Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electrical or electronic control keyboard.
  • the object of the present invention is to remedy this drawback, to provide an ultra-flat keyboard and to improve its performance.
  • the electrical or electronic control keyboard consisting of a housing, a closing front plate not allowing a magnetic flux emitted by a magnet or magnetic key to pass except at the locations of lights provided for this purpose, a bulb with blades and legs, by light being placed in the housing parallel and flush with the front plate so as to detect the flow passing through this light, a printed circuit in the bottom of the housing and to which the bulbs are connected, which keyboard is characterized by the makes that one leg of each bulb is placed under the corresponding light, while the body of the bulb with the other leg are placed under the part full of the front plate.
  • the tab placed under the light is curved in a plane parallel to the front plate.
  • a cable comes out laterally or through the rear face of the box to connect it to a decoder located at a distance.
  • the lights of the front plate are arranged in a continuous parallel line and a short distance from the edge of the box, the axis of each bulb passes substantially through the center of the plate and the center of a light.
  • the keyboard is strictly waterproof and can be submerged; for this purpose the lights of the front plate are filled with a product allowing the magnetic field to pass through, such as a resin, and the front plate is glued or welded in a leaktight manner on the housing, just as the cable is glued by resin in its exit hole.
  • a product allowing the magnetic field to pass through, such as a resin
  • the front plate is glued or welded in a leaktight manner on the housing, just as the cable is glued by resin in its exit hole.
  • the keyboard is provided on its front face with a label allowing the location of the lights and possibly their numbering. Furthermore, its thickness is reduced to the thickness of the bulb increased by that of the housing and the front plate.
  • Such a keyboard can be fixed on the rear face of a window or any other non-magnetic plate; each bulb can be activated by a magnetic key presented on the front of the glass, in line with the corresponding mark on the sticker.
  • the surface area of the lights on the front plate is adaptable to its distance from the magnetic key, by replacing the front plate, or adding an additional plate in front of the already existing plate, an additional fixed or sliding plate constituting a partial mask, the lights are of smaller diameter.
  • the keyboard consists of a box 1, of shallow depth closed by a front plate 2 comprising lights 3. From this box 1, a cable 4 comes out which connects it to another box 5, containing the coder-decoder device.
  • Fig. 2 shows the body of the bulb 9 arranged parallel under the solid part of the front plate 2. Only the tab 6 passes in front of the light 3. The tab 6 is bent and the free ends of the two tabs are fixed to a printed circuit. This circuit can be printed directly on the bottom 19 of the box 1, or on a special plate 8 fixed on said bottom of the box.
  • an indicator sheet 20 with numbers, letters or the like, above the lights 3.
  • an indicator sheet 20 with numbers, letters or the like, above the lights 3.
  • a magnet 21 facing a mark and a light 3
  • a magnetic flux is transmitted to the tab 6 (and exclusively on lug 6) which conducts this flow to the blade following it to excite the circuit of the bulb 9.
  • the bulb is no longer energized.
  • Fig. 3 shows that the bulbs 9 to 18 are arranged radially, each bulb is in the axis going from the center of the box 1 to the center of a light 3.
  • the non-curved tabs 7 are all directed towards the center of the box.
  • the cable 4 preferably leaves the box 1 through the center of the bottom of the box.
  • the keyboard is strictly waterproof and can be submerged.
  • the lights 3 of the front plate 2 are filled with a resin (or another product) letting the magnetic field pass, and the front plate 2 is glued or welded in a leaktight manner on the housing 1. From even the outlet hole of the cable 4 is blocked with resin according to a preferred method of manufacture.
  • the keyboard as described is fixed or applied to the rear face of a window or any other non-magnetic plate, and each bulb is actuable by a magnet presented on the front face of said window, in line with the corresponding reference.
  • the command is transmitted to the codec-decoder 5 which can be distant from the keyboard.
  • the keyboard is thin, five millimeters for example, and of a small surface, square of five centimeters of side for example, so it is easily accommodatable, see concealable inside a building or a piece of furniture.
  • the thickness of the glass (or of any other non-magnetic plate) is very different depending on the use case, and the magnetic flux which crosses it at a more or less long distance to be traversed by widening more or less.
  • the useful surface of each light is adaptable to this flow, and in fact adjustable according to the distance between it and the magnetic key. This adaptation can be carried out by various means. The technically simplest way is to remove the plate 2 and replace it with another plate externally of the same size, but the diameter of the lights is different. We can also keep the existing plate 2 and fix another plate on it with lights in the same locations but with a smaller diameter.
  • the installer can have at his disposal a set of various plates, the diameter of the lights of which differs according to the category of the plate, and choose at the time of assembly a plate of the category most appropriate for the distance between the bulb. 9 and the magnet 21, whether in the case of the replacement of the plate 2 or in the case of the addition of an additional plate.
