FIG. 1 is a schematic view illustrating the structure of the ultrasonic generating assembly where the matching layer is composed of a single-layer medium, FIG. 2 is a schematic view illustrating the structure of the matching layer with multiple tetrahedral micro-structured protrusions and the ultrasonic generator, FIG. 3 is a schematic view illustrating the structure of the ultrasonic generating assembly where the matching layer is composed of a multi-layer medium and FIG. 4 is a schematic view illustrating the structure of the ultrasonic generating assembly where the matching layer is wedge-shaped. By combining with FIG. 1 to FIG. 4, the selectively erasing device for a liquid crystal writing board according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises a power source (not shown) , a driving circuitry (not shown) and an ultrasonic generating assembly 10, where the power source and the ultrasonic generating assembly 10 are electrically connected to the driving circuitry. The ultrasonic generating assembly 10 includes a matching layer 11, an ultrasonic generator 12 and a backing layer 13 stacked in sequence, where the matching layer 11 is positioned on the side contacting with the liquid crystal writing board.
The ultrasonic generator 12 is one of a piezoelectric transducer, a magnetostrictive transducer and an electrostatic transducer or their combination, which is used for emitting ultrasonic waves. For example, the ultrasonic generator 12 can be a piezoelectric ceramic transducer (PZT) , which is composed of piezoelectric crystals with an axial and longitudinal expansion and generate ultrasonic wave of a certain frequency to realize electromechanical convention. The rough materials of the piezoelectric ceramic transducer can be lead zirconate-titanate or barium titanate. The ultrasonic generator 12 has an axial resonance direction (perpendicular to the plane of the ultrasonic generator 12) and a longitudinal resonance direction (parallel to the plane of the ultrasonic generator 12) , which can be switched by adjusting the voltage. In another word, the ultrasonic generator 12 can generate an axial vibration or a longitudinal vibration depending on the applied voltage. For the structures in FIG 1 and FIG 3, the longitudinal vibration has a better erasing effect, whereas for the structures in FIG 2 and FIG 4, the axial vibration has a better erasing effect. In the embodiments of the present invention, for the structures in FIG 1, 3 and 4, the ultrasonic waves directly go through the upper substrate of the liquid crystal writing board into the liquid crystal layer to change the alignment of liquid crystals, while for the structure in FIG 2, the ultrasonic generator 12 makes the upper substrate oscillation to change the alignment of liquid crystals. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and other shapes and structures of the ultrasonic generating assembly 10 may be set in accordance with the idea of the present invention.
In some embodiments, the ultrasonic generator 12 can be a single ultrasonic generator, or an array of multiply ultrasonic generators connected to each other in series or in parallel. The cross section of the ultrasonic generator has a shape of round, square, rectangle or their combinations, which can be adjusted according to the detailed applicant.
In some embodiments, the material of the matching layer 11 is one or more selected from the group of metals, metallic oxides, inorganic nonmetals and polymers. For example, the metal is tungsten or aluminum, the metallic oxide is tungsten oxide or aluminum oxide, the inorganic nonmetal is silicon dioxide, and the polymer is one or more selected from the group of epoxy resin, polyester resin, polyvinyl chloride, and their combination with fillers. The filler is an inert metal powder or a non-metal powder.
The matching layer 11 is composed of a single-layer or multi-layer medium, which is normally selected from compact, dense and small-damping insulator materials that have low absorbing and attenuating to the ultrasonic waves. As shown in FIG. 1, the matching layer 11 is composed of a single-layer medium whose acoustic impedance value gradually decreases along the direction away from the ultrasonic generator 12. In some embodiments, the lower surface of the matching layer 11 can be a flat surface (as shown in FIG. 1) or a rough surface with micro-structured protrusions. The shape of the micro-structured protrusions can be cylinder, quadrilateral, cone, tetrahedron or other polyhedrons. Preferably, the micro-structured protrusions have a tetrahedral structure as shown in FIG. 2. The matching layer 11 also can be composed of a multi-layer medium whose acoustic impedance value gradually decreases along the direction away from the ultrasonic generator 12. As shown in FIG. 3, the matching layer 11 is a double-layer medium including the first matching layer 111 and the second matching layer 112, where the first matching layer 111 is close to the ultrasonic generator 12. The acoustic impedance value of the first matching layer 111 is larger than that of the second matching layer 112. For example, the acoustic impedance value of the first matching layer 111 is 15~20 MRayl, while the acoustic impedance value of the second matching layer 112 is 3~5 MRayl. In some embodiments, the first matching layer 111 contains composite materials of polymers and solid powders. The polymer can be epoxy resin, polyester resin or polyvinyl chloride, and the solid powder contains lead zirconate-titanate, tungsten oxide, iron oxide, titanium dioxide or silicon dioxide. The second matching layer 112 contains elastic and self-adhesive materials, such as gelatinous substances or elastic polymer. The second matching layer 112 will cause the selectively erasing device contact tightly to the liquid crystal writing board, which reduces the air between the selectively erasing device and the upper substrate of the liquid crystal writing board, reduces the attenuation of ultrasonic waves and improves the propagating efficiency of ultrasonic waves. Meanwhile, it will prevent appearing of writing traces caused by the stress of the second matching layer 112 during the erasing process. The material of second matching layer 112 includes but not limited to low acoustic impedance organic polymers such as silicone gels or silicone resins. The first matching layer 111 and the second matching layer 112 are bonded through adhesive agents bonding, chemical bonding after surface modification or after doping modification, physical adsorption after surface tension modification and so on.
In some embodiments, the thickness of the matching layer 11 is uniform, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2. Also, the thickness of the matching layer 11 is not even, as shown in FIG. 4, where the matching layer 11 is wedge-shaped. In another word, the cross section of the matching layer has a shape of triangle. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the cross section of the matching layer 11 can be trapezoidal, circular arc, wavy or other irregular polygons.
