To introduce several embodiment in detail and come the main realization principle of the inventive method is explained in detail and illustrates according to foregoing invention principle of the present invention below.
Embodiment one
Controller according to the position of each contact point that gets access to, and the force value of each contact point correspondence, is determined the average pressure value of contact point unit area when detecting touch-screen the contact incident has taken place.
Please refer to accompanying drawing 4, two contact points when contact point A once contacts incident with contact point B for generation, wherein the force value of contact point A is 100 Pascals, and the force value of contact point B is 60 Pascals, so the average pressure value on the unit area that has point of contact be (100+60)/2=80 Pascal.
Whether controller judges the average pressure value of contact point unit area greater than predetermined threshold, in the average pressure value of judging the contact point unit area during greater than predetermined threshold, sends and is used to remind the user to take to prevent the alerting signal of the measure of touch screen from being damaged; Otherwise do not handle.
Suppose that predetermined threshold is 50 Pascals, when controller is judged average pressure value 80 Pascals on the contact point unit area and surpassed predetermined threshold, remind the user to take to prevent the measure of touch screen from being damaged by modes such as caution the tinkle of bells.
Embodiment two
Controller is with predetermined period, and for example the length in each cycle is 1s, detects with preset frequency whether the contact incident is arranged in other words; And determine in consecutive periods, to detect the number of times of contact incident, specifically, controller is when detecting the contact incident, by counter records number oftimes 1, if in next cycle, continue to have detected the contact incident, counter adds 1 so, if do not detect contact incident, counter O reset so in next cycle, controller is detecting the contact incident, after counter adds 1, judge the counter currency, thereby determine in consecutive periods, to detect the number of times of contact incident.
Controller is after determining the number of times that detects the contact incident in consecutive periods, judge that whether this number of times is greater than predetermined threshold, if greater than predetermined threshold, then send and be used to remind the user to take to prevent the alerting signal of the measure of touch screen from being damaged, perhaps take the corresponding measure that prevents touch screen from being damaged; Otherwise do not handle.
Suppose that controller all detects the contact incident that taken place in 20 continuous cycles, and predetermined threshold is 10 times, controller is judged the number of times that detects the contact incident in consecutive periods and has been surpassed predetermined threshold 20 times so, controller can remind the user to take to prevent the measure of touch screen from being damaged by modes such as caution the tinkle of bells, also can adopt predetermined measures to prevent that touch-screen is damaged in addition, for example the portable terminal at controller control touch-screen place shakes, if touch-screen is subjected to long extruding in pocket or school bag usually, by vibrations the position of touch-screen is changed, thereby help to eliminate the extruding that is subjected to.
The scheme of the prevention touch screen from being damaged that the embodiment of the invention provides, after detecting touch-screen the contact incident taken place, when determining this contact incident and can cause touch screen from being damaged, sending alerting signal takes measures with the prompting mobile terminal user, perhaps carrying out vibrations waits measure to change the position of portable terminal, thereby realize finding as early as possible to cause the impaired external event of touch-screen, prevent that touch-screen is damaged.
Embodiment three
The scheme of the prevention touch screen from being damaged that provides among embodiment one, the embodiment two can adopt the mode of computer software to realize wherein each step, and the scheme that realizes the prevention touch screen from being damaged by hardware mode also is provided in the present embodiment.
Please refer to accompanying drawing 5, the synoptic diagram of reference coordinate when determining contacting points position information on the electric resistance touch screen for having now, existing electric resistance touch screen mostly is the four-wire type electric resistance touch screen, is reference point with the central point in the location during contact point, when contact point is positioned at the upper-right position of touch-screen, the horizontal ordinate of contact point be on the occasion of; When contact point was positioned at the top-left position of touch-screen, the horizontal ordinate of contact point was a negative value, ordinate be on the occasion of; When contact point was positioned at the position, lower-left of touch-screen, the horizontal ordinate of contact point was a negative value, and ordinate is a negative value; When contact point is positioned at the position, bottom right of touch-screen, the horizontal ordinate of contact point be on the occasion of, ordinate is a negative value.
