- FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the touch panel 102 and the vibration unit 210a when the electronic device 100 in FIG. 2 is cut along A-A ′.
- the vibration part 210b also has the same structure.
- the vibration part 210 a is bonded with an adhesive material 250 such as an epoxy adhesive, a UV curable resin, or a double-sided tape so that the mounting surface 212 b faces the back surface 102 b of the touch panel 102.
- an insulating material 250 is used.
- the adhesive material 250 Since it is necessary to efficiently transmit the vibration of the vibration part 210a to the touch panel 102, the adhesive material 250 generally has high rigidity. However, if the rigidity is too high, distortion is likely to occur due to a difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the vibration unit 210 and the touch panel 102 at high temperatures and low sounds. For this reason, the adhesive member 250 has a rigidity smaller than that of the vibration part 210 a and the touch panel 102.

- the reference electrode 216 is electrically connected to the third terminal G through the third external electrode 215c.
- the piezoelectric body 212 is made of a piezoelectric material such as lead titanate, lead zirconate titanate, or lithium niobate.
- the first external electrode 215a and the second external electrode 215b are formed using a metal such as silver, palladium, copper, nickel, or a composite containing these metals by a method such as printing, sputtering, welding, metallicon, or the like. .
- a part of the first external electrode 215a and the second external electrode 215b may be formed also on the mounting surface 212b side.
- An insulating layer 251 is previously formed on the vibrating portion 210a so as to cover the reference electrode 216 so that the first external electrode 215a and the second external electrode 215b formed on the mounting surface 212b side do not come into contact with the touch panel 102a. May be.
- the insulator layer 251 can be made of a resin such as an epoxy resin or an acrylic resin, or a leading edge material such as glass.
- the vibration part 210a on which the insulator layer 251 is formed is bonded to the touch panel with an adhesive material 250.
- the insulating layer 251 is not necessarily required when the influence of electromagnetic noise is small due to the sensing method of the touch panel 102a.
- the first terminal P, the second terminal N, and the third terminal G of the vibration unit 210a are electrically connected to the drive unit 301, respectively.
- the vibrating part 210a By applying a voltage to the piezoelectric element 212 through the first terminal P and the second terminal N, the vibrating part 210a expands and contracts according to the electric field due to the voltage. In general, it is necessary to apply a high voltage in order to expand and contract the piezoelectric body. However, the touch panel 102 is assumed to be touched by an operator with a finger or the like, and a very high voltage cannot be applied. For this reason, the vibration unit 210a has a plurality of first internal electrodes 214a and a plurality of second internal electrodes 214b alternately with the piezoelectric material interposed therebetween so that a sufficiently strong electric field can be applied to the piezoelectric material even at a low voltage. Has a laminated structure. Thereby, the space
- the reference electrode 216 is located between the vibration unit 210 a and the touch panel 102.
- the reference electrode 216 is formed on the surface on the touch panel 102 side of the vibrating portions 210a and 210b or the internal electrode closest to the touch panel 102.
- the reference electrode 216 is formed on the surface of the vibration part 210a.
- the reference electrode 216 may be separate from the vibration part 210a, and may be formed of a metal foil, for example.
- the thickness of the piezoelectric body is a piezoelectric layer positioned on the outermost side than the thickness t i of the piezoelectric body layer sandwiched between the first internal electrode 214a and the second internal electrode 214b.
- the body layer thickness t o may be larger.
- FIGS. 5A and 5B show examples of voltage waveforms output by the drive unit 301.
- FIG. A voltage having a waveform shown in FIG. 5A is applied to the first terminal P, and a voltage having a waveform shown in FIG. 5B is applied to the second terminal N.
- the phases of these two voltages are reversed from each other. Since the voltage of the difference between the two voltages is applied to each layer of the piezoelectric body 212 of the vibration unit 210a, a voltage twice as large as each voltage is applied to each layer of the piezoelectric body 212 as shown in FIG. Applied.
- a reference potential for example, a ground potential voltage is applied to the third terminal G. As a result, the reference electrode 216 is maintained at the ground potential voltage, and noise generation on the touch panel 102 can be suppressed.
- FIG. 6A is a plan view of the touch panel 102 supported on the base 201 by the support portion 202, and FIG. 6B shows a B-B ′ cross section in FIG.
- the width Wa of the first region 202a in the direction (Y direction) perpendicular to the longitudinal direction on the surface parallel to the base 201 is smaller than the width Wb of the second region 202b.
- the first region 202a and the second region 202b are composed of the same member. For this reason, the first region 202a having a smaller width is less rigid than the second region 202b.
- Rigidity refers to the ease of compression / extension in the direction perpendicular to the main surface 102a and the back surface 102b of the touch panel 102.
- Touch panel 102 is vibrated by vibrating portions 210a and 210b. If the shape, size, material, fixing method of the panel 102 and the vibration frequency, vibration amplitude, vibration phase, etc. of the vibration parts 210a and 210b are appropriately selected, the touch panel 102 vibrates with a predetermined standing wave. In order to vibrate the entire touch panel 102 as uniformly as possible, the standing wave is vibrated in a second or higher order vibration mode. In the high-order vibration mode, a vibration bell having a large amplitude is generated at two or more specific locations, and a node having a small vibration amplitude is generated at one or more specific locations other than the end of the touch panel 102. .
- a region near the vibration node is formed by the first region 202a, and the other region is formed by the second region 202b.
- the first region 202a is arranged at the position of at least one standing wave node.
- the touch panel 102 receives input from the operator. For example, when the operator touches the surface 102a of the touch panel 102 with a finger, the touch panel outputs information related to the finger contact and the position of the contact on the surface 102a to the control unit 303.
- the control unit 303 receives an output from the touch panel 102 and outputs a command to vibrate the vibration units 210 a and 210 b to the drive unit 301. Thereby, the drive part 301 vibrates the vibration parts 210a and 210b, and the touch panel 102 vibrates. The operator recognizes that the operator's input to the touch panel 102 has been accepted by the vibration of the touch panel 102 by a tactile sensation felt by the fingers.
- the control unit 303 Based on the information on the contact position, the control unit 303 outputs a command to the drive unit 301 so that the vibration conditions such as the amplitude of vibration, the vibration pattern, and the vibration mode of the vibration units 210a and 210b differ according to the contact position. May be. Thereby, the operator can recognize the difference in the position where the finger touches.
- the control unit 303 also performs predetermined processing in the electronic device 100, for example. For example, a process for temporarily stopping a moving image displayed on the display unit, a process for fast-forwarding a moving image, a process for changing the audio size of the moving image, and the like are performed according to the position touched by a finger.
