Abstract

A keyboard comprises keys (1), projecting from respective housings (2) formed in the front wall (3) of a control panel 1 of an electrical appliance. The keys are made by moulding in a silicone sheet (4) and each has one end (5) bearing a conducting zone (6) arranged to face two electric contacts (7) on a printed circuit plate (8), the key being mounted to be movable over a predetermined extent of travel (d). The external surface (17) of the front wall (3) is covered by a membrane (18) made of semi-rigid plastics material and comprising, facing each housing (2), a blister (19) having the shape of a spherical cap the height (h) of which is equal to or slightly greater than the predetermined extent of travel (d) of the key. <IMAGE> [GB2234115A]
