    Abstract: There is disclosed a membrane-type keyboard comprising a support member, a pair of spaced-apart sheets of flexible insulating material having designated key portions positioned adjacent to and spaced from said support member and a pair of electrical conductors each attached to adjacent inner surfaces of said key portions. The depression of a key portion of the top sheet forces the adjacent electrical conductors into contact. Further depression of the key portion of the top sheet moves both electrical conductors and the key portions of the spaced-apart sheets a distance sufficient to provide a positive degree of tactile feedback to the operator.

    Abstract: Provided is a contact device in which all of three movable contacts can be securely brought into contact with fixed contacts. The contact device includes a fixed terminal 37 that has a fixed contact 35, a movable terminal 28 that moves toward and away from the fixed terminal 37 and has three movable contacts 31a, 31b, and 31c that are brought into contact with the fixed contact 35, and a pressing spring 33 that presses the movable terminal 28 and brings the movable contacts 31a, 31b, and 31c into contact with the fixed contacts 35 at a predetermined pressing force. The point of application of the pressing spring 33 is located in a triangle formed by internal tangents of the three movable contacts.

    Abstract: A membrane switch with multiple switch sites in which, at a given switch site, three concavo-convex structures are juxtaposed over a set of switch contacts so that when the key is pressed, the force applied causes the three structures to cooperate to complete an electrical circuit and close the switch. An operator easily can detect when a switch has been effectively closed because of the superior tactile response resulting from the concavo-convex components. Apertured spacers also are provided to allow the contacts to be brought into communication with each other and to provide a distance through which the actuating force must travel to further enhance tactile feedback to the user.

    Abstract: A keyboard switch having a membrane contact point sheet and a push button key for pressing down a contact point portion of the membrane contact point sheet, further includes a housing including a base portion and a casing portion, a key top which is slidably supported in the casting portion and has a contact point pressing portion projecting toward the base portion in an area extending outside a periphery of the casing portion, and a biasing member for biasing the key top toward a home position. The membrane contact point sheet is disposed on the base portion of the housing so that the contact point portion is confronted with the contact point pressing portion, and is formed in a three-layered structure, including an upper contact point sheet, a spacer, and a lower contact point sheet. The contact point portion has a window hole provided in the spacer. A first contact point is formed on a lower surface of the upper contact point sheet at a place corresponding to the window hole and a second contact point is formed on an upper surface of the lower contact point sheet also at a place corresponding to the window hole. The biasing member is a spring member disposed between the casing portion and the contact point pressing portion formed on the key top.

    Abstract: A switching device having an operation button member to be depressed includes at least one contact member to be moved by the operation button member when the operation button member is depressed. The contact member is electrically conductive and a conductive member for contacting the contact member when the operation button member is depressed by a predetermined amount is provided. An elastic member is arranged opposite to the at least one contact member with respect to the conductive member, so as to be elastically deformed when the operation button member is depressed, after the contact member has contacted the conductive member.
