Multi-layer coversheet for saw touch panel
First Claim
1. A touch panel, comprising:
- a surface acoustic wave propagating substrate having top and bottom surfaces; and
a multi-layer coversheet configured to be positioned over the substrate, the coversheet comprising;
a load-spreading layer having top and bottom surfaces, the top surface configured to receive touch input from an object;
a compliant layer having top and bottom surfaces, the top surface of the compliant layer configured to be coupled to the bottom surface of the load-spreading layer; and
an anti-sticking layer having top and bottom surfaces, the top surface of the anti-sticking layer configured to be coupled to the bottom surface of the compliant layer, the bottom surface of the anti-sticking layer configured to be positioned proximate to the top surface of the substrate.

Abstract
A touch panel includes a surface acoustic wave propagating substrate having top and bottom surfaces and a multi-layer coversheet that is positioned over the substrate. The coversheet includes a load-spreading layer, a compliant layer and an anti-sticking layer. The load-spreading layer has top and bottom surfaces, and the top surface receives touch input from an object. The compliant layer has top and bottom surfaces and the top surface of the compliant layer is coupled to the bottom surface of the load-spreading layer. The anti-sticking layer has top and bottom surfaces and the top surface of the anti-sticking layer is coupled to the bottom surface of the compliant layer. The bottom surface of the anti-sticking layer is positioned proximate to the top surface of the substrate.
