Patent ID: 8279198

Claim:
A resistive touch panel, comprising: a lower panel module comprising: a substrate having a top surface; a lower conducting layer formed on the top surface of the substrate and having a top surface; and a plurality of electrodes mounted on edges of the top surface of the lower conducting layer; an upper panel module adhered to the lower panel module comprising: a protective film having a bottom surface; an upper conducting layer formed on the bottom surface of the protective film and having a bottom surface; a pattern layer printed on the bottom surface of the upper conducting layer and having a bottom surface; an ink electrode mounted on edges of the bottom surface of the upper conducting layer; and an insulation layer formed on the bottom surface of the upper conducting layer to cover and isolate the ink electrode; a flexible circuit board having two ends, one of which is electronically connected with the electrodes of the upper and lower conducting layers; and a separating layer formed between the top surface of the lower conducting layer and the lower surface of the upper conducting layer.
