Title:
TOUCH SENSOR FOR DOORS OF ELECTROSTATIC CAPACITY TYPE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2006344554
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To solve a problem that in a conventional smart entry system of this kind, whenever a passerby or the like touches a door handle, an electric wave is transmitted to an entry key and power consumption increases to cause a battery dead.

At least two or more sensor electrodes (2A, 2B) formed by conductive member are installed in the door handle or in the vicinity of door handle, and a conversion circuit to convert capacity change of the respective sensor electrodes caused by approach of an object into a parameter of voltage or capacity and a judgement circuit to detect the parameter of voltage or capacity converted are installed. The electrostatic capacity type touch sensor for door generates a detection output by a logical product of the output by these two or more sensor electrodes, thereby, operation which is caused by the touch other than by the user is made few.
