Description

Pointing device capable of multi-dimensional scrolling manipulation

technical field

The invention relates to a pointer device capable of multi-dimensional scrolling manipulation, in particular to a multi-dimensional scrolling manipulation pointer device with simplified mechanism, easy assembly and convenient use.

Background technique

Computer systems have become one of the most important hardware foundations of a modern information society. In order to enable the general public to control the computer system conveniently, most modern computer systems are equipped with a pointer device (like a mouse), allowing users to intuitively manipulate the graphical interface displayed on the monitor through the pointer device. And the information industry is also constantly improving the design of the pointer device, so that the pointer device has more functions, more convenient to operate, and more in line with the needs of users.

Please refer to Figure 1. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a conventional pointer device 10 . The pointer device 10 is a mouse, on which are provided with buttons 12A, 12B and a wheel 14, which can rotate along a rotation axis Ap (that is, rotate in the direction of the arrow 16). When the user moves the mouse 10, the mouse 10 will sense its own movement (such as mechanically or optically by rolling a ball), and convert it into a corresponding movement sensing signal, which is sent back to the computer in the form of an electronic signal system (not shown in Figure 1) to control the operation of the computer system. The mouse 10 also senses that each button 12A, 12B is pressed, and sends back a corresponding button sensing signal to the computer system to provide additional control. In addition, when displaying documents such as text data, data, web pages or graphics, etc. on the monitor of the computer system, users often need to alternately view different parts of these documents, and the wheel 14 is used to provide "vertical scrolling" control Function. When the user rotates the wheel 14 , the mouse 10 can sense the degree of rotation of the wheel 14 and generate a corresponding rotation sensing signal. The rotation sensing signal can be transmitted to the computer system, so that the computer system can display different parts of the file, which is equivalent to scrolling the file vertically.

Although the wheel 14 in the existing mouse 10 can provide the control function of vertical scrolling, it can only provide scrolling control in a single dimension. When using a computer system to view documents such as wide webpages, graphs, or engineering drawings, users not only need to view different parts of the document from top to bottom, but also often need to view parts that differ from left to right of the document. In other words, users not only need the function of vertical scrolling, but also the function of "horizontal scrolling" to view different parts of the document conveniently. However, the rotating wheel of the existing mouse 10 can only provide "vertical scrolling" in a single dimension, so that the user cannot intuitively use a single rotating wheel to perform "horizontal scrolling" simultaneously, which is inconvenient to use. Although there is also a U.S. patent application (U.S. application number US2003/0025673A1) that proposes a technology for multi-dimensional scrolling control with a single wheel, but its structure is complex, and the time and cost of production, assembly, and manufacturing cannot be reduced, and The way that its runner rotates also does not meet user's sense of touch and needs.

Contents of the invention

Therefore, the main purpose of the present invention is to provide a pointer device capable of multi-dimensional scrolling control, which can provide multi-dimensional control with a single wheel, and its structure is simple, easy to assemble, produce, and manufacture, and can be used on the wheel When turning, it provides a step-difference microvibration touch, which can assist the user to control the degree of rotation and positioning of the wheel, and meet the actual needs of the user.

In the pointer device of the present invention, the wheel is mounted on a base along a front-rear direction to form a wheel module, and the wheel module is arranged on the housing of the pointer device in a manner that can swing left and right. Rotation of the wheel itself provides vertical scrolling control, while left and right swinging of the wheel module provides horizontal scrolling control. In this way, the user can intuitively perform multi-dimensional scrolling control through a single wheel module.

In terms of the structure of the present invention, the wheel module of the present invention is provided with light gates on the side of the wheel, and a light emitter and a light receiver are arranged on the left and right sides of the pedestal to sense the degree of rotation of the wheel. On the circumference of the other side of the shutter on the runner, there is also a concave-convex step difference touch edge; correspondingly, a step difference unit is also provided on the pedestal of the runner module, one end of which is fixed on the pedestal, and the other end is elastic To maintain contact with the touch edge of the step difference. When the user turns the wheel, the concave and convex parts on the step difference touch edge will also alternately expand and contract the step difference unit, causing a tactile sensation of step difference micro-vibration, which is convenient for the user to control and position the wheel.

When the runner module is installed in the housing, one of the front and rear ends of the pedestal is directly installed on the bottom surface of the pointer device housing in a fixed position; with this end as the fulcrum, the other end of the runner module can move up and down, The user can also trigger the manipulation of "click" by moving the wheel module up and down.

After the present invention discloses the novel designs of the above-mentioned various configurations, the pointer device of the present invention can not only provide multi-dimensional scrolling control, but its simple structure can reduce the cost and time of assembly, production, and manufacturing, and also allow users to conveniently The control and positioning of the runners are more in line with the needs of users.

