Touch Module Metal Mesh Electrode Overlap for Holes

The patent introduces a multi-layer structure with first and second metal mesh layers disposed at different positions. The first metal mesh layer is disposed at a first position corresponding to the hole or arc-shaped corner, and the second metal mesh layer is disposed at a second position that overlaps with the first position. This multi-dimensional layering increases the effective area for capacitive signal generation without increasing the planar footprint, thereby improving touch accuracy while maintaining the display screen's shape requirements.

The patent uses a composite structure combining multiple metal mesh layers with different configurations. The first metal mesh layer and second metal mesh layer are composed of conductive materials and are arranged in a composite manner to enhance the capacitive signal intensity. This composite structure allows the touch unit to maintain small planar area while achieving high touch accuracy through the synergistic effect of multiple layers.

The patent compensates for the reduced planar area by extending the touch unit structure into the third dimension through multiple metal mesh layers. The first metal mesh layer and second metal mesh layer are disposed at different positions with overlapping projections, effectively increasing the capacitive signal generation area without increasing the planar footprint. This dimensional extension maintains touch sensitivity despite the smaller visible area at holes and arc-shaped corners.

The patent divides the touch unit into multiple segments across different layers. The first metal mesh layer and second metal mesh layer are segmented structures that, when combined, create a composite touch unit with enhanced capacitive signal intensity. This segmentation allows each layer to contribute to the overall signal strength, compensating for the limited planar area available at holes and arc-shaped corners.
