Finger glove for electronics device

Abstract

A finger glove for a touch screen of an electronic device includes a finger pocket adapted for being worn by a finger of a wearer, and a touch receptor which is made of electro-conductive material. The finger pocket has a tip portion covering a distal phalanx of the wearer's finger and a finger stall portion extended from the tip portion. The touch receptor is provided at the tip portion of the finger pocket at an outer surface thereof for responsively contacting with the touch screen of the electronic device.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE PRESENT INVENTION[0001]1. Field of Invention[0002]The present invention relates to an electronic device with touch screen configuration, and more particular to a finger glove for the electronic device, wherein the wearer is able to wear the glove to operate the touch screen device.[0003]2. Description of Related Arts[0004]Touch-screen input becomes a mainstream for electronic devices, such as mobile phone and personal computer. In fact, most portable electronic devices, such as “Apple iPhone or iPad” are only operated by the virtual keyboard without any physical QWERTY keyboard. In other words, the users can only use their fingers to operate the electronic devices. Generally speaking, the capacitive touch screen requires bare-handed finger contact to touch on the screen surface. Unlike the conventional resistive screen, the capacitive touch screen does not rely on pressure on the screen surface, such that the capacitive touch screen is more responsive than the resi...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0006]Another advantage of the invention is to provide a finger glove, wherein the touch receptor, which is made of electro-conductive material, is provided at the tip of the finger glove for responsively contacting with the touch screen of the electronic device.

[0007]Another advantage of the invention is to provide a finger glove, wherein the touch receptor has a center high-dense controlling area and a peripheral less-dense regulating area for allowing the wearer to precisely contact with the touch screen of the electronic device.

[0008]Another advantage of the invention is to provide a finger glove, which can be embodied as a finger sleeve to fit one finger of the wearer or as a glove to fit the hand of the wearer.

[0009]Another advantage of the invention is to provide a finger glove, which does not require to alter the original structural design of the glove, so as to minimize the manufacturing cost of the glove incorporating with the touch receptor.

[0010]Another advantage of the invention is to provide a finger glove, wherein no expensive or complicated structure is required to employ in the present invention in order to achieve the above mentioned objects. Therefore, the present invention successfully provides an economic and efficient solution for providing a configuration for the finger glove to operate the touch screen device.

[0011]Additional advantages and features of the invention will become apparent from the description which follows, and may be realized by means of the instrumentalities and combinations particular point out in the appended claims.

Problems solved by technology

However, the capacitive touch screen can only be operated by the touch of a finger and does not respond to a touch with a conventional stylus, gloves or most other objects.

For example, when a user wears warm keeping gloves or electrical resisting gloves, the screen surface of the capacitive touch screen will not detect a touch of finger through the gloves.
