[0002] In the development of digital devices, curved touchscreens have gradually become mainstream due to their aesthetic appeal and enhanced user experience. Curved designs not only provide a wider viewing angle and a more natural operating experience, but also make the overall appearance of the device more stylish and attractive. However, despite the many improvements brought by curved touchscreens, existing curved touchscreen technology still faces some technical challenges and shortcomings, mainly in the following aspects:

[0003] Structural stability and durability: Traditional curved touchscreens often employ a relatively simple internal frame structure, which to some extent limits the screen's mechanical strength and impact resistance. In daily use, this structure is prone to deformation or damage due to external forces, especially at the edges and corners.

[0004] Heat dissipation issues: Existing curved touchscreens often lack effective heat dissipation designs, easily accumulating heat during prolonged operation. Due to the complexity of curved designs, traditional planar heat dissipation technologies struggle to adapt to their structure, potentially leading to overheating and impacting device performance and lifespan.

[0005] Therefore, this solution proposes a color touchscreen with a sensing structure to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a color touch screen with a sensing structure.

[0007] To achieve the aforementioned objective, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a color touch screen with a sensing structure, comprising a touch screen body, wherein an inner fixing frame for the touch screen is installed on the outer side of the touch screen body;

[0008] The touch screen body includes, from the outside to the inside, an outer protective layer, a colored ink layer, an ink protective layer, a capacitive sensing layer, a touch screen, and a circuit board layer. The touch screen body is curved as a whole, and the edges of several layers of the touch screen body are distributed in a stepped manner.

[0009] The internal fixing frame of the touch screen specifically includes the following structure:

[0010] Side positioning frames that are adapted to the left and right sides of the touch screen body;

[0011] Several arc-shaped reinforcing ribs are arranged sequentially from top to bottom between the side positioning frames on both sides and are attached to the back of the touch screen body;

[0012] Several heat dissipation fins are distributed between two adjacent arc-shaped reinforcing ribs;

[0013] The combined end caps are installed between the upper and lower ends of the side positioning frames on both sides, and the upper and lower combined end caps cover the upper and lower ends of the touch screen body.

[0014] Preferably, each of the heat dissipation fins is configured as an arc-shaped sheet with the same shape as the arc-shaped reinforcing rib, and the inner side of each heat dissipation fin is attached to the back of the circuit board layer.

[0015] Preferably, the inner side of the side positioning frame is configured as a stepped shape to match the side of the touch screen body.

[0016] Preferably, the outer protective layer is made of 3D curved glass or other flexible substrate.

[0017] Preferably, the capacitive sensing layer is composed of a flexible conductive material with a self-adhesive layer and a nano-silver conductive material.

[0018] Preferably, the circuit board layer is coated with a thermally conductive adhesive with good thermal conductivity.

[0019] Preferably, the entire color touchscreen is distributed as a display unit inside the touchscreen housing.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model are reflected in:

[0021] Structural Enhancement and Stability: The internal fixing frame of the touchscreen employs a combination of side positioning frames and curved reinforcing ribs, significantly enhancing the touchscreen's mechanical strength. This design not only ensures the stability of the touchscreen during daily use but also reduces overall weight through the use of curved ribs, improving portability. The distribution of curved reinforcing ribs allows the touchscreen to maintain its shape and function even under significant external forces, improving the product's durability and lifespan.

[0022] Thermal optimization: The design and material selection of the heat sink fins are crucial for maintaining stable touchscreen operation. These fins, located between curved reinforcing ribs and directly attached to the back of the circuit board layer, effectively conduct and dissipate heat. The use of highly thermally conductive materials ensures the touchscreen does not overheat even during prolonged operation or under high load conditions, maintaining device performance and safety.

[0023] Through the aforementioned design, this color touchscreen improves usability and durability while ensuring the device's aesthetics and modern feel, making it ideal for various high-end electronic devices. This unique structural design gives it a significant advantage in the highly competitive touchscreen market. Attached Figure Description

[0042] Capacitive sensing layer 14: Composed of a flexible conductive material with a self-adhesive layer and nano-silver conductive material, it is used to realize touch sensing function. The capacitive sensing layer can accurately detect touch position and pressure, providing sensitive touch response.

[0043] Touchscreen 15: Primarily used to receive user touch operations. The touchscreen layer employs high-sensitivity touch technology, enabling rapid response to user touch operations and providing a smooth user experience.

[0044] Circuit board layer 16: Coated with thermally conductive adhesive, it handles touch signals and drives the display. This circuit board layer integrates the touch control chip and display driver chip, ensuring stable operation of the touchscreen.

[0045] The touchscreen body 1 is designed with a curved surface to meet the design requirements of modern electronic devices. This curved design not only enhances the visual appeal of the touchscreen but also improves the user's touch experience.
