Background technology
Present keyboard is different according to principle of work and key mode, can be divided into four kinds:
1, mechanical keyboard (Mechanical) adopts the metalloid touch switch, and principle of work is to make contact conducting or disconnection, has that technology is simple, noise big, the characteristics of easy care.
2, Plastic Diaphragm Type Servomotor keyboard (Membrane) keyboard is divided into four layers, has realized not having the machinery wearing and tearing.Be characterized in low price, low noise and low cost, most shares that dominated the market, but also have short problem of life-span.
3, the structure of conductive rubber formula keyboard (Conductive Rubber) contact is to link to each other by conductive rubber.Keyboard has the charged conductive rubber of one deck projection, all corresponding projection of each button, when pressing following contacting.This type keyboard is that market is by the transitional product of mechanical keyboard to membrane keyboard.
4, contactless electrostatic capacitance keyboard (Capacitives) uses the principle of similar capacitance-type switch, causes that capacitance changes and drives scrambler thereby change interelectrode distance during by button.Characteristics are that nothing wearing and tearing and sealing are better, but technology is than complicated in mechanical structure.
No matter be the sort of keyboard, all be to come input signal by button mechanical motion up and down.There is big, the bulky problem of thickness in quiescent conditions, carries inconvenience; There is the problem in noise and life-span in current intelligence.
Advantages such as at present panel computer comes into vogue, and panel computer has gently, thin, easy to carry, the user holds computer on the other hand, and proficiency is with the touch-control input information.But long-time when using panel computer, with the hand-held computer of holding, problem such as have easily fatigue, can't let go; With the panel computer horizontal positioned, user's neck, upper limbs are also tired easily, use inconvenience.Improve keyboard, making the keyboard lightweight robust thin that becomes is what be worth to be made great efforts.
The utility model content
