DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0023] Example 1: This example is intended to help solve the problem that most keyboard trays are installed on the desktop and cannot store the keyboard. The keyboard tray is fixed on the desktop, and the keyboard occupies part of the desktop space when in use, which may reduce the available working area on the desktop. Especially when the desktop space is limited, it may affect the placement of other work items. Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 5A hidden keyboard tray includes a work table 110 and a keyboard tray body 111. A storage slot 112 is provided in the work table 110. The keyboard tray body 111 is slidably inserted in the storage slot 112. A fixed block 113 is movably hinged on the side of the keyboard tray body 111 close to the storage slot 112. The fixed block 113 is slidably inserted in the storage slot 112. A handle 114 for easy pulling is installed on the front side of the keyboard tray body 111. A groove 115 is provided at the bottom of the keyboard tray body 111. A support rod 116 for supporting the keyboard tray body 111 is provided in the groove 115.
[0024] A slider 117 is mounted on the fixed block 113. A corresponding groove 118 is defined within the receiving slot 112. The groove 118 communicates with the receiving slot 112, and the slider 117 slides along the groove 118. Several rubber damping balls 119 are located at the hinged joint between the keyboard tray body 111 and the fixed block 113.
[0025] A block 120 is installed at the end of the support rod 116. The block 120 is set as a rubber block. A slot 121 corresponding to the block 120 is opened on the work table 110. The block 120 is engaged with the slot 121. A spring 122 is set in the slot 121, and the end of the spring 122 is in contact with the block 120.
[0026] The keyboard support body 111 has a rotation slot 123 on the front side, into which a reel rod 124 is rotatably inserted. A control cord 125 is mounted on the support rod 116. An empty slot 126 is provided in the keyboard support, through which the end of the control cord 125 passes and is wrapped around the reel rod 124. The empty slot 126 is located above the rotation slot 123, and a control button 127 is mounted on the end of the reel rod 124 for easy control.
[0027] When the user does not need to use the keyboard tray, the keyboard tray body 111 will slide and plug into the storage slot 112 of the work table 110 to save desktop space. At this time, the fixing block 113 is inserted into the storage slot 112 through the slider 117 to ensure that the keyboard tray body 111 is safely and firmly stored in the work table 110.
[0028] The user gently pulls the handle 114 on the front side of the keyboard support body 111, and the keyboard support body 111 will slide outward and be pulled out of the storage slot 112. At this time, the fixed block 113 cooperates with the slide groove 118 in the storage slot 112, and will slide together under the drive of the slider 117, maintaining a hinged state. When the keyboard support body 111 is pulled out to the appropriate position, the support rod 116 automatically unfolds and supports the keyboard support body 111. The block 120 of the support rod 116 will engage with the slot 121 on the work table 110 to ensure the stability of the keyboard support body 111 when in use.
[0029] At this point, the user can place the keyboard on the keyboard support body 111 and enjoy a comfortable typing experience. Due to the design of the groove 115 at the bottom, the support rod 116 provides a certain slope, which helps to improve the user's comfort while reducing the pressure on the wrist. If the user needs to move the keyboard support, he can easily move it to the appropriate position by grasping the handle 114. Throughout the process, the hinged design and the buffering effect of the damping ball 119 will make the operation smoother and less prone to violent shaking. After use, the user controls the control button 127 on the front side and gently pulls the control rope 125. Correspondingly, the winding rod 124 will rewind the control rope 125 and the support rod 116 will also be retracted. The user uses the handle 114 to push the keyboard support body 111 back into the storage slot 112 until it slides completely into the storage slot 112 and docks with the slide slot 118 to complete the storage.
[0030] In the stowed state, the connection between the fixing block 113 and the palm rest body ensures its stability inside the desktop. The use of the damping ball 119 can also reduce the vibration caused by external forces and ensure the durability of the component during use.
[0031] In this embodiment: by sliding the keyboard tray body 111 into the storage slot 112 of the work table 110 when not in use, desktop space is effectively saved, the desktop is more tidy, and it is convenient to place other work items. The design of the hidden keyboard tray allows the keyboard and tray to be completely stored under the desktop when the keyboard tray is not needed, thereby increasing the effective working area of the desktop. Especially when the desktop space is limited, the utilization rate of the desktop is significantly improved. By designing the sliding connection between the fixed block 113 and the slider 117, the keyboard tray body 111 can be easily pulled out and pushed in from the storage slot 112, and the operation is simple and convenient.
[0032] Example 2: This example is intended to help solve the problem of keyboard sliding or accidental movement during use. This example is an improvement based on Example 1. For details, please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 5 The keyboard support body 111 is equipped with two limit rods 130 for limiting the keyboard. The two limit rods 130 are arranged in parallel. The keyboard support is equipped with support pads 131, which are latex pads and are located on the sides of the limit rods 130. The use of latex pads increases the comfort of the support pads 131 and improves the user's touch, making the wrists and palms feel more comfortable when using the keyboard for a long time and reducing fatigue.
[0033] In this embodiment: the setting of the limit rod 130 can effectively prevent the keyboard from sliding or accidentally moving during use, ensuring that the keyboard always remains in the predetermined position, thereby improving the stability of use. At the same time, by installing a parallel limit rod 130 on the keyboard support body 111, the fixing effect of the keyboard can be increased, avoiding vibration or shaking caused by instability during typing or operation.
[0034] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as first and second, etc., are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "comprises," "comprising," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that includes a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not explicitly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.
[0035] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as within the scope of protection of the present invention.
