Title: In-cell touch panel
Assignee: Paneltouch Technologies LLC (Current Assignee)
Inventors: Daisuke Kajita
Filing Date: 2020-02-07
Issue Date: 2021-09-21

Abstract:
An in-cell touch panel includes common electrodes arranged in first and second directions, facing one or more pixel electrodes and separated from each other. Touch lines extend along the second direction, each connected to a corresponding common electrode. Each common electrode is composed of segment electrodes, divided by areas on the gate lines, and each segment electrode within a common electrode is connected by at least one touch line.

Plain-Language Overview of Independent Claims:

Claim 1:
This claim describes an in-cell touch panel that integrates touch functionality directly into the display. It features an image display area with pixels arranged in rows (first direction) and columns (second direction). Within these pixels are transistors and pixel electrodes for display. The panel also has common electrodes, organized in a grid, which serve both display and touch detection functions. Gate lines run along the rows to control the transistors, and data lines run along the columns to supply display signals. Separately, touch lines also run along the columns, each connected to a specific common electrode. A key aspect is that each common electrode is not a single continuous piece but is divided into multiple "segment electrodes" where they cross over a gate line. All these individual segment electrodes that belong to the same common electrode are electrically connected by at least one of the touch lines.
