[0071] In order to make objects, solutions and advantages of embodiments of the present disclosure clearer, a clear and thorough description for technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Apparently, the described embodiments are a part of embodiments of the present disclosure, not all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained, based on the embodiments in the present disclosure, by those skilled in the art without paying creative effort fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

[0072] In the related art, an actuator can be used to realize a key function on the surface of a touch panel, but fails to generate a texture feedback effect modulated by the sliding friction force of the finger. Therefore, how to enrich the tactile sense of the touch panel is an urgent technical problem to be solved.

[0073] According to the Reynolds lubrication theory, when a finger 11 operates on a touch panel 12, the touch panel 12 vibrates, causing the air film between the finger 11 and the touch panel 12 to be compressed. Accordingly, an overpressure that causes the finger 11 to float is generated, thereby making the finger 11 feel a smoother haptic sense. FIG. 1 shows force conditions of the air film between the finger 11 and the touch panel 12, where Ps is the pressure exerted by the finger 11, Pr is the supporting force of the touch panel 12, and Pa is the pressure of the air film.

[0074] The present disclosure provides a haptic feedback substrate, as shown in FIG. 2, the haptic feedback substrate includes: a touch panel 21 with a touch surface SO; and a plurality of actuators 22 disposed on a side of the touch panel 21 facing away from the touch surface SO.

[0075] As shown in any one of FIG. 3 to FIG. 10, the actuators 22 include a plurality of first actuators 31 arranged along a first direction fi and a plurality of second actuators 32 arranged along a second direction fa, and the first direction fi and the second direction fa intersect with each other.

[0076] Among them, the first actuators 31 are configured for driving the touch panel 21 to generate a first vibration, and the second actuators 32 are configured for driving the touch panel 21 to generate a second vibration. The first vibration and the second vibration are used for forming texture feedback in different directions on the touch surface SO.

[0077] Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 3 to FIG. 10, the first direction fi and the second direction fa are perpendicular to each other.

[0078] In the case that a touch object slides along the second direction fa, a first driving signal may be provided to the first actuators 31. In response to the first driving signal, the first actuators 31 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a first vibration, thereby forming a first Lamb wave (sine wave) propagating along the second direction fa on the touch surface SO. In this way, friction force modulation is formed in the second direction fa, that is, texture feedback is formed in the second direction fa.

[0079] In the case that the touch object slides along the first direction fi, a second driving signal may be provided to the second actuators 32. In response to the second driving signal, the second actuators 32 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a second vibration, thereby forming a second Lamb wave (sine wave) propagating along the first direction fi on the touch surface SO. In this way, friction force modulation is formed in the first direction fi, that is, texture feedback is formed in the first direction fi.

[0080] According to the haptic feedback substrate provided by the present disclosure, by providing a plurality of first actuators 31 arranged along the first direction fi and a plurality of second actuators 32 arranged along the second direction fa, the friction modulation and texture feedback in corresponding directions may be achieved during the sliding of the finger, thereby providing the user with a rich and realistic haptic experience.

[0081] In the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 3 to FIG. 9, the arrangement direction of the plurality of first actuators 31 may be parallel to the first direction fi. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 10, an angle between the arrangement direction of the plurality of first actuators 31 and the first direction fi is an acute angle or an obtuse angle, that is, an arrangement direction of orthographic projections of the plurality of first actuators 31 in the first direction fi is parallel to the first direction fi, so that the first Lamb wave has a component in the second direction fz.

[0082] As shown in FIG. 3 to FIG. 9, the arrangement direction of the plurality of second actuators 32 may be parallel to the second direction fz. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 10, the angle between the arrangement direction of the plurality of second actuators 32 and the second direction fz is an acute angle or an obtuse angle, that is, the arrangement direction of orthographic projections of the plurality of second actuators 32 in the second direction fz is parallel to the second direction £2, so that the second Lamb wave has a component in the first direction fi.

[0083] In a specific implementation, the plurality of first actuators 31 arranged along the first direction fj may be spaced apart. However, if the distance dl between two adjacent first actuators 31 in the first direction fi is too large, the first Lamb wave mode of vibration is prone to problems such as breakpoints, uneven standing waves, and excessive noise.

[0084] In order to solve these problems, in some embodiments, as shown in any one of FIG.3 to FIG. 10, the distance dl between two adjacent first actuators 31 in the first direction fi is less than or equal to a first half wavelength 1 / 2 X b The first half wavelength 1 / 2 X ] is half of the wavelength of the waveform of the first vibration propagating along the second direction fz, that is, half of the wavelength of the first Lamb wave. These embodiments are conducive to obtaining a more stable and single first Lamb wave vibration mode, and the smaller the distance dl, the more stable and unity the vibration mode of the first Lamb wave.

