[0056] The touchpad 30 is provided on the base plate 101 and is arranged side by side with the keyboard 20 in the width direction of the base plate 101. The touchpad 30 is hidden inside the base plate 101, and the length dimension of the touchpad 30 is more than two-thirds of the length dimension of the base plate 101. In other words, the touchpad 30 is hidden inside the base plate 101 and is not directly exposed to the external environment. This design provides good waterproof and dustproof performance. The length dimension of the touchpad 30 exceeds two-thirds of the length dimension of the base plate 101, which means that the size of the touchpad 30 is larger than the traditional design, forming a full-domain touch function. Users can perform a wider range of gesture operations on the touchpad 30, which improves the convenience and accuracy of the operation.

[0057] It is understandable that the leather case 10 is usually a double-layer structure, that is, it is formed by a combination of a bottom leather and a top leather. In order to completely hide the touchpad 30, the touchpad 30 can be arranged between the bottom leather and the top leather. In this way, the touchpad 30 is completely covered with the top leather, which can ensure that the touchpad 30 is well hidden.

[0058] According to the hidden full-touch leather keyboard provided by the embodiment of the utility model, on the one hand, a touch panel 30 is arranged on the leather case 10, and the touch panel 30 is hidden inside the bottom plate 101, so that it can be isolated from the external environment, and has a good waterproof and dustproof effect, ensuring the sensitivity of the touch panel 30, and improving the reliability and service life of the leather keyboard. On the other hand, the length of the touch panel 30 is more than two-thirds of the bottom plate 101, forming a full-area touch, which improves the convenience of user operation.

[0059] In one embodiment of the utility model, the base plate 101 includes a keyboard area P101 and a touch area P102, the keyboard 20 includes a keyboard shell 201 and keys 202 arranged on the keyboard shell 201, the keyboard shell 201 is wrapped in the keyboard area P101, and the keys 202 are exposed on the inner surface of the keyboard area P101; the touch pad 30 is wrapped in the touch area P102 and is completely hidden.

[0060] In this embodiment, the keyboard shell 201 is wrapped in the keyboard area P101, ensuring that the keyboard 20 and the leather case 10 are integrated, the overall structure is more reliable, and the keyboard 20 is protected. The keys 202 are exposed on the inner surface of the keyboard area P101, so that users can easily operate these keys 202. The touchpad 30 is wrapped inside the touch area P102 and is not directly exposed to the external environment, providing better protection to prevent water, dirt and other external factors from damaging the touchpad 30. At the same time, the hidden touchpad 30 also provides a more concise and neat appearance.

[0061] By arranging the keyboard area P101 and the touch area P102 separately, the independent functions of the keyboard 20 and the touchpad 30 are realized. The user can perform conventional text input operations in the keyboard area P101, while the touch area P102 provides touch functions, supports gesture operations and multi-touch. In addition, the keyboard 20 and the touchpad 30 are more independent in appearance and function, and provide better protection and operating experience, which also helps to improve the aesthetics and reliability of the product.

[0062] In one example of the present invention, the keyboard 20 further includes a circuit board, and the touch pad 30 is electrically connected to the circuit board via an FPC.

One end of the FPC connector 301 is connected to the touchpad 30, and is connected to the circuit on the touchpad 30 through a contact point or welding. The other end is connected to the corresponding interface on the circuit board to transmit the electrical signal of the touchpad 30 to the circuit board for processing. This connection method is convenient to connect, simple to route, small in size, and reliable in connection.

[0064] In one embodiment of the present invention, the keyboard area P101 and the touch area P102 are connected via a first flexible connection portion 101a, which allows bending and flexibility between the keyboard area P101 and the touch area P102.

[0065] When the flip cover 102 is placed on the keyboard 20 , the touch area P102 can be flipped to the top of the flip cover due to the flexibility of the first flexible connection portion 101 a .

[0066] That is, when the leather keyboard is not in use, the flip cover 102 can be flipped over the keyboard 20, and then the touch area P102 can be folded upward to the top of the flip cover 102. In this way, a circumferentially closed space can be formed between the flip cover 102 and the bottom plate 101, and the electronic product 50 can be placed in the space, thereby facilitating the storage of the electronic product 50. In the storage state, the leather keyboard can be used to isolate and protect the electronic product 50. At the same time, the touch area P102 is also located inside the leather keyboard after being folded, which can also protect the keyboard 20 and the touch area P102.

[0067] In this embodiment, the keyboard area P101 and the touch area P102 are connected together by the first flexible connection part 101a, and the touch area P102 has the ability to flip over after the flip cover 102 is placed on the keyboard 20. This design provides greater flexibility and convenience, allowing the user to easily open or close the leather keyboard as needed, while maintaining overall protection and ease of use.

[0068] In one embodiment of the present invention, the keyboard area P101 is connected to the flip cover 102 via a second flexible connection portion 101b, and under the flexibility of the second flexible connection portion 101b, the flip cover 102 can be flipped over to above the bottom plate 101. That is, the second flexible connection portion 101b allows the flip cover 102 to be flipped over to above the bottom plate 101 under its flexibility.

[0069] When the flip cover 102 is opened, the flip cover 102 is turned over to one side of the bottom plate 101 by the flexibility of the second flexible connection part 101b. The flip cover 102 can be fully unfolded and kept on one side of the bottom plate 101. When the flip cover 102 needs to be closed, the flip cover 102 is turned over to the top of the bottom plate 101 by the flexibility of the second flexible connection part 101b. At this time, the flip cover 102 can cover the keyboard 20 and the electronic product 50.

[0070] In this embodiment, the design of the second flexible connection portion 101b makes the flip cover 102 flexible and adjustable, and can be bent freely as needed to adapt to the flip cover 102 at different angles and positions, so as to provide users with a better use experience.