Detailed ways

Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 first. FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of the appearance of an embodiment of the pointer device 20 of the present invention; FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of components in the pointer device 20 . The pointer device 20 can be a mouse, with the shells 30A, 30B as the shell, on which the buttons 22A, 22B can be arranged, and the wheel 24 can be used as an interface for scrolling control. In the present invention, the rotating wheel 24 is installed in a rotating wheel module 40 ( FIG. 3 ), and the rotating wheel 24 itself can not only rotate around a rotating shaft Ar in the direction of the arrow 26, but also center on a swinging axis Aw. Swing left and right in the direction of arrow 28. Use the steering wheel 24 to rotate along the direction of the arrow 26 to perform vertical scrolling control; make the rotary wheel 24 swing left and right along the direction of the arrow 28 to perform horizontal scrolling control.

As shown in Figure 3, in addition to the runner 24, a seat 50, a circuit board 42A, a light transmitter 46B, a light receiver 46A and a section of difference unit 36 are also provided in the runner module 40 of the present invention (Figure 3 The housing 30A has been omitted). The rotating wheel 24 can be composed of rotating wheel assemblies 32A and 32B, and is mounted on the base 50 in a manner to be rotatable around the rotating shaft Ar. The pedestal 50 itself is provided with three protruding trigger ends 48A to 48C, and its bottom is also provided with a swing axis Aw extending along the front and rear directions, and its front and rear ends are endpoints Aw1 and Aw2. The circuit board 42A is fixed on the bottom of the pedestal 50 and integrated with the pedestal 50 . The circuit board 42A is provided with a light emitter 46B and a light receiver 46A, and the positions of the two in the wheel module 40 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the wheel 24 to form a rotation sensing module for sensing the rotation of the wheel 24. degree of rotation. Wherein, the light emitter 46B can emit light, and the light receiver 46A can sense whether there is light incident on the light receiver 46A, and generate a corresponding sensing signal as a rotation sensing signal, which is transmitted through the circuit board 42A in the form of an electronic signal. The flexible bus 52 on the transmission goes out. In addition, the step difference unit 36 includes step difference unit components 38A, 38B and an elastic body 38C (such as a coil spring). The elastic body 38C is arranged between the step difference unit components 38A and 38B. The step difference unit component 38B forms the fixed end of the step difference unit 36 and is fixed on the pedestal 50. The step difference unit component 38A forms the touch end of the step difference unit 36. The elastic body 38C The elastic support of the step difference unit assembly 38A can elastically move closer to or away from the fixed end.

The wheel module 40 is movably mounted on the bottom surface 62 of the casing 30A. Correspondingly, a circuit board 42B is also fixed on the bottom surface 62 , on which are disposed button sensors 58A and 58B, swing sensors 56A and 56B, a click sensor 54 and a motion sensing module 60 . The movement sensing module 60 can be an optical or rolling ball sensing module. When the user moves the pointer device 20, the movement sensing module 60 can sense the movement of the pointer device 20 and generate a corresponding movement sensation. test signal. The button sensors 58A, 58B are respectively used to sense when the buttons 22A, 22B (shown in FIG. 1 ) are pressed, so as to generate corresponding button sensing signals. The swing sensors 56A and 56B form a swing sensing module for sensing the left and right swing of the wheel module 40 and generating corresponding swing sensing signals. The click sensor 54 is used to sense the movement of the wheel module 40 up and down, and generate a corresponding click sensing signal. The electronic sensing signals generated by the above-mentioned sensors/sensing modules will be transmitted back to the computer system (not shown in the figure) by the circuit on the circuit board 42B; similarly, the bus 52 of the wheel module 40 will also be electrically connected to the circuit The board 42B, the circuit board 42B uniformly returns the rotation sensing signal generated by the rotation sensing module to the computer system.

For details about the assembly configuration of each component in the pointer device 20 of the present invention, please further refer to FIGS. 4 to 9 (and refer to FIGS. 2 and 3 together). FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 show the assembled configuration of the components of the wheel module 40 in external views from different directions. As mentioned above, the rotating wheel 24 is rotatable around the rotating axis Ar in the direction of the arrow 26 . 6 and 7 show the detailed structure of the runner 24 in external views from different directions. Corresponding to FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 , FIG. 8 and FIG. 9 remove part of the pedestal 50 , the runner 24 and the bus 52 to show the step difference unit 36 , the rotation sensing module and the runner 24 in the runner module 40 of the present invention. relationship between configurations.

As shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 , a plurality of radial slits 66 are provided on the plane on one side of the runner 24 ; these slits 66 penetrate the planes on the left and right sides of the runner 24 to form penetration areas. Conversely, the positions on the plane where there are no slits 66 form impermeable regions. The transmissive regions and the non-transmissive regions are staggered around the rotation axis Ar to form a shutter 64 . It can be seen in FIG. 7 that the inner edge of the circumference on the other side of the runner 24 forms a differential contact edge 68 with an uneven surface. It can be seen from Fig. 8 and Fig. 9 that the shutter 64 is located between the light emitter 46B and the light receiver 46A. When the user turns the wheel 24, the shutter 64 will also be rotated jointly, so that The penetrating area and the non-penetrating area alternately pass between the light emitter 46B and the light receiver 46A. When the penetrating area (that is, the slit 66) passes, the light emitted by the light emitter 46B can pass through the slit and be received by the light receiver 46A; otherwise, when the non-penetrating area passes, the light emitter will be blocked. The light emitted by 46B prevents it from entering the light receiver 46A. In other words, according to the alternate state of light passing through and not passing through, the degree of rotation of the wheel 24 can be known, and then converted into a rotation sensing signal capable of vertical scrolling control.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 9 , in the step difference unit 36 , the step difference unit component 38A serving as the actuating end will maintain contact with the step difference actuating edge 68 due to the action of the elastic body (see FIG. 3 ). When the user turns the rotating wheel 24, the step difference triggering edge 68 will also be rotated so that the uneven part passes through the step difference unit assembly 38A alternately, so that the step difference unit assembly 38A moves up and down alternately, thereby generating a micro-vibration tactile sensation of the step difference. Regarding this situation, please refer further to FIG. 10 . FIG. 10 is a side view showing that the step unit assembly 38A moves up and down when the rotating wheel 24 rotates in different positions. Under state Sa, a concave end 69A of the step difference actuating edge 68 passes through the step difference unit assembly 38A, and because of the elastic force provided by the elastic body in the step difference unit, the step difference unit assembly 38A will rise in the direction of the arrow 72A. When the rotating wheel 24 rotates along the arrow 26 and turns to the state Sb, a convex end 69B of the step difference trigger edge 68 passes through the step difference unit assembly 38A, and the step difference unit assembly 38A will be pushed downward by the convex end 69B in the direction of the arrow 72B . When the rotating wheel 24 continues to rotate, the step unit assembly 38A will alternately be in the states Sa and Sb, and reciprocate up and down along the arrows 72A and 72B, so that the user can feel the micro-vibration of the step.

It can be seen from the description of Fig. 4 to Fig. 10a and Fig. 10b that under the configuration of the wheel module 40 of the present invention, not only the rotation of the wheel 24 can be sensed as one of the control signals, but also the operation of the level difference unit 36 can be used , so that when the user rotates the rotating wheel 24, he or she can have a micro-shock feeling of step difference. This kind of micro-vibration tactile sensation can assist the user to control the rotating wheel 24; on the one hand, the frequency of the micro-vibration tactile sensation allows the user to know the rotation speed of the rotary wheel 24 through tactile feedback, thereby allowing the user to control the rotation of the rotary wheel 24 more intuitively. to match the speed at which the document scrolls vertically on the computer system monitor. On the other hand, when the user searches for a document by scrolling vertically and finds a specific part they want to view, the user would like the wheel to be fixed in position, so that the user can view the specific part in detail without scrolling the document . At this time, the rotary wheel 24 of the present invention can use the operation of the step unit 36 to assist in positioning the rotary wheel 24, preventing the rotary wheel from being too sensitive to the user's manipulation and unable to stably display a specific part of the document.

As for the case where the wheel module 40 of the present invention is movably mounted on the casing 30A, please refer to FIGS. 11 to 13 further. FIG. 11 is a schematic diagram of the wheel module 40 installed in the housing 30A; FIG. 12 is a schematic diagram of the assembled configuration of the wheel module 40 and the housing 30A; FIG. 13 shows the wheel module 40 and the housing 30A in a top view. Schematic diagram of the configuration. For clarity of the drawings, without hindering the technical disclosure of the present invention, parts of the housing 30A and the circuit board 42B have been omitted in FIGS. 11 to 13 . As shown in FIG. 11 , two protruding plates 70A, 70B may be provided on the bottom surface 62 of the housing 30A. The protruding plate 70A is provided with a hole 74A, and the protruding plate 70B is provided with a narrow and long sliding groove 74B. The shape of the hole 74A corresponds to the end point Aw1 on the wheel module 40 , so that the end point Aw1 can fit in the hole 72A in a fixed position, but the end point Aw1 can still rotate in the hole 72A. The other end point Aw2 on the runner module 40 can fit into the chute 74B; the end point Aw2 can not only rotate in the chute 74B, but also slide up and down along the chute 74B in the direction of the arrow 76 . In other words, when the wheel module 40 is installed to the housing 30A with the end points Aw1 and Aw2, the wheel module 40 can not only swing left and right with the swing axis Aw extending between the end points Aw1 and Aw2 as the axis (that is, along the arrow 26, FIG. 12), the end point Aw2 can also slide up and down along the direction of the arrow 76 with the end point Aw1 as the fulcrum.

