[0035] Arcade keyboard, also known as fighting game keyboard, arcade keyboard frame is an important component of the arcade keyboard. The storage space inside the arcade keyboard frame is used to place electronic components such as PCB boards. Figure 1 A schematic diagram of an arcade keyboard frame is shown, including a panel 11 on the arcade keyboard frame 1 , and a plurality of panel mounting positions 111 are provided on the panel 11 . Figure 2 A schematic diagram of an arcade keyboard is shown, wherein the panel mounting position 111 is adapted to accommodate the function keys 21 of the arcade keyboard 2 and / or an arcade joystick (not shown).

[0036] The arcade keyboard 2 is connected to the terminal device, and the user can operate the function keys 21 and / or the arcade joystick to input control signals to the terminal device.

[0037] A traditional arcade keyboard frame 1 is typically comprised of a front panel 11, a bottom panel 12, and four side panels 13, forming an internal storage space within which electronic components, such as a PCB 114, are placed. This structure of the arcade keyboard frame 1 requires screws to secure the side panels 13 to the bottom panel 12 and to the front panel 11, making installation inconvenient. Furthermore, the contact area between the side panels 13 and the bottom panel 12, and between the side panels 13 and the front panel 11, is small. If a user applies excessive pressure to the arcade keyboard 2 for an extended period of time, the connections within the arcade keyboard frame 1 may become loose, resulting in poor connection reliability.

[0038] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the implementation methods of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0039] Figure 3 The arcade keyboard frame 1 provided in the embodiment of the present application is applied to an arcade keyboard 2. The arcade keyboard frame can be made of metal or plastic, which is not limited in this embodiment.

[0040] Please combine Figure 1 、 3 The arcade keyboard frame 1 includes: a bottom plate 12, a side plate 13, four connecting parts 14, and a panel 11.

[0041] Four connecting members, one 14, are provided at each corner of the base plate 12. In some embodiments of the present application, the base plate 12 is connected to the connecting members 14 via fasteners (not shown). The fasteners may be, but are not limited to, screws. Specifically, screw holes are pre-defined at the bottom of the connecting members 14. The screws pass through the base plate 12 and are then inserted into the screw holes, securing the base plate 12 to the connecting members 14.

[0042] The side panels 13 are disposed around the base plate 12. In this embodiment, the height of the side panels 13 can be set according to actual needs. The higher the height of the side panels 13, the more storage space the arcade keyboard frame 1 has. The lower the height of the side panels 13, the smaller the storage space the arcade keyboard frame 1 has. Therefore, the height of the side panels 13 is adapted to the electronic components placed in the storage space, and this embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this. In addition, the length of the side panels 13 can also be set according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0043] In this embodiment, two stoppers are provided on the sides of each connector 14. The left and right sides of the side panels 13 are positioned within these stoppers, which serve to limit the horizontal position of the side panels 13. The left and right sides of the side panels 13 are positioned within these stoppers, thus limiting the left-right and front-back displacement of the side panels 13. This simplifies installation compared to the traditional method of securing the side panels 13 to the base panel 12 with screws.

[0044] Since the left and right sides of each side panel 13 are arranged in the limiting portion, in this embodiment, after the connecting member 14 is connected to the bottom panel 12 , the user can directly surround the side panels 13 around the bottom panel 12 .

[0045] Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a connector provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown.

[0046] In some embodiments of the present application, the limiting portion includes a first limiting member 141 and a second limiting member 142; a gap is formed between the first limiting member 141 and the second limiting member 142 in a direction perpendicular to the side panel 13, and one side of the side panel 13 is arranged in the gap. Figure 5 Schematic diagram of the gap provided in an embodiment of the present application. It is understood that the gap d is the distance between the first stopper 141 and the second stopper 142 in the front-to-back direction of the side panel 13. The gap formed between the first stopper 141 and the second stopper 142 can limit the displacement of the side panel 13 in the front-to-back direction, facilitating the fixing of the connector 14 to the side panel 13.

[0047] In one embodiment, the limiting portion may also be other components that limit the displacement of the side plate 13 in the front-rear direction, and this embodiment does not impose any limitation on this.