[0085] Exemplarily, as shown in any one of FIG.3 to FIG. 10, the distance dl between two adjacent first actuators 31 in the first direction fi may be greater than 0 and less than or equal to the first half wavelength 1 / 2 X b In this way, the first Lamb wave vibration mode is ensured to be stable and single, and problems such as cracks or breakage are avoided during the attachment process of the first actuator 31, especially when the first actuator 31 uses relatively brittle piezoelectric ceramics.

[0086] Exemplarily, the plurality of first actuators 31 arranged along the first direction fi may also be closely arranged as an integrated structure, that is, the distance dl between two adjacent first actuators 31 in the first direction fi is equal to 0, which can maximally improve the stability and unity of the first Lamb wave vibration mode.

[0087] Exemplarily, as shown in any one of FIG. 3 to FIG. 10, the distance dl between any two adjacent first actuators 31 in the first direction fi is the same.

[0088] In some specific implementations, the plurality of second actuators 32 arranged along the second direction fz may be spaced apart. In order to avoid the problems of breakpoints, uneven standing waves and excessive noise in the second Lamb wave vibration mode, in some embodiments, as shown in any one of FIG.3 to FIG. 10, the distance d2 between two adjacent second actuators 32 in the second direction fz is less than or equal to a second half wavelength 1 / 2 X 2. The first half wavelength 1 / 2 X 2 is half of the wavelength of the waveform of the second vibration propagating along the second direction fi, that is, half of the wavelength of the second Lamb wave. This embodiment is conducive to obtaining a more stable and unity first Lamb wave vibration mode, and the smaller the distance dl, the more stable and unity the vibration mode of the second Lamb wave.

[0089] Exemplarily, as shown in any one of FIG.3 to FIG. 10, the distance d2 between two adjacent first actuators 32 in the second direction fz may be greater than 0 and less than or equal to the second half wavelength 1 / 2 X 2. In this way, the second Lamb wave vibration mode is ensured to be stable and unity, and problems such as cracks or breakage are avoided during the attachment process of the second actuator 32, especially when the second actuator 32 uses relatively brittle piezoelectric ceramics.

[0090] Exemplarily, the plurality of second actuators 32 arranged along the second direction fz may also be closely arranged as an integrated structure, that is, the distance d2 between two adjacent second actuators 32 in the second direction fz is equal to 0, which can maximally improve the stability and unity of the second Lamb wave vibration mode.

[0091] Exemplarily, as shown in any one of FIG. 3 to FIG. 10, the distance d2 between any two adjacent second actuators 32 in the second direction fz is the same.

[0092] In order to prevent the first actuators 31 from hindering the deformation of the touch panel 21, in some embodiments, as shown in any one of FIG. 3 to FIG. 10, the width wl of each of the first actuators 31 in the second direction fz is greater than or equal to one quarter of the first half wavelength 1 / 2 A u and less than or equal to the first half wavelength 1 / 2 A b and the first half wavelength 1 / 2 A j is half of the wavelength of the waveform of the first vibration propagating along the second direction fz, that is, half of the wavelength of the first Lamb wave.

[0093] In an embodiment, a better texture feedback effect can be obtained by setting the width wl to be greater than and equal to 1 / 8 A b but less than and equal to 1 / 2 A b

[0094] In order to prevent the second actuators 32 from hindering the deformation of the touch panel 21, in some embodiments, as shown in any one of FIG. 3 to FIG. 10, the width w2 of each of the second actuators 32 in the first direction fi is greater than or equal to one quarter of the second half wavelength 1 / 2 A 2, and less than or equal to the second half wavelength 1 / 2 A 2, and the second half wavelength 1 / 2 A 2 is half of the wavelength of the waveform of the second vibration propagating along the first direction fi, that is, half of the wavelength of the second Lamb wave.

[0095] In an embodiment, a better texture feedback effect can be obtained by setting the width w2 to be greater than and equal to 1 / 8 A 2, but less than and equal to 1 / 2 A 2.

[0096] It should be noted that in order to achieve the air squeeze film effect between the finger and the touch panel 21 and to reproduce the texture, the first half wavelength 1 / 2 A 1 and the second half wavelength 1 / 2 A 2 are both less than or equal to the width W of the finger, that is, 1 / 2 A i^W, 1 / 2 A 2^W. For example, the width W of the finger is 10-15 mm.

[0097] When the width of the touch panel 21 along the first direction fi is 'a', the wavelength of the second Lamb wave propagating along the first direction fi is M =2 a / (n-l), 1 / 2 A 2= a / (n-l), where n is a positive integer greater than 1.

