  • Patent number: 12191853
    Abstract: A control device with a capacitive-type visual key structure is provided. The control device includes a covering member and a transparent keycap. The covering member includes an accommodation space. The transparent keycap is accommodated within the accommodation space. An elastic element, a first electrode, a key circuit board assembly with a second electrode and a display panel are accommodated within the accommodation space. When the transparent keycap is pressed down, the elastic element is correspondingly moved, and a spatial distance between the first electrode and the second electrode is changed. Consequently, a capacitance change value is formed. According to the capacitance change value, the control device judges whether the transparent keycap is pressed down and triggered.

  • Patent number: 11651912
    Abstract: A control device includes a display panel and a key structure. The key structure is located over the display panel. The key structure includes a circuit board, a keycap, an elastic element and a conducting element. The circuit board includes a circuit structure. The circuit structure includes a first circuit pattern and a second circuit pattern. The first circuit pattern and the second circuit pattern are separated from each other by a gap. The conducting element is disposed on a support part of the elastic element. When the keycap is pressed down, the keycap is moved downwardly to push the support part. After the support part is moved downwardly for a specified travel distance, the conducting element is contacted with the first circuit pattern and the second circuit pattern. Consequently, the first circuit pattern and the second circuit pattern are electrically connected with each other.

  • Publication number: 20230098834
    Abstract: A transmission mechanism of an electromechanical lock includes a first rotating wheel and a rotatable structure. The first rotating wheel has a recessed portion and two first protruding portions. The recessed portion is arranged in a center of the first rotating wheel, and the two first protruding portions are separated from each other and protrude from a side surface of the recessed portion. The rotatable structure is arranged in the recessed portion. The rotatable structure includes a rotatable portion and two elastic members. The rotatable portion is rotatably arranged in the recessed portion. The two elastic members are separated from each other and connected to the rotatable portion, in which each of the elastic members has a second protruding portion close to the side surface of the recessed portion and is configured to interfere with each of the first protruding portions.

  • Patent number: 11561630
    Abstract: A menu control device includes a casing and a roller module. The roller module is installed in the casing. The roller module includes a base, an elastic supporting arm, a scroll wheel, an encoder, a switch element and a microprocessor. The elastic supporting arm is connected with the base. The scroll wheel is pivotally coupled to the elastic supporting arm. The encoder is located beside the scroll wheel. The encoder generates an encoding signal in response to the rotation of the scroll wheel. When an external pressing force is applied to the scroll wheel, the elastic supporting arm is swung toward the switch element, and the switch element is triggered to generate a switching signal. The microprocessor performs an item browsing operation on a menu according to the encoding signal. The microprocessor performs an item selecting operation on the menu according to the switching signal.
