At first carry out step 201: judge whether have a plurality of pressures contact between first conductive layer and second conductive layer.
At first wherein two electrodes in the control module 21 controlling resistance formula contact panels 30 electrically connect power source supply end and earth terminal to apply voltage difference, measure the voltage of other two electrodes again, judge whether different magnitude of voltage generations.To be example below with the equivalent electrical circuit of first embodiment of Fig. 3, description of step 201.Be noted that the first embodiment of the present invention is example to have first pressure contact T1, the T1 ' between first conductive layer 31 and second conductive layer 32 with second pressure contact T2, the T2 ', but the present invention is not as limit.When having first pressure contact T1, the T1 ' between first conductive layer 31 and second conductive layer 32 with second pressure contact T2, the T2 ', first conductive layer 31 and second conductive layer 32 form a plurality of equivalent resistance Ra1, Ra2, Ra3, Rb1, Rb2 and Rb3 respectively to I haven't seen you for ages, first presses contact T1 and first to press between the T1 ' of contact can form equivalent resistance Rz1, and second presses contact T2 and second to press between the T2 ' of contact can form equivalent resistance Rz2.First electrode 311 of control module 21 controls this moment first conductive layer 31 electrically connects with power source supply end, and second electrode 312 electrically connects with earth terminal, to apply voltage difference.Utilize measuring unit 22 to measure the third electrode 321 of second conductive layer 32 and the magnitude of voltage of the 4th electrode 322 respectively again.If first conductive layer 31 and second conductive layer 32 have only one to press the contact, third electrode 321 is identical with the magnitude of voltage meeting of the 4th electrode 322.Therefore if third electrode 321 is different with the magnitude of voltage of the 4th electrode 322, can learn that first conductive layer 31 and second conductive layer 32 have more than one pressure contact.Control module 21 can judge that whether having first between first conductive layer 31 and second conductive layer 32 presses contact T1, T1 ' to press contact T2, T2 ' with second by above-mentioned mode.

When between definite first conductive layer 31 and second conductive layer 32 a plurality of pressures contact being arranged, promptly carry out step 202: in first electrode, second electrode, third electrode and the 4th electrode, repeatedly choose two electrodes in the mode of not reproducible combination and electrically connect with power source supply end or earth terminal respectively, to apply voltage difference.
Control module 21 is utilized switched circuit 23, come repeatedly to choose two electrodes in first electrode 311, second electrode 312, third electrode 321 and the 4th electrode 322 in the mode of not reproducible combination, these two electrodes are electrically connected with power source supply end or earth terminal respectively, to apply voltage difference.
And carry out step 203 simultaneously: choose remaining electrode and measuring unit and electrically connect to obtain a plurality of magnitudes of voltage.
Control module can utilize switched circuit 23 to choose remaining electrode 21 this moments, and remaining electrode is connected with measuring voltage with measuring unit 22 respectively.Suppose can choose earlier first electrode 311 and be connected with power source supply end in step 202, second electrode 312 electrically connects with earth terminal, and the voltage of third electrode 321 is measured in control survey unit 22 again.Then choose first electrode 311 and be connected with earth terminal, second electrode 312 electrically connects with power source supply end, to measure the voltage of third electrode 321.Just can record two different magnitudes of voltage thus from third electrode 321.Then change connected mode in the mode of not reproducible combination again, for example choose third electrode 321 and is connected with power source supply end, the 4th electrode 322 and earth terminal electric connection, and measuring unit 22 is measured the voltage of first electrode 311 and second electrode 312 respectively.Then, can obtain a plurality of magnitudes of voltage by repeating above-mentioned step 202 and step 203 to measure the magnitude of voltage of each electrode on first conductive layer 31 and second conductive layer 32 in regular turn.
Carry out step 204 again: calculate a plurality of equivalent resistances between first electrode, second electrode, third electrode, the 4th electrode, the first pressure contact and the second pressure contact.
