Therefore, the directional terminology used is for the purpose of illustration and not limitation.

Referring to FIG. 2 , the notebook computer touch structure 100 of the present embodiment mainly includes an upper cover 110 , a touch panel module 120 , a limiting module 130 , and a lower cover 140 .

As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the upper cover 110 has a limiting module mounting hole 111 and a plurality of bumps 112. Here, the plurality of bumps 112 are formed in the limiting module mounting holes 111.

As shown in FIG. 2, FIG. 6 and FIG. 8, the touch panel module 120 is disposed on the upper cover 110, and the touch panel module 120 has an elastic actuator 121. Here, the position of the elastic actuator 121 is the position corresponding to the limiting module mounting hole 111 of the upper cover 110.

As shown in FIG. 2, FIG. 6 and FIG. 8, the limiting module 130 is disposed in the limiting module mounting hole 111 of the upper cover 110, and the limiting module 130 is abutted against the touchpad module. The elastic actuator 121 of the group 120. In more detail, as shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, the limiting module 130 has a socket 131, an elastic member 132 and a cover 133.

As shown in Fig. 2, Fig. 6, and Fig. 8, the socket 131 is rotated. The method is disposed in the limiting module mounting hole 111 of the upper cover 110. Here, as shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, the socket 131 has a plurality of protruding walls 131a, a plurality of resisting portions 131b, and an engaging hole 131c. It should be noted that when the socket 131 is disposed in the limiting module mounting hole 111 of the upper cover 110, the plurality of bumps 112 of the upper cover 110 interfere with the plurality of protruding walls 131a of the socket 131, such as the 5A. The figure shows. In addition, as shown in FIG. 5B, when the socket 131 is disposed in the limiting module mounting hole 111 of the upper cover 110, the plurality of resisting portions 131b of the socket 131 abut against a bottom surface 113 of the upper cover 110. It can be used to fix the horizontal position of the socket 131 relative to the upper cover 110.

As shown in FIG. 4A, FIG. 4B, FIG. 6 and FIG. 8 , the cover 133 is disposed on the socket 131 , and the cover 133 is a resilient actuator 121 abutting the touch panel module 120 . . In other words, the limiting module 130 is abutted against the elastic actuator 121 of the touch panel module 120 by the cover 133 thereof.

As shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, the elastic member 132 abuts between the socket 131 and the lid 133. It should be noted that the elastic modulus of the elastic member 132 is smaller than the elastic modulus of the elastic actuator 121 of the touch panel module 120, that is, the elastic force provided by the elastic member 132 is smaller than the elastic force provided by the elastic actuator 121. Further, in the present embodiment, the elastic member 132 may be in the form of a spring.

As shown in FIGS. 2, 6, and 8, the lower cover 140 is coupled to the upper cover 110. Here, the limiting module 130 is disposed between the touch panel module 120 and the lower cover 140.

As described above, in the assembly of the notebook computer touch structure 100, the limiting module 130 is mounted in the limiting module mounting hole 111 of the upper cover 110. As shown in FIG. 5A, FIG. 5B and FIG. 6 , the cover 133 of the limiting module 130 first gently touches the elastic actuator 121 of the touch panel module 120 . At this time, since the elastic force provided by the elastic member 132 of the limiting module 130 is smaller than the elastic force provided by the elastic actuator 121 of the touch panel module 120, the elastic actuator 121 of the touch panel module 120 is not Oppressive action.

Then, when the socket 131 of the limiting module 130 is rotated (for example, an operator can use a cross screwdriver or other rotating tool to engage with the engaging hole 131c of the socket 131, and thereby rotate the socket 131) As shown in FIG. 7A, FIG. 7B and FIG. 8, the plurality of bumps 112 of the upper cover 110 respectively press the plurality of protrusion walls 131a of the socket 131. At this time, the plurality of protruding walls 131a are deformed by the pressing of the plurality of bumps 112, and thus the cover 133 of the limiting module 130 is pressed against. Here, the cover 133 of the limiting module 130 cannot move up and down, but still gently resists the elastic actuator 121 of the touch panel module 120. At this point, the assembly of the notebook touch structure 100 is completed.

As described above, since the cover 133 of the limiting module 130 is always held against the elastic actuator 121 of the touch panel module 120, the elastic actuator 121 and the upper cover 110 of the touch panel module 120 are limited. There is no assembly gap between the bit modules 130. Therefore, the phenomenon of the movable stroke of the elastic actuator 121 of the touch panel module 120 can be effectively avoided.

Although the present invention has been disclosed in its preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention, and it is possible to make some modifications and refinements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. The scope of the invention is defined by the scope of the appended claims.
