Problems solved by technology

[0009] However, in the above-mentioned conventional example, only the actuator 954 is directly connected to the touch panel 916, and there is no mechanism for determining how strongly the operator touched the touch panel.
Therefore, there is a problem that only touch operation can be supported

no. 1 Embodiment approach

[0079] The vibration generator 100 of the first embodiment will be described below.

[0080] First, use Figure 1 to Figure 5 The configuration of the vibration generator 100 of the first embodiment will be described. figure 1 It is a perspective view showing the external shape of the vibration generator 100 . figure 2 It is an exploded perspective view showing the configuration of the vibration generator 100 . image 3 It is a figure which shows the top plate part 22, and is a perspective view which looked at the top plate part 22 from the lower (Z2) side. Figure 4 is a diagram showing the vibrating body 30, Figure 4 (a) is a perspective view of the vibrating body 30 viewed from the upper (Z1) side, Figure 4 (b) is the perspective view which looked at the vibrating body 30 from the lower (Z2) side. Figure 5 It is a figure which shows the elastic member 33, the 1st holding plate 34, and the 2nd holding plate 35, Figure 5(a) is a perspective view of the elastic mem...

no. 2 Embodiment approach

[0124] Hereinafter, the input device 200 of the second embodiment will be described. Figure 7 It is a perspective view showing the external shape of the input device 200 according to the second embodiment of the present invention. Figure 8 is true Figure 7 The input device 200 shown is a cross-sectional view showing a B-B cross-section. In addition, the same code|symbol is attached|subjected to the same structure as 1st Embodiment, and detailed description is abbreviate|omitted.

[0125] The input device 200 of the second embodiment is, for example, Figure 7 As shown, the vibration generating device 100 and the touch panel 210 described in the first embodiment are provided.

[0126] In the touch panel 210, a flat display device such as a liquid crystal display device (LCD) and an operation input unit 211 capable of detecting electrical signals such as capacitance and resistance that change when an operator touches and manipulates the surface of the touch panel 210 are c...

Abstract

The invention provides a vibration generation apparatus which responds to a pressing operation. The vibration generation apparatus (100) includes a vibrator (30) having a movable section (32), a vibration transmission member (10) connected to the movable section (32), and a housing (10) holding the vibrator (30). The movable section (32) reciprocates along a first direction (Z1-Z2 direction). The vibration transmission member (10) is arranged on one side (Z1) of the first direction (Z1-Z2 direction), and a pressure sensor (40) is arranged on the other side (Z2). The pressure sensor (40) detects a force (F) applied to the vibration transmission member (10) in the first direction (Z1-Z2 direction).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a vibration generating device and an input device using the vibration generating device, and more particularly, to a vibration generating device capable of corresponding to pressing operations and an input device using the vibration generating device. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, vibration generating devices have been widely used in applications such as being installed in thin portable devices such as smartphones to notify incoming calls by vibration, or being installed in electronic devices that perform operation instructions by touching a touch panel to generate tactile sensations corresponding to operations. [0003] In the touch input device 900 including the actuator 954 described in Patent Document 1 (conventional example), as Figure 9 As shown, the touchpad 916 is configured on one or more springs 952 . The spring 952 connects the touchpad 916 to the hard shell, and the touchpad 916 can move alo...
