An apparatus and system for a side actuator arrangement as well as a substrate, and method of manufacturing, for a side actuator arrangement. The apparatus includes a first part and a second part. The first part is configured to mechanically interlock with an edge of a substrate so as to prevent movement of the apparatus with respect to the substrate in a direction parallel to the edge of the substrate. The second part is configured to receive an actuatable conductive member such that, when the conductive member is actuated, the conductive member is able to be brought into contact with at least a first region of the edge of the substrate.

A waterproof keyboard structure and an assembly method thereof are provided. The waterproof keyboard structure includes a keyboard module, and a keyboard frame framing on the keyboard module, wherein an elastic waterproof layer is formed by means of double injection or insert molding on the keyboard frame. The keyboard module is defined with a key surface, and an assembly surface arranged opposite to the key surface. The elastic waterproof layer is clad on the key surface, and the keyboard module with the assembly surface facing a seat is assembled together with the keyboard frame in an accommodating space, thereby having the elastic waterproof layer closely fit with the seat to form a waterproof ring.

Embodiments of systems and methods for on-screen keyboard detection for multi-form factor Information Handling Systems (IHSs) are described. In an illustrative, non-limiting embodiment, an IHS may include a processor; and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by the processor, cause the IHS to: detect a keyboard using a magnetic sensor; and determine, in response to the detection, a position of the keyboard relative to a display surface of a second display, where the second display is coupled to a first display via a hinge.

A coupled structure capable of keeping the coupled state between coupled members without degrading the appearance, and an electronic device including such a coupled structure are disclosed. A coupled structure includes a keyboard unit coupled with a main body chassis. The coupled structure includes a hook mechanism which engages the keyboard unit with the main body chassis when the keyboard unit moves in one direction relative to the main body chassis, a locking part formed at the main body chassis, and an elastic part formed at the keyboard unit, and the elastic part biases the keyboard unit engaged with main body chassis in the one direction relative to the main body chassis when the locking part locks the elastic part.

An electronic apparatus and a method of assembling the electronic apparatus having a chassis inserted into a housing having a face parallel to the direction of insertion of the chassis in the housing provided with push buttons with light guides projecting into the housing. An electronic board is mounted in the chassis so as to extend parallel to said face of the housing and is provided with switches in order to interact with the push buttons and light sources surrounded by a light-tight frame receiving the free end of the light guides. The light-tight frame has a height which decreases in a direction of separation from the chassis, and the light guides have a height which decreases in the opposite direction so as only to be in contact with one another once the chassis has been completely inserted into the housing.

The invention relates to an electronic apparatus (1) comprising a chassis (2) inserted into a housing (10) having a face (11) parallel to the direction (D) of insertion of the chassis in the housing and provided with push buttons (20.1, 20.2, 20.3) provided with light guides (23.1, 23.2, 23.3) projecting into the housing. An electronic board (3) is mounted in the chassis so as to extend parallel to said face of the housing and is provided with switches (5.1, 5.2, 5.3) in order to interact with the push buttons and light sources (6.1, 6.2, 6.3) surrounded by a light-tight frame (7.1, 7.2, 7.3) receiving the free end of the light guides. The light-tight frame has a height which decreases in a direction of separation from the chassis and the light guides have a height which decreases in the opposite direction so as only to be in contact with one another once the chassis has been completely inserted into the housing. The invention also relates to a method for assembling such an apparatus.

In one aspect, a switch assembly includes two or more switch modules of different types and comprising different switch module subassemblies. The switch assembly also includes a switch housing having two or more sets of features integrally molded or formed in an underside or interior surface of the switch housing. Each set of features corresponds to a respective one of the different switch module subassemblies and comprises alignment and support features for the respective switch module subassembly.
