CN111812962B - Digital input method of smart watch - Google Patents

Abstract

The invention relates to a digit input method of a smart watch, by which when a user inputs digits, especially the digits needing to be kept secret, because a random base point position is arranged, although internal calculation is relatively complex, the rotation of the user is very simple, for example, when the base point position is in a 2 o 'clock direction and a password needing to be input is 8, the user only needs to rotate the position of 8 of an outer shadow ring to the 2 o' clock position. Even if the outside person sees the rotation of the user, the outside person does not know which is the base point position at all, and cannot judge which number the user actually inputs.

Description

Digital input method of smart watch

Technical Field

The invention relates to an input method of a smart watch, in particular to a digital input method of the smart watch.

Background

Because the screen of the watch is small, digital input is generally input by a sliding selection mode, but the input mode is complicated and is easy to monitor.

ZL201710078789.6 discloses a smart watch and a digital input method based on the same, wherein the input of numbers is carried out by adopting the corresponding relation of actual number total and reference number total which are randomly generated, the mode can ensure the safety of inputting numbers on the smart watch by a user, and the input error probability when a screen is directly touched is reduced by using the times of pressing keys as the input mode of the numbers. However, it is obvious that the user of this method needs to check and remember the number of times of pressing, and if theuser inputs 9, the user needs to press the key 9 times, which is easy to count errors.

CN2020101153264 discloses a control method for a smart watch, which utilizes the unique arrangement of the outer shadow ring of the watch to replace the rotation function of the watch keys.

Disclosure of Invention

In view of this, the present invention provides a digital input method for a smart watch, based on a control method for a smart watch disclosed in CN2020101153264, the structure of the smart watch is used to give different functions to the smart watch, so that when a user inputs a number, the digital input method achieves very high security and does not need to touch or press a key to operate at all.

The specific technical scheme of the invention is as follows:

a method of digital input for a smart watch, the method comprising:

recording position numbers of 12 single coil modules which are uniformly fixed on a main board and are circularly arranged, wherein the position numbers of the 12 single coil modules are respectively marked as position numbers 0-11 according to the positions of 12 clock points;

uniformly marking 12 digits on the surface of an outer shadow ring of the watch according to the sequence from 0 to 11; a first magnet is arranged on the inner surface of the outer shadow ring at the position corresponding to one digit A in the 12 digits, and when the watch outer shadow ring positioned at the outer ring of the 12 circularly arranged single coil modules is rotated, current can be generated in the single coil module opposite to the first magnet;

when a number is needed, the watch randomly generates one number B of 12 numbers such as 0-11 as a base point position;

digital input step S1: when the outer shadow ring of the watch is rotated and no current is generated by other single coil modules within a time threshold T after the current is generated by the last single coil module, recording the position number C of the single coil module,

calculating an intermediate number D = B- (C-a);

calculating a number E = D MOD (12) on an outer circle of the alignment base point position B;

when E is any one number of 0-9, the digital input unit inputs the number E in a digital input box of the watch screen and jumps to the input of the next number.

Further, the method includes a number input confirming step S2, implementing the above-mentioned step S1, when E is 10, indicating that all numbers are input;

further, the method includes returning to the previous digit input step S3, implementing the above-mentioned step S1, when E is 11, indicating that the previous digit input is wrong, and the watch clears the previous digit input and requires re-input.

Further, the method further comprises clicking or double-clicking an input box of the watch screen for inputting the wrong number when the user finds that the input number is wrong, and filling the input box of the wrong number when the next number is input.

Further, after the number input unit randomly generates the base point position B, the number B is displayed on a screen.

Further, the number B disappears 3-5 seconds after being displayed on the screen.

Further, in the number input step S1, rotating the outer shadow ring of the watch is a rotation in a fixed direction, the fixed direction being a clockwise or counterclockwise direction.

Further, when a number of a password class is input, all the previously input numbers become a symbol when a next number is input after each input number.

Further, in the number input confirmation step S2, if a number in the password class is input, the watch determines the input number, and if the password is correct, the watch enters the next operation, and if the password is incorrect, all the input numbers are cleared, and the base point position B is regenerated, and the input number is requested again.

Further, the first magnet is configured to be capable of generating current in at most one single coil module at the same point in time.

Through the technical scheme, the operation is performed only by rotating the outer shadow ring, and the input of the user has quite high safety performance by generating the random base point position B, and a touch screen and a key do not need to be touched and pressed.

As shown in fig. 4, thesmart watch 100 includes awatch bezel 101; a watch outershadow ring module 200 is arranged in thewatch middle frame 101; awatch lens 103 is arranged in the watch outershadow ring module 200; adisplay screen 301, amain board 401 and abattery 501 are sequentially arranged between thewatch lens 103 and thewatch bottom case 601.

