This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201310266061.8 filed on Jun. 28, 2013 in the China Intellectual Property Office, the contents of which are incorporated by reference herein.
The subject matter herein generally relates to a keyboard of an electronic device
An electronic device can include an input device such as a keyboard, a mouse, or a trackball. The keyboard includes a base and a plurality of keys. The keys can be pressed relative to the base. A space is left between the key and the base.
Implementations of the present technology will be described, by way of example only, with reference to the attached figures.
It will be appreciated that for simplicity and clarity of illustration, where appropriate, reference numerals have been repeated among the different figures to indicate corresponding or analogous elements. In addition, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments described herein. However, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that the embodiments described herein can be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, methods, procedures and components have not been described in detail so as not to obscure the related relevant feature being described. The drawings are not necessarily to scale and the proportions of certain parts may be exaggerated to better illustrate details and features. The description is not to be considered as limiting the scope of the embodiments described herein.
Several definitions that apply throughout this disclosure will now be presented.
The term “coupled” is defined as connected, whether directly or indirectly through intervening components, and is not necessarily limited to physical connections. The connection can be such that the objects are permanently connected or releasably connected. The term “outside” refers to a region that is beyond the outermost confines of a physical object. The term “inside” indicates that at least a portion of a region is partially contained within a boundary formed by the object. The term “substantially” is defined to mean essentially conforming to the particular dimension, shape, or other feature that is modified, such that the component need not be exact. For example, substantially cylindrical means that the object resembles a cylinder, but can have one or more deviations from a true cylinder. The term “comprising” means “including, but not necessarily limited to”; it specifically indicates open-ended inclusion or membership in a so-described combination, group, series and the like.
The present disclosure describes a keyboard with a keyboard module.
In assembly, when the keyboard is in use, the shielding member can shield the gap from a viewpoint above a top of the keyboard module.
In another embodiment, a shielding member can be J-shaped in a cross sectional view. The shielding member can be detachable from the frame 30.
The embodiments shown and described above are only examples. Even though numerous characteristics and advantages of the present technology have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structure and function of the present disclosure, the disclosure is illustrative only, and changes may be made in the detail, including the details of shape, size, and arrangement of the parts within the principles of the present disclosure up to, and including, the full extent established by the broad general meaning of the terms used in the claims.
