[0032] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, a high reliability OGS touch screen comprises:

[0033] A glass cover plate 100, wherein the glass cover plate 100 has a display area 101 and a peripheral area 102;

[0034] A first protective layer 200 is disposed on the glass cover plate 100 and is disposed in the display area 101 and the peripheral area 102;

[0035] The frame ink layer 300 is disposed on the first protective layer 200 and is only disposed in the peripheral area 102;

[0036] A second protection layer 400 is disposed on the frame ink layer 300 and is disposed in the display area 101 and the peripheral area 102;

[0037] The OGS sensor layer 500 is disposed on the second protective layer 400 and is disposed in the display area 101 and the peripheral area 102;

[0038] The third protection layer 600 is disposed on the OGS sensor layer 500 and is also disposed in the display area 101 and the peripheral area 102 .

[0039] The high-reliability OGS touch screen of the utility model adopts three layers of protection layers to simultaneously protect the frame ink layer 300 and the OGS sensor layer 500 from moisture, wherein the first protection layer 200 and the second protection layer 400 are respectively arranged on the two opposite sides of the frame ink layer 300, and form a sandwich protection structure with the frame ink layer 300, so as to protect the frame ink layer 300 from both sides, and the first protection layer 200 can block the external moisture that penetrates the glass cover plate 100, so as to make up for the fact that the glass cover plate 100 is difficult to block the external moisture due to its low material density. The second protective layer 400 and the third protective layer 600 are respectively arranged on the two opposite sides of the OGS sensor layer 500, and also form a sandwich-type protection structure with the OGS sensor layer 500, which can protect the OGS sensor layer 500 from both sides, and the third protective layer 600 can block the penetration of external water vapor; the second protective layer 400 separates the frame ink layer 300 and the OGS sensor layer 500, and adds an additional barrier to block water vapor between the frame ink layer 300 and the OGS sensor layer 500, thereby further improving product reliability.

[0040] At least one of the first protective layer 200, the second protective layer 400 and the third protective layer 600 is an inorganic oxide layer, an inorganic nitride layer or an inorganic oxynitride layer. The inorganic oxide layer, the inorganic nitride layer or the inorganic oxynitride layer has a dense molecular atomic arrangement structure, has a good barrier effect on water vapor molecules, and has relatively stable chemical properties. It also has high fire resistance, high temperature resistance, small thermal expansion coefficient, high insulation, corrosion resistance, piezoelectric effect and other properties, which can effectively protect the frame ink layer 300 and the OGS sensor layer 500, thereby enhancing product reliability.

[0041] In this embodiment, at least one of the first protective layer 200 , the second protective layer 400 , and the third protective layer 600 is a silicon dioxide layer, a silicon nitride layer, or a silicon oxynitride layer.

[0042] Preferably, at least one of the first protective layer 200 , the second protective layer 400 and the third protective layer 600 has a thickness of not less than 20 μm.

[0043] like Figure 3As shown, the OGS sensor layer 500 includes a plurality of touch sensors 510 and a plurality of metal traces 520, wherein the touch sensors 510 are arranged in the display area 101, and the metal traces 520 are arranged in the peripheral area 102; one end of each metal trace 520 is connected to the corresponding touch sensor 510, and the other end extends to a side edge of the peripheral area 102.

[0044] The touch sensor 510 includes a bridge 511, an insulating bridge 512 arranged on the bridge 511, first electrodes 513 located on both sides of the bridge 511 along a first direction, and first electrodes 513 located on both sides of the bridge 511 along a second direction; both ends of the bridge 511 along the first direction extend out from the insulating bridge 512, the first electrodes 513 located on both sides of the bridge 511 along the first direction are bridge-connected through the exposed bridge 511, and the second electrodes 514 located on both sides of the bridge 511 along the second direction are connected through wiring on the insulating bridge 512.

[0045] The first direction is perpendicular to the second direction. In this embodiment, the first direction is the transverse direction of the glass cover plate 100 , and the second direction is the longitudinal direction of the glass cover plate 100 .

[0046] In this embodiment, the bridge body 511 may be, but is not limited to, an ITO bridge body 511 or a metal bridge body 511 .

[0047] The frame ink layer 300 may be, but is not limited to, a black ink layer, which is formed on the peripheral area 102 of the glass cover plate 100 by ink silk-screen printing. Embodiment 2

[0048] As an optimization solution of the first embodiment, in this embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, the high-reliability OGS touch screen further includes a flat layer 700 disposed on the third protective layer 600 and disposed in the display area 101 and the peripheral area 102 , and a surface of the flat layer 700 facing away from the third protective layer 600 is a flat surface.

[0049] Since the first protective layer 200, the frame ink layer 300, the second protective layer 400, the OGS sensor layer 500 and the third protective layer 600 have different coverage areas and different film thicknesses, the surface of the high-reliability OGS touch screen may be uneven, which may affect the subsequent bonding with the display screen or the production of other functional layers. The flat layer 700 is mainly used to fill the surface of the high-reliability OGS touch screen.

[0050] In this embodiment, the planar layer 700 may be, but is not limited to, an organic high molecular polymer layer, preferably epoxy resin or OC insulating glue.

[0051] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the embodiments of the utility model rather than to limit them.
