AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

On existing laptops smaller than 14 inches, the numeric keypad and symbol keys are shared, which makes it inconvenient for quick input and affects the user experience when switching modes. In addition, adding a separate keyboard would increase the size of the machine and make it inconvenient to carry.

Method used

Design a hidden numeric keypad that uses magnetic and elastic components to hide and pop up the keyboard. Through magnetic connection and elastic structure, the main body of the keyboard can be hidden or popped up inside the laptop. It communicates with the motherboard wirelessly or via wired connection.

Benefits of technology

It offers a dedicated numeric keypad for fast number input, providing a good user experience without increasing the overall size of the laptop, making it suitable for small laptops.

Claims

1. A hidden numeric keypad applied to an electronic device, the electronic device comprising a main board, characterized in that: The hidden numeric keypad includes: The keyboard body is slidably installed within an accommodating cavity formed inside the electronic device; A first magnetic suction element is disposed at the first end of the keyboard body; The on / off switch has its first end connected to the accommodating cavity via an elastic element. The second magnetic attractor is fixedly connected to the switch and can move synchronously with the switch, thereby repelling or attracting the first magnetic attractor. The keyboard body has an initial state and an ejected state. In the initial state, the keyboard body is housed inside the accommodating cavity, and the first magnetic member and the second magnetic member are magnetically connected. In the ejected state, the keyboard body is located outside the accommodating cavity, and the first magnetic member and the second magnetic member are positioned far apart from each other.

2. The hidden keypad of claim 1, wherein: The hidden numeric keypad also includes a third magnetic component, which is located at the second end of the keypad body; when the keypad body is in the pop-up state, the third magnetic component is magnetically connected to the first magnetic component.

3. The hidden keypad of claim 1, wherein: The hidden numeric keypad also includes an automatically pop-out stand structure connected to the keypad body; the automatically pop-out stand structure is configured to retract into the receiving cavity when the keypad body is in the initial state, and to unfold to support the keypad body on the support surface when the keypad body is in the pop-out state.

4. The hidden keypad of claim 3, wherein: The automatic pop-out mechanism of the tripod includes a tripod and a torsion spring. The main body of the torsion spring is connected to the tripod, the first end of the torsion spring is connected to the tripod, and the second end of the torsion spring is connected to the keyboard body.

5. The hidden keypad of claim 4, wherein: The lower surface of the leg is also provided with a plurality of protrusions, which make point contact with the inner surface of the accommodating cavity.

6. The hidden keypad according to any one of claims 1-5, wherein: The keyboard body is electrically connected to the motherboard via a cable; Alternatively, the keyboard body is wirelessly connected to the motherboard.

7. The hidden keypad of claim 6, wherein: Guide rails are formed on both sides inside the accommodating cavity, and the keyboard body is slidably mounted on the guide rails.

8. The hidden keypad of claim 6, wherein: The cavity wall of the accommodating cavity is provided with a slide rail hole, and the switch is slidably installed on the slide rail hole.

9. An electronic device comprising a first housing part and a second housing part that are detachably connected, characterized in that: It also includes the hidden numeric keypad as described in any one of claims 1-8.

10. The electronic device of claim 9, wherein: The electronic device also includes a support platform, which is located below the first housing and connected thereto to form the accommodating cavity with an opening.
