BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Field of the Invention


The present invention relates to a human-computer interaction device, and more particularly, to a portable haptic feedback capacitive stylus for interaction on a mobile terminal, which achieves haptic interaction between humans and the mobile terminal.


Description of Related Art


Haptic sense is a collective term for force sense and tactile sense. Tactile sense is a feeling related to a touch, caused by a mechanical stimulus such as pressure and vibration. Force sense is a body feeling, caused by internal forces and motion of muscles and hones. When a person touches an object, he/she can obtain a haptic feeling of pressure sense, flexibility, and texture of the object. Although the main way by which people get information is visual sense and auditory sense, haptic sense plays an irreplaceable role: firstly, haptic sense is an important channel to obtain information. When a person interacts with the environment, he/she can achieve a better understanding of the shape, material, texture and other properties of an object by touching. In particular, where visual sense or auditory sense is limited, current information may be characterized by using haptic interaction. Secondly, haptic sense is an effective means to achieve precise operation and control. For example, when telerobots interact with the environment, an operator can accurately accomplish his/her tasks only by a prompt of the position of the sensed object by means of haptic sense.


As a personal computing and communication device which is rapidly growing, a mobile terminal recently has entered into a stage of intelligent development and the function of its human-computer interaction interface currently mainly focuses on visual and auditory interaction, with haptic function being limited. Haptic reproduction and interaction technology is an emerging human-computer interaction technology. The technology enables an operator to touch, perceive and manipulate a virtual object, to achieve an active exploration on a virtual environment, which expands conventional human-computer interaction modes and further improves the quality of human-computer interaction. Using the haptic reproduction and interaction technology in a mobile terminal can expand the function and application scope of the mobile terminal, expand user populations (for example, people with visual and auditory disabilities), and enhance feelings of presence, and thus has broad application prospects and market value.


Currently, domestic and foreign haptic stylus interaction devices only can give an operator with a simple tactile prompt by vibration and cannot give continuous force feedbacks, so that a three-dimensional shape of an object in a screen is difficult to percept by touching. The present device is combined with the mobile terminal technology to achieve an effective portable haptic interaction capacitive stylus device, which not only can achieve vibration touch feedback prompts at a controlled frequency, but also can generate continuous force feedbacks, thereby filling a current hole in the field of haptic human-computer interaction on a mobile terminal.

The sleeve ring 2 is sleeved over the front housing, and the sleeve ring 2 is axially movable along the front housing. A clearance fit is provided between the sleeve ring 2 and the connecting cylinder 8.

The photoelectric code disc 12 is connected to the motor 4, the measurement and control module is separately connected to the photoelectric code disc 12 and the motor 4, and the power supply 15 supplies power to the measurement and control module and the motor 4.

The vibration touch module 7 is used for generating vibration touch feedbacks of different frequencies and different durations.


Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the sleeve ring 2 is a ring-shaped structure, and specifically comprises an outer ring 201, an inner ring 202, mounting holes 203, and supporting blocks 204. The inner ring 202 is located in the outer ring 201, the outer ring 201 and the inner ring 202 are fixedly connected to each other through the supporting blocks 204, and one of the mounting holes 203 is provided on each of the supporting blocks 204. One end of the spring 9 is sleeved in the mounting holes 203. The first housing 3 is located in a gap between the outer ring 201 and the inner ring 202, the connecting cylinder 8 is located in a cavity of the inner ring 202, and a gap is provided between the connecting cylinder 8 and the inner ring 202. In a normal pen-holding mode, a forefinger and a thumb of a person hold the outer ring 201.


Further, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, preferably, the first housing 3 is cylinder-shaped. The first housing 3 comprises a front housing and a rear housing, open slots 301 are provided on the front housing, and a limiting groove 302 is provided in an inner wall of the front housing. The limiting groove 302 is used for limiting the slider 10, such that the slider 10 only can linearly move along the limiting groove 302 when rotating over the screw rod 11. A clearance fit is provided between the open slots 301 and the supporting blocks 204 of the sleeve ring 2, such that an end of the first housing 3 can pass through the gap between the inner ring 202 and the outer ring 201 of the sleeve ring 2 to be threadedly connected to the tip 1. A length of the open slots 301 is greater than a length of the supporting blocks 204, such that the sleeve ring 2 is movable along the open slots 301.

