41 Input device having double-layer adhesive conductive connecting portions US530867 1990-05-31 US5179460A 1993-01-12 Shoji Hinata; Yohichi Ono; Satoshi Wakabayashi
An input structure for a display device having opposed substrates an electrodes disposed on the inner surfaces of the substrates and a seal about the periphery thereof with a relay electrode crossing the seal to connect the electrodes on the opposed substrate to external circuitry. The electrical connection between the electrodes on the first substrate to the relay electrode is provided by a conductive adhesive electrode and a conductive synthetic resin thin film layer contacting the conductive adhesive electrode, the thin film layer formed of conductive material which is shorter than the conductive material of the conductive adhesive electrode to absorb shock and avoid separation of the electrodes from the opposed substrate.
42 Particulate spacers for inhibiting Newton rings in touch sensitive overlays US780583 1985-09-26 US4696860A 1987-09-29 David L. Epperson
Fine particles, preferably of brown alumina (approximately 96% Al.sub.2 O.sub.3), are disposed between closely spaced and normally parallel surfaces of two adjacent transparent layers, such as are typically found in a touch sensitive overlay (TSO). The particles are preferably of a size within the range 3-100 microns, and are distributed in a density preferably in the range 300-3,000 particles per square inch, so that the larger particles are in simultaneous contact with both the parallel surfaces. Local pressure on a TSO panel with this distribution of particles of non-uniform size allows operation of the panel without the generation of distracting Newton rings between the surfaces contacting the particles. These particles may be conveniently sprayed onto either of the parallel surfaces in suspension with a fluid carrier that evaporates to leave the particles adhering to the sprayed surface.

44 Keyboards incorporating keys pivotable against biased detent means to operate electrical switches US477414 1983-03-21 US4472610A 1984-09-18 Maurice D. Fuller; David B. Joyce
A keyboard, particularly for control of electronics in vehicles, has at least one key mounted in a recess in the keyboard and pivotable about a pivot to press against a shaped portion of a rubber gasket to operate an electrical switch. A display, preferably a multiple character LCD, for labellingthe switch is visible through a transparent member and connected to a p.c.b. by zebra striped members. The display is not obscured by a finger operating the key. The key has a transverse bore in which a compression spring is mounted with balls at the end of the spring to co-operate with stepped generally cylindrical members mounted with their axes perpendicular to the pivot pin and forming detent means to give the key a tactile operation. Preferably the key operates three switches by way of three shaped portions.
45 Means for mounting membrane switches to cathode ray tubes US452586 1982-12-23 US4427861A 1984-01-24 Donald G. Stillie
A membrane switch having mounting means for mounting the switch to a cathode ray tube (CRT) is disclosed. The mounting means is comprised of extensions protruding from the perimeter of the membrane switch, each extension having thereon a patch of a coupled fastening assembly. The fastening assembly is comprised of two separable parts, the inner surfaces of which have a very large number of closely spaced hooking elements of the hook and loop type that engage with each other when the two parts are pressed together. When the switch is aligned against the CRT, the extensions wrap around the perimeter of the CRT. The outer surface of the fastening assembly can then be attached to the sides of the CRT. The mounting means disclosed herein holds the switch securely to the face of the CRT and at the same time permits easy realignment if the switch becomes distorted during use.

48 Display faceplate switch US3641299D 1971-02-10 US3641299A 1972-02-08 MAYER WILLIAM N
A switch having a transparent area and suitable for placing over a video display without obscuring the information displayed beneath the switch. The switch comprises an elastically bendable conducting strip which, when a top transparent member of the switch is pushed, is forced into contact with a conducting area on the top transparent member. The natural elasticity in the bendable strip serves to break the contact between the conducting area and the bendable strip when the switch is released.
49 Depressible diaphragm overlay switch for displays US3560675D 1969-05-26 US3560675A 1971-02-02 KRAKINOWSKI MORRIS; STILLWELL GEORGE R JR
A two layer planar multicontact switch including a first substrate layer having a plurality of parallel conductive lines deposited on the upper surface thereof and a second diaphragm layer located over the substrate layer and having a plurality of parallel conductive lines deposited on the lower surface thereof. The conductive lines on the substrate are normal to the conductive lines on the diaphragm such that a plurality of matrix switch intersections are formed. The conductive lines on the substrate and the diaphragm have insulating material selectively deposited thereon to electrically isolate the upper and lower conductive lines except at the points of intersection. The diaphragm layer may be mechanically depressed at the intersection points to selectively connect the upper lines with the lower lines to form switch closure contacts. The diaphragm and the substrate are formed from transparent material so that the switch can be employed in combination with a visual display.
50 High strength touch panel and method of manufacturing the same US09529060 2000-04-07 US06380497B1 2002-04-30 Takao Hashimoto; Yasuji Kusuda
In a resistance film type touch panel (8), an upper electrode sheet (1) having upper electrodes (111) on one face of a flexible transparent film (9) and a hard coat layer (12) on the other face of the film, and a lower electrode sheet (2) having lower electrodes (121) confronting the upper electrodes on one face of a glass substrate (10) are arranged to face each other over a distance maintained by spacers (13) between the upper electrodes and the lower electrodes. Respective peripheries of the upper electrodes and the lower electrodes confronting the upper electrodes are bonded by an adhesive layer (3), with the transparent film and the hard coat layer being fused at respective end parts thereby constituting a compressive stress layer (10a) at a surface layer part of each side end face of the glass substrate.
51 Analog touch screen with coating for inhibiting increased contact resistance US270215 1994-07-01 US6034335A 2000-03-07 Brian E. Aufderheide; Michael J. Robrecht
Analog resistance touch switches and matrix type touch switches have contacts coated with a very thin film, which in use does not form an appreciable amount of an insulating oxide, to inhibit changes in contact resistance and extend operating life.
