Definitions

  • the invention relates to a keyboard mat according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the said component in question may be a microphone component, for example.
  • the mounting for example, by soldering said component to the printed circuit board, for example, can be carried out economically only with a set tolerance of +/- 0.275 mm.
  • the pitches of the key tops of a respective keymat become increasingly smaller.
  • the set tolerance of the said component is therefore a problem.
  • the setting tolerance of the microphone component can be compensated by this distance. That is, even if the largest possible setting tolerance for the microphone component comes into effect, the key tops of the keyboard mat do not touch the already mentioned housing.
  • the key tops can also work unhindered in this case, because there is no contact between the key tops and the housing and thus no jamming of the key tops in their function.
  • the said setting tolerance for the microphone component may no longer be compensated. It may come to a contact between the key tops of the keypad and the said housing, with the result that the key tops jam in their function and are useless. In extreme cases, it may even happen during installation of keyboard mat and said housing that the key tops of the keyboard mat completely no longer meet the intended for the passage of the key tops housing opening of said housing and thus the assembly is blocked.
  • WO 00/78015 A1 is a keypad with keys and a button-free area known, the button-free area has a microphone holder, which is connected by means of a flexible element with the keypad mat.
  • the Application US 5 491 478 A describes a unitarily molded sealing membrane with keys and a button-free area with a through hole for mounting a through the through hole of said surface area protruding mountable microphone capsule, wherein the material of the injected sealing membrane immediately around the microphone capsule around a taper.
  • GB 2 266 186 A a keypad having a plurality of keys and a portion having a through hole for mounting a projectingly mounted through the through hole of said surface area projecting mounted. Shaft of a rotary switch or potentiometer, wherein the keys and the area are formed integrally with a through hole.
  • Object of the present invention is, starting from a keypad of the type mentioned, this keyboard mat in the way to improve technically that distances in connection with the associated keyboards feasible are smaller than a set tolerance of the keyboard mat associated component mounted on the one hand through the keypad and on the other hand mounted on a component associated with this component component, and on the other hand always a predetermined tightness between the keypad mat and a keyboard mat associated housing mounted in the State is realized.
  • connection component is also realized in a particularly simple manner, and simply by the fact that the material of the keypad is tapered between the said other keymat and the said surface area.
  • the taper of the material of the keypad mat is realized in a simple manner in the manner with the desired effects that the cross section of the tapered material is S-shaped.
  • Such a design allows a kind of Zieharmonika effect for the relevant surface area of the keypad with tightly held connection component.
  • connection component By means of the said connection component, the said surface region with the passage opening for the assembly of the component which can be mounted so as to be sealed off by the through-opening of the said surface region is flexibly reciprocally movable to a predetermined extent, so that the setting tolerance for the said component can be compensated.
  • the keypad according to the invention that is with a keypad with keyboard head distances of, for example, 0.2 mm, it is possible to fit the keypad with the corresponding keyboard heads first fitting in the openings of an associated housing and then this group of parts with a printed circuit board mounted thereon with respect Component, in the specific case, for example, with a microphone component, which is mounted on the printed circuit board with a set tolerance of, for example, 0.275 mm merge, by corresponding back and forth movement of the respective surface area of the keypad, said setting tolerance of said component is compensated in the Way that ultimately the relevant component through the through hole said surface area is sealingly mounted projecting therethrough.
  • the flexible connection component of the keyboard mat according to the invention compensates for the amount that the setting tolerance exceeds beyond the smaller selected key head spacing.
  • connection component allows a full-surface keyboard mat that is dust and / or moisture-proof over the entire area and thus ensures such tightness in the assembled state.
  • the keypad mat is made in such a way that the component which can be mounted protruding through the said through-opening is a microphone component in which the problem currently arises of having an increased setting tolerance during assembly.
  • the rest of the keyboard mat has in its surface a recess in which the surface area is arranged partially or completely.
  • a recess of the rest of the keyboard mat in which the area is arranged with the passage opening, a compact shape of the keyboard mat results overall.
  • the circumference belonging to said surface area is formed as a component of the connection which partially or completely surrounds the remainder of this surface area.
  • an imaginary boundary between the connection component and the rest of the keypad mat surrounds at least half, particularly preferably at least two-thirds, of the surface area.
  • the area together with the rest of the keypad mat forms a contour section uniformly delimiting the area of the keymat, which does not reveal the transition from surface area to remaining keypad mat in the contour of the keypad mat. This results in a uniform surface shape of the keyboard mat overall.
  • the contour section is in particular a straight contour section.
  • a single figure shows a keypad 1 according to the invention with characteristics 2 for key tops 3.
  • the keypad mat 1 further comprises a surface area 4 which is free of key tops 3 and has a through-opening 5 for mounting a component 6 which can be mounted so as to project through the passage opening 5 of the surface area 4.
  • the component 6 is a microphone component.
  • the area 4 includes a circumference 7, by which the surface area 4 is delimited from the rest of the keypad mat 8.
  • the circumference 7 is designed as a connecting component 9 which connects the surface area 4 and the rest of the keypad mat 8 and performs a bellows function.
  • the bellows function performing connecting component 9, the area 4 and the rest of the keypad mat 8 is integrally formed.
  • the bellows function exporting connection component 9 is realized by a taper of the material between the remaining keymat 8 and the surface area 4.
  • the tapering of the material between the remaining keymat 8 and the area 4 is realized according to the present embodiment in such a way that the cross section 10 of the tapered material is S-shaped.
  • the taper of the material of the keypad mat 1 is realized in such a way that the cross section 10 of the tapered material is formed in a semi-circular shape.
  • the housing which has an opening for the keyboard heads 3 of the keypad mat 1, within which in the mounted state of the keypad mat 1, the keyboard heads 3 are arranged.