[0098] When the width of the touch panel 21 along the second direction fi is 'b', the wavelength of the first Lamb wave propagating along the second direction fi is / 1 =2 b / (n-l), and 1 / 2 X 1= b / (n-l), where n is a positive integer greater than 1.

[0099] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 11, each of the first actuators 31 is located at the peak Pl or trough T1 of the first vibration, and each of the second actuators 32 is located at the peak P2 or trough T2 of the second vibration. Since the amplitude at the node N of the wave is small, and the amplitude at the peak Pl / Pl or trough T1 / T2 is large, by disposing the first actuator 31 at the peak Pl or trough T1 of the first Lamb wave and disposing the second actuator 32 at the peak P2 or trough T2 of the second Lamb wave, it is beneficial to enhance the amplitude of the vibration and improve the texture feedback effect.

[00100] In order to obtain a better texture feedback effect, the amplitude of the first vibration and the second vibration may be greater than or equal to 1 micrometer. The frequency of the first vibration and the second vibration may be greater than or equal to 20 kHz.

[00101] In some embodiments, as shown in any one of FIG. 3 to FIG. 10, the plurality of actuators 22 further include a plurality of third actuators 33 for driving the touch panel 21 to generate a third vibration, so as to form vibration feedback on the touch surface SO, where the frequency of the third vibration is less than the frequency of the first vibration and the frequency of the second vibration.

[00102] In specific embodiments, the third actuators 33 may include at least one of: actuators 22 that are provided to be independent from the first actuators 31 and the second actuators 32; the first actuators 31; and the second actuators 32. That is, the third actuators 33 may be provided to be independent from the first actuators 31 and the second actuators 32. Alternatively, the third actuators 33 may be time-division multiplexed with the first actuators 31, or be time-division multiplexed with the second actuators 32.

[00103] When the touch object presses the touch panel 21, a third driving signal may be provided to the third actuators 33. In response to the third driving signal, the third actuators 33 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a third vibration, thereby forming vibration feedback that is perpendicular to the touch surface SO on the touch surface SO. Referring to FIG. 12, a simulation diagram of the vibration mode of the third vibration is shown.

[00104] By providing the third actuators 33, a richer haptic feedback effect can be achieved on the touch surface SO of the touch panel 21, which can not only realize friction force modulation but also the vibration feedback in the vertical direction during the sliding of the finger, thereby further enriching the user's haptic experience.

[00105] Exemplarily, the frequency of the third vibration may be less than or equal to 500 Hz, for example 200 Hz.

[00106] In order to improve the uniformity of the vibration haptic feedback, the orthographic projections of the plurality of third actuators 33 on the touch surface SO are evenly arranged within the range of the touch surface SO.

[00107] In some embodiments, as shown in any one of FIG. 3 to FIG. 10, the plurality of third actuators 33 are symmetrically arranged, and the distance d3 between any two adjacent third actuators 33 is the same.

[00108] Among them, the distance d3 between two adjacent third actuators 33 includes: the distance between two adjacent third actuators 33 in the first direction fi, the distance between two adjacent third actuators 33 in the second direction fa, and the distance between two adjacent third actuators 33 in the third direction f?, and the third direction f? is different from the first direction fi and the second direction fa.

[00109] Exemplarily, as shown in any one of FIG.3 to FIG. 10, the distance dl between two adjacent first actuators 31 in the first direction fi and the distance d2 between two adjacent second actuators 32 in the second direction fa are less than or equal to the distance d3 between two adjacent third actuators 33.

[00110] Exemplarily, the third actuators 33 may also be used for detecting a touch pressure. When the touch object presses the touch panel 21, the third actuators 33 generate a voltage signal based on the positive piezoelectric effect, the voltage signal is compared with a preset voltage threshold, so as to determine whether the touch panel 21 is pressed by the touch object. In response to determining that the touch panel is pressed by the touch object, a third driving signal is output to the third actuators 33 so that the third actuators 33 drive the touch panel 21 to generate the third vibration.

[00111] In some embodiments, as shown in any one of FIG. 3 to FIG. 8, the touch surface SO includes first sides bl and second sides b2 adjacent to each other, the plurality of first actuators 31 are disposed close to the first sides bl, and the plurality of second actuators 32 are disposed close to the second sides b2.

[00112] In some embodiments, as shown in any one of FIG. 5 to FIG. 8, the plurality of first actuators 31 are disposed close to one of the first sides bl.

[00113] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 3 or FIG. 4, the plurality of first actuators 31 are disposed close to two of the first sides bl, and two of the first sides bl are disposed opposite to each other. Accordingly, by disposing two rows of first actuators 31, the vibrations generated by the two rows of first actuators 31 are superimposed on each other, thereby enhancing the texture feedback effect generated by the first vibration.

