Abstract: A portable computer includes a display portion comprising a display and a base portion pivotally coupled to the display portion. The base portion may include a bottom case and a top case, formed from a dielectric material, coupled to the bottom case. The top case may include a top member defining a top surface of the base portion and a sidewall integrally formed with the top member and defining a side surface of the base portion. The portable computer may also include a sensing system including a first sensing system configured to determine a location of a touch input applied to the top surface of the base portion and a second sensing system configured to determine a force of the touch input.

Abstract: Keyboards include mechanisms that prevent and/or alleviate contaminant ingress. In some embodiments, a keyboard assembly includes a substrate, a key cap, a movement mechanism moveably coupling the key cap to the substrate, and a guard structure coupled to the key cap operable to direct contaminants away from the movement mechanism. In other embodiments, a keyboard includes a base; a web that defines apertures; keys moveably coupled to the base within the apertures; and a gasket coupled to the keys, the gasket fixed between the web and the base, operable to block passage of contaminants into the apertures.

Abstract: Eine tragbare elektronische Vorrichtung kann ein Gehäuse aufweisen, das eine Wand einschließt, wobei die Wand mindestens teilweise eine äußere Oberfläche definiert und das Gehäuse eine Öffnung definiert, die der Wand gegenüber angeordnet ist. Eine Anzeigebaugruppe kann an der Öffnung positioniert sein und eine Rückhaltekomponente kann mindestens teilweise in einem durch das Gehäuse definierten inneren Volumen positioniert sein. Die tragbare elektronische Vorrichtung kann auch eine optische Komponente aufweisen, die ein optisches Komponentengehäuse einschließt, das eine Kameraöffnung und ein Kameramodul, das an der Kameraöffnung positioniert ist, definiert. Die optische Komponente kann konfiguriert sein, um durch die Rückhaltekomponente abnehmbar an der Wand gehalten zu werden und um durch die Rückhaltekomponente abnehmbar an der Anzeigebaugruppe gehalten zu werden.

Abstract: Keyboard assemblies having reduced thicknesses and methods of forming the same. A keyboard assembly may include a printed circuit board (PCB) and a single membrane sheet adhered directly to the PCB. The single membrane sheet may substantially cover the PCB. The keyboard assembly may also include a group of dome switches coupled directly to the single membrane sheet. Another keyboard assembly may include a group of conductive pads and a group of membrane pads. Each of the group of membrane pads may be adhered directly to a corresponding one of the group of conductive pads. The keyboard assembly may also include a group of dome switches coupled directly to the membrane pads. Each of the group of dome switches may be coupled directly to a corresponding one of the group of membrane pads.
