  • Patent number: 5630501
    Abstract: A computer key includes a membrane circuit, an upper base member, an upright elastomeric biasing member, generally rectangular first and second linking frames, and a pushbutton. Each of the first and second linking frames includes a transverse axle, a pair of longitudinal linking arms extending from two ends of the axle, a pair of transverse projections disposed respectively at intermediate portions of the linking arms, and a pair of recesses respectively adjacent to the projections. Each of the recesses is formed with an upwardly facing bearing surface. The projections and the recesses are positioned and dimensioned such that in order to join the frames pivotally, one of the linking frames can be press fitted on the other so as to shorten the assembly time during mass production of the computer key.
