Patent ID: 8735730

Claim:
A touch panel comprising: a display sheet; an adhesion layer provided on a lower surface of the display sheet; an upper substrate adhered to the lower surface of the display sheet via the adhesion layer; an upper conductive layer provided on a lower surface of the upper substrate; an upper electrode connected to the upper conductive layer; a lower conductive layer having an upper surface that faces a lower surface of the upper conductive layer with a predetermined interval provided between the upper surface of the lower conductive layer and the lower surface of the upper conductive layer; a lower substrate provided on a lower surface of the lower conductive layer; a lower electrode connected to the lower conductive layer; a spacer made of an insulating material and fitting a peripheral inner fringe between the upper substrate and the lower substrate; a wiring board having a plurality of wiring patterns; and a connection portion that connects the upper electrode and the lower electrode to the plurality of wiring patterns of the wiring board, wherein the lower surface of the display sheet has a non-adhesive portion exposed from the adhesion layer, the non-adhesive portion of the lower surface of the display sheet faces an upper surface of the connection portion, and the non-adhesive portion includes a space directly above the upper surface of the connection portion and a part of the spacer which faces the connection portion.
