FIG. 2 is a partially enlarged schematic view of the touch panel of FIG. 1. FIG. Please also refer to Figure 1 As shown in FIG. 2 , the touch panel 100 includes a substrate 110 , a touch sensing array 120 , a plurality of connecting lines 130 , a plurality of extending portions 140 , a first static electricity protection line 150 , and a second static electricity protection line 160 . The substrate 110 is, for example, a glass substrate or a plastic substrate. The substrate 110 has an active area 110a and a peripheral area 110b. The touch sensing array 120 is disposed in the active area 110a. A plurality of connecting lines 130 and a plurality of extending portions 140 are disposed in the peripheral area 110b. As shown in FIG. 1 , in the embodiment, the extending portions 140 are arranged along the periphery of the active region 110 a , and one end of each connecting line 130 is connected to the touch sensing array 120 by a corresponding extending portion 140 . The first static electricity protection line 150 is disposed in the peripheral region 110b and is located between the outermost connecting line 131 and the edge of the corresponding substrate 110.

在本實施例中,觸控面板100包括的一側包括兩條靜電防護線路150、160。利用兩條靜電防護線路的設計,便可在維持觸控面板100的靜電防護效果的前提下,分別減少各靜電防護線路150、160的寬度,以有效縮減觸控面板100的邊框尺寸。具體而言,在單條靜電防護線路的設計下,需要考慮阻抗問題,因此靜電防護線路有最小寬度的限制。當觸控面板的靜電防護線路為分成兩條的設計,便可以在總寬度相同的前提下,分別降低各靜電防護線路的寬度。此外,本實施例的第二靜電防護線路160與延伸部140在基板110上相互交疊,兩者重疊的部分可更進一步 使縮減觸控面板100的邊框尺寸。或者說,本實施例藉由將第二靜電防護線路160與延伸部140交疊,以有效利用原本延伸部140在基板110上佔用的空間。In this embodiment, the touch panel 100 includes one side including two static protection lines 150 and 160. With the design of the two ESD protection lines, the width of each ESD protection line 150, 160 can be reduced to maintain the frame size of the touch panel 100 under the premise of maintaining the electrostatic protection effect of the touch panel 100. Specifically, in the design of a single ESD protection line, the impedance problem needs to be considered, so the ESD protection line has a minimum width limit.

In addition, the second static electricity protection line 160 and the extension portion 140 of the embodiment overlap each other on the substrate 110, and the overlapping portions thereof can further The frame size of the touch panel 100 is reduced. In other words, the present embodiment effectively utilizes the space occupied by the original extension portion 140 on the substrate 110 by overlapping the second static electricity protection line 160 with the extension portion 140.

Referring to FIG. 7, the embodiment of FIG. 7 is substantially similar to the embodiment of FIG. 6. The difference between the two is mainly because the electrical connection between the static protection lines of the embodiment of FIG. 7 is different from that of the embodiment of FIG. . As shown in FIG. 7 , the touch panel 300 further includes a first bridge line 310 and a second bridge line 320 . The first bridge wire 310 connects one end of the first static electricity protection line 351 on one side 111 of the substrate 110 and one end of the second static electricity protection line 361 located on the side 111. The second bridge line 320 connects one end of the first ESD line 352 on the other side 112 of the substrate and one end of the second ESD line 362 on the side 112. In this embodiment, the first static electricity protection circuit 351 is electrically connected to the second static electricity protection circuit 361, and the first static electricity prevention The protection circuit 352 is electrically connected to the second static protection circuit 362, and the electrostatic protection effect of the touch panel 200 can be adjusted, for example, the impedance is reduced. In addition, in the connection mode, the second ESD protection line 361 and the second ESD protection line 362 have a configuration space S, and other components of the touch panel 300 can be disposed in the configuration space S.
綜上所述,本發明的觸控面板包括兩條靜電防護線路,利用兩條靜電防護線路的設計,便可在維持觸控面板的靜電防護功能的前提下,分別減少各靜電防護線路的寬度,以有效縮減觸控面板的邊框尺寸。此外,本申請更可讓其中一條靜電防護線路與延伸部在基板上相互交疊,以有效利用原本延伸部在基板上佔用的空間。再者,觸控面板的兩條防護線路的其中一條靜電防護線路可電性連接至另一條靜電防護線路以增加觸控面板的靜電防護效果。並且,觸控面板的連接線、靜電防護線路與延伸部所在的膜層的相對位置可根據材料的不同而改變。如此可使觸控面板的更兼具有良好的設計彈性。In summary, the touch panel of the present invention includes two electrostatic protection lines, and the design of the two electrostatic protection lines can reduce the width of each electrostatic protection line under the premise of maintaining the electrostatic protection function of the touch panel. To effectively reduce the size of the border of the touch panel. In addition, the present application further allows one of the ESD lines and the extension portions to overlap each other on the substrate to effectively utilize the space occupied by the original extension portion on the substrate. Furthermore, one of the two protection lines of the touch panel can be electrically connected to another ESD protection line to increase the electrostatic protection effect of the touch panel. Moreover, the relative position of the connection line of the touch panel, the electrostatic protection line, and the film layer where the extension portion is located may vary depending on the material. In this way, the touch panel can be further improved in design flexibility.