As shown in fig. 1, adisplay screen 301 of the watch may display functions of the smart watch, such as sports, heart rate, weather, short messages, social information, phone call, etc., and may also display a request to input (see fig. 5). The watch can be operated in a different mode without arranging keys, and the watch outershadow ring module 200 is creatively arranged between thewatch middle frame 101 and the display screen. In fig. 1, thewatch middle frame 101, thedisplay screen 301 and thewatch lens 103 are fixed relatively, and the watch outershadow ring module 200 can rotate around thewatch middle frame 101. As shown in fig. 2, the watchouter bezel module 200 includes a watchouter bezel 211 and awhole coil module 220. The outer part of the watchouter image ring 211 is rotatably connected with thewatch middle frame 101, and the inner part of the watch outer image ring is rotatably connected with thedisplay screen 301; thewhole coil module 220 is arranged below thedisplay screen 301 and fixedly connected with themain board 401. Due to the structural design, the watchouter shadow ring 211 of the watch outershadow ring module 200 can rotate around thewatch middle frame 101, and thewhole coil module 200 and thewatch middle frame 101 are relatively fixed, namely, the watchouter shadow ring 211 can rotate around thewhole coil module 200. Inside theouter shadow ring 211 of the watch, below the display screen, afirst magnet 212 is provided. First, thefirst magnet 212 is preferably fixed to the inner wall of the outer ring of the watch. Second, thefirst magnet 212 is preferably embedded on the inner wall of theouter ring 211 of the watch. As shown in fig. 3, thewhole coil module 200 includes a fixed circle and 12single coil modules 221 uniformly arranged, and the 12coil modules 221 are uniformly fixed on the fixed circle. The fixed circle is fixedly connected with themain board 401, and eachsingle coil module 221 comprises aconductive metal 222, acopper coil 223, aconductive wire 224 and asecond magnet 225. Thecopper coil 223 is wound on the outer side of theconductive metal 222, and theconductive wires 224 are respectively connected to both ends of thecopper coil 223 and then connected to themain board 401. Turning to fig. 2 again, although 16 single coil modules are shown in fig. 2, in this application, there are actually only 12 single coil modules and 12 single coil modules, and thefirst magnet 212 is parallel to and does not intersect with theconductive metal 222 of thesingle coil module 221, and when viewed from thewatch lens 103 of the watch in the direction of the watch bottom case 601 (i.e., the top view state of fig. 2), the length of thefirst magnet 212 or the length of the curved surface is such that thefirst magnet 212 is at most opposite to one conductive metal 222 (i.e., at the same time point, the first magnet enables at most one single coil module to generate current). When thefirst magnet 212 is opposite to one of thesingle coil modules 221, theconductive metal 222 and thecopper coil 223 are located between thefirst magnet 212 and thesecond magnet 225.

The above-mentioned structure design enables a user to generate a weak current in thesingle coil module 221 opposite to thefirst magnet 212 when rotating theouter watch shadow 211.

With the above structure, a method of inputting numbers into a watch using the structure is explained in detail below.

Recording position numbers of 12 single coil modules which are uniformly fixed on a main board and are circularly arranged, wherein the position numbers of the 12 single coil modules are respectively marked as position numbers 0-11 according to the positions of 12 clock points;

uniformly marking 12 digits on the surface of an outer shadow ring of the watch according to the sequence from 0 to 11; afirst magnet 212 is arranged on the inner surface of the outer shadow ring at the position corresponding to one of the 12 digits A, if A is 1 in the embodiment, namely the first magnet is arranged inside the outer shadow ring at the position corresponding to theouter shadow ring 1, and when the watch outer shadow ring positioned at the outer ring of the 12 circularly arranged single coil modules is rotated, current can be generated in the single coil module opposite to the first magnet;

when needing to input numbers, the watch randomly generates one number B of 12 numbers such as 0-11 and the like as a base point position, and displays the number B on a screen;

digital input step S1:

when the watch outer shadow ring is rotated along a fixed direction and no current is generated by the other single coil module within a time threshold T (preferably T is 0.5 seconds or 1 second) after the current is generated by the last single coil module, recording the position number C of the single coil module, and after the position shown in the figure 6 is rotated, recording the position number C of the single coil module which finally generates the current as 6 (6 o' clock position) in the embodiment; since the watch cannot identify what the number on the outer shadow ring is aligned with the base point position B, we calculate from the position number C of the last single coil module that generated the current above, the base point position B and the number a provided with the first magnet:

calculating an intermediate number D = B- (C-a);

the number E = D MOD (12) on the outer circle of the alignment base point position B is calculated.

When E is any one of thenumbers 0 to 9, the number E is input in the number input box.

When a number of a password class is input, all the previous input numbers become a symbol when the next number is input after each input number.

The number input confirmation step S2 is S1 as described above, and indicates that all numbers have been input when E is 10. If the input number is a password number, the watch judges the input number, if the password is correct, the watch enters the next step of operation, if the password is wrong, all the input numbers are emptied, the base point position B is regenerated, and the input number is required again.

Returning to the previous digit input step S3, implementing the above-mentioned S1, when E is 11, indicating that the previous digit was input incorrectly, the watch clears the last digit that has been input and requests a new input.

