A split keyboard is disclosed that has wrist support members that are pivotally attached to the front of key array sections and thumb cluster sections that are pivotally attached to the key array sections on a transitional side that extends in diagonal direction from a front side of the key array section to a lateral side of the key array section.

The present invention extends adjustable keyboard components. A user can selectively adjust height, tilt, and other keyboard positioning aspects (e.g., pitch, tilt, roll, yaw etc.), to accommodate the specific preferences and/or physical or anatomical characteristics of the user. Keyboard adjustments can tailor a solid foundational position for the user's fingers and hands. The keyboard can include separate left and right modules. Adjustability and separability facilitate highly variable and independent movement of the user's left and right hands. Adjustments and re-adjustments allow a user to make a wide range of alterations to their typing position at any point in time based on circumstances and comfort. As such, adjustments and re-adjustments can (potentially significantly) reduce discomfort and/or injuries associated with repetitive motion.

Disclosed is a keyboard for an information handling system. The keyboard includes a top cover comprising a polyester and a plurality of jute fibers, a keycap assembly comprising one or more keycaps, and a bottom cover comprising a first polylactic acid (PLA) and a post-consumer resin (PCR). The keycap assembly can be positioned between the top cover and the bottom cover, and the top cover can include one or more openings keycap assembly keycaps to protrude through.

A pivot member includes: a first member configured to pivot about a pivot axis; and a second member having a connecting surface, at least a portion of which has a flat surface. The second member is disposed such that the flat surface and the first member are opposed to each other. The second member has at least one surface different from the flat surface. A first identifier and a second identifier are provided on the at least one surface. The first identifier is visually recognizable from a first direction orthogonal to the flat surface. The second identifier is visually recognizable from the first direction and from a second direction in which the first identifier is not visually recognizable.

A key pad device provides the same function as a keyboard or keypad with a mistake proof design that allows one hand use and only requires three fingers. Each of the primary two fingers has nine pressure points, or keys, whose location is accessible by moving left to right, up and down, forward and back, side to side, and center. A thumb toggle can operate in one of three positionsup, down or not toggled.

The disclosure describes a single-handed keyboard for handheld computer devices. A new arrangement of keys is introduced to enable handheld computer device users to input information smoothly with only one hand while holding it with the other hand. Method disclosed by the invention is: reverse the horizontal order of the keys in one hand's area of a dual-handed keyboard and insert the re-ordered keys into rows or columns in the other hand's area to form a single-handed full keyboard with all re-ordered and inserted letters or symbols as separate keys that do not share with letters or symbols in the charge of the same finger of the other hand. The single-handed keyboard may be a physical keyboard, a virtual keyboard or any other types of keyboards. Along with the rapid development of electronic product science and technology, single-handed keyboard will contribute to the evolution of computer devices towards higher portability.
