AI Technical Summary
Existing film keyboards are prone to circuit abnormalities in humid environments, especially when industrial keyboards have corrosive elements such as sulfur, which cannot effectively prevent sulfur from corrosion on conductive silver circuits.
The new type of circuit structure that increases the conductive carbon layer and the protective film is used to completely cover the conductive silver layer to block contact with external air and open the ventilation channel in the waterproof rubber layer to keep it unobstructed.
Effectively prevent corrosion and scratch of conductive silver layers, especially to prevent corrosion elements from corrosion of conductive silver layers, ensure normal function, while maintaining smooth ventilation.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of notebook computer structures, in particular to a novel circuit structure of a membrane keyboard. Background Art
[0002] The current market has increasingly stringent requirements for notebook computers (hereinafter referred to as laptops) and their components. The membrane switch in the keyboard is a laptop accessory that has very high electrical performance requirements. A humid environment can cause internal circuit abnormalities, especially for some industrial keyboards, where there are also some corrosive elements. For example, sulfur can corrode the silver circuit on the membrane switch. However, most current membrane switches do not effectively prevent sulfur from corroding the silver circuit. Utility Model Content
[0003] A novel circuit structure of a membrane keyboard comprises an upper membrane, a lower membrane, an upper conductive silver layer and a lower conductive silver layer; the upper conductive silver layer is arranged at the bottom of the upper membrane, and the lower conductive silver layer is arranged at the top of the lower membrane; an upper protective film is arranged at the bottom of the upper conductive silver layer, a lower protective film is arranged at the top of the lower conductive silver layer, and a bonding waterproof adhesive layer is arranged between the upper protective film and the lower protective film; a key point area is opened in the middle of the upper protective film, the waterproof adhesive layer and the lower protective film, an upper conductive carbon layer is arranged on the top of the key point area, and a lower conductive carbon layer is arranged at the bottom of the key point area; the upper conductive carbon layer is arranged at the bottom of the upper conductive silver layer, and the lower conductive carbon layer is arranged on the top of the lower conductive silver layer; the waterproof adhesive layer is arranged with an air duct that is transparent from top to bottom.
[0004] Furthermore, the upper film, upper conductive silver layer, upper protective film, upper conductive carbon layer, waterproof adhesive layer, lower film, lower conductive silver layer, lower protective film and lower conductive carbon layer are bonded to each other or connected by printing.
[0005] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0006] 1. Compared with the traditional structure, the biggest difference is that the conductive carbon layer and the protective film are added to cover the conductive silver layer that is easily scratched and corroded, blocking the contact between the conductive silver layer and the external air, thereby effectively protecting the circuit from corrosion and scratches, especially preventing corrosive elements (such as sulfur, etc.) from corroding the conductive silver layer, ensuring normal function.
