The invention relates to switches (fired when approaching), performed with the use of capacitive detectors, and can be used in measurement technology, e.g. in pressure sensors, flow, etc.

Known design capacitive buttons, described in . №238071 the class. 03 17/955, .22.08.07, op. 20.09.09.

Known button capacitive touch device includes sensitive electrodes, one of which is located under the outer instrument panel buttons of material and connected to a source of AC, and another sensitive electrode is located below the above-sensing electrodes connected to the capacitance-to-digital code and differs in that it additionally contains at least one, for example, laser led to an external control device, the output of which is connected to the control circuit led output of which is connected with the led, located in a rectangular cutout both sensitive electrodes, under the foreign dashboard button of material, and transmitter output capacitance-to-digital Converter is connected to the input of the external control device.

Design enables visualization of the state of the button that leads to a complication of the electronic part of the device.

Known design capacitive buttons provided in the article «Microchip Technology Solutions for the implementation of the touch control on capacitive sensors» on the website (see the Annex to the application) and selected as a prototype.

Known button contains PCB printed on top of sensitive conductive coating of the electrode, which is grounded, and on top of the cover plate (Schild) of dielectric material.

Essential component in the implementation of such a button is variable capacitor. He has a simple structure and sensitivity to touch. As the sensor element built as «open» capacitor, an electric field can interact with the outside capacitive object, in this case the finger.

Value introduced capacitance proportionately:

- dielectric permittivity of vacuum ε 0;

- relative dielectric constant ε material between current conductive coating and, for example, finger:

- area of overlapping S;

- inversely proportional to the distance d between the current conductive coating and sensitive electrode:

With= ε x 0 x S/d

Sensitivity button depends on the distance between the conduct and protective layer. Recommended distance = 0.5 mm In addition, the total sensitivity button depends on the thickness of protective dielectric plate: when the thickness increases sensitivity. Recommended thickness of plate 1...1.5 mm

The capacitance sensor without capacity of a finger is about 5...10 pF.

Ground layer under-shields it from other electronic components of the system. It also helps maintain a constant base capacity that is required as a reference for each measurement.

A disadvantage of known design is its low sensitivity caused by the use of a thick protective plate often required operating conditions, the presence of air gaps between elements of a button, a small contact area finger on the button.

In particular, using the button in the measurement device, such as pressure sensor is used, the cover plate of glass 10 mm thick, which is critical reduces sensitivity button. Moreover, the sensitivity worsen air gaps between the different layers since air has a low dielectric permeability of about 1.

The area of contact when you press your finger is small, which reduces the area of overlap for introduced capacitance (S sankhobe 1cm 2 )

The presence of the display in the sensor limits the size of the capacitive buttons in the variant with the placement of the buttons on the Board.

The objective is to increase the sensitivity of a button.

The problem is solved by the fact that the design capacitive buttons, containing consistently located in height and contact between the protective glass and sensitive electrode is located on top of the circuit Board, according to the invention of the safety glass top and bottom marked transparent conductive metal coated, covered on the underside of the glass placed in contact with him ring of conductive rubber, performed with vertical slits and relies on the plastic ring, under which the electronic Board with sensitive electrode, the coatings are made in the form of sectors, divided by a gap, and the bottom cover in the bottom without a gap on the perimeter of the glass ring of conductive rubber to ensure contact with the sensor electrode electronic Board.

Transparent metal coatings on the top and bottom surfaces of the protective glass provides increase contact area that, in conjunction with the placement under the lower transparent metal coating its perimeter ring of conductive rubber, cleaning the air layer between the protective glass and sensitive electrode on the electronic Board, increases the sensitivity button when you touch its surface.

The technical result - increase of the capacity at the touch of a surface of over conducting electrode.

The claimed design capacitive buttons has novelty in comparison with the prototype, differing from it in such essential features as the presence of a protective glass on top and bottom of the transparent conducting metal coatings, placement under the cover on the underside of the glass is in contact with him rings of conductive rubber, performed with vertical slits and relies on the plastic ring, under which the electronic Board with sensitive electrode execution of coatings in the form of sectors, divided by a gap, dense preload lower cover from the bottom without a gap on the perimeter of the glass ring of conductive rubber to ensure contact with the sensor electrode electronic Board, altogether providing achievement of a given result.

The applicant unknown solutions having the distinctiveness, which in the aggregate the desired result, so he believes that the claimed design capacitive buttons corresponds to the criterion of «inventive step».

The claimed design capacitive buttons can be widely used in measurement technology, and therefore meets the criterion of «industrial applicability». The invention is illustrated by drawings, where presented at:

- 1 - side view in the context of design capacitive buttons;

- figure 2 - type design capacitive buttons at Assembly;

- 3 - type transparent metallic coating on the surfaces of glass.

The claimed design capacitive buttons (1, 2) contains consistently located in height and contact between the upper transparent conductive metal coating 1 on the protective glass 2, bottom transparent conductive metal coating 3 on glass 2, ring 4 with vertical slits of conductive rubber, based on a plastic ring 5, under which the electronic Board 6 with sensitive electrode 7, on its upper side. The cover 1 and 3 (Fig 3) are in the form of sectors 8, separated by gaps 9 and bottom cover 3 is pressed bottom without a gap along the perimeter of the glass a 2 ring 4 of conductive rubber to ensure contact with the sensor electrode 7 electronic Board 6.

Structurally cover 1 and 3 can be performed coated or gluing of films with ITO. Ring of conductive rubber represents, in particular, Zebra strip.

When you touch the operator's finger cover 1 on the protective glass 2 due to the above-described the design of the buttons capacity is significantly increased, which increases the sensitivity button, and it work properly.

In comparison with the prototype of the claimed design capacitive film has a higher sensitivity.

Design capacitive buttons, containing consistently located at a height of and contact between the protective glass and sensitive electrode is located on top of the circuit Board, wherein the protective glass top and bottom marked transparent conductive metal coated, covered on the underside of the glass placed in contact with him ring of conductive rubber, performed with vertical slits and relies on the plastic ring, under which the electronic Board with sensitive electrode, the coatings are made in the form of sectors, divided by a gap, and the bottom cover in the bottom without a gap on the perimeter of the glass ring of conductive rubber to ensure contact with the sensor electrode electronic Board.
