Method and apparatus for providing a touch screen
First Claim
1. A tactile designation device for continuous capacitance detection comprising a glass plate covered with a metallic deposit on its entire surface, said tactile designation device is supported by flexible strips, by means of supply to said metallic surface and by strain gauges set up on said strips in order to measure flexing of said strips, said tactile designation device characterized by the fact that said strips support said plate from a printed circuit of assembly, each of said strips carrying at least one conducting part, each of said strips having a first end that is in contact with a supply track formed on said printed circuit, each of said strips having a second end that is in contact with attachment devices of said plate on said strip that is electronically conducting and in contact with said metallized surface.

Abstract
A process and device for providing and fixing a captor of activation detection. The present invention discloses a tactile designation device for continuous capacitance detection comprising a glass plate covered by a metallic deposit on its entire surface and supported by flexible strips, means of supply of the metallized surface, and strain gauges mounted on top of the strips in order to measure their flexing. According to the present invention, the strips support the plate from a printed circuit of assembly. Each strip comprises at least one conducting part in contact, at one of its ends, with a supply track formed by the printed circuit, and at its other end, with the attachment devices of the plate on the strip that is electrically conducting and in contact with the metallized surface.
