    摘要: A force/displacement touch device, this invention employs a base-plane 32 and flexible mounting material to suspend, or “float,” a non-rigidly mounted touch-plane 12, and uses sensors at each mounting point 22 to measure Z-axis deflection of the floating touch-plane 12. The system adapts existing planes in typical LCD assemblies to implement touch screens. This floating touch detection system provides an accurate, sensitive, compact and low-cost solution. It mitigates XY friction to improve detection of Z-forces. This approach provides latitude in locating sensors 34, allows for additional mid-plane sensors, enables greater accuracy and resolution, and adds features such as “multi-touch” sensitivity. This touch system is defined as a unique and novel ‘floating’ co-planar assembly of a touch-plane 12 to a base-plane 32, which uses a flexible material 22 or medium to define a consistent resting air gap, and then senses and measures any deflection from the co-planar resting position, using any among a broad variety of sensor types.

    摘要: A structure for mounting a liquid crystal display (LCD) in a portable computer and a method for making the mounting structure are described. The mounting structure absorbs the shocks associated with day-to-day handling of the portable computer including occasional dropping or compressing and thereby protects the LCD from damage. The mounting structure consists of resilient shock absorbers mounted along the edges or at the corners of the LCD and glass assembly which are sealed with the LCD glass and circuitry behind a transparent overlay while under compression. The sealed mounting structure acts as a suspension system which allows the LCD glass to float along a single plane only. Any shocks due to dropping, compressing, bending or deflecting are absorbed by the shock absorbers and the LCD remains unaffected. The mounting structure may be evacuated and hermetically sealed, which provides protection to the LCD glass and circuitry from humidity, dust and other contaminates as well.

    摘要: Lead frames for integrated circuit packaging are partly fabricated using laser machining to form the very small diameter (0.005 to 0.010 diameter) holes in the lead frames which are later used for epoxy adhesive penetration. A high power Nd:YAG laser provides a laser beam which is moved and focused by a control unit onto the surface of a continuous stock strip in order is to drill the epoxy holes at the desired locations. A similar apparatus, but using a copper vapor laser, can trim very fine pitch (0.005 inch) leads for the lead frames. The remaining parts of the lead frames, which involve larger sized elements, are formed conventionally by using stamping or etching. By controlling the laser operating parameters in terms of laser power, pulse duration and pulse frequency and by control of the location of the laser beam by deflecting galvanometers, very precise cutting and drilling can be accomplished, with accuracy down to 0.00005 inch or less. Tooling costs are thereby reduced and in addition new types of lead frames with very closely spaced lead tips can be fabricated that cannot be fabricated using conventional processes.

    摘要: A method for mounting a liquid crystal (LCD) display in a portable computer. In one embodiment, the method includes the steps of mounting resilient shock mounts on the edges of the LCD assembly, installing the LCD assembly and shock mounts into a housing, placing a horizontal plate into the housing over the LCD assembly and shock mounts (wherein the horizontal plate covers the shock mounts), and joining the horizontal plate to the housing to form the mounting structure. The shock mounts are compressed during the joining step. The LCD assembly is supported by the forces exerted by the housing and horizontal plate against the shock mounts, and is not directly connected to the housing or the horizontal plate.