As shown FIG. 6, in use of the haptic feedback capacitive stylus of the present invention, a human hand holds the haptic feedback capacitive stylus in a normal pen-holding mode, where a forefinger and a thumb hold the sleeve ring 2, an end of the forefinger is contacted with the first housing 3, as shown by a point Q in FIG. 6. According to the present invention, the tip 1, the connecting cylinder 8, the bearing 17, the sleeve ring 2, the spring 9, the slider 10, the screw rod 11, and the first housing 3 all are made of a conductive material. Thus, for the normal pen-holding mode, charges in the human hand can be smoothly conducted to the tip 1 of the haptic feedback capacitive stylus. The wireless communication circuitry 14 of the present invention is installed inside the second housing 5. Because the second housing 5 and the end-portion housing 16 both are made of a nonmetallic material, it can be ensured that a signal sent from the wireless module is not shielded.


Referring to FIG. 7, a deformation view of a spring of a haptic feedback mechanism in the haptic feedback capacitive stylus of the present invention is shown. The motor 4 rotates to drive the screw rod 11 to rotate, and thus the slider 10 is moved upward and downward along the screw rod 11, thereby driving the spring 9 to deform. The sleeve ring 2 can move upward and downward in the open slots 301 of the first housing 3, also resulting in deformation of the spring 9. Thus, the total deformation amount of the spring 9 is made up of two portions, a deformation amount of the spring 9 caused by the movement of the sleeve ring 2 and a deformation amount of the spring 9 caused by the movement of the slider 10. However, the deformation amount of the spring 9 caused by the movement of the sleeve ring 2 is much smaller than the deformation amount of the spring 9 caused by the movement of the slider 10, so the deformation amount of the spring 9 caused by the movement of the sleeve ring 2 is negligible.


Referring to FIG. 8, a force analysis diagram of haptic feedback according to the present invention is shown. A human hand holds the sleeve ring 2. Firstly, a force analysis is performed for the sleeve ring 2. A point P is an action point, and a force being acted upon the human hand is an elastic force Felastic resulting from deformation of the spring, and simultaneously, the sleeve ring 2 is subjected to a pressure Fpressure from the human hand. The Felastic and the Fpressure are an interactive pair, and Felastic=Fpressure, having opposite directions. Secondly, a force analysis is performed for the haptic feedback capacitive stylus as a whole. The haptic feedback capacitive stylus is totally marked as O (which means that the overall capacitive stylus is regarded as a mass point for analysis of an external force, without considering the acting force of the spring inside the capacitive stylus), the capacitive stylus is subjected to the pressure Fpressure from the human hand and a force F′ in a direction of the capacitive stylus, applied by a screen of the mobile terminal onto the capacitive stylus, where Fpressure=F′. Thus, it can be concluded that: F′=Fpressure=Felastic=k·ΔX, wherein k is an elastic coefficient of the spring 9, and ΔX is a deformation amount of the spring 9. When changes in ΔX occur, the human hand holding the sleeving ring 2 can feel changed haptic feedbacks.