Sometimes, the number to be input is only 1 digit, and then, after the user inputs the first digit, the watch outer shadow ring is rotated to make E equal to 10 when the user only needs to input the next digit.

The following explains the present invention more specifically.

A first magnet is arranged on the inner surface of the outer shadow ring at the position corresponding to thenumber 1 on the outer shadow ring of the watch, namely A = 1;

when a number needs to be input, the watch randomly generates one number B of 12 numbers such as 0-11, etc. as a base point position, B =2 of the embodiment (as shown in FIG. 5), and displays thenumber 2 on a screen (when the password class input is judged, thenumber 2 is only displayed in the screen for 5 seconds, and then disappears, and a user needs to remember the number);

referring to fig. 6, the first number is input, the above-mentioned S1 is executed, the outer ring is rotated, and the last single coil module generating current is determined, where the position number of the single coil module is C =7 (in fig. 6, the position of theouter ring number 1 where the first magnet is located, the position being in the 7 o' clock direction),

calculating an intermediate number D = B- (C-a) =2- (7-1) = -4;

calculate the remainder of-4 relative to 12, resulting in the number on the outer circle aligned to base point position B:

E= -4 MOD (12)=8。

at this point, 8 is between 1-9, and the watch fills the first number entry box with thenumber 8.

As shown in fig. 7, the second number is input at this time, the above-mentioned S1 is executed, the outer ring is rotated, and the last single coil module generating current is determined, where the position number of the single coil module is C =10 (in fig. 7, the position of theouter ring number 1 where the first magnet is located is the 10 o' clock direction),

calculating an intermediate number D = B- (C-a) =2- (10-1) = -7;

the remainder of-7 relative to 12 is calculated, resulting in the number on the outer circle aligned to base point position B:

E= -7 MOD (12)=5。

at this point, 5 is between 1-9, and the watch fills the first number entry box with thenumber 5.

As shown in fig. 8, the third number is input at this time, the above-mentioned S1 is implemented, the outer ring is rotated, and the last single coil module generating current is determined, where the position number of the single coil module is C =1 (in fig. 8, the position of theouter ring number 1 where the first magnet is located is in the 1 o' clock direction),

calculating an intermediate number D = B- (C-a) =2- (1-1) = 2;

the remainder of 0 relative to 12 is calculated, resulting in the number on the outer circle aligned to base point position B:

E= 2 MOD (12)=2。

at this point, 2 is between 1-9, and the watch fills the first number entry box with thenumber 5.

As shown in fig. 12, the fourth digit is originally required to be input, but the user finds that the previous digit is input incorrectly, and the method for correcting the error is as follows:

the above-mentioned S1 is executed, the outer ring is rotated, and the last single coil module generating current is determined, and the position number of the single coil module is C =4 (in fig. 12, the position of theouter ring number 1 where the first magnet is located is in the 4 o' clock direction),

calculating an intermediate number D = B- (C-a) =2- (4-1) = -1;

the remainder of-1 relative to 12 is calculated, resulting in the number on the outer circle aligned to base point position B:

E= -1 MOD (12)=11。

at this time, E =11, the above-described return to the previous digit input step S3 is performed, and the third digit is newly input.

FIGS. 9-10 are the same as FIGS. 6-8 above and will not be described further herein.

After all the numbers are input as shown in fig. 10, an input confirmation operation is performed, and as shown in fig. 11, the above-described S1 is performed, the outer shadow ring is rotated, and the last single coil module generating the current is determined, where the position number of the single coil module is C =5 (in fig. 12, the position of the outershadow ring number 1 where the first magnet is located, the position being in the 4 o' clock direction),

calculating an intermediate number D = B- (C-a) =2- (5-1) = -2;

calculate the remainder of-2 relative to 12, resulting in the number on the outer circle aligned to base point position B:

E= -2 MOD (12)=10。

at this time, E =10 indicates that all the numbers have been input.

Through the technical scheme, when a user inputs numbers, particularly the numbers needing to be kept secret, firstly, the screen of the watch is small, and people beside the watch are not easy to see, and secondly, 3-5 seconds of base point display time is set, the base point display time disappears after the time, and the input numbers are set to be directly checked, and the like. More importantly, due to the fact that the random base point position is arranged, although internal calculation is complex, rotation of a user is very simple, for example, when the base point position is in the 2 o 'clock direction and a password to be input is 8, the user only needs to rotate the position of the 8 of the outer shadow ring to the 2 o' clock position. Even if the outside person sees the rotation of the user, the outside person does not know which is the base point position at all, and cannot judge which number the user actually inputs. In addition, the method and the device only need to rotate the outer image ring of the entity, and do not need to go to a touch screen or press a key.

Finally, it should be noted that: the above examples are only intended to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, but not to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that: the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments may still be modified, or some technical features may be equivalently replaced; and such modifications or substitutions do not depart from the spirit and scope of the corresponding technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