[00114] In some embodiments, as shown in any one of FIG. 5 to FIG. 8, the plurality of second actuators 32 are disposed close to one of the second sides b2.

[00115] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 3 or FIG. 4, the plurality of second actuators 32 are disposed close to two of the second sides b2, and two of the second sides b2 are disposed opposite to each other. Accordingly, by disposing two rows of second actuators 32, the vibrations generated by the two rows of second actuators 32 are superimposed on each other, thereby enhancing the texture feedback effect generated by the second vibration.

[00116] In some embodiments, as shown in any one of FIG. 3 to FIG. 8, the first sides bl are parallel to the first direction fj, and the second sides b2 are parallel to the second direction fj.

[00117] In FIG. 3 to FIG. 8, the touch surface SO is a polygon, and the first side bl and the second side b2 are two adjacent sides of the polygon.

[00118] Exemplarily, as shown in any one of FIG. 3 to FIG. 8, the length of the first side bl is greater than the length of the second side b2.

[00120] In the case that the length of the first side bl is greater than the length of the second side b2, the uniformity of the vibration haptic sensation can be improved by providing a plurality of third actuators 33 arranged along the first symmetry axis Al.

In FIG. 4, two third actuators 33 are arranged along the first symmetry axis Al and symmetrically disposed on both sides of the geometric center C.

[00125] Exemplarily, as shown in any one of FIG. 3 to FIG. 8, the touch surface SO is a polygon (for example a quadrilateral), and the first actuator 31 or the second actuator 32 disposed close to a comer of the polygon is time-division multiplexed as the third actuator 33.

[00126] Exemplarily, as shown in any one of FIG. 3 to FIG. 8, the first actuator 31 disposed close to the midpoint Cl of the first side bl is time-division multiplexed as the third actuator 33.

[00127] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 9, the touch surface SO has a first symmetry axis Al extending along the first direction fi and a second symmetry axis A2 extending along the second direction fa, the plurality of first actuators 31 are arranged in sequence on the first symmetry axis Al, and the plurality of second actuators 32 are arranged in sequence on the second symmetry axis A2.

[00128] As shown in FIG. 9, the plurality of first actuators 31 and the plurality of second actuators 32 are arranged in a cross shape.

[00129] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 9, the touch surface SO is a polygon, and the third actuators 33 are disposed close to the comers of the polygon. In FIG. 9, the touch surface SO is a quadrilateral, and the third actuators 33 are disposed close to the four corners of the quadrilateral.

[00130] In order to improve the vibration amplitude and vibration uniformity, exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 9, the actuator 22 disposed close to the geometric center C of the touch surface SO is timedivision multiplexed as the first actuator 31, the second actuator 32 and the third actuator 33, that is, the first actuator 31 or the second actuator 32 disposed close to the geometric center C is time-division multiplexed as the third actuator 33.

[00131] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 10, the plurality of first actuators 31 are sequentially disposed in a staggered way along the second direction fz, and the plurality of second actuators 32 are sequentially disposed in a staggered way along the first direction fi.

[00132] Exemplarily, the offset distance between any two adjacent first actuators 31 in the second direction fz is the same, and the offset distance between any two adjacent second actuators 32 in the first direction fi is the same.

[00133] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 10, the touch surface SO includes a first diagonal line LI and a second diagonal line L2 that intersect with each other, the plurality of first actuators 31 are arranged in sequence on the first diagonal line LI, and the plurality of second actuators 32 are arranged in sequence on the second diagonal line L2.

[00134] As shown in FIG. 10, the plurality of first actuators 31 and the plurality of first actuators 31 are distributed to form an “X” shape.

[00135] In the present embodiment, since the first vibration generated by the first actuators 31 arranged along the first diagonal line LI includes Lamb wave components in both the first direction fi and the second direction fi, and the second vibration generated by the second actuators 32 arranged along the second diagonal line L2 includes Lamb wave components in both the first direction fi and the second direction fi, the first actuators 31 and the second actuators 32 may be time-division multiplexed.

[00136] When the touch object slides along the second direction fi, a first driving signal may be provided to the first actuators 31, or a first driving signal may be provided to both the first actuators 31 and the second actuators 32. By providing the first driving signal to both the first actuators 31 and the second actuators 32, the modulation intensity of the friction force along the second direction fi may be increased, and the texture feedback effect is enhanced.

[00137] When the touch object slides along the first direction fi, a second driving signal may be provided to the second actuators 32, or a second driving signal may be provided to both the first actuators 31 and the second actuators 32. By providing the second driving signal to both the first actuators 31 and the second actuators 32, the modulation intensity of the friction force along the first direction fi may be increased, and the texture feedback effect is enhanced.

