Problems solved by technology

However, since the sensing element is a spring structure, it is not easy to locate during the installation process, and usually requires professional fixtures, otherwise it is easy to cause misalignment or displacement, resulting in unstable signal detection
At the same time, due to the limitation of the spring structure itself, the contact ...

Abstract

The invention provides a touch key structure and a household electrical appliance using the touch key structure. The key structure comprises an operating panel, a printed circuit board, and a capacitance-sensing device which is arranged between the operating panel and the printed circuit board and is welded to the printed circuit board. The capacitance-sensing device comprises an induction part. The induction part touches the operating panel through surfaces, so that the induction part touches the operating panel more tightly, and the capacity of the capacitance-sensing device is increased, thereby the capacitance-sensing device is induced more sensitively to the touch of a user.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention relates to a touch key structure and a household appliance using the touch key structure. 【Background technique】 [0002] With the development of technology, touch buttons are more and more applied to household appliances or consumer electronics products due to their light and fast touch sensing, scratch resistance, resistance to dust, water and dirt, and suitability for harsh environments. For example, U.S. Patent Application US 2005 / 0179673A1 discloses a capacitive sensor for sensing the touch of a user's finger. The sensor includes an inductive element coupled to a capacitance measurement circuit. The inductive element includes a spring that is gradually opened at one end. This end of the spring is installed under the control panel under a certain external pressure so as to be in contact with the control panel, and the other end of the spring extends a pin to be welded on the circuit board under the spring to connect with the capacit...