FIG. 5 is a schematic view illustrating the structure of the ultrasonic generating assembly with an additional gel layer or elastic polymer layer. As shown in FIG. 5, the selectively erasing device comprises a gel layer or an elastic polymer layer 14 located on the side of the matching layer 11 away from the ultrasonic generator 12. When in the selectively erasing process, the gel layer or elastic polymer layer is tightly attached to the upper substrate of the liquid crystal writing board, in order to push out the air between the selectively erasing device and the upper substrate and make the entry of ultrasonic waves into the liquid crystal layer more efficient, which reduces the attenuation of ultrasonic waves, improves the propagating efficiency of ultrasonic waves and prevents appearing of writing traces caused by the stress of the matching layer 11 during the erasing process.
In some embodiments, the backing layer 13 contains solid fillers made of metallic oxides or non-metallic oxides and one or more polymers selected from epoxy resins, polyester resins, and polyvinyl chloride. The backing layer is used for absorbing the reflected ultrasonic waves at the interface between the matching layer and the ultrasonic generator, which reduces the effect of surface reflection, suppresses interference and improves the utilization of the ultrasonic waves entering into the liquid crystal writing board.
In embodiments of the present invention, the matching layer 11 and the ultrasonic generator 12 or the ultrasonic generator 12 and the backing layer 13 are bonded through adhesive agents bonding, chemical bonding after surface modification or after doping modification, physical adsorption after surface tension modification and so on.
FIG. 6 is a schematic view illustrating the whole structure of the writing-erasing pen according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 6, the writing-erasing pen includes a pen body 300, a writing end 200 and an erasing end 100, where the erasing end 100 includes the selectively erasing device as mentioned above. In some embodiments, the writing end 200 and the erasing end 100 are located at the two ends of the pen body 300. The writing end 200 has a writing tip to directly contact with a liquid crystal writing board during a writing process. The power source and the driving circuitry of the selectively erasing device can be set inside the pen body 300 or the connection part between the pen body 300 and the writing end 200 or the erasing end 100. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the power source and the driving circuitry may be installed in other parts of the writing-erasing pen or connected to the writing-erasing pen through wireless method. As shown in FIG. 6, the ultrasonic generating assembly 10 is located in the erasing end 100, where the backing layer 13, the ultrasonic generator 12 and the matching layer 11 is disposed in sequence from the pen body 300 to the erasing end 100. Moreover, a gel layer or elastic polymer layer (not shown) is included outside of the matching layer 11.
In some embodiments, the erasing end 100 is detachably connected to the pen body 300, such as through a removable connection by thread, snap or magnetic materials. In the above embodiment, the erasing end 100 is located on one side of the pen body 300. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the erasing end 100 may be located on other part of the pen body 300, such as the lateral side of the pen body. In some embodiments, the writing-erasing pen comprises a charging device connecting the power source. The charging device may be set inside the pen body 300, outside the pen body 300 or between the pen body 300 and the erasing end 100 or the writing end 200. The power source charged by the charging device can provide enough power to the ultrasonic generating assembly 10 for easily carrying and using of the entire writing-erasing pen. In addition, the writing-erasing pen can include a power switch to control the power source. For example, the power switch is an elastic switch which is turned on through a long-time push. When the elastic switch is turned on, the ultrasonic generating assembly 10 continues working; while the elastic switch is turned off, the ultrasonic generating assembly 10 stop working. The ultrasonic generating assembly 10 is in the off state when the writing-erasing pen is put still or the elastic switch is free from external forces.
FIG. 7 is a schematic view illustrating the writing process of the writing-erasing pen on a liquid crystal writing board and FIG. 8 is a schematic view illustrating the texture structure of liquid crystals in the liquid crystal writing board in FIG. 7. As shown in FIG. 7 and FIG. 8, the liquid crystal writing board used in the present invention includes bistable polymer stabilized cholesteric liquid crystal. When the liquid crystal writing board is pushed by the pen tip of the writing-erasing pen, the liquid crystals around the pushing position will switch from a scattering state to a reflective state, therefore the incident light of a certain wavelength is reflected back to eyes and the liquid crystal writing board will show the writing words with a certain color.
FIG. 9 is a schematic view illustrating the selectively erasing process of the writing-erasing pen on a liquid crystal writing board and FIG. 10 is a schematic view illustrating the texture structure of liquid crystals in the liquid crystal writing board in FIG. 9. As shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, during the selectively erasing process, the erasing end of the writing-erasing pen is pointed to the erasing party and the ultrasonic generating assembly 10 emits ultrasonic waves by turn on the power switch. In detail, when applied high frequency AC, the ultrasonic generator 12 will generate ultrasonic waves of same frequency and a certain vibration direction. After going through the matching layer 11, the ultrasonic waves pass the upper substrate of the liquid crystal writing board and enter into the liquid crystal layer. Affected by the ultrasonic waves, the liquid crystals in the liquid crystal layer switch from the reflective state to the scattering state. Therefore the reflection and the writing words are disappeared, but other parts that do not contact to the erasing end will stay unaffected.
The external field used in the present invention is ultrasonic waves, where the orientation of the liquid crystals is adjusted by ultrasonic waves and the selectively erasing is realized by directly changing from the reflective state to the scattering state. In theory, the acoustic field does not transfer heat or light in the orientation of liquid crystals, which eliminates the phenomenon of accelerated aging. Moreover, this selectively erasing method will not increase the manufacturing cost, and it is harmless to the human body. The selectively erasing device and the writing-erasing pen for a liquid crystal writing board apply an ultrasonic technology to fulfill the selectively erasing, resulting in energy-saving and environmental protection, as well as safe and convenient to use.
