Abstract
The present invention relates to a keyboard key which comprises a key contact, a metallic key cap connected with the key contact, and a panel which is positioned on the metallic key cap, wherein the metallic key cap is provided with a notch used for embedding the panel. The panel is made of metal; when the panel is embedded in the notch on the metallic key cap, the surface of the panel is aligned with the surface of the key cap. The panel is provided with key marks which comprise symbols engraved on the panel, wherein the symbols adopt wear-resistant material for filling and pigmentation. The key cap and the panel are made of aluminum material. The color of the symbols engraved on the panel is black. The key marks also comprise braille symbols or also comprise position indications used for blind men to arrange keys. The key contact has one or two key contacts. The structure of the keyboard key can be adopted for enhancing the service life of the keyboard key and reducing the whole cost of manufacturing, using and maintaining the keyboard key.
Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to finance device, relate in particular to ATM (ATM) operation keyboard, particularly the structure of single button on the ATM operation keyboard.
Background technology
The structure of single button on the existing ATM operation keyboard adopts the metal keycap of one mostly, by on the silk-screen on the keycap, in the stickup or the protruding key symbols that carves identify button.The main part of ATM operation keyboard adopts the 4*4 key layout usually, and the 4*3 on the left side is a numerical portion, and the right 4*1 is a command component.Numerical portion, according to by left-to-right, putting in order and be from top to bottom: [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,00,0 .], blind person's operation for convenience generally is provided with the blind person with the indication of key arrangement position on [5] key.Command component according to putting in order from top to bottom is: [input keeps for cancellation, change], wherein keep key according to practical situations, need not or defined function, blind person's operation for convenience, some keyboard is provided with sign on command key.
Because the structure of single button is to identify button at keycap with the key symbols of projection on the existing ATM operation keyboard, on the one hand, requirement just can be carried out other assembly process after the button of tape identification correctly gone into the position in the manufacture process of keyboard.On the other hand, keyboard is permanent use after, sign is because wearing and tearing and thicken easily even be beyond recognition, in case and private label need change, just need the whole keycap of this button be changed, also increased the whole cost of equipment working service.
As seen, how to strengthen the resistance to wear that identifies on the button, thereby improve the useful life of button, and reduce the whole cost of device fabrication and working service under the prerequisite that guarantees the reliable and secure use of button, prior art does not provide good solution.
Summary of the invention
The technical problem to be solved in the present invention is to avoid above-mentioned the deficiencies in the prior art part, and proposes the structure of single button on a kind of ATM operation keyboard, the useful life that can improve button, the whole cost of reduction device fabrication and working service.
The technical scheme that the present invention solves the problems of the technologies described above employing is, manufacture a kind of keyboard, comprise the button contact, also comprise the metal keycap that is connected with described key contacts, and being positioned at panel on this metal keycap, described metal keycap is provided with the fluting in order to the described panel of setting-in.
Described panel is a metal material.
Described panel is embedded in when fluting is interior on the metal keycap, and its surface is concordant with key cap surface.
Described panel is provided with marking keys.
Described marking keys is included in the symbol that carves on the panel.
The described symbol that carves on panel adopts the high-abrasive material filled coloring.
Described keycap and panel adopt aluminium, and the symbol that carves on panel black.
Described marking keys also comprises sign.
Described marking keys comprises that also the blind person indicates with the key arrangement position.
Described button contact has one or two.
Compare with prior art, keyboard of the present invention, because sign is that intaglio is on panel, it is conspicuous that the existing button that its resistance to wear is general relatively is greatly enhanced, and sign be arranged on can with panel that keycap separates on, in the course of processing of keyboard, can consider the particular location of certain key so, can after finishing, the keyboard integral installation embed the panel of band respective identification again, and the maintenance work of changing sign in the future also only involves the operation of counter plate, thereby the integral body that can reduce equipment is made maintenance cost.

Embodiment
Be described in detail below in conjunction with the most preferred embodiment of the present invention shown in the accompanying drawing
Keyboard of the present invention as shown in Figure 1, comprises button contact 30, the metal keycap 10 that is connected with described key contacts 30, and be positioned at panel 20 on this metal keycap 10; Described metal keycap 10 is provided with the fluting in order to setting-in panel 20.Actual metal keycap 10 bottoms and button contact 30 junctions are positioned at the groove of metal keycap 10 bottoms.In order to strengthen the reliability of button operation, user's actuation of keys is delivered to button contact 30 by keycap 10 equably, again by this contact 30 inducing switch button contactors action, specially button contact 30 is designed to less than metal keycap 10 bottoms, and is inlaid in recessed being pickled with grains or in wine of metal keycap 10 bottoms.
Fig. 2 has provided the button distribution situation of keyboard body, and the left side is the numerical portion of 4*3, and the right is the command component of 4*1.For the numerical portion of ATM operation keyboard main body, button adopts a contact to get final product, and for command component, because the keycap lengthwise dimension is bigger, can adopt two contacts.
Fig. 3 to 8 panel construction that specifically provides some buttons:
As can be seen from Fig. 8, the blank face plate of sign not being set, is a rectangular slab.
As can be seen from Fig. 3, the structure of numerical portion button, Aspect Ratio, numerical chracter 0 is arranged on the lower right of panel, and numerical chracter 0 is to be engraved on the panel, and in cutting the blacking of filling wear-resisting, adopting adapted black character under the situation of aluminum panel like this, owing to be that embedding is carved, button useful life can be very long on the one hand, collocation of colour is also very eye-catching on the one hand, and attractive in appearance.
