Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Tastatur (1) mit verformungsfähiger Schaltmatte (7) und mehrlagigem Schaltfolienset (3), bei welcher zwischen Bodenplatte (4) und der untersten der Folien (3c) im Schaltfolienset (3) eine Metallplatte (2) formschlüssig in eine Aussparung im Bodenplatte (4) eingelegt ist, um das Gewicht und die Biege- bzw. Verwindungssteifigkeit zu erhöhen. Durch Durchbrüche in diesem mehrlagigen Schaltfolienset (3), durch welche je ein in der Schaltmatte (7) einstückig integriertes Pufferelement (12) hindurchgreift und auf der Oberseite der Metallplatte (2) bzw. der untersten Schaltfolie (3c) zum Liegen kommt sowie durch an der Innenseite des Gehäuseoberteils angebrachte Rippen (10), die an der Oberseite der Pufferelemente (12) aufliegen, wird das Schaltfolienset (3) im wesentlichen schwimmend gelagert. In einer weiteren Ausführungsform ist die unterste Schaltfolie (3c) mit der Metallplatte (2) elektrisch verbunden, wodurch es zu einer Erhöhung der elektromagnetischen Abschirmung kommt. Zur weiteren Versteifung der Tastatur sind mit der Bodenplatte (4) integrierte Verstärkungsstege an Außenseite angebracht, in welchen Gehäusefüße (14) schwenkbar gelagert sind.
