Abstract

The utility model relates to a computer input device which comprises a casing, a movement path inductor and a transparent sheet. The movement path inductor is arranged inside the casing and emits a sensing light source. The transparent sheet can be arranged between the casing and the movement path inductor by the movable relation and can move to a first position or a second position towards the movement path inductor, so as to ensure that the sensing light source is put through the transparent sheet selectively and is emitted out from the casing or is emitted out from the casing directly, which ensures that the computer input device performs a touch-control mode or a mouse mode correspondingly, which does not require demounting the transparent sheet from the casing.

Description

Computer inputs

Technical field

The utility model relates to a kind of computer inputs, particularly a kind of computer inputs of can be on the plane or controlling with finger.

Background technology

Along with development of science and technology and progress, no matter be PC (Personal Computer, PC) or notebook computer computer equipments such as (Notebook), become masses' indispensable portable tool in daily life or work, yet computer equipment must be by as pointer input devices such as mouse, Trackpad, trace balls, could carry out the controlling of window interface of computer equipment.

With the mouse is example, and its control mode roughly is divided into bobbin type mouse and optical mouse, to control the cursor position on the computer screen smoothly.The bobbin type mouse sees through the rotation of the spin that is installed in the bottom, so that the grating wheel that detection displacement changes produces corresponding electron displacement signal, and then the shift position of control cursor; Optical mouse projects light by the optical sensor module that is installed in the mouse bottom, and this light is learned in the OPTICAL SENSORS of induction module from an object surface refraction light echo, to detect variation through the light of object surface refraction, and then the cursor that produces a correspondence moves signal, and optical mouse has become the main product on the market at present.

In recent years, more the optics sensing module (TC module) that has the cursor manipulation function and carry out preset function is provided in development, has replaced the mouse optical induction module commonly used and the function of button fully.The optics sensing module is arranged at the upper shell of mouse apparatus, and the user is the optical sensor module controlling cursor position bottom mouse optionally, or by the slip of pointing on the optics sensing module, and make vernier produce displacement.

Yet, mouse apparatus with optics sensing module, because of inside disposes two groups of pointer induction modules (being positioned at the optical sensor module of mouse bottom and the optics sensing module at top) simultaneously, make that the wiring of mouse inside is too complicated, cause the volume outward appearance of mouse too heavy, and can't slimming, and go up the wires design that to consider between each zero device in making, cause technique process relatively to increase, make the holding at high price of computer inputs, and can't satisfy that the consumer must frivolous and cheap demand to electronic product now.

In order to improve two groups of problems that the pointer induction module is produced of installing in same mouse apparatus, disclose a kind of dual-purpose optical pointer induction installation in No. 592353 patent of Taiwan patent, it includes a body, an optical sensor spare, reaches a printing opacity contact plate.Optical sensor spare is embedded in the body, and the printing opacity contact plate is embedded at the top of optical sensor spare, and the user can make optical sensor spare upwards launch signal via the printing opacity contact plate by the touching of finger, and obtain the variable quantity of movable image and then the displacement of controlling index; Or, the printing opacity contact plate is removed on the optical pointer induction installation, and make the optical pointer induction installation on planar object, move, make optical sensor spare launch signal downwards, and obtain the variable quantity of change image, and then the displacement of controlling index.

No. 592353 disclosed optical pointer induction installation of patent case, though one group of pointer induction module only is set, yet when the optical pointer induction installation is mobile on planar object, the printing opacity contact plate must be dismantled on the pointer induction installation, and the body of pointer induction installation does not have the design of any accommodation space, for the user, when the printing opacity contact plate under obsolete situation, taking in of contact plate will be a puzzlement greatly, and exist the risk of easy loss, cause the optical pointer induction installation because of lacking the awkward situation that the printing opacity contact plate can't be controlled by finger.

The utility model content

In view of above problem, the utility model provides a kind of computer inputs, printing opacity contact plate with the improvement prior art can't move with respect to mouse body, cause mouse in forward and reverse optical sensor operating process, must repeatedly the printing opacity contact plate be loaded and unloaded on the inconvenience of mouse body, and the printing opacity contact plate is taken in problems such as difficult.

The disclosed computer inputs of the utility model, it includes a housing, a motion track perceptron and a light transmission piece.Enclosure interior has an accommodation space, and is provided with a perforate in housing one side, and the motion track perceptron is arranged in the housing, and corresponding to perforate, so that the sensor light of motion track perceptron is derived from perforate and penetrates outside housing.Light transmission piece is arranged between perforate and the motion track perceptron, and can be moved to the primary importance or the second place with respect to the motion track perceptron.

When light transmission piece is moved to primary importance, the sensing light source that the motion track perceptron is launched passes light transmission piece, and from perforate penetrate in outside so that computer inputs is carried out control mode touch mode; When light transmission piece is moved to the second place, the sensing light source will directly penetrate from perforate, and computer inputs will be carried out mouse mode.

Effect of the present utility model is, computer inputs only need be installed one group of motion track perceptron, and by the displacement of moving member drive light transmission piece, light transmission piece need not be unloaded on housing and tear open, computer inputs can correspondingly be carried out control mode touch mode or mouse mode, significantly reducing manufacturing cost and operating steps, and solve light transmission piece taking in and problem such as loss easily when not using.

More than about the explanation of the utility model content and following embodiment explanation all in order to demonstration with explain principle of the present utility model, and provide patent claim of the present utility model further to explain.
