Detailed ways

The technical scheme of the utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and through specific embodiments.

Fig. 1 is a structural schematic diagram of a watch provided by a specific embodiment of the present invention through sliding input of a touch ring 2 . As shown in FIG. 1 , a wristwatch described in the present invention that slides input through a touch ring 2 includes a watch screen 1 and a touch ring 2 arranged on the periphery of the watch screen 1 ;

The touch ring 2 includes character function buttons and a touch input area for input through finger sliding.

This solution utilizes the structural characteristics of the watch’s external dial. By setting a circle of touch ring 2 on the periphery of the watch screen 1, the finger slides on the touch ring 2. This watch structure not only widens the traditional input area, but also does not block the screen. On the one hand, it facilitates the text input of the watch, which is more convenient than that of a watch that only uses a touch screen structure, and has a higher recognition accuracy than a mechanically rotating watch input method. The appearance structure is not limited, the structure is more simplified, and the cost has advantages.

It can be seen that the touch ring 2 in this solution is used in combination with two operation modes to realize operations such as text input and editing on the watch. The character function buttons are mainly aimed at relatively common and fixed operations, such as opening and closing input method buttons, direct calling buttons, sending text messages buttons, quick access buttons for commonly used functions, or several general buttons on the periphery of Android and iphone mobile phones , volume buttons, back button, home button, etc. The touch input area is mainly used for the input method input method, and there are many characters, which are input by sliding, such as dynamically displaying the character to be input on the periphery of the screen, and sliding the finger to the corresponding position on the touch ring 2 to complete the input of the character , the realization method adopts the realization method of the existing Android mobile phone system, or operating systems such as iphone.

For the character function button, by setting a small area of the touch ring 2 as a character for printing a specific function, clicking it can directly enter and realize the specific function. For the touch input area of sliding operation, you can either directly select the character by sliding to it, or directly click on the ring at the corresponding position according to the content displayed on the screen to select the content, which is dynamically displayed on the screen Operation content; if the characters mentioned here are on the touch screen, the characters are displayed only when the content needs to be input on the watch. By lighting up the screen and clicking the input area again to enter the information editing interface, the screen will automatically display the surrounding characters; if it is not If the touch screen is used, the input method needs to be opened through the character function button printed on the touch ring 2 . If there are many characters and the watch screen 1 cannot display all the characters, then when the finger slides on the touch ring 2, the characters on the watch screen 1 will also slide in the opposite direction to the hand sliding direction to display the following characters, and then draw Click OK after coming out, or automatically select after a certain period of time.

Preferably, the touch ring 2 is arranged inclined downward along the plane where the watch screen 1 is located from inside to outside. Not only the appearance design is more coordinated, but also the hand operation is more comfortable.

The wrist watch also includes: a force sensor for detecting finger sliding force, a coordinate sensor for detecting finger coordinates, and a CPU, the force sensor and the coordinate sensor are all connected to the CPU, and the force sensor and the coordinate sensor are all located on the touch below the control input area. The implementation method here is the same as the existing touch screen mobile phone implementation technology. The sensor detects the coordinates of the finger sliding on the touch ring 2 and the touch force of the finger on the touch ring 2, and then calculates and judges through the CPU in the watch. Calculates the corresponding character selected.

The shape of the touch ring 2 is circular, oval, or square. The shape of the touch ring 2 can be flexibly designed according to the shape of the watch dial.

In summary, compared with traditional watches, the watch of the present invention has the following advantages:

1. For watches that are input by sliding the touch ring 2, the touch recognition accuracy of the touch ring 2 will be higher than that of ordinary mechanical forms. The design of the rotating structure of the mechanical knob greatly increases the complexity of the overall watch product, and the complex structure brings easy aging. In case of failure, the requirements for anti-drop and waterproof technology are relatively high. Since the touch ring 2 adopts an electronic method, it is relatively simple in structure and has higher reliability;

2. Watches in the form of touch ring 2 have more obvious advantages in appearance and structure. The mechanical rotation type is generally used in round watches, but the form of touch ring 2 can be expanded to any shape, and the application range is wider;

3. "Character function buttons" can be printed on the touch ring 2. Just click these characters to complete some function selections of the watch, but the mechanical rotary type must be rotated to switch functions, and does not have touches such as clicks and double clicks. control operation;

4. Swipe clockwise to select characters, and rotate counterclockwise to switch input methods. When different menus are displayed on the screen, clockwise scrolls down, and counterclockwise scrolls up.

5. When you click on the watch screen 1 to request input, a circle of letter operators will be displayed on the outside of the screen. By sliding the position of the hand, the selected letter can be displayed. When the alphabet is relatively long, you can slide the peripheral dial. At the same time, the alphabet characters can also be rotated counterclockwise. When the sliding is paused for a certain period of time, it will be selected by default, or directly click on the screen to indicate confirmation. The structure is simple and the operation method is intelligent.

The above is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model, but the scope of protection of the utility model is not limited thereto. The equivalent replacement or change of the new technical solution and the concept of the utility model shall be covered by the protection scope of the utility model.
