[0006] In one embodiment, the arc-shaped component includes an arc-shaped keyboard base fixedly connected to one side of the base keyboard. The lower end of the arc-shaped keyboard base has a bottom arc-shaped groove, and the upper end of the arc-shaped keyboard base has an upper key groove. The key assembly is installed on the inner bottom wall of the upper key groove, and the lower end of the arc-shaped keyboard base has a plurality of bottom circular holes.
[0007] In one embodiment, the horizontal cross-section of the arc-shaped keyboard base is arc-shaped, and a wrist rest is connected to one side of the arc-shaped keyboard base.
[0008] In one embodiment, the key assembly includes function keys mounted on the upper end of the curved keyboard base. A middle-width key is provided on the side of the function keys near the wrist rest, a right-side key is provided on the side of the middle-width key near the base keyboard, and a left-side key is provided on the other side of the middle-width key.
[0009] In one embodiment, the angle between the left and right buttons relative to the middle wide button is an acute angle, and the cross-sectional width of the middle wide button is greater than the cross-sectional width of the adjacent right button.
[0010] In one embodiment, the stabilizing component includes a threaded sleeve fixedly connected to the inner wall of a bottom circular hole, the inner wall of which is threaded with a threaded post.
[0011] In one embodiment, a rubber seat is fixedly connected to the lower end of the threaded post, and a bottom groove is formed at the lower end of the rubber seat.
[0012] Beneficial effects
[0013] 1. The above-mentioned ergonomic curved keys, through their curved design, allow the fingers and keys to be in a relaxed state, and long-term use will not cause pain in the fingers and wrists.
