Electronic component protection device

This creation relates to a protection device, especially a protection device that can protect electronic parts from damage and can be combined with analog physical buttons for input.

With the growing maturity of touch panel technology, there are a variety of notebook and e-book reading devices (such as Apple iPAD tablets) or mobile phones that use touch panels instead of traditional physical keyboards. Among them, the commonly used systems of touch panels include resistive systems and capacitive systems.

A resistive system typically includes a sheet of glass covered with a conductive layer and a resistive metal layer separated by a spacer region, and current can flow between the two layers. When the user touches the screen, the conductive layer and the resistive metal layer are in contact, and the change of the electric field is recorded as a contact event, and then the signal is transmitted to the controller for processing. Therefore, the resistive touch panel is utilized. Control by pressing.

Capacitive systems use capacitive sensors. When the user touches the touch panel, a continuous current flows through the sensor, enabling the sensor to accurately store electrons in the horizontal and vertical directions to form a precisely controlled capacitive field. When the finger touches the different positions of the touch panel, the circuit in each corner of the panel calculates the degree of change of the electric field, and then transmits the contact event signal to the controller for processing. Therefore, the user of the capacitive touch panel only needs to touch the finger gently to complete the manipulation action.

At present, the input mode of the touch panel is mostly displayed by the program on the touch panel, and the user can touch the virtual keyboard by touching the virtual keyboard. The symbol is used to enter a job or execute a related command. However, since the conventional touch panel is generally made of a hardened material (for example, glass), the pressing feeling of the virtual keyboard is not good, and if the touch panel is a capacitive system, the user often has finger shielding during the operation. Part of the line of sight troubles, causing input errors.

In addition, the general notebook computer and e-book reading device mainly appeal to portable devices, so that in addition to the user often causes scratches on the surface of the touch panel when inputting data, such electronic devices are more often carried during the carrying process. In the case of panel wear, how to propose a touch keyboard to increase the pressing feel of the virtual keyboard and protect the touch panel is a problem that the touch panel related product manufacturers need to pay attention to.
