The compound pressure sensitivity layer 50s of the three-dimensional input module 50 proposed by this enforcement is located at and touches Control electrode layer (including the first touch control electrode layer 512 and second touch control electrode layer 514) one Side, due to touch control electrode layer and compound pressure sensitivity layer 10s it is relatively independent, therefore, Liang Zheke Made by different vendor with separating, then can be made by simple laminating and both be had There is touch detection again with pressure detection with three-dimensional input module 50, in manufacture Mutual independence can reduce the fraction defective of final finished to a certain extent.This kind outer The setting of hanging structure causes the maintenance of three-dimensional input module 50 to become possibility, works as touch-control When electrode layer or compound pressure sensitivity layer 50s a portions go wrong, we can be with non- The replacement operation of corresponding component is easily carried out often.In order to cater to the needs in market, pass The contact panel of the single function of system will be on the verge of being replaced, but using provided by the present invention Three-dimensional input module 50 is quite different, and we can be being passed by the simple operations such as laminating ground The side plug-in one of system contact panel is combined pressure sensitivity layer 50s to realize to conventional touch face " upgrading " of plate, it is to avoid the conventional touch panel made is eliminated what is brought Energy waste, and no matter existing contact panel to be which kind of structure can pass through plug-in " upgrading " is realized in formula design.
First touch control electrode layer 512 can be arranged on base with second touch control electrode layer 514 The relative both sides of material layer 513, i.e., such as glass thin membrane type (Glass-film type;GF2) Framework, which can also be separately positioned on different substrate layers, i.e., such as diaphragm type (Glass-film-film type;GFF), or the first touch control electrode layer 512 and second is touched Control electrode layer 514 is interlaced, i.e., be touch-control (single-side type as built bridge;SITO) Or both between no overlap, i.e., as one-layer multi-point touch control (non-cross type) shape Formula is arranged in the same plane.
Refer to Fig. 6 A, third embodiment of the invention three-dimensional input module (non-label) with First embodiment three-dimensional input module 10 the difference is that only:First pressure sensitivity unit 751a is different from the first pressure sensitivity unit 151 (referring to Fig. 3 A) in first embodiment, tool Body be the first pressure sensitivity unit 751a be square-wave-shaped, due to pressing when, pressure sensitivity material Marginal portion is easier to experience pressure and deform so as to cause sending out for pressure signal It is raw, therefore the first pressure sensitivity unit 751a is set to into square-wave-shaped, due to the square-wave-shaped First pressure sensitivity unit 751a marginal portions size substantially increases, the first pressure sensitivity unit 751a There is better pressure detection sensitivity.The first pressure sensitivity unit 751a shapes are also Can be polyline shaped (such as the first pressure sensitivity unit 751b in Fig. 6 B), convoluted or its His shape such as irregular.First pressure sensitivity unit 751a and/or the second pressure sensitivity unit size are most It is good to be less than or equal to 1 square centimeter, to preferable pressure detection density can be obtained.
More particularly, when the directionality that the first pressure sensitivity unit 751a is used Pressure-strain pressure sensitivity material, the directionality pressure-strain pressure sensitivity material have direction special Property:In some or multiple specific directions occur strain responses (effective strain react, Sliding pressure action towards specific direction is detected for example) when, which can detect accordingly Pressure signal, conversely, being difficult to strain responses in unspecified directions, or occurs During strain responses (invalid strain responses), which can hardly be detected pressure signal Generation or the probability that can be detected of pressure signal it is relatively low.If can adopt in Fig. 6 A With the directionality pressure-strain pressure sensitivity material in Y-direction, then the first pressure sensitivity unit When 751a produces strain responses in the Y direction, produced by the first pressure sensitivity unit 751a Pressure signal can be detected, conversely, in the X direction (in unspecified directions) During generation strain responses, pressure signal is difficult to produce.Having from these material behaviors Beneficial effect is that finer detecting is carried out to pressure direction.
As in Fig. 6 B, the first pressure sensitivity unit 751b adopts 45 ° (only to carry out as a example by 45 ° Illustrate, which can also be that other are arbitrarily angled) direction of effective strain reaction on path Property pressure-strain pressure sensitivity material;Certainly, the first pressure sensitivity unit 751a may also be configured to The directionality pressure-strain pressure sensitivity material of effective strain reaction can occur on few 2 directions (mean value of the pressure signal in desirable multiple directions to calculate total pressure signal). Thus, the first pressure sensitivity unit 751a and its variant embodiment can be used to be configured in it is specific At touch point, for enriching function or raising touch-control sensitivity at single touch point To avoid operational error from bringing signal to judge by accident.
Fourth embodiment of the invention three-dimensional input module (not shown) is implemented with first Three-dimensional input module 10 in example the difference is that only:The three-dimensional input module Between its compound pressure sensitivity layer and upper substrate, an at least thermal insulation layer is selectively set, due to Three-dimensional input module is either applied to the electricity of consumer electronics product or industrial class etc. Sub- product, used as touch operation surface, which is exposed in air the upper substrate, heat Easily it is transferred to inside three-dimensional input module from upper substrate.The thermal insulation layer act as resistance Value heat passes to compound pressure sensitivity layer from upper substrate direction, it is to avoid temperature change is to compound The hot dry effect brought by pressure sensitivity layer.Further, can be below compound pressure sensitivity layer Arrange another thermal insulation layer to prevent the heat produced by display device etc. from affecting pressure signal Detecting precision.
