  • Patent number: 6572289
    Abstract: A pushbutton of a keyboard includes a cap supported on a base board by a linkage comprising first and second links pivoted together whereby the cap is movable from a released to a depressed positions when depressed. Each link has upper and lower pivots respectively connected to the cap and the base board. The links have two side bars connected between the upper and lower pivots thereof. Two spring arms extend from the base board having free ends forming L-shaped offset sections receivingly engaging L-shaped recesses defined in corresponding side bars for biasing the cap toward the released position. The spring arms deform when the cap is depressed. When the spring arms are deformed to an extent, the offset sections are abruptly driven toward and impact a contact surface of the recesses, generating a sound of impact and a pulse-like reaction caused by the impact. The deformation of the spring arms helps returning the cap back to the released position when the depression is released.

  • Patent number: 6570113
    Abstract: A key switch apparatus is provided. The key switch apparatus includes a key base, a key cap, and a collapsible linking assembly extending between the key cap and the key base. The linking assembly is reconfigurable between extended and collapsed positions for displaceably supporting the key cap relative to the key base. The linking assembly includes pivotally coupled first and second linking members. The first linking member is provided with a flexible member that is resiliently biased to bulge transversely outward toward the key cap when the linking assembly is disposed in the extended position. The second linking member is formed with a press member that maintains contact with the flexible member, such that it transversely deflects the flexible member inward toward the key base responsive to the application of a pressing force upon the key cap.

  • Publication number: 20030029708
    Abstract: A key switch, comprising a key base, a key cap, and a first linking member and a second linking member are installed between the key base and the key cap, and a flexible member installed on the first linking member. The flexible member can be a spring, and is curved outwardly at its normal position. The second linking member has a pressing lever that is in contact with the flexible member. When the key switch is pressed down, the pressing lever compresses the flexible member, causing the flexible member to change its shape from an outward curve to a straight line, then further to an inward curve, producing a sense of two-step touch control. When the pressing force is released, the resilient force of the flexible member restores the key switch to its original position, thereby requiring the installation of any rubber components.

  • Publication number: 20030030623
    Abstract: A collapsible keyboard, comprising a center keyboard unit, a left keyboard unit, a right keyboard unit, and a base. Between the left and right keyboard units and the center keyboard unit are connecting members to join them together as one unit. The left and right keyboard units joined to the sides of the center keyboard unit can be folded along the sides of the center keyboard unit. The base serves to accommodate the collapsed keyboard, saving space for storage when the keyboard is not in use.
