摘要:
An input device configured to communicate with a computing device includes at least one keycap, a support mechanism operably connected to the keycap and configured to move the keycap from a first position to a second position, a feature plate operably connected to the support mechanism, and a sensing member. The sensing member is configured to detect at least one of a change of position of the at least one keycap, a speed of the at least one keycap, an amount of force applied to the at least one keycap, or a location of a finger. The sensing member may be a capacitive sensor. In some embodiments, the input device may not include the support mechanism and the sensing member may be configured to detect the location of a finger regardless whether or not the keycap moves.

Embodiments of the disclosure optimize yield of a product having one or more switch assemblies and improve impact robustness of the product without sacrificing tactile feel. Based on failure limits of a gap in the switch assembly during manufacturing, a single size for a shim is calculated. The shim is selectively inserted into the switch assembly based on the gap to maximize the switch assembly yield while minimizing cost. In some examples, a bracket is designed for the switch assemblies. The bracket has datum surfaces in three dimensions and a beam tuned to absorb energy during an impact event to prevent switch failure.

In a first embodiment, an input device includes at least one keycap, a support mechanism configured to move the keycap from a first position to a second position, a feature plate having at least one anchoring mechanism operably connected to the support mechanism, and an illumination panel. The illumination panel is positioned between the at least one keycap and the feature plate. The at least one anchoring member extends through a portion of the illumination panel. In a second embodiment, an input device includes a keycap, a support mechanism configured to move the keycap, a support plate operably connected to the support mechanism, and an illumination panel. The illumination panel includes a light source, a light guide, and a frame substantially surrounding the light guide. Light illuminated from the light source is directed by the light guide and the frame towards the keycap.
摘要:
A mechanical keyboard includes a base plate, a key assembly mounted on the base plate and a light source. The base plate defines a number of separate mounting holes therein. The key assembly includes a number of press keys. Each of the number of press keys is mounted in one of the number of mounting holes respectively. The press keys include a number of transparent portions. The transparent portions cooperatively form a decorative pattern. The light source is mounted in the base plate and located below the decorative pattern. Therein, the light source is used to transmit light through the at least one transparent portion, thereby illuminating the decorative pattern.
摘要:
An illuminated metal keycap having a legend diffuser material that may diffuse light through a legend opened in a background layer. The background layer may be opaque and the legend may be transparent. The metal keycap is adhered to a scissor mechanism positioned above electrical switch circuitry. Included within, below, or adjacent to the scissor mechanism may be one or more light sources positioned to emit light through the metal keycap, around the perimeter of the metal keycap, and/or through the background layer.
