AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing touchscreen displays with large form factors face challenges in being properly mounted to enclosures while maintaining effective haptic feedback, as vibrations are often attenuated by the mounting structure and the screen may flex or move when touched.
Method used
A touchscreen mounting system utilizing Z-shaped springs arranged in various orientations to provide spring resistance and support, allowing haptic actuators to generate effective feedback without compromising structural integrity.
Benefits of technology
The system ensures stable mounting and maximizes haptic feedback by minimizing energy consumption and maintaining vibration integrity, even with large displays, by using Z-shaped springs to restrict movement and enhance haptic output.

Abstract
A touchscreen mounting system and a haptic user interface using this touchscreen mounting system are disclosed. The touchscreen mounting system comprises a base and a plurality of separate Z-shaped springs. Each of the plurality of separate Z-shaped springs has a mounting surface for mounting to the base and a connecting surface, the connecting surface of which at least partially overlaps with the mounting surface of the Z-shaped spring and is substantially coplanar with the connecting surface of other Z-shaped springs, and is configured to receive and support the touchscreen, thereby positioning each Z-shaped spring between the mounted touchscreen and the base and providing spring resistance to the mounted touchscreen in directions perpendicular and non-perpendicular to its connecting surface. At least two of the plurality of Z-shaped springs are oriented differently, so that their movements, other than movement perpendicular to the connecting surface, are at least partially opposite to each other.