[0048] Figure 6 A schematic diagram illustrating the contact between the end surface of the side panel and the second stopper is shown. In some embodiments of the present application, the end surface of the side panel 13 contacts the second stopper 142. It is understood that the end surfaces of both the left and right ends of the side panel 13 contact the second stopper 142, which can reduce the shaking of the side panel 13 of the arcade keyboard frame 1 when the user is using the arcade keyboard 2, thereby improving the user experience.

[0049] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 3 As shown, a protrusion 131 is provided below the side panel 13, and a groove 121 is provided on the bottom panel 12 to accommodate the protrusion 131. The assembly between the protrusion 131 and the groove 121 limits the left-right displacement of the side panel 13, thereby reducing the shaking of the side panel 13 of the arcade keyboard frame 1 when the user is using the arcade keyboard 2.

[0050] In some embodiments of the present application, the first limiting member 141 and the second limiting member 142 are both L-shaped.

[0051] In some embodiments of the present application, the side surface of the connecting member 14 is arc-shaped. The arc-shaped connecting member 14 is adapted to the shape of the arcade keyboard frame 1.

[0052] In this embodiment, each connector 14 is connected to the panel 11. In some embodiments of the present application, the panel 11 is connected to the connectors 14 via magnetic elements. This magnetic connection allows the user to easily disassemble the panel 11. Disassembling the panel 11 facilitates replacement of arcade buttons or electronic components such as the PCB 114, facilitating maintenance or meeting user customization requirements. It should be noted that the panel 11 can also be secured to the connectors 14 using screws or other means, and this embodiment is not limited thereto.

[0053] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 4 、 7 As shown, the connector 14 is provided with a magnetic mounting position 143 adapted for the magnetic member; a first magnet 144 is connected to the connector 14; and a second magnet 145 is connected to the panel 11. The connector 14 is connected to the panel 11 by the attraction of the first magnet 144 and the second magnet 145. After the connector 14 is connected to the panel 11, the first magnet 144 and the second magnet 145 are located within the magnetic mounting position 143, thereby forming a sealed accommodation space within the arcade keyboard frame 1.

[0054] In some embodiments of the present application, the second magnet 145 is connected to the panel 11 by a locking screw 146. It should be noted that the second magnet 145 can also be fixed to the panel 11 by bolts, etc., and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0055] In this embodiment, the bottom plate 12 and the panel 11 limit the vertical position of the side plates 13; the bottom plate 12, side plates 13, connectors 14, and the panel 11 enclose a storage space. The bottom plate 12 and the panel 11 limit the vertical position of the side plates 13, and the connectors 14 limit the horizontal position of the side plates 13. Therefore, compared to the structure of a traditional arcade keyboard frame 1, which requires screws to secure the side plates 13 to the bottom plate 12 and the side plates 13 to the panel 11, the arcade keyboard frame 1 provided in this embodiment is easy to assemble, has better overall support, and has higher connection reliability.

[0056] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 8 As shown, the panel 11 includes a first panel 112 and a second panel 113 disposed on the first panel 112; the arcade keyboard 2 includes a PCB 114; and the PCB 114 is disposed on the lower surface of the first panel 112. It will be appreciated that the PCB 114 is disposed on the lower surface of the first panel 112 to facilitate securing the PCB 114, protect the PCB 114 from interference from other electronic components, and extend the life of the arcade keyboard 2.

[0057] In some embodiments of the present application, each connector 14 has a first contact surface and a second contact surface; each connector 14 contacts the bottom plate 12 via the first contact surface; and each connector 14 contacts the panel 11 via the second contact surface. The first and second contact surfaces of the connectors 14 contact the bottom plate 12 and the panel 11, respectively, thereby providing better support for the arcade keyboard frame 1. In addition to securing the side panels 13, the connectors 14 also support the panel 11 together with the side panels 13, resulting in better overall support and greater connection reliability.

[0058] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 6 As shown, at least one support column 132 is provided in the middle of the side panel 13. The upper bottom surface of the support column 132 is connected to the panel 11, and the lower bottom surface of the support column 132 is connected to the bottom panel 12. The support column 132 can improve the overall support effect.
