Description

【発明の詳細な説明】 本発明は電子式卓上計算機（電卓）の構造に関し特に薄
型で簡易な構造の電卓に関するものである。
例えば特開昭５１−３０４３３等に見られる技術におい
ては、プラスチック製のケースに一対の電極及び配線導
体を設け、これを上から可動電極が橋絡接触する構造と
なつている。したがつてこのケース自体からキー信号を
導出せねばならず、上述公報第２図に示す如きコネクタ
を必要としたり、また同第６図に示される如くこのケー
ス自体に電子部品を接続しなければならず、半田付、導
電接着材等を必要とするので構造、製作工程は複雑にな
らざるを得なかつた。本発明は上述難点に鑑み、電卓の
下部外装ケースには複数の点状電極のみを互いに絶縁さ
せて設け、その上に一対の電極及び配線導体が設けられ
た可撓性板を配置したものである。第１図にその一例を
示す。１は電卓下部外装ケースでプラスチック等の有機
材で成り電池収納部１ａが１体に成型されている。
このケース１の内面に点状電極２を互いに絶縁させてマ
トリックス状に設ける。その製法は例えば導電性ペイン
トをスクリーン、オフセット印刷等で行なう。あるいは
ゴム板を用いたスタンプ印刷、ステンシルによるスプレ
ー法、ローラ法等が好適である。３はスペーサで孔４を
２に対応して設けてある。
材料はゴム、プラスチック等種種の絶縁材を用いること
ができる。５はポリエステル、ナイロン、エチレンプロ
ピレンゴム、クロロプレンゴム等で成る可撓性板で、下
面に前記同様の導電性ペイントを前記同様の厚膜印刷技
術で塗布し、一対の電極６Ａ及び配線端子６Ｂ配線導体
６Ｃを設ける。
６Ｂは表示器Ｄ、演算素子Ｌ等が備えられた基板１０の
電極ＩＯＡに圧着又は導電接着される。
導電性ペイントの好適材料を考慮すれば下部外装ケース
の固定接点２は６Ａの一対の電極の短絡のみであ’るの
で比較的抵抗の高い安価なカーボンを分散した導電ペイ
ントを用いることができる。６Ａ〜６Ｃには銀や銅等の
金属を含む導電性粒子を分散した抵抗値の小さな導電性
ペイントが望しい。
なぜなら６Ａ〜６Ｃは導通路長を相当必要とする為に、
回路抵抗が高まり信号の劣化をまねく為である。ところ
が一般に金属は金を除けば酸化、硫化等を起し、抵抗値
を増加する為６Ａ、６Ｂ等の接触抵抗が増大してしまう
。そこで６Ａ、６Ｂにはさらにカーボン導電ペイントを
保護層としてオーバーコートすることが望しい。さらに
配線導体６Ｃにも前孔保護用カーボン導電ペイントをす
−バーコードしても良いが、ここはむしろ耐湿性絶縁性
のペイントを配線パターン６Ｃ上又は６Ａ，６Ｂを除く
全面に印刷塗布する事が望しい。前記ペイントにより６
Ｃは直接露出されない為に導電粒子の酸化、硫化を防止
しさらには特に銀ペイントに多い銀移行を防止すること
も出来る。７は第２図に示す如くキートツプ９の復帰用
スプリングで、ドーム８を有するゴム板、１１は電卓の
上部外装ケースである。
【図面の簡単な説明】
第１図は本発明の一実施例の分解斜視図、第２図はその
一部断面図である。 １・・・・・・外装ケース、２・・・・・・固定電極、
５・・・・・・可撓性板、６Ａ，６Ｂ，６Ｃ・・・・・
・可動電極。
