1. A touch input device of a resistance film system, the touch input device comprising:
- an upper electrode film provided with an upper electrode made of a transparent conductive film formed on a lower surface of a transparent insulating film;
a lower electrode film provided with a lower electrode made of a transparent conductive film formed on an upper surface of a transparent insulating film, wherein the upper electrode and the lower electrode are opposed to each other with insulating spacers interposed therebetween;
a plastic supporting plate made from a polycarbonate resin or an acrylic resin, the plastic supporting plate being bonded to an entire lower surface of the lower electrode film, with an adhesive material being interposed therebetween; and
a water-vapor barrier film, made of a cyclo-olefin polymer film or a cyclo-olefin copolymer film, for improving a moisture-resistant property of the plastic supporting plate, the water-vapor barrier film being positioned on the lower surface of the plastic supporting plate,wherein the water-vapor barrier film further comprises a protective layer or a slit formed on an area other than a visible area of the water-vapor barrier film, and wherein cracking of the water-vapor barrier film is reduced or prevented.

Abstract
A touch input device of a resistance film system having a structure in which a plastic supporting plate (10), made from a polycarbonate resin or an acrylic resin, is bonded to an entire lower surface of a lower electrode film (7). An adhesive material (10g) is interposed between the lower electrode film and the plastic supporting plate. Also, a water-vapor barrier film (11), which is superior in moisture dimensional stability, is bonded with an adhesive material (11g) to the entire surface of the plastic supporting plate on the side opposite to the surface that is bonded to the lower electrode film.
