2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a transparent touch panel of the resistive film type, a pair of an upper electrode sheet 1 and a lower electrode sheet 2 having a transparent electrode made of ITO or the like on a transparent film is made of an insulator between the electrodes. There is a case where a transparent holding plate 5 made of resin is entirely adhered to the lower surface of the lower electrode sheet 2 via a transparent adhesive layer 4 (see FIG. 2).

As the transparent film, a polyethylene terephthalate film having excellent flexibility for input and having a thickness of 100 to 200 μm is used, and is usually biaxially stretched.
In addition, the transparent holding plate 5 has a thickness of 0.5 to 3 which is excellent in rigidity for protecting a screen such as an LCD from input pressure.
A 0 mm polycarbonate plate or a plate obtained by subjecting a lower surface of the polycarbonate plate to a low reflection treatment is used.

However, the polyethylene terephthalate film used for the transparent film of the lower electrode sheet 2 and the polycarbonate plate used for the transparent holding plate 5 have a difference in expansion coefficient and a difference in the presence or absence of stretching. In addition, the transparent film of the lower electrode sheet 2 and the transparent holding plate 5 are entirely bonded. Therefore, when the touch panel is exposed to severe temperature or humidity environment, there is a difference in dimensional change between the lower electrode sheet side of the transparent holding plate and the opposite side, and the central part of the touch panel warps so as to protrude upward. (See FIG. 3). This warp causes an air layer to be formed between the touch panel and the screen below the touch panel, causing extra flexure in the entire touch panel at the time of input, thereby dulling the operation feeling.

[0005] This warpage can be forcibly made flat when it is installed on a screen such as an LCD or CRT.
Then, since the transparent film of the lower electrode sheet 2 is wavy, the appearance of the touch panel and the visibility of the screen are deteriorated. Further, when the transparent film of the lower electrode sheet 2 is wavy, the gap between the electrodes becomes uneven,
As a result, the input feeling of the touch panel differs depending on the location. Further, when the undulation is severe, the electrodes may come into contact with each other, resulting in poor insulation.

While the upper electrode sheet 1 and the lower electrode sheet 2 are adhered by an adhesive or a double-sided tape outside the display surface area, the lower electrode sheet 2 and the transparent holding plate 5 are entirely transparent. It is adhered via the adhesive layer 4. Since there is no air layer between the lower electrode sheet 2 and the transparent holding plate 5, the upper electrode sheet 1 does not bend excessively at the time of input, so that the operation feeling is not dulled, and light at the boundary with the air layer is not generated. Does not occur. The transparent adhesive layer 4 may be made of a transparent adhesive such as an acrylic adhesive that is generally used for bonding the lower electrode sheet 2 and the transparent holding plate 5 over the entire surface. It is more preferable to use a material having a refractive index similar to that of the transparent holding plate 5. The transparent adhesive layer 4 may be formed by applying an adhesive directly to the lower electrode sheet 2 or the transparent holding plate 5 or by applying a double-sided adhesive film in which an adhesive is applied to both surfaces of a thin transparent support film in advance. It may be bonded to the lower electrode sheet 2 or the transparent holding plate 5.

The transparent warp correcting sheet 6 has a thickness of 50
A polyethylene terephthalate film of up to 200 μm is used. Since this film is made of the same polyethylene terephthalate as the transparent film of the lower electrode sheet 2,
Even when the touch panel is exposed to severe temperature and humidity environments, there is almost no difference in dimensional change between the lower electrode sheet 2 side of the transparent holding plate 5 and the transparent warp correction sheet 6 side, and the touch panel hardly warps. Further, the lower surface of the transparent warp correction sheet 6 may be subjected to a low reflection treatment. The low-reflection processing includes processing such as applying a low-reflection material using a low-refractive-index resin such as a fluorine resin or a silicon resin, or forming a metal multilayer film. For the transparent adhesive layer 4 for bonding the transparent warp correcting sheet 6 and the transparent holding plate 5, the same adhesive as used for bonding the lower electrode sheet 2 and the transparent holding plate 5 is used. In addition, the formation of the transparent adhesive layer 4
The adhesive may be applied directly to the transparent warp correcting sheet 6 or the transparent holding plate 5, or a double-sided adhesive film formed by applying an adhesive to both sides of a thin transparent support film in advance may be used. It may be attached to the plate 5.
