Electronic device
An electronic device includes a haptic touch panel including a touch surface, a housing, a counter mass, an actuator and an elastic plate. The actuator is connected to the haptic touch panel. The elastic plate includes a first portion connected to the haptic touch panel, a second portion connected to the counter mass, and a third portion connected to the housing.
1. An electronic device comprising:
a haptic touch panel including a touch surface;
a housing;
a counter mass;
an actuator connected between the haptic touch panel and the counter mass for moving the haptic touch panel and the counter mass relative to the housing in opposite directions; and
an elastic plate comprising a first portion connected to the haptic touch panel, a second portion connected to the counter mass, and a third portion connected to the housing.
2. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the elastic plate further comprises a first elastic member connected between the first portion and the third portion, and a second elastic member connected between the second portion and the third portion.
3. The electronic device according to claim 2 , wherein the first portion, the third portion and the first elastic member are disposed in the same plane.
4. The electronic device according to claim 3 , wherein the elastic plate has a first separating slot separating the first elastic member from the third portion.
5. The electronic device according to claim 2 , wherein the second portion, the third portion and the second elastic member are disposed in the same plane.
6. The electronic device according to claim 5 , wherein the elastic plate has a second separating slot separating the second elastic member from the second portion.
7. The electronic device according to claim 2 , wherein the first portion and the third portion are disposed in different planes.
8. The electronic device according to claim 7 , wherein the first elastic member comprises a first folded portion, a second folded portion and a first connecting portion between the first folded portion and the second folded portion, and the first folded portion and the second folded portion are located on different levels along a direction vertical to the touch surface of the haptic touch panel.
9. The electronic device according to claim 2 , wherein the second portion and the third portion are disposed in different planes.
10. The electronic device according to claim 9 , wherein the second elastic member comprises a third folded portion, a fourth folded portion and a second connecting portion between the third folded portion and the fourth folded portion, and the third folded portion and the fourth folded portion are located on different levels along a direction vertical to the touch surface of the haptic touch panel.
11. The electronic device according to claim 2 , wherein the first elastic member and the second elastic member are formed of leaf springs.
12. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein movements of the haptic touch panel and the counter mass generated by the actuator are in a direction vertical to the touch surface of the haptic touch panel.
13. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein movements of the haptic touch panel and the counter mass generated by the actuator are in a direction horizontal to the touch surface of the haptic touch panel.
14. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the actuator is a piezoelectric actuator or a magnetic actuator.
