Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of notebook structural design, and in particular to a high-strength environmentally friendly keyboard shell. Background Technology
[0002] Laptop structural design is a complex engineering process involving multiple fields such as materials science, thermodynamics, ergonomics, and manufacturing processes. Key factors to consider during the design process include device performance, durability, heat dissipation efficiency, user experience, maintainability, portability, and production costs. As technology advances and market demands change, laptop structural design continues to evolve. The fundamental principles of laptop structural design include innovation, functionality, reliability, economy, and environmental friendliness. The design should fully consider user needs and market trends while ensuring the product's manufacturability and maintainability. The goal is to optimize product performance, improve user experience, reduce production costs, and minimize environmental impact.
[0003] However, existing keyboard cases often encounter the following problems during use:
[0004] (1) When typing for a long time, the wrists will be placed on both sides of the laptop keyboard. Therefore, the pressure of the wrists on the laptop keyboard will be concentrated on the area on both sides of the touchpad. Traditional ordinary keyboard shell designs do not have a load-bearing structure for this position, which makes the shell in these parts prone to deformation or peeling if used for a long time.
[0005] (2) The traditional keyboard frame and motherboard mounting shell are designed as one piece. The keyboard frame itself is relatively fragile. Once the keyboard frame breaks, the entire motherboard mounting shell needs to be replaced. The entire motherboard mounting shell is large in size, and the pollution caused during waste degradation is also greater. Utility Model Content
[0006] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide a high-strength and environmentally friendly keyboard shell, so as to effectively solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the existing traditional keyboard shell design does not have a load-bearing structure for the sides of the touchpad, which makes the shell in these parts prone to deformation or peeling if used for a long time.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0008] A high-strength, environmentally friendly keyboard casing, comprising:
[0009] Keyboard casing;
[0010] A keyboard hole is provided on the keyboard casing;
[0011] Side heat dissipation vent, which is located on one side of the keyboard shell;
[0012] A motherboard mounting case, which is mounted on the keyboard case;
[0013] A touchpad, which is mounted on the motherboard mounting housing;
[0014] The honeycomb support surface is provided in three sets, with any two sets of the honeycomb support surface located on one side of the touch panel and the remaining set of the honeycomb support surface located on the other side of the touch panel;
[0015] A keyboard frame, which is connected to the periphery of the motherboard mounting shell;
[0016] A latching mechanism, wherein a set of latching mechanisms is provided, and a set of latching mechanisms is provided at the connection between the keyboard frame and the motherboard mounting shell;
[0017] A conductive foil is mounted on the honeycomb support surface.
[0018] The latching mechanism further includes:
[0019] The first card connector is mounted on the motherboard mounting shell;
[0020] The second card connector is mounted on the keyboard frame;
[0021] The card interface is provided with two card interfaces, which are respectively opened on the first card connector and the second card connector;
[0022] A sliding snap-fit shell, the two ends of which are respectively snapped into the first snap-fit member and the second snap-fit member.
[0023] The honeycomb support surface is composed of multiple hexagonal reinforcing ribs arranged in a row.
[0024] The first card connector is positioned in a manner corresponding to the second card connector.
[0025] The sliding snap-fit shell is made of plastic.
[0026] The two ends of the sliding snap-fit shell are bend ends.
[0027] The two ends of the sliding card housing coincide with the card interface.
[0028] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0029] (1) The design of this utility model significantly improves the structural strength by setting two sets of honeycomb support surfaces in the key stress areas (both sides of the touchpad, especially the lower right side), which can effectively disperse and absorb the pressure generated by the wrist when typing, and avoid fatigue and damage to the structure under long-term use.
[0030] (2) The combination of sliding snap-fit shell and snap-fit component introduced in this utility model design makes the disassembly and replacement of the keyboard frame extremely simple. Users or maintenance personnel can quickly replace the easily damaged keyboard frame without disassembling and replacing the motherboard mounting shell, without replacing the entire motherboard mounting shell, reducing the user's cost and reducing the amount of waste parts degrading.

