PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable operating a capacitance-type touch panel, with a glove kept worn, irrespective of the kind of such glove or even if the glove is an existing used one.SOLUTION: A cover layer 6 with a low friction surface, is provided on one side of an electroconductive member 2 which is formed of an electroconductive material, is of crescent band shape when viewed from the top, and formed into a truncated conical shape when wrapped on ones fingertip, and the one side of the electroconductive member 2 is partly exposed via respective slits 7 formed on the cover layer 6. A self-adhesive layer 8 with an adhesive surface 8A is provided on the other side of the electroconductive member 2. While wrapping the electroconductive member 2 around a part corresponding to the fingertip of a glove, the adhesive surface 8A is stuck on the surface of the glove. On bringing the fingertip into contact with the surface 60 of a touch panel, the electroconductive member 2 exposed via the slits 7 makes contact directly with the surface 60 of the touch panel, and electric current runs between the surface 60 of the touch panel and the electroconductive member 2 thereby enabling the touch panel to be operated.COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT【課題】手袋の種類に拘わらず、または手袋が既存の古い手袋であっても、当該手袋をはめたままの状態で静電容量方式タッチパネルの操作を可能にする。【解決手段】導電性を有する材料により形成され、平面視三日月状の帯状であり、指先に巻き付けたときに円錐台となる導電性部材2の一側面上に、低摩擦面を有するカバー層6を設け、カバー層6に形成された各スリット7を介して導電性部材2の一側面を部分的に露出させる。一方、導電性部材2の他側面上に、接着面8Aを有する粘着層8を設ける。手袋の指先に対応する部分に導電性部材2を巻き付けつつ、接着面8Aを手袋の表面に貼り付ける。指先をタッチパネルの面60に接触させると、スリット7を介して露出した導電性部材2がタッチパネルの面60に直接接触し、タッチパネルの面60と導電性部材2との間に電流が流れる。これにより、タッチパネルの操作が可能になる。【選択図】図1
