Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of keyboard tool technology, and more specifically to a disassembly clip for removing keycaps and switches from a keyboard. Background Technology

[0002] A mechanical keyboard is a type of keyboard. Structurally, each key on a mechanical keyboard has an individual switch to control its closure; this switch is also called a switch. Mechanical keyboards can be divided into traditional brown, blue, white, black, and red switches, as well as optical switches. After prolonged use, dust and other impurities can accumulate on the surface of a mechanical keyboard, causing problems such as keystrokes not triggering or becoming stiff. Therefore, the keyboard surface needs to be cleaned. Before cleaning the keyboard, all keycaps need to be removed. Additionally, when replacing damaged keycaps, they also need to be removed.

[0003] When removing keycaps, people usually use a wire to hook the two sides of the keycap and pull it upwards to remove it from the keyboard. However, during the removal process, the wire cannot hold the keycap, and it is easy for the wire to lose contact with the keycap when pulling upwards, which reduces the removal efficiency and makes it inconvenient for people to remove the keycap quickly. In addition, some existing keycap removal methods use a small wrench to pry the keycap directly from the outside, but this rigid removal method can easily damage the keycap.

[0004] Therefore, how to provide a disassembly clamp that can quickly clamp and remove keycaps and switches on a keyboard is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides a disassembly clip for disassembling keycaps and switches of a keyboard, which can quickly clamp and disassemble keycaps and switches on the keyboard.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A disassembly clip for removing keycaps and switches from a keyboard, comprising:

[0008] A connector, one side of which is provided with a keycap clip for removing keycaps, and the other side of which is provided with a switch clip for removing switches from the keyboard;

[0009] A keycap clip, which covers one side of the connector;

[0010] A shaft clamp is attached to the other side of the connecting seat.

[0011] As can be seen from the above technical solution, compared with the prior art, this utility model discloses a disassembly clip for removing keycaps and switches from a keyboard. To remove keycaps, remove the keycap clip cover, use the keycap clip to hold the keycap to be removed, and then pull upwards to remove the keycap from the switch. To remove switches, remove the switch clip cover, use the switch clip to hold the switch to be removed, and then pull upwards to remove the switch from the keyboard. When not in use, the keycap clip cover and switch clip cover can be reattached to the connector, thus concealing the keycap clip and switch clip and preventing them from being exposed and damaged or scratched. Furthermore, because of the keycap clip cover and switch clip cover, the keycap clip and switch clip do not need to be placed in a packaging bag or box for storage, saving additional packaging costs.

[0012] Furthermore, the connector is provided with a first snap-fit ​​protrusion and a second snap-fit ​​protrusion on both sides, the opening of the keycap cover snaps onto the first snap-fit ​​protrusion, and the opening of the shaft cover snaps onto the second snap-fit ​​protrusion.

[0013] The beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solution are as follows: the setting of the first and second snap-fit ​​protrusions makes the keycap cover and the switch cover and the connector all pluggable, which facilitates the quick assembly and disassembly of the keycap cover and the switch cover; in addition, after the keycap cover and the switch cover are fastened to the connector, the surfaces of the three are flush at the fastening position, making the disassembly clip look simple and beautiful.

[0014] Furthermore, the keycap clip consists of two openable U-shaped rods. The rod ends on the open side of the U-shaped rods are fixedly connected to the first snap-fit ​​boss. The rod portion away from the open side of the U-shaped rod is a hanging crossbar, which is hooked to the lower edge of the keycap.

[0015] The beneficial effect of adopting the above technical solution is that when removing the keycap, the two U-shaped rods are separated, so that the two rods are located on both sides of the keycap and hooked on the lower edge of the keycap. The keycap can be removed by pulling it upward.

[0016] Furthermore, the shaft clamp consists of two spaced-apart clamping pieces. One end of each clamping piece is fixedly connected to the second snap-fit ​​boss, and the other end of each clamping piece is provided with an inwardly bent hook that hooks into the snap-fit ​​edge of the shaft.

[0017] The beneficial effect of adopting the above technical solution is that when disassembling the switch, the hooks of the two clamping plates are placed on both sides of the switch and hooked onto the retaining edge of the switch. The switch can be removed from the keyboard by pulling upwards.

[0018] Furthermore, both the keycap clip and the switch clip are transparent housings.

[0019] The beneficial effect of adopting the above technical solution is that users can clearly see from the outside of the disassembly clip which side of the connector is the keycap clip and which side is the switch clip without disassembling the keycap clip or switch clip. This makes it convenient for users to remove the corresponding keycap clip or switch clip according to the actual object to be disassembled. Attached Figure Description

[0025] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this utility model embodiment discloses a disassembly clip for removing keycaps and switches from a keyboard, comprising:

[0026] Connector 1, with a keycap clip 2 for removing keycaps on one side and a switch clip 3 for removing switches on the keyboard on the other side;

[0027] Keycap clip 4, keycap clip 4 is attached to one side of connector 1;

[0028] Shaft clamp 5 is attached to the other side of the connecting seat 1.

[0029] The connector 1 has a first snap-fit ​​boss 11 and a second snap-fit ​​boss 12 on both sides. The open end of the keycap clip 4 is snapped onto the first snap-fit ​​boss 11, and the open end of the switch clip 5 is snapped onto the second snap-fit ​​boss 12.

[0030] The keycap clip 2 consists of two openable U-shaped rods 21. The rod end on the open side of the U-shaped rod is fixedly connected to the first snap-fit ​​boss 11. The rod part away from the open side of the U-shaped rod is a hanging crossbar 211, which is hung on the lower edge of the keycap.

[0031] The U-shaped bar 21 can be made of stainless steel, which has a certain degree of elasticity. The two U-shaped bars 21 can be separated by a certain distance under the action of external force from the human hand. This makes it easy for the hanging crossbars 211 on the two U-shaped bars 21 to be located on both sides of the keycap and hooked on the lower edge of the keycap. After being released, the two U-shaped bars will move closer to each other under the action of elasticity, holding the keycap and preventing the hanging crossbars 211 from falling off the keycap when it is dragged upward.
