    摘要: A method and apparatus for forming a membrane switch of the type having a flexible membrane, a substrate, first and second conductors formed on the membrane and substrate and spacing means disposed between the first and second conductors. The spacing means is applied to either the membrane or substrate in a uniform pattern of individual spacer areas. The spacer areas are applied in liquid form which is cured or allowed to dry. The pattern of spacer areas can be applied without regard to the location of the conductors. The size, spacing and thickness of the spacer areas allow contact between aligned first and second conductors when the exterior of the membrane is subjected to pressure. Thus the same pattern of spacer areas can be used with any arrangement of conductors.

    摘要: A membrane switch (10) is disclosed having a bottom membrane (12) with an upper conductive surface (16), a top membrane (14) with a lower conductive surface (18), and an intermediate spacer (20) disposed therebetween. The intermediate spacer includes a central aperture (24) and is formed of an intermediate substrate (21) having a lower surface (26) and an upper surface (28). First y-axis electrodes (30A, 30B) including first contact portions (31A, 31B) and second x-axis electrodes (34A, 34B) including second contact portions (38A, 38B) are both formed on the upper surface of the intermediate substrate. The intermediate spacer further includes an upper adhesive layer (45) including predefined first apertures (50) adapted to overlie the first contact portions of the y-axis electrodes and predefined second apertures (47) adapted to overlie the second contact portions of the x-axis electrodes, and a lower adhesive layer (43). Preferably after the intermediate spacer is assembled, at least one hole (39) is defined through each of the first contact portions, extending through the intermediate substrate and the lower adhesive layer. Then conductive epoxy material (41) is poured into the first aperture and the hole so as to provide an electrical conduction path between the first contact portion of the y-axis electrode and the lower adhesive layer. Similarly, conductive epoxy material is poured into the second aperture predefined through the upper adhesive layer so as to provide an electrical conduction path between the second contact portion of the x-axis electrode and the upper adhesive layer. When the intermediate spacer thus constructed is secured between the bottom and top membranes, the y-axis and x-axis electrodes are in electrical contact with the bottom and top membranes, respectively.

    摘要: In a membrane-type touch panel including a pair of circuit layers having facing conductive circuit patterns normally separated by spacers defining voids through which regions of the circuit patterns can move to effect actuation, a series of projections are provided which, upon actuation, are adapted to act inwardly upon the outer surface of at least one of the two circuit layers at regions aligned with corresponding voids to reduce the required actuation force or to allow a reduction in the size of the spacer voids to reduce the possibility of false actuations.