[00138] In order to achieve vibration feedback, exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 10, the actuator 22 disposed close to the geometric center C of the touch surface SO is time-division multiplexed as the first actuator 31, the second actuator 32 and the third actuator 33, that is, the first actuator 31 or the second actuator 32 disposed close to the geometric center C is time-division multiplexed as the third actuator 33.

[00139] In order to achieve vibration feedback, exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 10, the touch surface SO is a polygon, and the actuator 22 disposed close to the interior comer of the polygon is timedivision multiplexed as at least two of: the first actuator 31, the second actuator 32 and the third actuator 33.

[00140] As shown in FIG. 10, the touch surface SO is a quadrilateral, and the actuator 22 located on the first diagonal line LI and disposed close to the interior comer of the quadrilateral is time-division multiplexed as the first actuator 31 and the third actuator 33, or is time-division multiplexed as the first actuator 31, the second actuator 32 and the third actuator 33. The actuator 22 located on the second diagonal line L2 and disposed close to the interior corner of the quadrilateral is time-division multiplexed as the second actuator 32 and the third actuator 33, or is time-division multiplexed as the first actuator 31, the second actuator 32 and the third actuator 33.

[00141] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 3, FIG. 4, FIG. 9 or FIG. 10, the plurality of actuators 22 are symmetrically arranged with respect to a symmetry axis, and the symmetry axis is the symmetry axis of the touch surface SO, for example the first symmetry axis Al and the second symmetry axis A2.

[00142] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 3, FIG. 4, FIG. 9 or FIG. 10, the plurality of actuators 22 are symmetrically arranged about a symcenter, and the symcenter is the geometric center C of the touch surface SO.

[00143] In some embodiments, as shown in any one of FIG. 5 to FIG. 8, the plurality of first actuators 31 and the plurality of second actuators 32 have different symmetry axes. For example, the plurality of first actuators 31 are symmetric about the second symmetry axis A2, and the plurality of second actuators 32 are symmetric about the first symmetry axis Al.

[00144] Exemplarily, the actuators 22 utilize the inverse piezoelectric effect of piezoelectric materials to drive the touch panel 21 to vibrate. The "inverse piezoelectric effect" is the inverse effect of the "positive piezoelectric effect", that is, the dielectric may undergo elastic deformation under the drive of an electrical signal.

[00145] In some embodiments, the actuators 22 include at least one of: a piezoelectric (PZT) film, a monolithic piezoelectric ceramic, a stacked piezoelectric ceramic, a cymbal-type piezoelectric ceramic, a monolithic polyvinylidene fluoride film, a stacked poly vinylidene fluoride film, a cymbaltype polyvinylidene fluoride film, and a linear motor.

[00146] In some embodiments, the plurality of actuators 22 have the same structure and size. Of course, the plurality of actuators 22 may also have different structures or sizes, which is not limited in the present disclosure.

[00147] In some embodiments, the orthographic projection of the actuator 22 on the touch surface SO is in a shape of at least one of: a circle, a square (as shown in FIG. 3 to FIG. 10), a rectangle, or other polygons.

[00148] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 2, the haptic feedback substrate further includes: a base substrate 23, and the plurality of actuators 22 are located between the base substrate 23 and the touch panel 21.

[00149] Exemplarily, the thickness of the base substrate 23 is less than or equal to 1.5 mm.

[00150] Exemplarily, the base substrate 23 is in a shape of a rectangle, and an aspect ratio of the rectangle is greater than or equal to 1.3.

[00151] The driving process of the touch substrate provided by the present disclosure is described below with reference to several specific examples.

[00152] In a first to seventh examples, as shown in FIG. 3 to FIG. 9, the touch panel 21 is in the shape of a rectangle, the size of the rectangle along the first direction fi is 120 mm, the size of the rectangle along the second direction fi is 60 mm, and the thickness is 0.5 mm. The size of the actuator 22 in the first direction fi and the size of the actuator 22 in the second direction fi are both 5 mm. The distance between the first actuators 31 along the first direction fi is 7.8 mm, and the distance between the second actuators 32 along the second direction fi is 6.8 mm.

[00153] In the first example, as shown in FIG. 3, the plurality of first actuators 31 are disposed close to two first sides bl that are arranged opposite to each other, and the plurality of second actuators 32 are disposed close to two second sides b2 that are arranged opposite to each other. The plurality of actuators 22 further include 3 third actuators 33 arranged along the first symmetry axis Al, one of which is located at the geometric center C, and the remaining two are symmetrically disposed on both sides of the geometric center C.

