The optical sensing device is arranged on the wearable device and used for providing a high-precision biological characteristic sensing function. However, the conventional optical sensing device is not perfect in dust-proof effect, and the optical sensing component of the optical sensing device is easily polluted by surface skin, sweat, grease, dust of external environment or suspended particle bucket of a wearer, so that noise is formed in the optical sensing information, and the accuracy of the optical sensing information is greatly damaged. Therefore, how to effectively improve the influence of environmental dust on the photo-sensing information without increasing the manufacturing cost excessively or reducing the assembly yield is the key development topic of the related industries.

Detailed Description
Referring to fig. 1 to 3, fig. 1 to 3 are respectively schematic structural diagrams of an optical detection device 10 according to different embodiments of the present invention. The optical detection device 10 can be applied to wearable devices such as a smart watch or a smart bracelet, and is used for detecting biological characteristic information such as a skin surface layer or a subcutaneous blood vessel of a wearer. The optical detection device 10 includes a housing 12, a light detection element 14, and a light transmissive element 16, and optionally includes a light emitting element 18 and a light blocking element 20. The housing 12 has a light-incident unit 22 and a receiving structure 24, and optionally has a light-emitting unit 26 according to the design of the light-emitting device 18. The housing 12 is primarily comprised of a base 28 and a cover 30. A circuit board (not shown) may be disposed on the base 28, and the light detecting element 14 and the light emitting element 18 are electrically connected to the circuit board through wires. The cover 30 stands on the base 28 and surrounds the light detecting element 14 and the light emitting element 18 for protection. The receiving structure 24 is the space formed by the base 28 and the cover 30. The light incident unit 22 and the light emitting unit 26 are light incident holes and light emitting holes on the cover 30.
The light detecting element 14 is disposed in the receiving structure 20 and corresponds to the light incident unit 22, and the light emitting element 18 is disposed in the receiving structure 20 and corresponds to the light emitting unit 26. The light-shielding member 20 is disposed between the light-detecting element 14 and the light-emitting element 18 for preventing the light signal output by the light-emitting element 18 from being directly absorbed by the light-detecting element 14 without passing through the housing 12. The light-transmitting member 16 is disposed in the accommodating structure 20 and above the light-detecting element 14. The light-transmitting member 16 is partially filled in the accommodating structure 20 and is blocked between the light-entering unit 22 and the light-detecting element 14, so as to prevent external dust from falling onto the light-detecting element 14 through the light-entering unit 22 or dust in the housing 12. Therefore, the present invention can effectively protect the optical detection element 14 from environmental pollution, so that the optical detection device 10 has stable and good detection quality.
Generally, the thickness of the light-transmitting member 16 is between about 50 and 1000 micrometers (μm), depending on the size of the housing 12 and the location of the light-transmitting member 16. The thicker light-transmitting member 16 can directly interfere with the light-entering unit 22, so as to prevent dust from entering the housing 12 through the light-entering unit 22; the thin light-transmitting member 16 covers the top of the photo-detecting element 14, so that dust will not fall onto the lens of the photo-detecting element 14 even if entering the housing 12, and the detection quality of the photo-detecting element 14 will not be affected. In addition, the light-transmitting member 16 can be used with infrared or ultraviolet light filtering function, such as forming a filter layer on the surface of the light-transmitting member 16, or the light-transmitting member 16 itself is made of filtering material. The wavelength range filtered by the light-transmitting member 16 is not limited to the infrared light and the ultraviolet light described above, depending on the design requirements.
The optical detection device 10 shown in fig. 1 has a light-transmitting member 16 disposed on a light detection element 14 in a direct contact manner. In another embodiment of fig. 2, the light-transmitting member 16 is suspended above the light-detecting element 14 by a connecting member 32. For example, the connecting member 32 can be a short rod, both ends of which are connected to the light-transmitting member 16 and the cover 30 of the housing 12; alternatively, the connecting member 32 may be a wall structure that is disposed around the hole shape of the light-entering unit 22 to fill the gap between the light-entering unit 22 and the light-detecting element 14. However, the actual structure of the connecting member 32 is not limited thereto.
The light-transmitting member 16 is a generally sheet-type optical component having two opposing flat surfaces 161 that are substantially parallel. In the embodiment shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2, the plane normal vector V1 of the flat surface 161 is parallel to the detecting plane normal vector V2 of the light detecting element 14 and the plane normal vector V3 of the light entering unit 22. Fig. 3 teaches another embodiment of the optical detection device 10, wherein the housing 30 has an irregular shape, i.e. the plane normal vector V1 of the flat surface 161 is parallel to the detection plane normal vector V2 but not parallel to the plane normal vector V3. The embodiment of fig. 3 has the protruded light unit 22 closer to the skin of the wearer to avoid the noise interference of the ambient light; accordingly, the flat surface 161 of the light-transmitting member 16 is disposed in the receiving structure 24 in a manner non-parallel to the normal vector V3 of the plane of the light-entering unit 22. The inclined angle of the transparent member 16 can be varied according to the actual requirement.
The light-transmitting member 16 mentioned in the above embodiment is an optical component that is independently installed and installed, and can be flatly attached to the detection surface of the light-detecting element 14 or suspended above the light-detecting element 14. In addition, the optical detection apparatus 10 can fill the containing structure 24 with a sealant to serve as the light-transmitting member 16 for isolating dust. The manufacturing process of the sealant-type light-transmitting member 16 directly fills the liquid glue into the accommodating structure 24 (for example, through the light-entering unit 22), the liquid glue naturally flows over the light-detecting element 14, and the solidified solid glue has the effects of light transmission and dust isolation. However, the possible application of the light-transmitting member 16 is not limited thereto.
In summary, the optical detection device of the present invention includes a light-transmitting member disposed in the housing, and the light-transmitting member is blocked between the light-entering unit and the optical detection assembly. When the light-transmitting piece is directly attached to the light detection assembly, the light-transmitting piece can prevent dust falling into the shell through the light inlet unit (light inlet hole) from directly falling onto the light detection assembly, so that environmental dust pollution can be prevented; when the light-transmitting member is located above the optical detection assembly in a suspended manner, the dust can be isolated to a position far away from the optical detection assembly, and the isolation distance is determined according to the thickness of the light-transmitting member and/or the distance between the light-transmitting member and the optical detection assembly, so that the interference of environmental dust on the image capturing result of the optical detection device is reduced. Compared with the prior art, the invention can effectively reduce the influence of environmental dust on the detection performance of the optical detection device and has better market competitiveness.
The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and all equivalent changes and modifications made in accordance with the claims of the present invention should be covered by the present invention.
