Description

觸控面板結構 Touch panel structure

一種「觸控面板」,特別是指一種提高觸控面板內部之感應面積、減少空白區域面積以減少光學對比的觸控面板結構改良。 A "touch panel", in particular, a touch panel structure improvement that improves the sensing area inside the touch panel and reduces the area of the blank area to reduce optical contrast.

按,隨著觸控面板技術的進步,以及產品效能、構件品質不斷的提升,各型態之觸控面板已被廣泛應用於各項電子產品上。 According to the advancement of touch panel technology, as well as the improvement of product performance and component quality, various types of touch panels have been widely used in various electronic products.

請參閱「第1」圖所示,為習知觸控面板之立體分解圖,如圖所示,觸控面板1具有一基板10,其頂面與底面分別設有一X軸感應層11與一Y軸感應層12,該X軸感應層11具有複數排列之X軸感應線111,而該Y軸感應層12具有複數排列之Y軸感應線121,該等X軸感應線111與該等Y軸感應線121分別連接至一控制電路(圖中未標示),另於該X軸感應層11上覆蓋一保護層13,該保護層13用以保護該X軸感應層11避免受到外力觸損毀,然其厚度極薄,並不會影響到觸控面板1之運作。 Please refer to FIG. 1 for an exploded perspective view of a conventional touch panel. As shown in the figure, the touch panel 1 has a substrate 10, and an X-axis sensing layer 11 and a top surface and a bottom surface thereof are respectively disposed. The Y-axis sensing layer 12 has a plurality of X-axis sensing lines 111 arranged in a plurality, and the Y-axis sensing layer 12 has a plurality of Y-axis sensing lines 121 arranged, the X-axis sensing lines 111 and the Y The axis sensing lines 121 are respectively connected to a control circuit (not shown), and the X-axis sensing layer 11 is covered with a protective layer 13 for protecting the X-axis sensing layer 11 from external contact damage. However, its thickness is extremely thin and does not affect the operation of the touch panel 1.

該觸控面板1運作時,以手指或導體接觸該保護層13,於接觸的瞬間產生一電容效應,藉由電容值的變化,可將手指或導體在觸控面板1之接觸位置予以定位,即該等X軸感應線111感應手指或導體位於該觸控面板1之X軸位置,該等Y軸感應線121 感應手指或導體位於該觸控面板1之Y軸位置,如此,結合該X軸感應層11與該Y軸感應層12而感應出手指或導體位於該觸控面板1的位置,由於電容式觸控板可用手指進行輸入,具有輸入操作的便利性,而其輸入操作不需經過觸壓,不會讓觸控面板1有承受反覆應力變形導致損害的缺點。 When the touch panel 1 is in operation, the protective layer 13 is contacted by a finger or a conductor, and a capacitive effect is generated at the moment of contact. By changing the capacitance value, the finger or the conductor can be positioned at the contact position of the touch panel 1 . That is, the X-axis sensing lines 111 sense that the finger or the conductor is located at the X-axis position of the touch panel 1, and the Y-axis sensing lines 121 The sensing finger or the conductor is located at the Y-axis position of the touch panel 1 , so that the X-axis sensing layer 11 and the Y-axis sensing layer 12 are combined to sense the position of the finger or the conductor at the touch panel 1 due to capacitive touch The control board can be input by a finger, and has the convenience of an input operation, and the input operation does not need to be touched, and the touch panel 1 does not have the disadvantage of being damaged by the reverse stress deformation.

然,該等X軸感應線111與該等Y軸感應線121間,主要為網狀正交排列,除了重疊區域外,在其他部分容易產生空白區域,而重疊區域與空白區域容易造成觸控位置的誤判、精確度下降、空白區域光學對比嚴重等缺失,因此,便有業者改良觸控面板1的結構。 However, between the X-axis sensing lines 111 and the Y-axis sensing lines 121, the grid-like orthogonal arrays are mainly arranged. In addition to the overlapping regions, blank areas are easily generated in other portions, and overlapping regions and blank regions are likely to cause touch. The misjudgment of the position, the decrease in accuracy, and the serious optical contrast in the blank area are lacking. Therefore, the manufacturer has improved the structure of the touch panel 1.

如中華民國專利公報,公告號第M338404號之「電容式觸控面板」,其依序疊設有一保護層、複數列導電圖形、一絕緣層與複數行導電圖形,該複數列導電圖形之每一列導電圖形包括複數第一導電圖形,該等第一導電圖形之對角線不等長,並該等第一導電圖形橫向電性連接,並與一橫向電極電性連接,而該複數行導電圖形相同於該複數列導電圖形,其每一行導電圖形包括複數第二導電圖形,該等第二導電圖形之對角線不等長,並該等第二導電圖形縱向電性連接,並與一縱向電極電性連接。 For example, in the Republic of China Patent Gazette, the "capacitive touch panel" of the publication No. M338404, which is sequentially provided with a protective layer, a plurality of columns of conductive patterns, an insulating layer and a plurality of rows of conductive patterns, each of the plurality of rows of conductive patterns The row of conductive patterns includes a plurality of first conductive patterns, the diagonal lines of the first conductive patterns are unequal in length, and the first conductive patterns are electrically connected laterally and electrically connected to a lateral electrode, and the plurality of rows are electrically conductive The pattern is the same as the plurality of columns of conductive patterns, each row of conductive patterns includes a plurality of second conductive patterns, the diagonal lines of the second conductive patterns are unequal lengths, and the second conductive patterns are electrically connected in a longitudinal direction, and The longitudinal electrodes are electrically connected.

