KEYBOARD WITH RECYCLED AND BIODEGRADABLE COMPOSITE MATERIAL FOR AN INFORMATION HANDLING SYSTEM
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.
Adjustable keyboard
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.

MECHANICAL KEYPAD
Mechanical keypads are disclosed. According to one embodiment, a mechanical keypad may include a key cap comprising a post extending from a bottom surface thereof; a structural element comprising a passage configured to receive the post therethrough; and a key securing device that securely receives, through the passage, the post in a recess or opening formed therein, and comprising a key switch interface on a lower surface thereof. The key cap and the key securing device may move substantially in unison when the key post is securely received in the key securing device.
