According to the material properties and the constraint conditions, determining the bending vibration equation of the uniform-section touch beam as follows:
when the vibration is free, f (x, t) is 0, and the equation separation variable is written as:
y(x,t)=Y(x)q(t) (2)
wherein the general solution for the mode shape function Y (x) is:
A1cosβx+A2sinβx+A3chβx+A4shβx (3)

The frequency equation obtained by substituting the general solution (3) is as follows:
cos(βL)ch(βL)-1=0 (4)

Y(x)=cosβix+chβix+ηi(sinβix+shβix) (5)
wherein the content of the first and second substances,
and the intrinsic vibration modes of all orders of the touch beams obtained by the method are combined with actual requirements to optimize the size of each touch beam, so that the size of the touch beam is determined. The size optimization method comprises the following steps: the size of the touch beam is generally determined according to the size of the whole device, and considering that the higher the natural frequency is, the shorter the generated wavelength is, if the too short wavelength is not favorable for the sticking of the piezoelectric ceramic sheet 9 in the following step, the length of the piezoelectric ceramic sheet 9 should be less than half wavelength, so that it is necessary to use the half wavelength of the highest vibration mode that can be used as much as possible less than the length of the piezoelectric ceramic sheet 9 to be used. The size of the beam is finally determined to be 145mm multiplied by 5mm multiplied by 4mm through design;
