Abstract: In an elastic sheet member of the present invention, a silicon rubber sheet is supported by a fixed member. A wire group functioning as contacts is disposed at either one of the silicon rubber sheet or the fixed member. In other words, electrical continuity paths, which were conventionally provided at a printed circuit board, are basically provided at the elastic sheet member which is formed of a non-conductive material. In accordance with the present invention, there is no need for the printed circuit board to cover a range at which all rubber contacts are disposed, as in conventional art. Accordingly, the printed circuit board can be made compact, space required for placement thereof can be reduced, and degrees of freedom in design are increased.

Abstract: An electrical switch (12) includes a pair of stamped switch contacts (20) opposed to each other at a gap (22). An insulative substrate (18) supports the contacts and includes a recess (34) below the contacts at said gap. The recess (34) is sufficiently large so that the switch contacts (20) extend into the recess and can flex relative to each other. A conductive actuator (38) is engageable with the switch contacts (20) at the gap (22) to close the switch, with either switch contact being flexible to ensure that the actuator engages both contacts.

Abstract: A key assembly comprising a base (5); a manually operable key (15) secured to, and mounted above the base by, a resilient key mat (26) having an upstanding wall (28). The key (15) is moveable against the resilience of the upstanding wall (28) towards the base (5). A guide assembly (19,20) extends between the base and the key to guide movement of the keys. A membrane (33) is supported on the base (5) and carries a pair of electrically insulated first contacts (35,36), each first contact of the pair being connected to a respective electrical track (37,38) supported on the membrane and extending to a connection location (39). A second contact (22) is provided on the underside of the key or the key mat and has a size and position such that movement of the key (15) towards the base (5) causes the second contact (32) to engage both first contacts (35,36) and thereby electrically connect the first contacts.

Abstract: A keyboard includes a resilient foam layer (28) having an array of holes (30) therein with the layer (28) being sandwiched between a flexible sheet having dome-shaped areas (34) aligned with said holes and a dielectric member (38), the flexible sheet and dielectric member having electrodes (36, 40) thereon which are arranged to complete a circuit associated with a hole (30) when the flexible sheet and member are moved toward each other. A snap action of the dome-shaped areas (34) in the switch movement provides for improved tactile response and switch travel and reduced switch actuating force. Additional foam layers enhance the operating characteristics of the embodiments. A method of production of the keyboard entails determining the operating parameters of a desired keyboard and selecting the relative density and thicknesses of various resilient layers and flexible sheets in the keyboard to determine the switch actuating force, the extent of travel of the switch, and the location of the "makepoint" of the switch at a position between the start and end of switch travel.
