Patent ID: 7830367

Claim:
An analog type touch panel comprising: a touch side substrate having a resistive film on an inner surface thereof; a non-touch side substrate having a resistive film on an inner surface thereof, the inner surface of the non-touch side substrate opposing the inner surface of the touch side substrate; electrodes for connecting the resistive films to an external terminal, the electrodes including an electrode provided on the inner surface of the non-touch side substrate; through-holes formed at a periphery of the non-touch side substrate; a wall formed from an insulating layer provided around an opening of at least one of the through-holes and being connected to the electrode provided on the inner surface of the non-touch side substrate; a conductive paste injected into the through-holes; and a rivet inserted into each of the through-holes from a lower surface side of the non-touch side substrate so that a head of each rivet forms a flat electrode for connecting with the external terminal on the lower surface of the non-touch side substrate, wherein the conductive paste and the rivets form a connecting part for electrically connecting the electrodes to the external terminal by the through-holes, and wherein the wall is provided at a distance from an edge of the opening so as to trap the spread of the conductive paste.
