Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of computer equipment manufacturing technology, specifically to a lubrication coating device for mechanical keyboard switches. Background Technology

[0002] A computer keyboard is a channel for inputting text information into a computer. It evolved from the keyboard of an English typewriter. Early keyboards were almost all mechanical keyboards. These keyboards used electrical contacts as markers and mechanical metal springs as the elastic mechanism.

[0003] Mechanical keyboard switches contain springs, and lubricant needs to be applied to both ends of these springs to eliminate the metallic friction noise ("spring noise") and improve the noise level when pressing. However, there are currently no devices on the market specifically designed for applying lubricant to both ends of the springs, and most applications are done manually. This can easily lead to poor control of the amount of lubricant applied and is also quite time-consuming. Therefore, we have proposed a mechanical keyboard switch lubrication application device to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a mechanical keyboard switch lubrication coating device to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that there is no device on the market for coating both ends of the spring, and most of them are coated manually, which easily leads to poor control of the amount of lubricating oil applied and is quite time-consuming.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a mechanical keyboard switch lubrication coating device, including a base;

[0006] Also includes:

[0007] The mounting bracket is located on the upper part of the base. A support is provided at the bottom of the mounting bracket, and the mounting bracket is fixed to the upper part of the base by the support. Several bottom holes are evenly distributed on the surface of the mounting bracket, and the upper surface of the bottom holes is open. A plug-in post is installed in the center of the bottom hole, and the upper end of the plug-in post extends above the bottom hole. A top plate is installed on the top of the mounting bracket, and several adsorption rings are provided at the bottom of the top plate. The adsorption rings are aligned with the bottom holes one by one, and the adsorption rings are movably engaged inside the bottom holes.

[0008] Preferably, the mounting bracket has an integrally formed storage cavity inside, and the bottom edge of the bottom hole has symmetrically arranged permeation grooves on both sides of the surface, and the permeation grooves are connected to the interior of the storage cavity.

[0009] Preferably, a storage box is installed on the upper end of the base, and the storage box is located below the mounting frame. A connecting pipe is connected between the storage box and the mounting frame. One end of the connecting pipe extends into the interior of the storage box and is connected to the oil pump, and the other end of the connecting pipe extends into the receiving cavity inside the mounting frame.

[0010] Preferably, L-shaped frames are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the upper end of the base, and the L-shaped frames are located on both sides of the mounting frame. Connecting plates are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the top plate. Threaded holes are provided on the surface of the connecting plate on the left side. Fixing plates are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting frame. A screw is provided at the upper end of the fixing plate on the left side, and the other end of the screw passes through the threaded hole and is connected to the L-shaped frame on the left side through a bearing. A motor is provided at the bottom of the fixing plate on the left side, and the motor is connected to the screw.

[0011] Preferably, the upper end of the fixing plate on the right is provided with a sliding rod, the surface of the connecting plate on the right is provided with a round hole, and the other end of the sliding rod passes through the round hole and is connected to the L-shaped frame on the right.

[0012] Preferably, the surface of the adsorption ring is provided with through holes, and the surface of the top plate is uniformly distributed with movable holes, the movable holes being aligned with the through holes, and the insertion post being movable inside the movable holes and the through holes.

[0013] Preferably, the adsorption ring is made of polypropylene meltblown fiber.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. By setting several bottom holes on the surface of the mounting bracket and setting protruding plugs inside the bottom holes, the spring in the mechanical keyboard is fitted onto the plugs. Then, the top plate is lowered so that one end of the spring is inside the bottom hole, while the other end is in contact with the adsorption ring. The oil pump inside the storage tank introduces lubricating oil into the storage cavity inside the mounting bracket through the connecting pipe. The lubricating oil enters the bottom hole through the permeation groove, so that one end of the spring comes into contact with the lubricating oil. The adsorption ring is saturated with lubricating oil. After the surface of the adsorption ring is saturated, the other end of the spring is squeezed against the adsorption ring, causing the grease inside the adsorption ring to seep out and transfer to the surface of the other end of the spring. This can lubricate both ends of the spring, thereby eliminating the metallic friction sound of the spring, improving the noise when pressing, and this method of coating is more uniform and can improve efficiency.

