伸结合部 552, 其中延伸结合部 552固定于承载体 530 的相应端。 其次, 定位杆体 555则可设置于底座 560上的定位件 556上。
根据上述, 本发明操控装置可设置于电脑、 笔记型电脑、 移动电话或其 它外部电子产品上, 并在与外部电脑上的接口连接端口进行插接后, 当使用 者将手腕抵持靠置于靠垫上时, 即可由手指来推动、 操控套体于承载体的第 一面上进行前后滚动、 左右滑移的动作, 电路模块的侦测模块便可藉由承载 体的第一面或第二面或容置空间来持续对套体成像, 由微处理器进行 X轴、 Y轴移动距离与轨迹的计算, 并操控电脑屏幕上的光标同步位移, 藉此可确 保使用者操控时维持同一姿势, 以符合人体工学的设计。 又, 因承载体可辅 助套体于操控空间活动位移, 同时减少套体与承载体表面间滑移产生的摩擦 力, 进而可提升套体使用时的稳定性与顺畅度。
其次, 上述实施例的操控装置, 可更配置一操控模块, 此操控模块可以 是一周边操作功能装置,如图 15所示,为本发明的第六实施例的外观示意图。 外壳 610与底座 660嵌合以形成一操控空间从而容置操控装置 600的全部元 件,至少包括具有多个机械式按键的操控模块 685、 3D滚轮 687、控制垫 688 与操控装置 620等。 操控装置 620负责鼠标的功能, 与可输入字符等的操控 模块 685配合, 操控模块 685信号连接操控装置 620, 并且操控模块 685与 操控装置 620的信号皆由连接接口 663输出至外界电子装置。 要说明的是, 本实施例中的操控装置 620与操控模块 685整合于外壳 610与底座 660之间, 一体成型的外壳 610至少包括一镂空区域 6101以暴露出操控模块 685、一镂 空区域 6102以暴露出操控装置 620、 以及一区域 6103以提供设置靠垫或其 它之用。
图 16 为本发明的第六实施例的部分分解仰视示意图。 一体成型的底座 660至少包括区域 6601、 6602、 6603, 分别对应镂空区域 6101、 镂空区域 6102以及区域 6103。 电路模块 664包括多个电路板 6641、 6642以及 6643, 其中电路板 6641用以作为操控模块 685的信号传递与连接, 电路板 6642用 以作为操控装置 620的信号传递与连接,电路板 6643则为关于连接接口 663 的信号连接与传递。 可以理解的, 本发明并不限于上述实施方式, 多个电路 板亦可整合为单一电路板以作为操控模块 685、操控装置 620、连接接口 663 之间的信号传递与连接。 根据上述, 第六实施例的操控装置 620与操控模块 685整合于一体成型的外壳 610与底座 660中, 亦方便使用者使用。
图 17 为本发明的第七实施例的外观示意图, 其中馈入式扫描装置 885 设置于操控装置 800的底座下, 使用时直接将纸张馈入, 此时扫描模块设置 于操控装置 800中, 如此增加操控装置的功能。
除了操控模块与操控装置整合于一壳体上的配置方式外, 可为周边操作 功能装置的操控模块亦可于脱离操控装置的状态下使用。参照图 18为本发明 的第八实施例的外观示意图。 操控装置 700与手持式扫描装置 785彼此信号 连接,例如以有线或无线的方式。未使用操控装置 700时,可藉由固持件 735 将手持式扫描装置 785固定于操控装置 700的一侧。 当使用者欲使用手持式 扫描装置 785时, 手持式扫描装置 785可脱离操控装置 700使用。 举例但不 限于此的, 诸如馈入式扫描装置、 投影模块或是相机模块或上述的部分或全 部的组合, 皆可利用第八实施例的方式, 来增加彼此的功能。
图 19为本发明的第九实施例应用环境的立体示意图。举例来说,本发明 的操控装置 600可应用于一般固定式查询机 6, 例如设置于超商中提供站立 的顾客 63查询或是操作虚拟店铺之用。 固定式查询机 6—般仅包括显示屏 61 以及按键装置 62。 本发明的操控装置 600因体积小, 可以设置于固定式 查询机 6上有限的平台上, 让顾客 63可如操作鼠标一般。 因此, 本发明的操 控装置 600可便利顾客 63操作固定式查询机 6。
图 20为本发明的第十实施例应用环境的立体示意图。本发明的操控装置 400可应用于一般移动式工作台 7, 例如医疗单位的移动工作台。 考虑移动 的方便性, 一般移动式工作台 7仅提供有限的平台空间放置电子装置 71, 如 站立的工作者 73要于移动式工作台 7上使用一般的鼠标, 则因平台面积不 够, 容易造成操作鼠标的不易。 因此, 本发明的操控装置 400仅需占用一固 定有限的空间, 工作者 73即可如操作鼠标般使用本发明的操控装置 400, 又 无须移动操控装置 400的位置, 增加操作的方便性。 根据上述, 本发明的操 控装置适合应用于提供有限空间的平台环境, 本发明的操控装置尤其是便利 站立的使用者操控, 增加使用者操控电子装置的弹性。
在本发明以部分实施例的方式讨论之时, 本技术领域的技术人员应可了 解本发明并非如此受限。 此处的实施例是由实例进行解释, 而在本发明的范 围之内还有许多的修改、 变化或是其它实施例, 可增加、 移除、 及 /或重组元 件。 此外, 亦可增加、 移除、 或是重新排序处理步骤。 许多不同的设计及方 式亦为可行。
