Benefits of technology

[0011]An objective of the present invention is to provide a glove, which can be conveniently used to operate a capacitive touch panel with high operational accuracy and is cheap to manufacture. Thereby, a user can accurately operate a touch panel of the capacitive touch panel even when the use wears the glove.

Problems solved by technology

Hence, when a user wears a glove because of cold weather or other reasons, the user will be unable to operate the capacitive touch panel.
Because the outer layer 13 has to be peeled off prior to use, this glove is much inconvenient to use; furthermore, because an insulating layer exists outside the conductive inner layer 11, such problems as poor contact or inaccurate positioning are liable to occur when a touch panel is pressed by a finger of the user.
However, as the conductive yarns are more expensive than common yarns, such a glove is costly to manufacture.

Abstract

A glove for operating a capacitive touch panel is provided. The glove of the invention comprises a glove body and a plurality of conductive parts. The glove body has a plurality of fingertip parts and the conductive parts are sewn through on the fingertip parts respectively. When a user wears the gloves of the present invention, the static electricity in the user's fingertips would be coupled with the capacitive touch panel through the conductive parts for touch control.

Description

[0001]This application claims the benefit of priority based on Taiwan Patent Application No. 099114929 filed on May 11, 2010, the disclosures of which are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety.CROSS-REFERENCES TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0002]Not applicable.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]1. Field of the Invention[0004]The present invention relates to a glove, and more particularly, to a glove for operating a capacitive touch panel.[0005]2. Descriptions of the Related Art[0006]A touch panel is a device disposed adjacent to a display, which can be controlled by a slight touch from a finger or a stylus so as to transmit data or read a message. As being convenient to use, touch panels have found wide application in various fields, for example, in portable electronic products, automatic teller machines (ATMs), industrial control systems and information inquiry machines. In terms of the induction principle, touch panels are classified into capacitive touch panels, resistive tou...
