Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of keyboard technology, specifically a foldable magnetic charging keyboard. Background Technology
[0002] As a crucial input tool for computer users, the keyboard has become an indispensable peripheral in modern offices and daily life. Traditional keyboards are generally large, facilitating extended typing sessions, but they fall short in terms of portability and mobility. With the widespread adoption of mobile devices, users' demand for portable input devices has become increasingly urgent, leading to the development of foldable keyboards. This design not only reduces size and makes them easier to carry but also provides a similar user experience to traditional keyboards.
[0003] Patent CN218585298U discloses a folding keyboard, including two side panels and a main board. A flexible connecting piece is provided between the side panels and the main board. First grooves are formed on both sides of the main board, with the depth of the first grooves greater than the length of the connecting piece. An inner board is slidably connected within the first grooves. The end of the connecting piece not connected to the side panel is fixedly connected to the inner board. A connector includes a return spring fixedly connected within a third groove. A limiting piece is fixedly connected to the other end of the return spring, with arc-shaped slots on both sides of the limiting piece. This folding keyboard is very similar to a normal keyboard, providing a better user experience. After folding, it can limit the movement of the side panels, further protecting the keys. It also allows for adjustment of the keyboard angle, improving its practicality and possessing high promotional value.
[0004] The existing folding keyboards described above use side panels to allow connecting pieces to enter the first groove, thus enabling the side panels to abut against the motherboard and form a normal keyboard. However, the lack of an effective fixing structure after the connecting pieces enter the first groove causes the side panels to easily unfold outwards during use, affecting the stability of the keyboard operation. Furthermore, the limiting components and positioning pieces used to fix the two side panels after folding are overly complex, increasing both the difficulty of operation and manufacturing. These problems not only reduce the user's typing experience but also affect the product's market competitiveness. Therefore, we propose a folding magnetic charging keyboard, aiming to improve portability and ease of use through innovative design and simplified structure, addressing the shortcomings of existing folding keyboards and meeting users' needs for high-performance portable input devices.

[0017] Preferably, the first secondary keyboard has a first limiting protrusion at the top and near the front and rear ends on the left side, and the second secondary keyboard has a second limiting protrusion at the top and near the front and rear ends on the right side. When the first and second secondary keyboards are folded, the ends of the first and second limiting protrusions fit against the top of the main keyboard to prevent the keyboard keys from colliding.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0019] 1. This foldable magnetic charging keyboard uses the attraction between the positive and negative magnetic strips to ensure that the first and second keyboards close when folded, preventing accidental unfolding due to external force and significantly improving reliability and operational stability when carried.
[0020] 2. This foldable magnetic charging keyboard replaces the traditional complex limit spring and reset mechanism by using the cooperation of unfolding slot, folding slot and positioning block. Users only need to pull out the strip plate and adjust the positioning block to lock the unfolded or folded state, which greatly reduces the complexity of operation and simplifies the production process.
[0021] 3. This foldable magnetic charging keyboard features a design where the limiting protrusions fit snugly against the top of the main keyboard, preventing key collisions or damage from pressure when folded; the anti-slip pads effectively reduce keyboard sliding on the desktop, improving safety and stability during use.
[0022] 4. This foldable magnetic charging keyboard has a significantly reduced size when folded. The synergistic effect of magnetic closure and slot positioning makes the device easier to store, balancing portability with a full-size typing experience when unfolded, thus solving the problem of traditional keyboards struggling to balance portability and functionality.
