Abstract: A keyboard structure capable of suppressing a depth dimension of a keyboard instrument and rearward displacements of key main bodies to thereby prevent plastic deformation of hinges. White and black key main bodies are each disposed for pivotal motion around a common base end, serving as a key fulcrum, in a key depression/release direction via a hinge extended therefrom vertically downward. A rear stopper is provided in an intermediate portion of a key frame, and a contact portion of a stopper contact member is in light contact with a front surface of the rear stopper when a key main body is in a key depression initial position. In a key-nondepressed state, when a rearwardly force is applied to a key main body, the rear stopper applies the contact portion with a forwardly force against the rearwardly force, thus suppressing a rearward displacement of the key main body.

Abstract: A keyboard apparatus of an electronic keyboard instrument, which is compact in size and broad in a permissible movable range at the time of receiving a force exerting in a width direction of keys. The keyboard apparatus includes key main bodies each provided with a key-fulcrum function device permitting a key to be pivotable in the key depression/release direction and including a vertical hinge and a left-to-right hinge. The vertical hinge is formed into a thin plate-like piece member extending downward of the key and coupled to a common base end and the left-to-right hinge, which is formed into a thin plate-shaped piece member extending along the longitudinal direction of the key and coupled to a connecting portion that is formed into a plate shape extending downward of the key and coupled to the key main body.

Abstract: A keyboard device is designed for use in an electronic musical keyboard instrument, and composed of a key frame and at least one key array unit mounted in the key frame. The key array unit has a plurality of keys and a common base part which integrates the plurality of the keys and which is fixed to the key frame. The key is composed of a key body having a front end portion, a rear end portion and a top face portion extending between the front end portion and the rear end portion, and a key supporting part which supports the key body in a vicinity of the rear end portion thereof for allowing the key body to pivot around the key supporting part when the top face portion of the key body is pressed downward and which couples the key body integrally to the common base part. The key supporting part is formed below a back of the top face portion of the key body at a position spaced from the rear end portion of the key body toward the front end portion of the key body.

Abstract: There is provided an electronic apparatus that is free of the problems with the prior art and is capable of achieving higher efficiency of cooling the interior of the casing without sacrificing cost reduction and designing compact in size. A casing houses a plurality of circuit boards having electronic parts mounted thereon and at least one high load part that generates heat. The casing has exhaust ports formed therein for heat radiation and exhaust ports for heat radiation. The plurality of circuit boards are comprised of a first circuit board and a second circuit board. The first circuit board is disposed to extend substantially horizontally, and the second circuit board is disposed to extend substantially vertically with a horizontal gap provided between the first circuit board and the second circuit board. The at least one high load part is arranged below the horizontal gap, and the exhaust ports are arranged above the horizontal gap.