Please refer to accompanying drawing 6, the principle schematic that the realization that provides for present embodiment prevents the device of touch screen from being damaged.Wherein four-wire type touch-screen connector has four port x+, x-, y+, y-, and wherein x+ is used for when the touch-screen upper-right position has the contact incident, exports one and is higher than zero voltage, and the effect of x-, y+, y-is similar, here repeats no more.
When touch-screen comes in contact incident, the x axle of contact point correspondence or the voltage on the y axle become non-zero by zero on the conductive layer, at this moment x+ or x-port are to the voltage at comparer output contact point place this moment, because the reference voltage of comparer is 0v, comparer is after detecting the voltage that is higher than 0v, to predetermined significant level of counter output, counter is with preset sampling frequency, for example 1Hz level that comparer is sent is sampled, when each sampling, if sampled value be significant level then counter on original count value basis, add 1, if sampled value is other values except that described significant level, then counter is with the count value zero clearing.When the accumulated value of counter surpassed predetermined threshold, for example predetermined threshold was 20 times, sent a prearranged signals to controller, after controller receives prearranged signals, drove audio chip output caution the tinkle of bells; After perhaps controller receives prearranged signals, drive the vibrations device portable terminal is shaken.
Preferably, please refer to accompanying drawing 7, on the basis of accompanying drawing 6, increased switch A, switch B and interrupt flip-flop.Switch A, switch B are connected between four-wire type touch-screen connector and the comparer.Normally use under the situation of (active) at portable terminal, controller gauge tap A, switch B disconnect four-wire type touch-screen connector and comparer, for example switch to that x+ directly links to each other with X+, x-directly links to each other with X-.Do not operating relevant incident with the user surpassing the schedule time, when for example contacting incident, key-press event etc. and taking place, portable terminal enters dormant state (idle).Before portable terminal enters dormant state, controller control y+, y-output predetermined voltage, 3v voltage and switch A, switch B switched to four-wire type touch-screen connector and comparer are communicated with for example, when contact first time incident takes place, x axle level change triggers counter is counted on the one hand, and detailed process and accompanying drawing 6 are similar; Thereby y axle level sends an interruption by high step-down to controller on the other hand, controller is had no progeny in receiving this, the recovered part function is to prepare the prearranged signals that the count pick up device sends from dormant state, and when receiving prearranged signals, drive audio chip or drive vibrations device transmission alerting signal.
Accompanying drawing 7 is to change as the interruption that makes controller recovered part function with y axle level, change with the level of x axle that foundation as counting is described, obviously, also can x axle level change, change as the foundation of counting with the level of y axle as the interruption that makes controller recovered part function.
Preferably, the controller in accompanying drawing 6, the accompanying drawing 7 can use embedded type CPU to realize.
The device of the prevention touch screen from being damaged in the accompanying drawing 7 is compared with the device of the prevention touch screen from being damaged shown in the accompanying drawing 6, has increased a prerequisite: when the user normally uses touch-screen, do not send alerting signal to the user.Controller need not to be ready at all times the prearranged signals that the count pick up device sends when dormancy, only have no progeny in receiving, and prepares the prearranged signals that the count pick up device sends, thereby can saves energy, reduces power consumption.
Because present most of touch-screens adopt is that central point with touch-screen is the four-wire type touch-screen connector of reference point, so present embodiment is that example is introduced with four-wire type touch-screen connector.Obviously, under the situation of touch-screen connector that with the touch-screen lower left corner is the twin wire touch-screen connector of reference point or other types, the scheme that present embodiment provides is simple to stand good after adjusting.
The scheme of the hardware mode realization prevention touch screen from being damaged that provides among the embodiment three is compared with the scheme that the computer software mode that embodiment one, embodiment two provide realizes, software implement scheme can not increase the manufacturing cost of whole portable terminal, carrying out logic control by program gets final product, but for controller, need real-time detection whether to come in contact incident, remain normal use (active) state, thereby can increase power consumption of mobile terminals; For hardware implementations, though need to increase a small amount of several devices, increased the manufacturing cost of whole portable terminal, can reduce power consumption.
