Electrical enclosure, and switching assembly and transfer assembly therefor

A transfer assembly is for a switching assembly of an electrical enclosure. The switching assembly includes an electrical switching apparatus having an operating handle structured to move from an OFF position to an ON position. The transfer assembly includes a driving handle; a first shaft member coupled to the driving handle; a second shaft member structured to be coupled to the operating handle; and a transmission assembly having a first component and a second component, the first component being coupled to the first shaft member, the second component being coupled to the second shaft member. The transfer assembly is structured to move from a FIRST position to a SECOND position. When the transfer assembly moves from the FIRST position to the SECOND position, the first component drives the second component, thereby causing the second shaft member to move the operating handle from the OFF position to the ON position.

A key structure includes a base plate, a keycap and a connecting element. The connecting element includes a first frame and a second frame. The first frame is connected with the base plate and the keycap. The first frame includes a first linking part. The second frame is connected with the base plate and the keycap. The second frame includes a second linking part. The second linking part is contacted with the first linking part. When a depressing force from the user is applied to the keycap, the first frame is swung relative to the second frame. Moreover, in response to a friction between the first linking part and the second linking part, the keycap is correspondingly moved.

Key structure and portable computer using the same

A key structure includes a supporting board, a base board, a pre-stressing force applying assembly, a key cap, a pivot assembly, an attractable element and a magnetic element. The pre-stressing force applying assembly is connected to the supporting board or the base board. When the magnetic element is under the first attractive position, the first end of the attractable element is attracted by the magnetic force and moved to the first attractive position, and the pre-stressing force applying assembly generates a first pre-stressing force; when the magnetic element is under the second attractive position, the second end of the attractable element is attracted by the magnetic force and moved to the second attractive position, and the pre-stressing force applying assembly generates a second pre-stressing force. The first pre-stressing force or the second pre-stressing force reduces the resistance during the sliding of the base board or the supporting board.

Control system

A pushbutton and an electrical switch can be linked to one another so that movement of the pushbutton, for example by a user depressing the pushbutton, can control the switch. The switch can be in a closed position prior to being depressed and in an open position afterwards, or vice versa. A photodetector can be located on the switch side of the pushbutton. The pushbutton can be formed of a material that transmits light so that light can pass through the pushbutton for receipt by the photodetector. The pushbutton can additionally or alternatively be formed with an opening that is sized to receive an object inserted by a user. Insertion of the object can manipulate a second electrical switch, which may control flow of electricity from a battery, for example.

A key switch includes a baseplate, a circuit layer, a keycap and a support rod. The baseplate has a hook and a first through hole neighboring to the hook. The circuit layer includes a first sublayer disposed above the baseplate and having a second through hole, and a second sublayer disposed above the first sublayer and having a third through hole; a portion of the second sublayer extends over the second through hole and forms a first resilient portion; the first resilient portion has four sides, two of which connect to the second sublayer; and the first resilient portion is neighboring to the hook. The keycap is disposed above the baseplate and can move upward and downward in respect to the baseplate. The support rod has a first portion and a second portion; the first portion movably connects to the keycap and the second portion engages the hook.

Key device and multi-legged supporting balance bar structure thereof

A key device includes a base plate, a key cap and at least one balance bar. The at least one balance bar is with a tabular body and is disposed between the base plate and the key cap. The at least one balance bar has an elongated rod and a plurality of supporting legs connected to the elongated rod and protruded from a lower edge of the elongated rod. The elongated rod is connected to the key cap. The plurality of supporting legs is connected to the base plate.

THIN NOTEBOOK COMPUTER MECHANICAL KEYBOARD
20180047530 · 2018-02-15 ·

A thin notebook computer mechanical keyboard includes a reinforcement iron plate, a scissor structure, a keycap, a base, a pressing stopper, a spring and a cover. The scissor structure includes first positioning parts vertically and movably clamped on clamping parts of the reinforcement iron plate, and second positioning parts. The keycap includes fastening parts fastened on the second positioning parts. When the keycap is pressed to a certain extent, an action between a hand touch and a fourth terminal produces a sound of an upward impact against the cover. When the keycap is pressed, the scissor structure maintains balance of the whole keycap without catching the keycap, which ensures a favorable touch feeling. A switch can be directly installed on a printed circuit board and pass through the reinforcement iron plate. The scissor structure maintains balance of the keycap, and balanced movement is achieved without falling short of thinning requirements.
