摘要:
The invention relates to a contact element (7) for the intermittent contacting of conductor tracks (2, 3) on a circuit board, in particular, for flexible touch pads (4-6), for example for flexible input devices in the automobile industry. According to the invention, a very reliable construction which is particularly suitable for high voltage applications may be achieved, whereby the contact element is made from a metal foam (8). The metal foam is preferably at least partly infiltrated by an elastomeric material which can also be the material of construction of the touchpad. The invention further relates to a method for production of said contact element and touchpads/input devices with such contact pads and the use of said contact pads (7).

Disclosed is a capacitance keyboard switching device comprising a fixed electrode formed on one surface of a first insulating film, a movable electrode formed on one surface of a second insulating film, a spacer interposed between the first and second insulating films and provided with a switching opening formed though the spacer for allowing the fixed and movable electrodes to come close to and separate from each other with one of the first and second insulating films interposed between the fixed and movable electrodes, a movable electrode depressing member provided with a depressing portion for depressing the movable electrode to cause the movable electrode to come close to the fixed electrode through the one insulating film, in order to keep the movable electrode flat when the movable electrode is depressed toward the fixed electrode, the depressing portion is provided with a surface area selected to be larger than a surface area of the movable electrode so that the surface area of the depressing member completely covers the surface area of the movable electrode when the depressing portion depresses the movable electrode, or the second insulating film is provided with slots formed therein.

A keyboard including an upper casing (2) which has a key-holder member (4) for movably supporting keys (8) with a movable electrode (13), and a lower casing (4) which has an integrally formed upraised portion (12) which defines a recess (12b) open in the bottom wall (3a) of the lower casing. A printed-circuit board (14) is held in direct contact with the top wall (12a) of the upraised portion of the lower casing such that stationary electrodes (18) on the printed-circuit board are opposite to the corresponding movable electrodes. The printed-circuit board may be a flexible film-like member, on which an elastic sheet (16) having elastically collapsible cap portions (15) is disposed such that the cap portions cooperate with the film-like printed-circuit board to form enclosures (21), and such that the cap portions collapse upon operation of the keys, for moving of the movable electrodes toward the stationary electrodes. The film-like board has an air vent (19) communicating with each enclosure, while the top wall of the upraised portion of the lower casing has a groove (20) communicating with the air vent, so that the air in the enclosure may flow into the groove through the air vent upon collapse of the cap portion.

Une structure de commutation comprend des moyens de commutation actionnes par les bouts des doigts d'une operatrice, p.ex. dans une machine a ecrire electrique ou dans un terminal d'ordinateur. Pour donner une caracteristique desiree de "toucher" la structure de commutation possede un element de toucher recouvrant la surface de contact, ou element d'actionnement de commutation, des moyens de commutation, l'element de touche offrant un degre de resistance resiliente au toucher et a la pression exercee par les bouts des doigts. La resistance peut etre celle d'un materiau solide ou cellulaire resilient, d'un liquide en mouvement, ou un gaz, ou toute autre combinaison de ces materiaux.

The invention relates to an electronic terminal, in particular a communications terminal, comprising a keypad (514), which has a plurality of keys (522, 524) configured with an operating surface (534, 536). At least two keys (522, 524) are located directly adjacent to one another and guide elements (593, 594) are allocated to the adjacent keys (522, 524) on the side facing away from the operating surface (534, 536), in order to guide a key displacement, triggered by the exertion of pressure on the operating surface (534, 536), between a passive and an active position in a directed manner.

The present invention relates to a switch for use in an electrical instrument. The switch is designed to minimize the friction in switching the operation mode of an electrical instrument. The switch utilizes a single switch body (20) with a conductive member (22) that engages with or disengages from electrical contacts (34) on a printed circuit board (32) in response to the sliding of a cam slide (12) to change the operation mode of the instrument.
