Description

Resistance type pressure sensor
Technical Field

Background
A touch panel is an input device that allows a user to input information through physical contact with the panel device. Touch panels are commonly used as input devices for various products, such as home appliances, televisions, notebook computers and monitors, and portable electronic devices, such as notebook computers, electronic books, portable multimedia players, global positioning system navigation units, ultra mobile computers, smart phones, smart watches, tablet computers, and mobile communication terminals.
Most touch panels can sense input when capacitively coupled to a conductive touch implement (e.g., a user's finger) through conductive objects within the sensor. And the position of the sensing point on a two-dimensional plane (i.e., on the x-y plane) is recorded by detecting the capacitance change at the sensing point. But the conventional touch panel cannot detect the magnitude of force (i.e., a sensing input in the z-axis direction) when a user presses. Conventional resistive pressure sensors typically do not have touch sensitive characteristics. The user needs to apply a large pressure to activate the sensor, resulting in a poor user experience.
Another problem found in many touch panel technologies is that they lack the ability to track multiple points of contact simultaneously. The most common technique for multi-touch systems is the projected capacitance method. However, the projected capacitance method has some significant limitations. For example, it cannot detect touch input from a non-conductive object (e.g., a plastic pen).

In one pressure-sensitive cell of this embodiment the first particles 4 and the second particles 6 are arranged at equal heights.
The conductive paths of the first particles 4 and the second particles 6 have different resistances. In the absence of an applied external force, the first particles 4 and the second particles 6 each have an insulating gap therebetween, and the detectable resistance between the two electrode layers is infinite. The pressing force base plate, the higher electrically conductive passageway of resistance can realize the switching on of upper and lower electrode layer under dabbing, forms closed circuit between two electrode layers, can detect certain resistance. When the pressing force is increased, the conductive channels with lower resistance are sequentially conducted up and down. As the number of conducting channels increases, the detectable resistance between the two electrode layers decreases. The conductive path resistance can be distributed according to a certain rule or randomly by taking the area where the conductive paths in the upper electrode layer and the lower electrode layer intersect as a unit. The resistance between the upper electrode layer and the lower electrode layer under different pressures can be adjusted by adjusting the resistance of the conductive channel, so that pressure sensing is realized.

The pressure substrate is pressed, the higher conductive channel can realize the conduction of the upper electrode layer and the lower electrode layer under the light touch, a closed loop is formed between the two electrode layers, and a certain resistance can be detected. When the pressing force is increased, the shorter conductive channels are sequentially conducted up and down. As the number of conducting channels increases, the detectable resistance between the two electrode layers decreases. The area where the conducting paths in the upper electrode layer and the lower electrode layer are intersected is taken as a unit, and the height distribution of the conducting paths along the z axis can be distributed according to a certain rule or can be randomly distributed. The conductive channel which is connected up and down under different pressures can be adjusted by adjusting the height of the conductive channel along the z axis, so that pressure sensing is realized.
The third embodiment of the present invention is shown in fig. 7:

In the case where no external force is applied, the first particles 4 and the second particles 6 each have an insulating gap therebetween, and the resistance detectable between the two electrode layers is infinite. When the pressure substrate is pressed, the conductive channel which is most easily contacted can realize the conduction of the upper electrode layer and the lower electrode layer under the light touch, a closed loop is formed between the two electrode layers, and a certain resistance can be detected. When the pressing force is increased, the conduction channels with higher contact difficulty are conducted up and down successively. As the number of conducting channels increases, the detectable resistance between the two electrode layers decreases. The difficulty degree of the up-down contact of the conductive channels can be adjusted by controlling the contact area between the upper conductive channel and the lower conductive channel, the area where the conductive paths in the upper electrode layer and the lower electrode layer intersect is taken as a unit, and the difficulty degree of the up-down contact of the conductive channels can be distributed according to a certain rule or can be distributed randomly. The resistance between the upper electrode layer and the lower electrode layer under different pressures can be adjusted by adjusting the difficulty of the upper-lower contact of the conductive channel, so that the pressure sensing is realized.
The fourth embodiment of the present invention is shown in fig. 8:

In the absence of an applied external force, the first particles 4 and the second particles 6 each have an insulating gap therebetween, and the detectable resistance between the two electrode layers is infinite. When the pressure substrate is pressed, the conduction of the upper electrode layer and the lower electrode layer can be realized by the conductive channel around the elastic dielectric material with the minimum modulus (the softest) under the condition of light touch, a closed loop is formed between the two electrode layers, and a certain resistance can be detected. As the force of the press increases, the conductive paths around the higher modulus (stiffer) elastomeric dielectric material conduct up and down in succession. As the number of conducting channels increases, the detectable resistance between the two electrode layers decreases. Adjusting the modulus distribution of the elastic dielectric material can be accomplished by, but is not limited to, controlling the degree of polymerization of the elastic dielectric material in different regions. The area where the conducting paths in the upper electrode layer and the lower electrode layer intersect is taken as a unit, and the modulus change of the elastic dielectric material can be distributed according to a certain rule or can be randomly distributed. By adjusting the modulus change of the elastic dielectric material, the resistance between the upper electrode layer and the lower electrode layer under different pressures can be adjusted, thereby realizing pressure sensing.