[0036] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0037] In the description of this utility model, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "connected," and "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.
[0038] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a high-strength, environmentally friendly keyboard casing includes: a keyboard shell 1, a keyboard hole 2, a side heat dissipation vent 3, a motherboard mounting shell 4, a touchpad 5, a honeycomb support surface 6, a keyboard frame 7, a snap-fit mechanism 8, and conductive foil 9. The keyboard hole 2 is located on the keyboard shell, and the side heat dissipation vent 3 is located on one side of the keyboard shell. The design of the side heat dissipation vent 3 is to effectively dissipate heat and avoid heat accumulation, thereby improving the stability and lifespan of the device. The side location avoids direct heat blowing onto the user, improving the user experience. The motherboard mounting shell 4 is mounted on the keyboard shell 1, and the touchpad 5 is mounted on the motherboard mounting shell 4. As the carrier of the core components, the motherboard mounting shell 4 needs to be stable and easy to install. The touchpad 5 is mounted on it, ensuring a reasonable layout of the input device and convenient use. Three sets of honeycomb support surfaces 6 are provided, with any two sets of honeycomb support surfaces 6 located on one side of the touchpad 5, and the remaining set of honeycomb support surfaces 6 located on the other side of the touchpad 5. The keyboard frame 7 is connected to the motherboard mounting shell 4 around its perimeter. One set of latching mechanisms 8 is provided, located at the connection between the keyboard frame 7 and the motherboard mounting shell 4. Conductive foil 9 is installed on the honeycomb support surfaces 6. The use of conductive foil 9 can effectively shield electromagnetic interference, protect internal electronic components, and enhance the conductivity of the structure, which is especially important for the touchpad 5, which requires good conductivity.
[0039] The first connector 81 is mounted on the motherboard mounting shell 4, and the second connector 82 is mounted on the keyboard frame 7. Two connectors 83 are provided, one on the first connector 81 and the other on the second connector 82. The two ends of the sliding connector shell 84 are respectively engaged with the first connector 81 and the second connector 82. The honeycomb support surface 6 is composed of multiple hexagonal reinforcing ribs. This structure provides high-strength support while maintaining a lightweight design. Two sets of honeycomb support surfaces 6 are provided on one side of the touchpad 5, located below the right hand. These two sets of honeycomb support surfaces 6 enhance the structural strength of this area to withstand the additional pressure during right-hand operation. A set of latching mechanisms 8 is located at the connection between the keyboard frame 7 and the motherboard mounting shell 4, facilitating quick assembly and disassembly, simplifying the maintenance process, and reducing maintenance costs.
[0040] The first card connector 81 is positioned corresponding to the second card connector 82. The two ends of the sliding card connector housing 84 are bends. The shape of the two ends of the sliding card connector housing 84 coincides with the card interface 83. The sliding connection via the sliding card connector housing 84 ensures the stable fixation of the keyboard frame 7 and also facilitates disassembly. The bends at both ends of the sliding card connector housing 84, designed to coincide with the card interface 83, ensure a stable connection and ease of operation.
[0041] It should be noted that the high-strength environmentally friendly keyboard shell designed in this utility model is designed to withstand greater stress on the area below the right wrist during typing, as the right hand is primarily used for typing. Therefore, two sets of honeycomb support surfaces 6 are provided on one side of the touchpad 5 to effectively increase the strength of this area and provide support for right-hand operation. If the keyboard frame 7 breaks, simply disassemble the computer casing and manually push the sliding latch shell 84. The sliding latch shell 84 slides off the top of the first latch 81 and the second latch 82, allowing the keyboard frame 7 to be replaced without replacing the entire motherboard mounting shell 4. Conversely, during installation, after placing the keyboard frame 7 into the notch of the motherboard mounting shell 4, the first latch 81 and the second latch 82 merge. Align the two ends of the sliding latch shell 84 with the card interfaces 83 of the first and second latches, and manually push the sliding latch shell 84. The two ends of the sliding latch shell 84 then snap into the card interfaces 83 and are secured, completing the installation.
[0042] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
