Description

A conductive film patch Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically a conductive membrane patch. Background Technology

[0002] A flat dome switch, also known as a metal dome or metal spring, is a tactile switch component widely used in electronic devices. It is typically made of stainless steel or nickel alloy and is shaped like a hemispherical or conical dome with a conductive coating on the bottom. When the top of the dome is pressed, the dome indents, causing the conductive coating on the bottom to contact the contacts on the PCB board, thus creating a circuit and enabling the switch function. This structure gives the dome excellent elasticity and conductivity, providing clear and timely tactile feedback, and a long service life.

[0003] However, with the development of technology and the emergence of new application scenarios, the limitations of traditional planar dome switches have gradually become apparent: Traditional planar dome switches are mainly fixed to rigid circuit boards by welding or adhesive; this fixing method limits its application range, making it impossible to directly attach to flexible materials, such as textiles, mask fabrics, silicone, and other non-rigid substrates. This is a serious limitation for applications that need to integrate switches into flexible electronic devices, wearable devices, medical sensors, and other fields. Traditional metal patches are usually made of stainless steel or nickel alloys. Although they have a certain degree of corrosion resistance, they are still prone to oxidation when exposed to humid or liquid environments for a long time. This will cause an oxide layer to form on the metal surface, increasing contact resistance, reducing conductivity, and even ultimately causing switch failure. This is a fatal flaw for electronic devices that need to be used underwater or in humid environments.

[0004] Based on this, a conductive membrane patch is now provided, which can eliminate the drawbacks of existing devices. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a conductive film patch to solve the problems in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A conductive membrane patch includes a pressing assembly and a sealing assembly;

[0008] The pressing assembly includes a metal spring sheet, with an insulating protective film at the lower edge of the metal spring sheet. A spring sheet contact is provided on the inner side of the insulating protective film, and a micro-electrode interface is provided in the middle of the insulating protective film. The sealing assembly includes a non-woven fabric, with an installation groove. A first connecting steel sheet is provided on the outer side of the lower surface of the non-woven fabric, and a sealing gasket and a second connecting steel sheet are provided on the lower surface of the insulating protective film. Corresponding positions of the sealing gasket, the second connecting steel sheet, and the first connecting steel sheet are provided with communicating connecting grooves, and the inner wall of the connecting groove is provided with a waterproof adhesive layer.

[0009] Based on the above technical solutions, this utility model also provides the following optional technical solutions:

[0010] In one alternative: the metal spring is disposed inside the mounting groove, and the spring contact is connected to the corresponding flexible conductive silver paste line through a micro-electrode interface.

[0011] In one alternative: the metal spring is made of 316L stainless steel with a thickness of 0.05 to 0.2 mm, and its surface is covered with a nano-scale hydrophobic coating.

[0012] In one alternative: the nanoscale hydrophobic coating is a polytetrafluoroethylene modified coating.

[0013] In one alternative: both the first connecting steel plate and the second connecting steel plate are magnetically connected to an external power source or skin care device.

[0014] In one alternative, the sealing gasket is made of EPDM rubber.

[0015] In one alternative: the flexible conductive silver paste line is positioned inside the connecting groove.

[0016] In one alternative: a sealing layer is provided on the inner side of the mounting groove.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0018] This invention utilizes a patch assembly, including a metal spring with a PTFE-modified coating, to effectively improve the metal spring's corrosion resistance. Simultaneously, the inclusion of a sealing layer and gasket effectively solves the problems of liquid corrosion, sealing failure, and short circuits faced by traditional conductive patches in beauty product applications. This extends the device's lifespan in liquid environments, allowing it to be immersed in cosmetic essences for extended periods without affecting its functionality. This expands its application beyond conventional PCB boards to the beauty industry, including smart face masks and smart breast masks. Attached Figure Description
