Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of laptop computer technology, specifically to a keyboard support. Background Technology

[0002] As laptops continue to evolve towards lighter designs, the market's demands for the weight and thickness of various components are increasing, making weight reduction and thinning a crucial industry trend. Currently, most keyboard supports are made of iron, which results in a relatively heavy weight. This excessive weight makes it difficult to effectively reduce the overall weight of the laptop, hindering progress in lightweight design and failing to meet current consumer expectations for thin and portable laptops. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to address the defects and shortcomings of the existing technology by providing a key core bracket made of high-strength aluminum, which has the advantages of reducing weight and being thinner, while also enhancing the supporting strength of the aluminum material.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a key core support, comprising a support body made of hard aluminum, wherein the support body is provided with multiple protruding ribs for supporting the keyboard key core.

[0005] The present invention is further provided that a plurality of the aforementioned convex ribs are arranged to form a clearance groove for avoiding parts.

[0006] The present invention further provides that the support body is provided with a clearance recess.

[0007] The present invention further provides that the bracket body has a screw post for fixing the main board component on the side opposite to the convex rib.

[0008] The present invention further provides that the bracket body is provided with a through hole for the positioning post of the plastic part to pass through.

[0009] The present invention further provides that the bracket body is provided with a plurality of avoidance holes for avoiding the module device.

[0010] The present invention further provides that the bracket body has a plurality of mounting holes on its periphery.

[0011] After adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: In this utility model, by setting a support body and multiple ribs on the support body, when the laptop keyboard is subjected to key pressure, the ribs can act as "reinforcing ribs" to disperse the pressure, prevent the support from deforming, and ensure that the keyboard core maintains a stable position during normal use. Therefore, the key core support made of high-strength aluminum material can not only reduce the weight to achieve a thin and light state, but also enhance the support force, effectively solving the problem of low strength and insufficient support force of aluminum material. Attached Figure Description

[0012] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model or the prior art, the drawings used in the description of the embodiments or the prior art will be briefly introduced below. Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative effort.

[0016] Explanation of reference numerals in the attached drawings: 100, bracket body; 200, raised rib; 300, clearance groove; 400, clearance recess; 500, screw post; 600, through hole; 700, clearance hole; 800, mounting hole. Detailed Implementation

[0017] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0018] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment without contributing any inventive element, but as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present utility model, they are protected by patent law.

[0019] This embodiment relates to a key core support, as shown in the reference... Figures 1-2The system includes a stand body 100 made of hard aluminum, a material that helps reduce the overall weight of the laptop while maintaining good mechanical strength and durability. Multiple raised ribs 200 on the stand body 100 support the keyboard keys. Since aluminum itself has relatively low strength, the raised ribs 200 on the stand body 100 effectively enhance the support capacity of the keyboard key support. When the laptop keyboard is subjected to key pressure, the raised ribs 200 act like reinforcing ribs, dispersing the pressure, preventing the stand from deforming, and ensuring the keyboard keys maintain a stable position during normal use. Specifically, the raised ribs 200 are formed by stamping, increasing the structural strength of the stand body 100 without significantly increasing the material usage, further achieving the goal of weight reduction.

[0020] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 2 Multiple raised ribs 200 are arranged to form a clearance groove 300 for avoiding parts. In the internal structure of a laptop keyboard, many different components are closely arranged. The clearance groove 300 is to leave space for other components that may interfere with it, ensuring that the components do not collide or squeeze each other during assembly and use.

[0021] In this embodiment, the support body 100 is also provided with recesses 400 to better adapt to the shape and layout of the laptop keyboard. Multiple recesses are provided, and they are evenly distributed on the surface of the support body 100. Some special keys or structures on the keyboard require specific space; the recesses 400 provide suitable positions for these components, ensuring the keyboard can be mounted flat on the support. At the same time, the recesses 400 also help control the overall thickness of the keycap support, further achieving weight and thinning.

[0022] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 3 The bracket body 100 has a screw post 500 for fixing the motherboard component on the side facing away from the rib 200. The motherboard component is connected to the screw post 500 by screws, ensuring a stable connection of the motherboard component inside the laptop and preventing poor contact or damage to internal components due to loosening. At the same time, the fixed connection between the motherboard component and the keyboard bracket via the screw post 500 achieves a compact internal structure for the computer.

[0023] In this embodiment, the bracket body 100 is also provided with through holes 600 for the plastic component positioning posts to pass through. The through holes 600 are designed to allow the plastic component positioning posts to pass through, and the plastic component is fixed by heat fusion. Specifically, multiple through holes 600 are provided, and they are evenly distributed on the surface of the bracket body 100. During the assembly of the laptop keyboard, the plastic components protect the internal circuitry and provide elastic feedback for the keys. These plastic components need to be accurately positioned on the key core support. Precise positioning can be achieved through the cooperation of the plastic component positioning posts and the through holes 600. Heat fusion fixing ensures that the plastic components will not shift during use, thereby guaranteeing the performance and stability of the keyboard.

[0024] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 3 The bracket body 100 is also provided with a plurality of clearance holes 700 and mounting holes 800 provided on its periphery. The clearance holes 700 are used to avoid components such as the touchpad and heat dissipation device, while the mounting holes are used to fix the bracket body 100 in the laptop body and securely place the bracket body 100 in the predetermined position.

[0025] The above is only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it. Any other modifications or equivalent substitutions made by those skilled in the art to the technical solution of this utility model, as long as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
