DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0021] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.

[0022] A portable flexible mouse pad keyboard, refer to Figures 1-4, including the upper layer of the keyboard 1, the PET film keys 2, the conductive film 3, the lower layer of the keyboard 7, and the FPC main board 5 electrically connected to the conductive film 3. The upper layer of the keyboard 1 and the lower layer of the keyboard 7 are both made of flexible materials, and the two are superimposed and compounded to form a keyboard housing with an accommodation space. The PET film keys 2, the conductive film 3, and the FPC main board 5 are all placed in the accommodation space. The keyboard housing, the keys, and the internal components are basically made of materials with a certain degree of flexibility. The whole is similar to a large mouse pad. While ensuring the original keyboard functions, it can also be rolled up for storage or carrying, which can reduce the space occupied during carrying and storage. Secondly, the internal electronic components are completely wrapped by the upper layer of the keyboard 1 and the lower layer of the keyboard 7, which can also ensure the overall waterproof performance of the keyboard.

[0023] Among them, the upper layer of the keyboard 1 and the lower layer of the keyboard 7 are preferably bonded and sewn together, but this is not limited here.

[0024] Furthermore, the upper layer of the keyboard 1 is divided into a key usage area and a mouse usage area 103. The PET film keys 2 are arranged on the upper surface of the conductive film 3 and are located below the key usage area. The keyboard housing is divided into a key usage area and a mouse usage area. When using the mouse, place the mouse correspondingly on the mouse usage area 103 for operation, and there is no need to purchase and carry an extra mouse pad.

[0025] Furthermore, multiple key protrusions 101 corresponding to the PET film keys 2 are formed protruding on the key usage area. Each key protrusion 101 corresponds to a key, which can facilitate users to locate the key positions. Symbols corresponding to the keys (not shown in the figure) are provided above each key protrusion 101.

[0026] Furthermore, there is a gap between the key usage area and the mouse usage area 103, which can prevent the irregular protrusions after rolling up from squeezing and damaging the keyboard while conforming to the user's usage habits.

[0027] Furthermore, a POGOP IN 501 is integrated on the FPC main board 5. An avoidance hole 102 corresponding to the POGOP IN 501 is opened on the upper layer of the keyboard 1. Adsorption magnets 6 are also arranged on both sides of the POGOP IN 501. The adsorption magnets 6 are attached to the FPC main board 5. The upper layer of the keyboard 1 is also provided with a magnet avoidance hole corresponding to the adsorption magnets 6. When combined with the computer, connect the USB cable (not shown in the figure) with a POGOP IN female socket to the POGOP IN 501 in the upper left corner of the keyboard, and then insert the other end of the USB cable into the computer. The additionally designed adsorption magnets 6 can increase the connection strength with the USB cable (equipped with a magnetic component that attracts the adsorption magnets 6).

[0028] Further, the upper layer 1 and the lower layer 7 of the keyboard are made of PU material, which has the advantages of being resistant to bending, waterproof, good softness, and high tensile strength, so as to meet the requirements of multiple winding operations of the keyboard.

[0029] Further, a support thin sheet 4 with the same shape as the conductive film 3 is also arranged at the bottom of the conductive film 3. The support thin sheet 4 is made of PI material. While having high hardness and strength, the PI material also has good fatigue resistance and can be used as the support material of the conductive film 3. Moreover, due to its good fatigue resistance, it is not easy to crack and break even under cyclic loads such as repeated bending, stretching, and compression.

[0030] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