[00154] When the touch object slides along the second direction fi, a first driving signal may be provided to the plurality of first actuators 31 (including actuators 22 near the four interior comers) disposed close to the two first sides bl, so that the first actuators 31 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a first vibration, thereby forming a first Lamb wave propagating along the second direction fi on the touch surface SO. A simulation diagram of the vibration mode of the first Lamb wave is shown in the lower figure in FIG. 13, where the frequencies of the first driving signal and the first vibration are, for example, 25.51 kHz. Since the distance dl between the first actuators 31 is less than and equal to 1 / 2 X b and 1 / 2 X j is less than and equal to 10~15mm, the air squeezing film effect can be achieved, thereby forming friction force modulation in the second direction fi. Therefore, a haptic feedback effect of the friction texture can be perceived when the finger slides along the second direction fi.

[00155] When the touch object slides along the first direction fi, a second driving signal may be provided to the plurality of second actuators 32 (including actuators 22 near the four interior comers) disposed close to the two second sides b2, so that the second actuators 32 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a second vibration, thereby forming a second Lamb wave propagating along the first direction fi on the touch surface SO. A simulation diagram of the vibration mode of the second Lamb wave is shown in the upper figure in FIG. 13, where the frequencies of the second driving signal and the second vibration are, for example, 20.2 kHz. Since the distance d2 between the second actuators 32 is less than and equal to 1 / 2 X 2, and 1 / 2 X 2 is less than and equal to 10~15mm, the air squeezing film effect can be achieved, thereby forming friction force modulation in the first direction fi. Therefore, a haptic feedback effect of the friction texture can be perceived when the finger slides along the first direction fi.

[00156] When the touch object presses the touch panel 21, a third driving signal may be simultaneously provided to 3 third actuators 33 located on the first symmetry axis Al and close to the geometric center C of the touch surface SO, 4 actuators 22 disposed close to the interior corners of the quadrilateral, and 2 actuators 22 disposed close to the midpoint Cl of each of the two first sides b 1, so that the third actuators 33 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a third vibration, thereby forming a vibration feedback perpendicular to the touch surface SO on the touch surface SO.

[00157] In a second example, as shown in FIG. 4, the plurality of first actuators 31 are disposed close to two first sides b 1 that are arranged opposite to each other, and the plurality of second actuators 32 are disposed close to two second sides b2 that are arranged opposite to each other. The plurality of actuators 22 further include 2 third actuators 33 arranged along the first symmetry axis Al, and the 2 third actuators 33 are symmetrically disposed on both sides of the geometric center C.

[00158] When the touch object slides along the second direction f2, a first driving signal may be provided to the plurality of first actuators 31 (including actuators 22 near the four interior comers) disposed close to the two first sides bl, so that the first actuators 31 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a first vibration, thereby forming a first Lamb wave propagating along the second direction fa on the touch surface SO. The frequencies of the first driving signal and the first vibration are both greater than 20 kHz. Since the distance dl between the first actuators 31 is less than and equal to 1 / 2 A i, and 1 / 2 X x is less than and equal to 10~15mm, the air squeezing film effect can be achieved, thereby forming friction force modulation in the second direction f2. Therefore, a haptic feedback effect of the friction texture can be perceived when the finger slides along the second direction fi.

[00159] When the touch object slides along the first direction fi, a second driving signal may be provided to the plurality of second actuators 32 (including actuators 22 near the four interior comers) disposed close to the two second sides b2, so that the second actuators 32 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a second vibration, thereby forming a second Lamb wave propagating along the first direction fi on the touch surface SO. The frequencies of the second driving signal and the second vibration are both greater than 20 kHz. Since the distance d2 between the second actuators 32 is less than and equal to 1 / 2 A 2, and 1 / 2 A 2 is less than and equal to 10~ 15mm, the air squeezing film effect can be achieved, thereby forming friction force modulation in the first direction fi. Therefore, a haptic feedback effect of the friction texture can be perceived when the finger slides along the first direction fi.

[00160] When the touch object presses the touch panel 21, a third driving signal may be simultaneously provided to 2 third actuators 33 located on the first symmetry axis Al and close to the geometric center C of the touch surface SO, 4 actuators 22 disposed close to the interior comers of the quadrilateral, and 2 actuators 22 disposed close to the midpoint Cl of each of the two first sides b 1, so that the third actuators 33 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a third vibration, thereby forming a vibration feedback perpendicular to the touch surface SO on the touch surface SO.