52 Data processing terminal with removable keyboard module US479225 1990-02-12 US5153589A 1992-10-06 George Heys, Jr.; Andrew E. Yandora; Philip D. McDowell
A data processing terminal is provided with a keyboard which can be removed to provide access to the interior of the terminal for maintenance and repair of electrical components contained therein. Removal of the keyboard causes the operating circuit for the terminal to be interrupted, thereby eliminating danger of shock to someone working in the interior of the terminal. Assembly of the keyboard to the remainder of the terminal is accomplished largely by means of molded engaging and latching elements, thereby minimizing the effort required for assembly and disassembly.
53 Transparent touch panel switch US57274 1987-06-01 US4786767A 1988-11-22 Bruce Kuhlman
An improved transparent touch panel membrane switch for use and shielding in front of a visual display terminal is disclosed. The switch is made up of a plurality of plastic sheets arrayed substantially parallel to one another in a sandwich configuration. The outermost of the sheets has an antireflective hardcoat. Two adjacent but spaced apart inner sheets provide the electrical contact through transparent low reflectance conductive metal coatings. The switch additionally contains a further inner antireflective transparent electrically conductive coating which provides shielding against the passage of electromagnetic and radio frequency interference through the membrane switch. The layers in this switch all contribute to a relatively low transmittance of back lighting from the visual display terminal but also significantly reduce reflectance such that the overall signal-to-noise ratio is substantially enhanced.
54 Modular touch sensitive data input device US860287 1986-05-02 US4771277A 1988-09-13 Peter F. Barbee; Jack L. Galloway
A touch sensitive data input device is provided for use with the screen of a cathode ray tube. The device has an annular bezel that loosely supports a firm clear backing plate. A rear transparent sheet element that has a coefficient of thermal expansion different from that of the backing plate is loosely retained against the backing plate to avoid deformation induced by differential thermal expansions. A closely spaced apart front transparent element is placed adjacent the rear transparent sheet, their respective adjacent surfaces having mutually orthogonal electrically conductive strips that make local electrical contact when a force is applied to the front element. An annular frame over the front element is secured to the bezel. In one aspect of the invention, a gasket with both sides coated with a resilient bonding material seals the frame to the bezel to protect the zone between the transparent front and rear elements from contamination by environmental pollutants.
55 See-through coordinate graphic input tablet US889088 1986-07-23 US4745240A 1988-05-17 Mikio Furukawa; Yutaka Omori; Klyomichi Ihara
The see-through coordinate input tablet is formed of two oppositely facing elements each made of a transparent substrate provided with fine metal wires running in parallel on the inward surface of the substrate, the running directions on the two substrates being perpendicular to each other. At least either one of the elements is provided with a detecting resistor along a side periphery crossing the end portions of the parallel-running metal wires so that the accuracy and reliability in the detection of the coordinates of the inputted point can be improved.
56 Transparent conductive optical device and a process for the production thereof US658599 1984-10-09 US4585689A 1986-04-29 Tatsuo Ohta; Katsuaki Komatsu
A transparent conductive optical device comprising a transparent conductive layer of a metal oxide on a substrate wherein the degree of oxidation of the transparent conductive layer is differentiated depending on the proximity to the substrate so that the degree of oxidation adjacent to the substrate is higher than the rest of the layer.
57 Membrane touch panel having improved conductor construction US445694 1982-12-01 US4484038A 1984-11-20 William E. Dorman; Gary Brown
A flexible membrane touch panel switch having contacts comprised of a first set of thin conductive metal film strips formed on a first layer, and of a second set of thin conductive metal film strips orthogonal to the first set and formed on a second layer, the second layer being spaced apart from and selectively movable into contact with the first layer, the panel further having silver conductive leads formed on each of the layers, each lead being integrally affixed at one end to, in electrical contact with, and extending from one of the strips for connection to external circuitry.
58 Planar touch panel US449048 1982-12-13 US4467151A 1984-08-21 Robert J. Johnson; Charles N. Miller; G. Patrick Bonnie
An electrical switch comprising a touch panel includes a flexible membrane having a series of parallel, electrically conductive strips formed thereon; and an opposed substrate layer having conductive strips thereon parallel and orthogonal to the membrane strips. A series of filament spacers, running parallel to the substrate layer strips, are positioned between the membrane and substrate layer to maintain the membrane strips and substrate strips in spaced-apart relation to each other. The filament spacers are secured to an associated boundary or frame. Finger or instrument pressure selectively applied to the membrane and directed toward the substrate, can establish contact between a chosen membrane strip and substrate strip to close the switch. The elastic deformation of the filament spacers enhances contact closure and contact life expectancy. The presence of insulative dust, which interferes with the current flow between the contacts, is eliminated.
59 Transparent switch having fine line conductors US452642 1982-12-23 US4449023A 1984-05-15 Jacques J. Hilhorst; Donald G. Stillie
A membrane switch assembly for mounting on a cathode ray tube is disclosed. The assembly is comprised of two layers of transparent film having spaced-apart parallel double hairline conductors deposited on the internal surfaces of both layers. The internal surfaces are separated by an insulating ultraviolet curable polymer spacer applied in parallel strips over the conductors, the spacer being discontinuous at the switch sites. The conductors cross and are normally spaced from each other at the switch sites so that when the switch is closed by applying force to bring the two layers of conductors together, the electrical circuit can be completed at any one of four locations. This ensures completion of the electrical circuit even if force has been applied at the outer edge of the switch site.
