Then, use manufacturing installation 101 (metal pattern 102) to make the operation of main part 1a and touch pad 1 with the intermediate manufacture method according to touch pad of the present invention with reference to description of drawings.
At first, as shown in Figure 3, fixation side installation portion outside the figure of injection molding machine 104 and mobile side installation portion are installed the fixation side metal pattern 111 and the mobile side metal pattern 121 of metal pattern 102 respectively.Next, film for internal mould 131 is placed film for internal mould mobile device 103, make tack coat 134 relative, make 103 work of film for internal mould mobile device with the inner cavity surface 102e of fixation side metal pattern 111.At this moment, film for internal mould mobile device 103 makes film for internal mould 131 only move the length of regulation between the fixation side metal pattern 111 of metal pattern 102 and mobile side metal pattern 121.Then, make 104 work of injection molding machine.At this moment, the clamping by injection molding machine 104 makes mobile side installation portion move toward the fixation side installation portion, thereby as shown in Figure 7, makes fixation side metal pattern 111 and mobile side metal pattern 121 to be bonded with each other under the state that sandwiches film for internal mould 131.In the case, in this metal pattern 102, two ends of the inner cavity surface 102f of the main part 123 of mobile side metal pattern 121 and and the metal die face 123a of these two end abutment between, the two sides does not have the ground that is uneven and connects continuously, and is made of two ends of inner cavity surface 102f the curved surface that metal die face 123a is slowly tilted.Therefore, prevent that positively the film for internal mould 131 that sandwiches as shown in Figure 7 from producing the state of affairs of fold.
Then, the resin of the injecting mechanism force feed flow state of injection molding machine 104.At this moment, the resin of injection molding machine 104 force feeds injects in inner chamber 102a from cast gate 102c by sprue 102b.In the case, as shown in Figure 7, in this metal pattern 102, except the inner cavity surface 102e side at film for internal mould 131 positions of living in and along the position of the width W 2 of the film for internal mould 131 of the length direction of inner cavity surface 102d cast gate 102c is set what be positioned at inner cavity surface 102d.Therefore, the resin one side of injecting in from cast gate 102c toward inner chamber 102a is pressed into inner cavity surface 102f side with film for internal mould 131, and one side is filled into inner chamber 102a.And the pressure of resin is close on the resin that is filled into inner chamber 102a the tack coat 134 that is clipped in the film for internal mould 131 between resin and the inner cavity surface 102f.
Then; after cool time through regulation; the clamping that makes injection molding machine 104 moves toward the direction that deviates from the fixation side installation portion, thereby removes engaging of fixation side metal pattern 111 and mobile side metal pattern 121, and makes mobile side metal pattern 121 leave fixation side metal pattern 111.At this moment, will separate from fixation side metal pattern 111 together with mobile side metal pattern 121 because of the formed products (promptly constituting the matrix part 2 of main part 1a) that resin solidification is shaped.Then, jet tray 125 past main part 123 side shiftings of the injection equipment of injection molding machine 104 by making mobile side metal pattern 121, thus the outer ejector pin of figure stretches out toward the place ahead of main part 123, takes out the matrix part 2 of shaping from mobile side metal pattern 121.In the case, because tack coat 134 is close to matrix part 2 (subsides), so film for internal mould 131 is taken out from mobile side metal pattern 121 together with matrix part 2.
Then, peel the basilar memebrane 132 of film for internal mould 131 from matrix part 2.In the case, because the state of the inside surface 21a of the panel part 21 that nesa coating 3 is bonded layer 134 is attached to matrix part 2 so peel basilar memebrane 132 from nesa coating 3 easily, makes nesa coating 3 be fitted in inside surface 21a.Thus, finish the manufacturing of the main part 1a of nesa coating 3 formations that comprise matrix part 2 and the inside surface 21a that is fitted in panel part 21 in the matrix part 2.Then, the outside surface 21b of opposite board 21 implements dura mater processing and antireflection processing.Then, the end face 21e of the panel part 21 in the matrix part 2 of main part 1a installs terminal for connecting 1b, and the nesa coating 3 of wire that will be fitted in the inside surface 21a of panel part 21 is connected with terminal for connecting 1b.Thus, finish touch pad 1.
