Embodiments of the invention

The specific implementation of the touch control device of the handheld computerized device of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

The touch control device of the handheld computerized device includes a main control unit, a touch unit, a communication unit, and a power unit. The touch unit and the communication unit are connected to the main control unit. The power unit is connected to the main control unit, the touch unit, and the communication unit. The communication unit is in communication connection with the handheld computerized device, the touch unit includes several touch areas, and the power unit is connected to the rechargeable battery.

The structure of the touch device is in the form of a flat patch, and the outside is a casing. The casing includes an upper cover and a lower cover. The material of the upper cover and the lower cover is glass, plastic, silicone, rubber, ceramic, mica, quartz, stone, One or more insulating materials in asbestos, carbon fiber, glass fiber, insulating paint, insulating glue, insulating paperboard, insulating fiber, wood chips, bamboo chips, or a combination of the above several insulating materials. The lower cover may also be a combination of one or more alloy non-insulating materials of iron, chromium, manganese, aluminum, copper, lead, tin, gold, and silver. A circuit board and a rechargeable battery are installed between the upper cover and the lower cover. The main control unit, touch control unit, communication unit, and power supply unit are all set on the circuit board. The housing is connected to the handheld computerized device, and the connection method is magnet adsorption , Adhesive type, card slot type, screw fixed type or vacuum adsorption type.

Referring to FIG. 1, each unit module on the circuit board is composed of a chip set, specifically a main control chip, a touch control chip, a wireless communication chip, a power management and a wireless charging chip or a wired charging chip are provided on the circuit board; the circuit board is located Above the rechargeable battery, it is electrically connected to the rechargeable battery; power management is electrically connected to the main control chip, touch control chip, wireless communication chip, and wireless charging chip; the main control chip, touch control chip, wireless communication chip, and wireless charging chip use communication connections. An LED indicator light is also installed on the electric board road, which is located above the circuit board and is electrically connected to the circuit board and the rechargeable battery, respectively.

The device is located on the backplane of the handheld computerized device or directly embedded in the hardware of the handheld computerized device. The main control chip, touch chip, wireless communication chip, power management and wireless charging chip provided on the circuit board can be integrated with the handheld computerized device. The hardware runs synchronously on the device. The wireless communication method between the touch control device and the handheld computerized device may be Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or NFC; the main control chip, the touch chip, the wireless communication chip, and the wireless charging chip transmit data by SPI and I2C communication methods.

The touch sensing area of the touch unit may be located on the front or back of the circuit board. The circuit board is PCB hard board or FPC soft board.

The touch chip sends the received touch sensing data to the main control chip, and the main control chip sends the touch sensing data to the handheld computerized device through the wireless communication chip. The touchpad of the device can be divided into different touch areas according to different applications. Each touch area can be set to a different function. For example, in a photo application, the entire touch area can be used as a whole or multiple areas. In other applications, such as FPS games, the entire touch area can be divided into 4 small touch areas (left 1, left 2, right 1, right 2). Each area can be defined as a function key or an operation skill in the game. For example, the left 1 is the on/off aiming key, and the right 1 can be defined as the fire key in the game.

Referring to Figures 2, 3, and 4, the definition function corresponding to each touch area may be a one-to-one, one-to-many, or many-to-one mode. The one-to-one definition function is the most common; the one-to-many function can release multiple skills in the game application at the same time and improve the operation efficiency; the many-to-one function increases the operation frequency and reduces finger fatigue.

The rechargeable battery can use wireless charging or wired charging, and use a wireless charging chip to charge the internal power management of the device to achieve wireless charging; it can also be replaced by an external charging device to charge wireless charging; the rechargeable battery can be extended as a charging treasure to power itself It can also charge smartphone devices.

The following is a more intuitive description of the present invention by taking a photo APP example.

Referring to FIG. 5, the patch full touch area is divided into upper and lower touch areas. The function of the upper touch area is defined as two-finger zoom, dimming and other operations, and the function of the lower touch area is defined as the shutter button. When the user takes a picture through a device such as a mobile phone, the user can select the dimming point, double-finger zoom, and lever dimming through the touch patch with a single finger tap on the upper touch area, and click the touch area to realize the shutter pressing action. The use of touch patch operation can reduce the operation on the mobile phone screen, reduce the side effects such as shaking caused by the operation, and improve the user experience.

Referring to FIG. 6, the touch can also be divided into finer parts. For example, in the figure, the dimming operation is set on both sides of the upper touch area, and both sides of the area realize the dimming function, which is a many-to-one Corresponding mode, easy to adjust left or right hand separately. The lower touch area is also divided into two parts. In addition to the shutter, the return operation function is added, which is more convenient to use.

The division of the above functional areas and the allocation of functions can be achieved by parameter setting in the program in the prior art.

The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the principles of the present invention, several improvements and retouches can be made. These improvements and retouches should also be regarded as This is the protection scope of the present invention.
