| Abstract | In a touch module, a ultrasonic wave emitted by the ultrasonic generator undergoes a total reflection in the third substrate. When a location of the second substrate is pressed to contact a location of the third substrate, a part of the ultrasonic wave undergoing the total reflection in the third substrate escapes out of the third substrate, and an intensity of the ultrasonic wave received by the ultrasonic receiver, corresponding to a contacted location on the third substrate, becomes weak, and a pressed location on the second substrate is determined by detecting a condition where the intensity of the ultrasonic wave received by the ultrasonic receiver becomes weak during loading a touch scan signal in turn on the touch scanning lines. |

| Claim | A touch module, comprising: a first substrate and a second substrate provided opposite to each other; a plurality of touch scanning lines located on one side of the first substrate facing the second substrate and electrically isolated from each other; a third substrate located between the first substrate and the second substrate and separated from the second substrate; at least one ultrasonic generator provided at a side edge of the third substrate; and at least one ultrasonic receiver provided at the other side edge of the third substrate opposite to the ultrasonic generator; and a plurality of second spacers located between the first substrate and the third substrate and spaced apart from each other, wherein an ultrasonic wave emitted by the ultrasonic generator undergoes a total reflection in the third substrate, when a location of the second substrate is pressed to become in contact with a location of the third substrate, a part of the ultrasonic wave undergoing the total reflection in the third substrate escapes out of the third substrate, and an intensity of the ultrasonic wave received by the ultrasonic receiver, corresponding to a contacted location on the third substrate, becomes weak, and a pressed location on the second substrate is determined by detecting a condition where the intensity of the ultrasonic wave received by the ultrasonic receiver becomes weak during loading a touch scan signal in turn on the touch scanning lines. The touch module according to claim 1 , wherein the touch module comprises a plurality of strip-like third substrates independent from each other, the third substrates each is provided to across cross the touch scanning lines, and the ultrasonic generator and the ultrasonic receiver are provided at opposite side edges of each of the third substrates, respectively. The touch module according to claim 1 , wherein the third substrate is made of organic glass. The touch module according to claim 1 , wherein the second substrate is made of organic glass. The touch module according to claim 1 , further comprising: a plurality of third spacers located between the second substrate and the third substrate. The touch module according to claim 5 , wherein the second spacer and the third spacer are made of elastic materia A touch screen, comprising: a display panel; and the touch module, according to claim 1 , provided at a light output side of the display pane The touch screen according to claim 7 , wherein the first substrate of the touch module is used as a substrate provided at the light output side of the display pane The touch screen according to claim 8 , wherein a shielding electrode of the display panel is used as the touch scanning line of the touch module. |