然,該「電容式觸控面板」雖然可以增加電路佈局的彈性, 但該複數列導電圖形與複數行導電圖形於重疊後,該等第一導電圖形與該等第二導電圖形間並沒有間距,因此,當手指或導體接觸到該保護層,且接觸點位於該等第一導電圖形與該等第二導電圖之相鄰處時,外部連接之控制電路便無法正確判斷接觸位置,而導致誤判或精確度下降。 However, the "capacitive touch panel" can increase the flexibility of the circuit layout. However, after the plurality of rows of conductive patterns overlap with the plurality of rows of conductive patterns, there is no space between the first conductive patterns and the second conductive patterns. Therefore, when a finger or a conductor contacts the protective layer, and the contact point is located at the When the first conductive pattern is adjacent to the second conductive patterns, the externally connected control circuit cannot correctly determine the contact position, resulting in a false positive or a decrease in accuracy.

再如中華民國專利公報,公告號第M342558號之「電容式觸控板」,係由一底基層、一感應層以及一表面層共同疊接成一透明板體,該感應層含有呈矩陣式交錯設置的複數X軸線跡與Y軸線跡,且各個X軸線跡與Y軸線跡的前端分別設有接點且分別電接於設置在面板邊緣的銀導路,並導接至一訊號輸出排線,使該電容式觸控板的感應訊號可經由該訊號輸出排線傳送到後續的訊號處理電路,其中,該等複數X軸線跡與Y軸線跡係被設置在同一平面上,使個別X軸線跡上的各個感應單元彼此相連接,而個別Y軸線跡上的各個感應單元則彼此相間隔排列,並在各別的Y軸線跡上的任二相鄰排列的感應單元之間設有橋接結構,使在個別Y軸線跡上的任二相鄰排列的感應單元之間彼此相連接,而且絕緣於通過該二相鄰排列感應單元之間的Y軸線跡部分,藉由將X軸向與Y軸向的感應線跡設置在同一平面上,使各感應線跡之佈設位置準確,以增進觸控板感應效能的敏感度及精確度。 In addition, as in the Republic of China Patent Gazette, the "capacitive touch panel" of the publication No. M342558 is a transparent plate body which is integrally laminated by a base layer, a sensing layer and a surface layer, and the sensing layer is interlaced in a matrix. a plurality of X-axis traces and Y-axis traces are provided, and the front ends of the X-axis traces and the Y-axis traces are respectively provided with contacts and electrically connected to the silver guides disposed at the edge of the panel, and are connected to a signal output cable. The sensing signal of the capacitive touch panel can be transmitted to the subsequent signal processing circuit via the signal output cable, wherein the plurality of X-axis traces and the Y-axis trace are disposed on the same plane, so that the individual X-axis The sensing units on the track are connected to each other, and the sensing units on the individual Y-axis tracks are spaced apart from each other, and a bridge structure is arranged between any two adjacent adjacent sensing units on the respective Y-axis tracks. Having two adjacent arrays of sensing elements on individual Y-axis traces connected to each other and insulated from the Y-axis trace portion between the two adjacent arrays of sensing elements by X-axis and Y Axial sense Traces disposed on the same plane, laid so that the position of the sensing accuracy of the stitch to enhance the effectiveness of the touchpad sensing sensitivity and accuracy.

然,該「電容式觸控面板」雖然可提高敏感度及精確度,但將該等複數X軸線跡與Y軸線跡以橋接結構區隔並設置在同一平面,於觸控面板產製時,將導致生產過程過於複雜,進一步降低良率,同時,其採用之橋接結構,於觸控面板使用時,容易因為觸碰之力道過大,使橋接結構產生變形或損毀,進而影響到整的觸控面板的精確度。 However, although the "capacitive touch panel" can improve the sensitivity and accuracy, the plurality of X-axis traces and the Y-axis trace are separated by a bridge structure and disposed on the same plane, when the touch panel is manufactured. The production process will be too complicated and further reduce the yield. At the same time, the bridge structure used in the touch panel is easy to be deformed or damaged due to the force of the touch, which affects the entire touch. The accuracy of the panel.

有鑑於上述的需求,本發明人爰精心研究,並積個人從事該項事業的多年經驗,終設計出一種嶄新的「觸控面板結構改良」。 In view of the above needs, the inventors have carefully studied and accumulated many years of experience in the business, and finally designed a new "touch panel structure improvement".
