Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Eingabegerät für Computer nach dem Oberbegriff des Hauptanspruchs.The invention relates to an input device for computers according to the preamble of Main claim.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde computergrafische Daten durch den Benutzer veränderbar zu machen.The object of the invention is to change computer graphics data by the user close.
Dies wird erfindungsmäßig dadurch gelöst, daß ein oder mehrere Taststifte (1) in ihrer Lage veränderbar sind und diese Lageveränderung durch eine Vorrichtung, die nachfolgend in den Unteransprüchen A, B und C beschrieben wird, gemessen wird.This is achieved according to the invention in that the position of one or more styli ( 1 ) can be changed and this change in position is measured by a device which is described below in subclaims A, B and C.
Durch die Möglichkeit mehrere Taststifte nebeneinander anzuordnen ergibt sich die Möglichkeit, mehrere Raumpunkte gleichzeitig abzutasten. Hieraus ergibt sich die über den Stand der Technik hinausreichende Möglichkeit zur haptischen Interaktion mit den Taststiften, vergleichbar der mechanischen Einwirkung auf einen Tonklumpen.The possibility of arranging several styli side by side offers the possibility of to scan several spatial points simultaneously. This results in the state of the art extensive possibility for haptic interaction with the stylus, comparable to the mechanical action on a lump of clay.
Bevorzugte Anordnung ist die Aufreihung wie in Bild 4 beispielhaft dargestellt, die bei größtmöglicher Kompaktheit die Repräsentation von Kurvenverläufen ermöglicht.The preferred arrangement is the line-up as shown in Figure 4, which enables the representation of curves to be as compact as possible.
Durch die Erweiterung zur Matrix, wie in Bild 5 beispielhaft dargestellt, ergibt sich die Möglichkeit zur Repräsentation von komplexen Freiformen.The extension to the matrix, as shown in Figure 5, gives the possibility to represent complex free forms.
Die Möglichkeit zum Anbringen einer Antriebseinheit an einem Taststift (1) wird in Bild 6 dargestellt. Der Antrieb geschieht folgendermaßen: Der Elektromagnet zieht den Mitnehmer (12) aus Metall an, wodurch der Taststift (1) verschoben wird. Der E-Magnet wird wieder gelöst, wodurch der Mitnehmer (12) wieder in seine Ausgangslage zurückkehrt und der Vorgang wiederholt werden kann. Die Rücklaufsperre (13) verhindert ein zurückrutschen von (1). Durch Druck auf die nach außen geführte Rücklaufsperre (13) kann diese mechanisch gelöst werden wodurch der Taststift (1) durch die gespannte Zugfeder (14) wieder in seine Ausgangslage zurückkehrt.The possibility of attaching a drive unit to a stylus ( 1 ) is shown in Figure 6. The drive happens as follows: The electromagnet attracts the driver ( 12 ) made of metal, whereby the stylus ( 1 ) is moved. The E-magnet is released again, whereby the driver ( 12 ) returns to its starting position and the process can be repeated. The backstop ( 13 ) prevents (1) from sliding back. By pressing the backstop ( 13 ), which is led outwards, it can be released mechanically, causing the stylus ( 1 ) to return to its starting position due to the tensioned tension spring ( 14 ).
Claims (1)
- - die Eingabe geschieht durch Lageveränderung eines oder mehrerer Taststifte (1) durch den Benutzer oder eine entsprechende Vorrichtung.
- - die Anzahl und Ausrichtung der Taststifte kann, von eins beginnend, der jeweiligen Aufgabenstellung angepaßt werden.
- - Der oder die Taststifte können, gegebenenfalls durch entsprechende Zusatzeinrichtungen, sowohl zur Wiedergabe von physikalischen Gegebenheiten als auch zur interaktiven Veränderung der Darstellung derselben verwendet werden.
- - Ein oder mehrere Taststifte können durch Anbringen der dazugehörigen Antriebseinheit (2), bei
Bedarf auch gleichzeitig zur Eingabe, als Ausgabegerät zur Verwendung kommen.
Der Hauptanspruch wird erweitert durch die folgenden Unteransprüche A, B und C:
A: Die Auswertung der Verschiebung des Taststifts (1) relativ zu dem ihn umgebenden Gehäuse (3) erfolgt durch die elektromagnetische Induktion der fest mit dem Taststift (1) verbundenen Spule (4). Durch die Lageveränderung des Taststifts verändert sich die elektromagnetische Induktion auf die fest mit dem Gehäuse verbundene Spule (5), die im Bild 1 im Schnittbild dargestellt ist.
B: Die Auswertung der Verschiebung des Taststifts (1) relativ zu dem ihn umgebenden Gehäuse (3) erfolgt durch die Rotation der auf einer Achse (7), die fest mit dem Gehäuse (3) verbunden ist, gelagerten Schlitzscheibe (6). Durch die Lageveränderung des Taststifts dreht sich die Schlitzscheibe, wodurch wiederum der Lichtstrahl der Leuchtdiode (8) auf die Fotozelle (9) wiederholt unterbrochen wird, wie im Bild 2 dargestellt ist.
C: Die Auswertung der Verschiebung des Taststifts (1) relativ zu dem ihn umgebenden Gehäuse (3) erfolgt durch die Änderung der Stromstärke des fest mit dem Taststift (1) verbundenen Schleifkontaktes (10). Durch die Lageveränderung des Taststifts verändert sich die Position des Schleifkontaktes auf der fest mit dem Gehäuse verbundenen Spule (11), wie im Bild 3 dargestellt ist.
- - The entry is made by changing the position of one or more styli ( 1 ) by the user or a corresponding device.
- - The number and orientation of the stylus can, starting from one, be adapted to the task at hand.
- - The stylus or styli can be used, if necessary by appropriate additional devices, both for reproducing physical conditions and for interactively changing the representation of the same.
- - One or more styli can be used as an output device by attaching the associated drive unit ( 2 ), if necessary also at the same time for input.
The main claim is extended by the following sub-claims A, B and C:
A: The displacement of the stylus ( 1 ) relative to the housing ( 3 ) surrounding it is evaluated by the electromagnetic induction of the coil ( 4 ) firmly connected to the stylus ( 1 ). The change in position of the stylus changes the electromagnetic induction on the coil ( 5 ) which is firmly connected to the housing and is shown in section 1 in FIG .
B: The displacement of the stylus ( 1 ) relative to the housing ( 3 ) surrounding it is evaluated by the rotation of the slotted disc ( 6 ) mounted on an axis ( 7 ) which is firmly connected to the housing ( 3 ). Due to the change in position of the stylus, the slotted disc rotates, which in turn repeatedly interrupts the light beam from the light-emitting diode ( 8 ) onto the photocell ( 9 ), as shown in Figure 2.
C: The displacement of the stylus ( 1 ) relative to the housing ( 3 ) surrounding it is evaluated by changing the current strength of the sliding contact ( 10 ) that is firmly connected to the stylus ( 1 ). The position of the stylus changes the position of the sliding contact on the coil ( 11 ) that is firmly connected to the housing, as shown in Figure 3.
