Abstract: A method and apparatus for switching key functions of a touchscreen terminal are described. The method includes: correspondingly setting a second function different from an original function for each physical key; after monitoring that a preset state of the physical key is enabled, executing the second function of the physical key; and after monitoring that the preset state of the physical key is disabled, executing the original function of the physical key. Based on the characteristics of the existing touchscreen operation and in combination with the characteristic of easy operability of the physical keys, the concurrency of actions of the touchscreen keys and the physical keys is realized.

Abstract: A keycap provides glyphs that are selectively visible. An exemplary keycap comprises a housing that has an at least partially transparent top side. A glyph made of a polarizing material is placed on the top side of the keycap. The glyph has a first plane of polarization. A liquid crystal panel is disposed inside the housing underneath the glyph. The liquid crystal panel is larger than the glyph above it. A polarizing filter having a second plane of polarization is arranged between the liquid crystal panel and a reflective carrier plate. Light enters the keycap through the transparent top side and is reflected at the bottom of the keycap by the reflective carrier plate. The reflected light is polarized by the polarization filter. The polarized light passes through the liquid crystal panel, which selectively rotates the polarization plane of light passing through it if the liquid crystal panel is active.

Abstract: A switch structure with display and playback functions includes a base, a circuit board, a holder, a display screen, and a cover. The circuit board is received in the base and has an electrical connection region. A supporting member and a flexible flat cable are provided below the holder. An elastic supporting element in the supporting member corresponds in position to the electrical connection region and is provided with an electrical connector. The display screen is provided on the holder and is electrically connected to the circuit board by the flexible flat cable. The cover covers the holder and the display screen. When the cover is pressed downward, thereby compressing the elastic supporting element, the electrical connector is contacted with, and closes the circuit of, the electrical connection region to connect the display screen to the circuit board. The switch structure features a small internal space and small thickness.

Abstract: A switch panel with an indicator is disclosed. The switch panel has a transparent region. There is a light source disposed in the switch panel for emitting light when turning off a switch body. A shape of the transparent region is projected onto the wall for forming a large area of indicating pattern, and this can replace a night light. The drawback of a luminous region in prior art which is limited to be on the switch body or on the switch panel is solved.

Abstract: A switch structure integrated with a display and playback device is provided. Therein, a lower housing has a rectangular through-hole, a conductor through-hole, a terminal through-hole and a guide post formed peripherally with semi-cylindrical ribs. The display and playback device is equipped with a bus line and display and playback device terminals, and covered with a display and playback device housing, which in turn is covered by a transparent cover. A conductor and a terminal are inserted in the conductor through-hole and the terminal through-hole, respectively. Resilient elements are provided between the lower housing and an actuation element having a guide post through-hole for cooperating with the guide post. Upon movement of the actuation element relative to the lower housing, the ribs on the guide post make contact with an inner wall of the guide post through-hole, allowing the actuation element to move smoothly, vertically relative to the lower housing.
