Abstract

PURPOSE:To avoid the fatigue deterioration of a specific panel by shifting totally the position of an input key train on a touch panel every prescribed touch executing frequency and therefore avoiding the concentration of the stress applied to the touch panel into a specific area. CONSTITUTION:Two types of touch panel key position modes 7a and 7b, for example, are prepared as shown by (A) in the figures. These two modes are switched to each other for each fixed transaction so that the parts receiving the stresses are different as shown by 9 and 10. In other words, the pushing frequency of an input key 6 is counted by a menu position coordinate converting part 5. Then the position of a touch panel input key is moved on a touch panel 2 when said key touch frequency reaches a fixed level.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention (a) Industrial Application Field The present invention relates to a display device having a touch panel such as an automatic teller machine such as an automatic teller machine used in banking, and more specifically, The present invention relates to a display device that allows a customer to input a touch signal by pressing an input key displayed at a menu selection position on a touch panel according to information displayed on a display.

(b) Conventional technology A display device that uses a display such as a CRT or a liquid crystal plasma display to guide and display necessary items, and allows the customer to input a selection signal corresponding to the required items using a touch panel is shown in Figure 4. As shown in FIG. The input keys 24 are displayed, and by selectively pressing down on these input keys, a touch signal (in this case, a password) is input.

(c) Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, since the menu selection position 25 displayed on the touch panel 22 is always fixed at a fixed position as shown in FIG. As a result, stress is concentrated only on a specific location indicated by reference numeral 26 in FIG. 5B, resulting in severe accumulation of fatigue, resulting in a problem that the life of the touch panel 22 is shortened.

(d) Means for Solving the Problems This invention features a display device having a touch panel equipped with a menu position coordinate conversion unit that moves the menu selection position displayed on the touch panel every predetermined number of times of touch execution. shall be.

(e) Effect According to the present invention, the stress exerted on the touch panel by pressing down the input key at the menu selection position is reduced by shifting the position of the input key row on the touch panel as a whole every predetermined number of times the touch is executed. , it is possible to prevent concentration from being concentrated on a specific part of the touch panel.

(f) Effects of the Invention Accordingly, it is possible to avoid fatigue deterioration of specific parts of the touch panel due to stress concentration, and extend the life of the touch panel.

(g) Examples An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a block circuit of a display device having a touch panel. A touch panel 2 is superimposed on the display surface of a display device 1 such as a CRT, liquid crystal, or plasma display, and the display device 1 is controlled by a display controller 3. On the other hand, the touch panel 2 is controlled by a touch panel controller 4.

For the above-mentioned display controller 3 and touch panel controller 4, the menu position 'r! , and a coordinate transformation unit 5 are connected to each other. This menu position coordinate conversion unit 5 counts the number of touches (number of transactions) of pressing down the menu selection position of the touch panel 2, that is, the input key 6 of the touch panel input key position. both controllers 3, so as to move the touch panel input key position on the touch panel 2 when the number reaches a predetermined value;
The display device 1 and the touch panel 2 are controlled via 4.

That is, as shown in A in FIG. 2, the touch panel input key position 7
When the number of touches (number of transactions) reaches the set number from a state in which a transaction is being made with the person's key 6... being displayed at the dashed line position, the touch panel input key position 7b is moved to the solid line. Move the entire unit so that the input key 6 is displayed at the position. 8 is a device control unit as a whole.

Next, the operation of the circuit shown in FIG. 1 will be explained with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.

The flowchart in FIG. 3 is an example in which the touch panel input key position mode has two types, a broken line position 7a and a solid line position 7b, as shown in FIG. 2A, and the mode is switched alternately every certain number of transactions. It shows.

That is, as the touch panel system starts operating, the number of transactions is counted once, and the touch panel input key position is switched from 7a to 7b or from 7b to 7a, and the position of the input key 6 is varied (step nl,
n2. n3).

After that, repeat transactions in that state until the set number of transactions n
When the first transaction is started, the touch panel input key position is switched to the opposite position from the above, and from the nth transaction onwards, transactions are performed using the new touch panel input key position (step n4). n5.n6).

Then, count again from the next transaction, step n8
When the number of transactions reaches 2n before the system stops operating, the process moves to step n3 and the touch panel input key positions are switched again.

If this is done, the touch panel 2 will receive stress in two places9.1 as shown in FIG. 2B.
It is possible to avoid concentration of stress in one place and prevent fatigue deterioration of the touch panel 2.

It goes without saying that there may be two or more types of touch panel input key position modes as shown in FIG.

In the correspondence between the structure of the present invention and the above-described embodiments, the display device of the present invention corresponds to the display device 1 of the embodiment, and similarly, the touch panel corresponds to the touch panel 2, and the menu position coordinate conversion unit corresponds to the menu position coordinate conversion unit 5, and the menu selection positions are touch panel manual key positions 7a and 7.
Although the input oyster corresponds to the input oyster 6 corresponding to b, the present invention is not limited to the configuration of the above-mentioned embodiment.
