Publication number: 20250068272Abstract: The present application discloses a capacitive screen, a method for its interaction with a stylus, and a storage medium. The capacitive screen includes a touch control chip and a screen coil. The touch chip generates a first current signal, which the screen coil, integrated as a metal coil, converts into a first electromagnetic signal. This signal is sent to the stylus, which then returns a second electromagnetic signal to the screen coil. The screen coil converts this into a second current signal for the touch chip, which calculates the distance between the screen and stylus. This invention enables real-time distance monitoring and interaction between the screen and stylus with low cost and power consumption.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 16, 2024Publication date: February 27, 2025Inventors: Yaoguo Zhang, Haifeng Shen, Bo Xia, Bo Nie, Congqing Yu, Guofan Cheng, Ruiming Ni

Patent number: 11389008Abstract: A foldable tension spring mattress, wherein a vertical pressure is converted into a tension by means of a wrapping blanket; the tension acts on the periphery of a spring net and is converted into a pulling force acting on coil springs and penetrating springs; and then the pulling force is uniformly dispersed to each of the coil springs, so that the local overstressing of the coil springs and the penetrating springs is avoided, thereby preventing the spring net and the penetrating springs from being arched and sunken. As a result, the mattress may keep good elasticity all the time, which further increases the comfort level of the spring mattress. The present solution may alleviate the plastic deformation of the coil springs to further increase the comfort level of the spring mattress and improve the elasticity and durability of the spring mattress.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2018Date of Patent: July 19, 2022Inventor: Bo Nie