[00161] In a third example, as shown in FIG. 5, the plurality of first actuators 31 are disposed close to one of the first sides bl (the bottom side), and the plurality of second actuators 32 are disposed close to one of the second sides b2 (the right side). The plurality of actuators 22 further include 3 third actuators 33 arranged along the first symmetry axis Al, one of which is located at the geometric center C, and the other two are symmetrically disposed on both sides of the geometric center C. The plurality of actuators 22 further include a third actuator 33 disposed close to a midpoint C2 of the third side b3 (i.e., the top side), and a third actuator 33 disposed close to a connecting vertex (i.e., the top left comer) of the third side b3 and the fourth side b4 (i.e., the left side).

[00162] When the touch object slides along the second direction fi, a first driving signal may be provided to the plurality of first actuators 31 (including actuators 22 near the bottom left corner and the bottom right corner) disposed close to the one first side b 1, so that the first actuators 31 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a first vibration, thereby forming a first Lamb wave propagating along the second direction fi on the touch surface SO. The frequencies of the first driving signal and the first vibration are both greater than 20 kHz. Since the distance dl between the first actuators 31 is less than and equal to 1 / 2 i, and 1 / 2 X t is less than and equal to 10~15mm, the air squeezing film effect can be achieved, thereby forming friction force modulation in the second direction fa. Therefore, a haptic feedback effect of the friction texture can be perceived when the finger slides along the second direction fi.

[00163] When the touch object slides along the first direction fi, a second driving signal may be provided to the plurality of second actuators 32 (including actuators 22 near the top right comer and the bottom right comer) disposed close to the one second side b2, so that the second actuators 32 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a second vibration, thereby forming a second Lamb wave propagating along the first direction fi on the touch surface SO. The frequencies of the second driving signal and the second vibration are both greater than 20 kHz. Since the distance d2 between the second actuators 32 is less than and equal to 1 / 2 X 2, and 1 / 2 2 is less than and equal to 10~ 15mm, the air squeezing film effect can be achieved, thereby forming friction force modulation in the first direction fi. Therefore, a haptic feedback effect of the friction texture can be perceived when the finger slides along the first direction fi.

[00164] When the touch object presses the touch panel 21, a third driving signal may be simultaneously provided to 3 third actuators 33 located on the first symmetry axis Al and close to the geometric center C of the touch surface SO, the third actuator 22 disposed close to the midpoint C2 of the third side b3, 4 actuators 22 disposed close to the interior comers of the quadrilateral, and the actuator 22 disposed close to the midpoint Cl of the first side bl, so that the third actuators 33 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a third vibration, thereby forming a vibration feedback perpendicular to the touch surface SO on the touch surface SO.

[00165] In a fourth example, as shown in FIG. 6, the plurality of first actuators 31 are disposed close to one of the first sides bl (the top side), and the plurality of second actuators 32 are disposed close to one of the second sides b2 (the left side). The plurality of actuators 22 further include 3 third actuators 33 arranged along the first symmetry axis Al, one of which is located at the geometric center C, and the other two are symmetrically disposed on both sides of the geometric center C. The plurality of actuators 22 further include a third actuator 33 disposed close to a midpoint C2 of the third side b3 (i.e., the bottom side), and a third actuator 33 disposed close to a connecting vertex (i.e., the bottom right corner) of the third side b3 and the fourth side b4 (i.e., the right side).

[00166] When the touch object slides along the second direction f2, a first driving signal may be provided to the plurality of first actuators 31 (including actuators 22 near the top left comer and the top right comer) disposed close to the first side bl, so that the first actuators 31 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a first vibration, thereby forming a first Lamb wave propagating along the second direction f> on the touch surface SO. The frequencies of the first driving signal and the first vibration are both greater than 20 kHz. Since the distance dl between the first actuators 31 is less than and equal to 1 / 2 A i, and 1 / 2 A j is less than and equal to 10~15mm, the air squeezing film effect can be achieved, thereby forming friction force modulation in the second direction fz. Therefore, a haptic feedback effect of the friction texture can be perceived when the finger slides along the second direction £?.

[00167] When the touch object slides along the first direction fi, a second driving signal may be provided to the plurality of second actuators 32 (including actuators 22 near the top left corner and the bottom left comer) disposed close to the one of the second sides b2, so that the second actuators 32 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a second vibration, thereby forming a second Lamb wave propagating along the first direction fi on the touch surface SO. The frequencies of the second driving signal and the second vibration are both greater than 20 kHz. Since the distance d2 between the second actuators 32 is less than and equal to 1 / 2 A 2, and 1 / 2 A 2 is less than and equal to 10~15mm, the air squeezing film effect can be achieved, thereby forming friction force modulation in the first direction fi. Therefore, a haptic feedback effect of the friction texture can be perceived when the finger slides along the first direction fi.