After obtaining a plurality of magnitudes of voltage, the principle that can utilize voltage to be directly proportional with resistance calculates first electrode 311, second electrode 312, third electrode 321, the 4th electrode 322, first pressure contact T1, the T1 ' and second a plurality of equivalent resistances of pressing between contact T2, the T2 '.Equivalent electrical circuit with first embodiment of Fig. 3 is an example, Ra1 is arranged in the present embodiment to Rz2 totally eight groups of equivalent resistances between first conductive layer 31 and second conductive layer 32.After carrying out step 202 and step 203,, can calculate eight groups of equivalent resistances as long as obtain the relational expression of eight groups voltage and resistance.
But the computable resistance number of the present invention does not exceed with first embodiment.In order to carry out more accurate calculating, the present invention also can increase the resistance number that calculates between first conductive layer 31 and second conductive layer 32, i.e. second embodiment as shown in Figure 4.Compare with first embodiment, the equivalent resistance of second embodiment has increased equivalent resistance Ra4, Ra5, Rb4 and Rb5.The flow process of recycling above-mentioned steps 202 and step 203 can be calculated first electrode 311, second electrode 312, third electrode 321, the 4th electrode 322, first pressure contact T1, the T1 ' and 1 12 groups of equivalent resistances of pressing between contact T2, the T2 '.Control module 21 can utilize 12 groups of equivalent resistances to calculate the position that first pressure contact T1, the T1 ' and second presses contact T2, T2 ' more accurately.
After calculating a plurality of equivalent resistances, just carry out step 205: the position of calculating a plurality of pressures contact.
Then utilize resistance value with apart from the principle of equal proportion, just can calculate the position of a plurality of pressures contact.First embodiment with Fig. 3 is an example, because first electrode, 311 to second electrodes 312 are fixed with the total resistance value of third electrode 321 to the 4th electrodes 322, therefore after obtaining between first conductive layer 31 and second conductive layer 32 eight equivalent resistances, can utilize the principle of equal proportion to try to achieve first position of pressing contact T1, T1 ' and second pressure contact T2, T2 '.
Be noted that herein the method for a plurality of pressures of identification of the present invention contact is not exceeded with above-mentioned order of steps, as long as can reach purpose of the present invention, but the also change of above-mentioned order of steps.
In addition, the method for a plurality of pressures of identification of the present invention contact also can be used the five-wire resistance type touch panel 30 ' shown in Figure 1B.Please refer to Fig. 5, this figure is the equivalent circuit diagram of the electric resistance touch-control panel of five-line of the present invention.
Present embodiment is that example describes to have first pressure contact T1, the T1 ' between first conductive layer 31 ' and second conductive layer 32 ' with second pressure contact T2, the T2 ', but the present invention is not as limit.As shown in Figure 5, control module 21 utilizes switched circuit 23 repeatedly to choose sensing electrode 311 ', first electrode 321 ', second electrode 322 ', third electrode 323 ' and the 4th electrode 324 ' two electrodes wherein in the mode of not reproducible combination, these two electrodes are connected with power source supply end or earth terminal respectively, to apply this voltage difference.Remaining electrode then electrically connects measuring unit 22 respectively, can obtain two magnitudes of voltage at remaining electrode, obtains a plurality of magnitudes of voltage whereby, and tries to achieve the relational expression of 14 groups voltage and resistance.The principle that is directly proportional with resistance by voltage is obtained the equivalent resistance Ra1~Ra3 on first conductive layer 31 ' again, and equivalent resistance Rz1, the Rz2 between equivalent resistance Rb1~Rb9 on second conductive layer 32 ' and the pressure contact be totally ten four groups of equivalent resistances.And obtain first whereby and press contact T1, T1 ' and second to press the position of contact T2, T2 '.On the other hand, also can only obtain second conductive layer, 32 ' last nine groups of equivalent resistance Rb1~Rb9, can obtain first and press contact T1, T1 ' and second to press the position of contact T2, T2 '.Because the method for the method of a plurality of pressures of five-wire resistance type touch panel 30 ' identification contact and a plurality of pressures of aforementioned four-wire type electric resistance touch-control panel 30 identifications contact is similar, so do not repeat them here.
By above-mentioned mode, utilize electric resistance touch-control panel 30 ' also can identify a plurality of pressures contact.