[0016] 2. By moving the top plate up and down via a screw conveyor, when the lubricating oil content inside the adsorption ring is low, the top plate can be driven down to allow the adsorption ring to insert into the bottom hole. At this time, the through holes and movable holes on the surface of the adsorption ring allow the insertion post to pass through, so that the adsorption ring can contact the bottom hole and suck away the lubricating oil inside the bottom hole. The lubricating oil is stored in a storage tank and can be continuously transported into the storage chamber. The lubricating oil in the storage tank is transported to the storage chamber by an oil pump. Excess oil enters the bottom hole from the permeation tank, so that the bottom hole is filled with lubricating oil for a long time, which is convenient for coating and adsorption ring suction.

[0024] For the device provided by this utility model, please refer to Figure 1-4 The following is a detailed introduction.

[0025] This utility model discloses a lubrication coating device for mechanical keyboard switches, including a base 1 and a mounting bracket 2. The mounting bracket 2 is disposed on the upper end of the base 1, and a support 8 is provided at the bottom of the mounting bracket 2. The mounting bracket 2 is fixed to the upper end of the base 1 by the support 8. A plurality of bottom holes 14 are evenly distributed on the surface of the mounting bracket 2, and the upper surface of the bottom holes 14 is open.

[0026] A plug-in post 13 is installed at the center of the bottom hole 14, and the upper end of the plug-in post 13 extends above the bottom hole 14. A top plate 3 is installed above the mounting bracket 2. Several adsorption rings 19 are provided at the bottom of the top plate 3. The adsorption rings 19 are aligned with the bottom holes 14 one by one, and the adsorption rings 19 are movably engaged inside the bottom holes 14. The adsorption rings 19 are made of polypropylene meltblown fiber, which has strong adsorption force and can adsorb lubricating oil.

[0027] The surface of the adsorption ring 19 is provided with through holes 20, and the surface of the top plate 3 is evenly distributed with movable holes 4. The movable holes 4 are aligned with the through holes 20, and the plug post 13 is movable inside the movable holes 4 and the through holes 20.

[0028] To further explain, the mounting frame 2 has an integrally formed storage cavity 16 inside. The bottom edge of the bottom hole 14 has symmetrically arranged permeation grooves 15 on both sides, and the permeation grooves 15 are connected to the inside of the storage cavity 16. The upper end of the base 1 is equipped with a storage box 6, and the storage box 6 is located below the mounting frame 2. A connecting pipe 7 is connected between the storage box 6 and the mounting frame 2. One end of the connecting pipe 7 extends into the inside of the storage box 6 and is connected to the oil pump, and the other end of the connecting pipe 7 extends into the receiving cavity inside the mounting frame 2.

[0029] To further explain, L-shaped frames 5 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the upper end of the base 1, and the L-shaped frames 5 are located on both sides of the mounting frame 2. Connecting plates 9 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the top plate 3. The surface of the left connecting plate 9 is provided with threaded holes 17. Fixing plates 10 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting frame 2. The upper end of the left fixing plate 10 is provided with a screw 11, and the other end of the screw 11 passes through the threaded hole 17 and is connected to the left L-shaped frame 5 through a bearing.

[0030] In use, this invention involves placing a spring from the mechanical keyboard onto a connector pin, then lowering the top plate so that one end of the spring is inside the bottom hole, while the other end is in contact with the adsorption ring. An oil pump inside the storage tank pumps lubricating oil through a connecting pipe into the storage chamber inside the mounting bracket. The lubricating oil enters the bottom hole through a permeation groove, bringing one end of the spring into contact with the lubricating oil. The adsorption ring, saturated with lubricating oil, compresses the other end of the spring against the adsorption ring, causing the grease inside the adsorption ring to seep out and transfer to the other end of the spring. This lubricates both ends of the spring, eliminating metallic friction noise and improving noise during pressing. Furthermore, this method provides a more uniform coating and improves efficiency.

[0031] Simultaneously, by moving the top plate up and down via a screw conveyor, when the lubricating oil content inside the adsorption ring is low, the top plate can be driven down to allow the adsorption ring to insert into the bottom hole. At this time, the through holes and movable holes on the surface of the adsorption ring allow the insertion post to pass through, thus allowing the adsorption ring to contact the bottom hole and suck away the lubricating oil inside the bottom hole. The lubricating oil is stored in a storage tank and can be continuously transported into the storage chamber. The lubricating oil inside the storage tank is transported to the storage chamber by an oil pump. Excess oil enters the bottom hole from the permeation tank, so that the bottom hole is filled with lubricating oil for a long time, which facilitates coating and adsorption by the adsorption ring.

[0032] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