In the case, as indicated above, this metal pattern 102 forms cast gate 102c on the inner cavity surface 102d that the end face 21c of the panel part 21 that makes main part 1a is shaped.Therefore, in main part 1a that makes by the mould internal shaping that uses this metal pattern 102 and the touch pad 1 of the 1a of the main consuming body portion, the gate vestiges 21d that produces during with the injection resin is formed on the end face 21c of panel part 21, makes the inside surface 21a of panel part 21 and the smooth state that outside surface 21b forms no gate vestiges.Thereby, avoid forming undesirable that gate vestiges causes at outside surface 21.Again, by the panel part 21 applying nesa coatings 3 of mould internal shaping in bending, nesa coating 3 becomes the state of thickness homogeneous in this touch pad 1.So this touch pad 1 can positively prevent the miswork that causes in uneven thickness of nesa coating 3.
Like this, among the main part 1a of this touch pad 1 and touch pad 1 usefulness, with the end face 21c of the inside surface 21a adjacency of the panel part 21 of applying nesa coating 3 on form gate vestiges 21d, and with its form position be defined in be positioned at panel part 21 except the outside surface 21b side of inside surface 21a and along the position of the width W 1 of the applying scope E1 of the length direction of end face 21c.Therefore, can be so that nesa coating 3 positively be fitted in the state of inside surface 21a with the inside surface 21a of panel part 21 and the smooth state of the no gate vestiges of outside surface 21b formation.As a result, finger tip contact gate vestiges and allow the user feel the state of affairs of not harmony in the time of positively avoiding the touch operation of outer surface 21b.And, main part 1a according to this touch pad 1 and touch pad 1 usefulness, inside surface 21a and outside surface 21b are smooth state, so can fully clearly see image that the inboard of the touch pad 1 that is encased in the mounting object thing shows etc., and can avoid the state of affairs that produces miswork that causes in uneven thickness of panel part 21 reliably.
Again, main part 1a according to this touch pad 1 and touch pad 1 usefulness, by panel part 21 is formed the tabular of bending, for example the radius gauge of panel part 21 is decided to be the identical curvature of curvature with the housing of mounting object thing, thereby the surface of the outside surface 21b of panel part 21 and housing becomes with one side, so the designability of mounting object thing is improved.In the case, utilize the panel part 21 applying nesa coatings 3 of mould internal shaping in bending, thus with utilize vapour deposition method or metallikon different in the structure that flexure plane forms nesa coating 3, can make nesa coating 3 be the uniform state of thickness.Thereby, according to the main part 1a of this touch pad 1 and touch pad 1 usefulness, can positively prevent the miswork that causes in uneven thickness of nesa coating 3.
Again, this metal pattern 102 and touch pad are with in the intermediate manufacture method, the inner cavity surface 102e side that is shaped at the outside surface 21b that makes panel part 21 except film for internal mould 131 positions of living in that is arranged in the inner cavity surface 102d that end face 21c that the inner cavity surface that constitutes inner chamber 102a makes panel part 21 is shaped and cast gate 102c is set along the position of the width W 2 of the film for internal mould 131 of the length direction of inner cavity surface 102d is injected resin from this cast gate 102c and is made matrix part 2 shapings.Therefore, the pressure of the resin during injection can make nesa coating 3 positively be fitted in the inside surface 21a of panel part 21, and gate vestiges 21d is formed on the end face 21c of panel part 21, the smooth state that the inside surface 21a and the outside surface 21b of panel part 21 can be formed no gate vestiges.As a result, can make and positively to avoid panel part 21 to form gate vestiges 21d causing unfavorable touch pad 1 main part 1a.
Again, according to this metal pattern 102 and touch pad intermediate manufacture method, two ends that make the inner cavity surface 102f that the position (scope of promptly fitting E1) of applying nesa coating 3 of the inside surface 21a of panel part 21 is shaped with and with the metal die face 123a of two end abutment between no rugged state continuously the two sides is connected, and constitute two ends of inner cavity surface 102f, thereby can prevent positively that the film for internal mould 131 that sandwiches from producing the state of affairs of fold by the curved surface that metal die face 123a is slowly tilted.
Then, illustrate that another routine touch pad of the present invention is with using forming metal mould and touch pad intermediate manufacture method in intermediate, touch pad, the mould.Moreover in the following explanation, to the component units mark prosign identical with above-mentioned touch pad 1 and manufacturing installation 101, the repetitive description thereof will be omitted.