As shown in FIG. 6, FIG. 7, FIG. 8, and FIG. 9, the haptic feedback capacitive stylus is held by the human hand to move on a surface of a capacitive screen of the mobile terminal. The operation process of the haptic feedback capacitive stylus is illustrated with movement from a point A to a point B in FIG. 6 as an example: in an initial state, when contacting with the screen in a normal pen-holding mode, F′>0, and it can be known from F′=k·ΔX that, an initial deformation amount of the spring 9 is ΔX=Δx>0, namely, the spring 9 is in an elongated condition in the initial state. When the haptic feedback capacitive stylus slides from the point A to the point B, the mobile terminal can obtain coordinate information of the point A (xA, yA) and coordinate information of the point B (xB, yB) according to changes in capacitance of the screen. According to the coordinate information of the two points, upper computer software can calculate height information hA of an image at the A coordinate (xA, yA) and height information hB of an image at the B coordinate (xB, yB), where Δh=hB−HA. As shown in FIG. 9, the deformation amount of the spring 9 caused by the movement of the sleeve ring 2 is much smaller than the deformation amount of the spring 9 caused by the movement of the slider 10, so the deformation amount of the spring 9 caused by the movement of the sleeve ring 2 is negligible, namely, Δx2′≈0, Δx2′≈0. If Δh>0, it is indicated that the height of an image at the point B is higher than the height of an image at the point A, the motor 4 drives the slider 10 to move upward through the screw rod 11, such that the deformation amount of the spring 9 is increased by Δx1. Thus, a damping force felt by the human hand Felastic1=k(Δx+Δx1)>Felastic, the human hand feels the increase in damping force in the sliding process and has a feeling of convexity from the point A to the point B. On the contrary, if Δh<0, it is indicated that the height of an image at the point B is lower than the height of an image at the point A, the motor 4 drives the slider 10 to move downward through the screw rod 11, such that the deformation amount of the spring 9 is decreased by Δx2. Thus, a damping force felt by the human hand Felastic2=k(Δx−Δx2)<Felastic, the damping force is decreased, the human hand feels the decrease in height from the point A to the point B and has a feeling of concavity. Hence, by controlling the motion of the motor 4, the deformation amount ΔX of the spring 9 is changed, such that the human hand feels changed force feedbacks.


The measurement and control module of the haptic feedback capacitive stylus of the present invention comprises the wireless communication circuitry 14, the control circuitry 6 and the power supply management circuitry 13. When the tip 1 slides on the screen, position information of the tip 1 on the screen is obtained by the mobile terminal through the touch screen, and extraction and calculation of height information of an image at this position are carried out by the mobile terminal. The wireless communication module carried by the mobile terminal itself transmits control information of the vibration frequency and time of the vibration touch module 7 and information of the rotating speed of the motor 4 to the wireless communication circuitry 14 in the measurement and control module of the present invention. After receiving the data from the mobile terminal, the wireless communication circuitry 14 transmits it to the control circuitry 6. The control circuitry 6 is used for analyzing the control information received from the wireless communication circuitry 14 to control the rotating speed of the motor 4 and the vibration frequency and time of the vibration touch module 7, and transmitting the number of rotations of the motor detected by the photoelectric code disc 12 to the mobile terminal via the wireless communication circuitry 14. The power supply management circuitry 13 is capable of detecting electric quantity of the power supply 15, and protecting the power supply 15 from being overcharged in charging and preventing over-discharging of the power supply 15 in use. The electric quantity of the power supply 15 is sent to the mobile terminal via the wireless communication circuitry 14, such that the mobile terminal can display the electric quantity of the capacitive stylus in real time.


In the capacitive stylus of the present invention, the sleeve ring 2, the spring 9, the slider 10, the screw rod 11, and the first housing 3 constitute a force feedback module. The force feedback module is used for generating continuous force feedbacks. The measurement and control module is used for communicating with the wireless module of the mobile terminal and controlling the force feedback module and the vibration touch module 7 according to instructions transferred from the mobile terminal, and managing the power supply 15. The power supply 15 is used for supplying power to the capacitive stylus. The capacitive stylus of the present invention can provide elastic force feedbacks and vibration touch feedbacks. By reading the information from the photoelectric code disc 12 and the rotating speed of the motor 4, a displacement of the slider 10 is calculated. Changes in displacement of the slider 10 lead to deformation of the spring 9, and thus changes in continuous force feedbacks are generated at the sleeve ring 2 hold by fingers.