As shown in FIG. 12 and FIG. 13 , when the wheel module 40 is assembled in the casing 30A, the trigger ends 48A, 48B and 48C on the wheel module correspond to the positions of the swing sensors 56A, 56B and the click sensor 54 respectively. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a sensor with an elastic knob is used as the swing sensor and the click sensor. As shown in Figure 12, there is a convex button 79 on the click sensor 54; The signal can also provide elastic force (such as a spring provided inside it) to bounce the convex button 78B and return to the unpressed state. Similarly, the swing sensors 56A, 56B also have protrusions 78 that can be elastically restored to a position. Using these sensors that can elastically restore the positions of the knobs, the present invention can elastically support the movable wheel module 40 with a simplified structure. Regarding this situation, please refer to Fig. 14a and Fig. 14b first. They are two schematic rear views along the section line 14-14 in FIG. 13 to show the situation when the wheel module 40 of the present invention swings left and right.

In the state Ta in FIG. 14a, the trigger ends 48A, 48B on the left and right sides of the wheel module 40 can be supported by the knobs 78 on the swing detectors 56A, 56B respectively, and kept in the middle position without swinging. When the user swings the wheel module 40 left and right along the arrow 28, the trigger ends 48A, 48B on the wheel module 40 will press down the knob of the side swing detector along the direction of the swing. In state Tb in Fig. 14b, it is assumed that the user tilts the wheel module 40 to the right of the drawing through the wheel 24, so that the trigger end 48B presses the knob 78 of the swing detector 56B; The detector 56B will generate a corresponding swing sensing signal, representing that the wheel module 40 has been tilted to the right. When the user stops tilting and swinging the wheel module 40 , the knob of the swing detector 56B will elastically return to the position in the state Ta, driving the entire wheel module 40 to return to the non-tilted, non-swinging middle position.

Please continue to refer to Figure 15a, Figure 15b. It is a schematic side view along the section line 15 - 15 in FIG. 13 , to show the situation that the wheel module 40 swings up and down with the end point Aw1 as the fulcrum. As shown in state Qa in FIG. 15 a , the trigger end 48C of the wheel module 40 can be supported by the knob 79 on the click sensor 54 to maintain a horizontal position. And as shown in state Qb (FIG. 15b), if the user presses down the runner 24, the entire runner module 40 will use the endpoint Aw1 as a fulcrum to make the end of the endpoint Aw2 move downward along the direction of the arrow 76, and then The trigger end 48C presses the button of the click detector 54 to generate a corresponding click sensing signal, which means that the wheel 24 (and even the wheel module 40 ) has been pressed. When the user stops pressing down on the rotating wheel 24 , the knob 79 on the click sensor 54 will elastically return to the position in the state Qa, driving the rotating wheel module 40 to return to the horizontal state in the state Qa.

As can be seen from the above discussion, the wheel module 40 of the present invention can swing left and right (Figure 14a, Figure 14b) and move up and down (Figure 15a, Figure 15b); the former movement will be sensed by the swing sensors 56A, 56B, and can be used as The basis for manipulating horizontal scrolling. The latter action will be sensed by the click detector 54 and can be used as the basis for the manipulation of the click. In addition to the vertical scrolling control of the rotating wheel 24 itself ( FIGS. 4 to 10 b ), the pointer device 20 of the present invention can realize multi-dimensional scrolling control in line with the user's intuition with a single wheel.

Compared with the existing technology, the present invention can realize multi-dimensional scrolling control with a single wheel/wheel module with a simplified structure, and retain the micro-vibration tactile feeling of the stage difference when the wheel rotates. Since the rotation sensing module of the present invention is realized by the light emitters and light receivers arranged on both sides of the wheel, the other side of the wheel can also be equipped with a step difference unit, which produces a slight vibration of the step difference and increases the convenience of the user. . However, the front and rear ends of the wheel module of the present invention are directly assembled on the bottom surface of the casing, and the movable wheel module is elastically supported by the elastically returnable convex buttons in the click detector and the swing detector, so that The pointer device of the present invention can be realized with a simplified structure, reducing the time and cost of production, assembly and manufacture. In addition to scrolling control, the oscillating wheel module of the present invention can also be used for other types of multi-dimensional manipulation, such as manipulating front, rear, left, and right directions in a virtual environment (such as a computer game). In addition, although the above embodiments implement the technology of the present invention in a mouse pointer device, the technical spirit of the present invention can also be implemented in other types of pointer devices, such as trackballs and the like.

The above descriptions are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, and all equivalent changes and modifications made according to the claims of the present invention shall fall within the scope of the patent of the present invention.
