Resistive touch panel
First Claim
1. A resistive touch panel, comprising:
- a lower panel module comprising;
a substrate having a top surface;
a lower conducting layer formed on the top surface of the substrate and having a top surface; and
a plurality of electrodes mounted on edges of the top surface of the lower conducting layer;
an upper panel module adhered to the lower panel module comprising;
a protective film having a bottom surface;
an upper conducting layer formed on the bottom surface of the protective film and having a bottom surface;
a pattern layer printed on the bottom surface of the upper conducting layer and having a bottom surface;
an ink electrode mounted on edges of the bottom surface of the upper conducting layer; and
an insulation layer formed on the bottom surface of the upper conducting layer to cover and isolate the ink electrode;
a flexible circuit board having two ends, one of which is electronically connected with the electrodes of the upper and lower conducting layers; and
a separating layer formed between the top surface of the lower conducting layer and the lower surface of the upper conducting layer.

Abstract
A resistive touch panel has a lower panel module and an upper panel module, an adhesive layer, a separating layer and a flexible circuit board. The lower panel module has a substrate, a lower conducting layer and a plurality of electrodes. The upper panel module has a protective film, an upper conducting layer, a pattern layer, an ink electrode mounted to electrically connect with the flexible circuit board, and an insulation layer. One end of the flexible circuit board and the separating layer are sandwiched between the top surface of the lower conducting layer and the top surface of the upper conducting layer. Given the foregoing structure, the components and steps for fabricating the resistive touch panel can be reduced since the pattern layer is directly printed on the bottom surface of the upper conducting layer. Therefore, fabricating yields are increased.
