Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of membrane switch technology, and in particular to an anti-arching circuit structure. Background Technology
[0002] With membrane switches widely used in home appliances, medical devices, and industrial applications, their structural design faces significant challenges. Currently, existing membrane switches are prone to arching after assembly of their structural layers. This is because the gases between layers cannot communicate with each other. During assembly or when the operating environment changes, the accumulated gas between layers struggles to dissipate, creating pressure and ultimately leading to arching. Arching not only affects the flatness of the membrane switch's appearance, making it aesthetically pleasing, but also severely interferes with its performance. For example, in medical equipment, arching can cause abnormal button tactile feedback, affecting the accuracy of medical personnel's operations; in industrial control equipment, arching can cause poor circuit contact, leading to equipment malfunctions; in home appliances, arching reduces the user experience and may even shorten the product's lifespan. Therefore, to address this deficiency in existing technology, there is an urgent need to design an effective anti-arching circuit structure to solve the numerous problems caused by membrane switch arching. Utility Model Content
[0003] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an anti-arching line structure.
[0004] To achieve the above and other related objectives, the technical solution provided by this utility model is: an anti-arching circuit structure, comprising a lower conductive substrate, a lower conductive ink layer, an isolation adhesive layer, an upper conductive ink layer, an upper conductive substrate, a surface adhesive layer, and a panel layer stacked from bottom to top, wherein the surface adhesive layer and the upper conductive substrate are provided with corresponding through holes.
[0005] The preferred technical solution is as follows: the surface adhesive layer is made of double-sided adhesive and is attached to the upper surface of the upper conductive substrate to form an upper conductive component, and the through hole is formed by punching on the upper conductive component.
[0006] A preferred technical solution is that the through holes are multiple and evenly distributed on the upper conductive component.
[0007] Due to the application of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0008] This utility model provides. Attached Figure Description
[0009] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the cross-section of the circuit structure involved in this utility model. Detailed Implementation
[0010] The following specific embodiments illustrate the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification.
[0011] Please see Figure 1 It should be noted that in the description of this utility model, the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly used when the utility model product is in use. These terms are used only for the convenience of describing this utility model and for simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third," etc., are only used to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. The terms "horizontal," "vertical," and "suspended," etc., do not indicate that the component must be absolutely horizontal or suspended, but rather that it can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" simply means that its direction is more horizontal than "vertical," and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but can be slightly tilted.
[0012] In the description of this utility model, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "install," "connect," and "link" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components.

[0013] Example:
[0014] like Figure 1 As shown, according to an overall technical concept of this utility model, an anti-arching circuit structure is provided, including a lower conductive substrate 1, a lower conductive ink layer 2, an isolation adhesive layer 3, an upper conductive ink layer 4, an upper conductive substrate 5, a surface adhesive layer 6, and a panel layer 7 stacked from bottom to top. The surface adhesive layer 6 and the upper conductive substrate 5 are provided with corresponding through holes 100.
[0015] like Figure 1 As shown, in an exemplary embodiment of this utility model, the surface adhesive layer 6 is made of double-sided adhesive and attached to the upper surface of the upper conductive substrate 5 to form an upper conductive component, and the through hole 100 is formed by punching on the upper conductive component.
[0016] like Figure 1As shown, in an exemplary embodiment of this utility model, there are multiple through holes 100, which are evenly distributed on the upper conductive component.
[0017] Therefore, this utility model has the following advantages:
[0018] 1. Effectively prevents arching: This invention uses corresponding through holes on the surface adhesive layer and the upper conductive substrate to allow gas to flow between the layers. During assembly or use, gas will not accumulate and cause pressure that leads to arching, fundamentally solving the problem of arching in membrane switches and ensuring the flatness and stability of the product.
[0019] 2. Improved Product Performance and Reliability: Preventing arching helps maintain good tactile feedback of membrane switches, ensuring accurate button operation. Simultaneously, it prevents poor contact caused by arching, significantly improving the performance and reliability of membrane switches in various devices. In medical equipment, it ensures precise operation by medical personnel; in industrial equipment, it reduces the frequency of equipment failures; and in home appliances, it enhances the user experience and extends product lifespan.
[0020] 3. Simple process and controllable cost: The surface adhesive layer is attached to the upper conductive substrate with double-sided adhesive to form the upper conductive component. Through holes are formed by punching, and multiple through holes are evenly distributed on the upper conductive component. This design simplifies the production process and facilitates mass production. Compared to complex anti-arching technologies, this effectively controls production costs, improves production efficiency, and enhances the product's competitiveness in the market while ensuring product quality.
[0021] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.
