Description

Electronic installation with touch-controlled key
Technical field
The present invention is about a kind of electronic installation, particularly about a kind of electronic installation with touch-controlled key with light-permeable button portion and light source.
Background technology
Along with the arriving of electronic age, people significantly increase the dependence and the demand of electronic product.With the notebook computer is example, and its convenience that has is liked by popular institute, thereby the popularity rate of notebook computer is also more and more higher.In the epoch of present this consumer-oriented, good product does not just have competitive power on the price, the characteristic of product and the convenience of using be all the foundation whether consumer buys, thereby the goods producer do not have half-hearted thinking in the hope of producing the product that meets consumer demand.
For explanation is understood easily, be example at this with the notebook computer, and please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 that known mobile computer 1 comprises a display part 11 and an operating portion 12.Display part 11 is provided with a display 111; Operating portion 12 is articulated in display part 11, and has a housing 121, one push-button units 122 and a switch element 123.Push-button unit 122 comprises a button portion 1221, one linking arms 1222 and a fixed part 1223.Fixed part 1223 is connected with housing 121, and push-button unit 122 links button portion 1221 and fixed part 1223 by the flexible linking arm 1222 of tool.Wherein, fixed part 1223 can utilize hot melting way to be fixed on the housing 121; Certainly, also can fixed part 1223 spiral shells be located at housing 121 (not being shown among the figure) by wearing fixed part 1223.
Please refer to shown in Figure 2, when button portion 1221 is subjected to external force and toward a first direction d1 when moving, because of linking arm 1222 has elasticity, and fixed part 1223 is fixed on the housing 121, thereby producing a back stretch, button portion 1221 when removing, external force can be moved toward a second direction d2.At this moment, second direction d2 and first direction d1 are reverse direction.
Switch element 123, it is arranged in the housing 121, and is positioned at the below of button portion 1221; Switch element 123 comprises a switch 1231 and a circuit board 1232.When button portion 1221 is subjected to external force and toward first direction d1 when moving, button portion 1221 can contact with switch 1231, and makes switch 1231 starts, produces circuit with circuit board 1232 and is connected.
Because known push-button unit 122 is respectively different workpiece with housing 121, the two is combined in the mode of assembling, therefore can occur the problem of assembly failure when producing, and reduces and produces yield, makes the cost of product increase; Simultaneously, between push-button unit 122 and the housing 121, or even a plurality of push-button unit 122 need have the slit 3 that penetrates each other, avoiding the card key, but also therefore has dust and soft flocks to be deposited in the problem in slit 3 easily, increases the puzzlement in the cleaning.In addition, when the light source in the environment was not enough, the user was difficult to clearly pick out the position of button portion, rather inconvenience in the use.
As mentioned above, how solving the above problems real is one of current important topic.
Summary of the invention
Because above-mentioned problem, purpose of the present invention provides a kind of easy assembling, cleaning and electronic installation easy to use.
For reaching above-mentioned purpose, comprise a display part that is provided with display, an operating portion, a button portion and a light source according to electronic installation of the present invention.
Operating portion is articulated in display part, and comprises that a housing and is arranged at the touch control unit in the housing; Button portion is in the face of touch control unit and be arranged at housing, and and housing between do not have the slit that penetrates, at least one part printing opacity of button portion; Light source is positioned at housing, and vicinity button portion.
From the above, owing in electronic installation of the present invention, do not have the slit that penetrates between button portion and the housing, do not have the problem that assembly failure and dust soft flocks are piled up, thereby can improve and produce yield, and the inconvenience in the minimizing user cleaning.In addition, at least one part printing opacity of button portion, and surface of light source is established button portion, thereby after electronic installation activates, the light that light source sent can penetrate via button portion, so that the user is still clearly picked out the position of button portion at the environment of insufficient light, increase the convenience on using.