[00168] When the touch object presses the touch panel 21, a third driving signal may be simultaneously provided to the 3 third actuators 33 located on the first symmetry axis Al and close to the geometric center C of the touch surface SO, the third actuator 22 disposed close to the midpoint C2 of the third side b3, 4 actuators 22 disposed close to the interior comers of the quadrilateral, and the actuator 22 disposed close to the midpoint Cl of the first side bl, so that the third actuators 33 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a third vibration, thereby forming a vibration feedback perpendicular to the touch surface SO on the touch surface SO.

[00170] When the touch object slides along the second direction f2, a first driving signal may be provided to the plurality of first actuators 31 (including actuators 22 near the top left comer and the top right comer) disposed close to the first side bl, so that the first actuators 31 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a first vibration, thereby forming a first Lamb wave propagating along the second direction fz on the touch surface SO. The frequencies of the first driving signal and the first vibration are both greater than 20 kHz. Since the distance dl between the first actuators 31 is less than and equal to 1 / 2 A i, and 1 / 2 A j is less than and equal to 10~15mm, the air squeezing film effect can be achieved, thereby forming friction force modulation in the second direction fi.

Since the distance d2 between the second actuators 32 is less than and equal to 1 / 2 A 2, and 1 / 2 A 2 is less than and equal to 10~15mm, the air squeezing film effect can be achieved, thereby forming friction force modulation in the first direction fi. Therefore, a haptic feedback effect of the friction texture can be perceived when the finger slides along the first direction fi.

Since the distance d2 between the second actuators 32 is less than and equal to 1 / 2 A 2, and 1 / 2 A 2 is less than and equal to 10~15mm, the air squeezing film effect can be achieved, thereby forming friction force modulation in the first direction fi. Therefore, a haptic feedback effect of the friction texture can be perceived when the finger slides along the first direction fi.

[00180] When the touch objects presses the touch panel 21, a third driving signal may be simultaneously provided to 4 actuators 22 disposed close to the interior corners of the quadrilateral and the actuator 22 disposed close to the geometric center C of the touch surface SO, so that the third actuators 33 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a third vibration, thereby forming vibration feedback perpendicular to the touch surface SO on the touch surface SO.

[00181] In an eighth example, as shown in FIG. 10, the touch panel 21 is rectangular, a size of which along the first direction fi is 120 mm, a size along the second direction f2 is 60 mm, and the thickness is 0.5 mm. The sizes of the actuator 22 in the first direction fi and the second direction f? are both 5 mm. The distance between the first actuators 31 along the first direction fi is 7.3 mm, and the distance between the second actuators 32 along the second direction fa is 6.1 mm. The plurality of first actuators 31 are arranged in sequence along the first diagonal line LI, and the plurality of second actuators 32 are arranged in sequence along the second diagonal line L2.

[00182] When the touch object slides along the second direction fa, a first driving signal may be provided to the plurality of first actuators 31 (including the actuator 22 disposed at the geometric center C) located on the first diagonal line LI, so that the first actuators 31 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a first vibration, thereby forming a first Lamb wave propagating along the second direction fa on the touch surface SO. A simulation diagram of the vibration mode of the first Lamb wave is shown in the lower figure in FIG. 14. The frequencies of the first driving signal and the first vibration are both greater than 20 kHz. Since the distance dl between the first actuators 31 is less than and equal to 1 / 2 X b and 1 / 2 X t is less than and equal to 10~15mm, the air squeezing film effect can be achieved, thereby forming friction force modulation in the second direction fa. Therefore, a haptic feedback effect of the friction texture can be perceived when the finger slides along the second direction fz.

[00183] When the touch object slides along the first direction fi, a second driving signal may be provided to the plurality of second actuators 32 (including the actuator 22 disposed at the geometric center C) located on the second symmetry axis A2, so that the second actuators 32 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a second vibration, thereby forming a second Lamb wave propagating along the first direction fi on the touch surface SO. A simulation diagram of the vibration mode of the second Lamb wave is shown in the upper figure in FIG. 14. The frequencies of the second driving signal and the second vibration are both greater than 20 kHz. Since the distance d2 between the second actuators 32 is less than and equal to 1 / 2 X 2, and 1 / 2 X 2 is less than and equal to 10~15mm, the air squeezing film effect can be achieved, thereby forming friction force modulation in the first direction fi. Therefore, a haptic feedback effect of the friction texture can be perceived when the finger slides along the first direction fi.

[00184] When the touch objects presses the touch panel 21, a third driving signal may be provided to 4 actuators 22 disposed close to the interior corners of the quadrilateral and one actuator 22 disposed close to the geometric center C of the touch surface SO, so that the third actuators 33 drive the touch panel 21 to generate a third vibration, thereby forming vibration feedback perpendicular to the touch surface SO on the touch surface SO.
