Definitions

  • the invention relates to a keyboard according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a keyboard for computers for example from POS terminals, is in the CA 2,051,503.
  • the keyboard housing consists of several parts.
  • DE 196 38 206 A1 discloses a keypad, preferably for data registers.
  • All of the aforementioned keyboards have a multi-part housing and do not meet the requirements in the area of data entry, In addition to a flexible structure, it is also easy to service.
  • the invention is based on the idea of designing a keyboard housing in one piece, the housing being formed by an upper housing shell and a lower housing shell which adjoins the upper housing shell in an S-shape.
  • the housing is preferably made of plastic.
  • a keypad and, for example, keyboard electronics are held in the upper housing shell, additional modules in the lower housing shell.
  • the keypad is preferably point-like.
  • the keypad rests on sleeves in the upper housing shell, in which preferably two screws engage in order to position and fasten the keypad in the upper housing shell.
  • the keyboard electronics for example, is also held in a punctiform manner below the keypad, plug connectors of the keyboard electronics protruding into the lower housing shell.
  • the electrical additional modules such as, for example, electronics of a magnetic card reader and / or a chip card reader, a joystick, can be electrically connected to the keyboard electronics via these plug connectors.
  • this has a screw-on cover.
  • a slot-shaped guide for the magnetic card reader for pulling through a magnetic card is integrated in the housing on the back of the lower housing shell.
  • a slot-like insertion opening for inserting a chip card can also be provided in this area.
  • the advantage of this solution is that the additional modules can be plugged in, fastened and / or replaced without changing the keypad or the keyboard electronics. Likewise, a better retrofitting or retrofitting of further modules (components) is guaranteed.
  • This design makes the keyboard extremely compact, modular and easy to service.
  • Another advantage is the punctiform, preferably oblique mounting of the keypad and the key electronics. Incoming moisture is trapped in the upper housing shell and can drain through slots in the upper housing shell without lying on the keypad or the keyboard electronics.
  • the keyboard housing 1 shows a top view of a keyboard housing 1 of a keyboard 20, for example a data terminal for a POS terminal, in a perspective view.
  • the keyboard housing 1 is formed from a one-piece base body which includes an upper housing shell 2 and which is followed by an S-shaped lower housing shell 3 which cannot be seen in this illustration.
  • the upper housing shell 2 preferably has three sleeves 4, through which a keypad 5, not shown here, is supported at a point.
  • the keypad 5 is positioned on the sleeves 4 and fastened in the upper housing shell 2 by means of screws, not shown.
  • the sleeves 4 are preferably followed by bevels 6 on which the keypad 5 rests obliquely. Additional sleeves 7 accommodate keyboard electronics 8 attached under the keypad 5.
  • the lower side 2.1 of the upper housing shell 2 is made flat in relation to an imaginary contact surface of the keyboard housing 1.
  • the upper housing shell 2 is followed by the rear side 3.1 of the lower housing shell 3.
  • an elevation 3.2 is preferably integrated in the center, which represents a depression from the perspective of the lower housing shell 3.
  • the increase 3.2 comprises a slot-shaped guide 10 of a magnetic card reader 11 and / or a vertical slot-shaped opening 12 of a chip card reader 13.
  • Function displays 14 of the keyboard 20 are preferably attached next to the elevation 3.2.
  • the design of the lower housing shell 3 is shown in perspective in FIG.
  • the lower housing shell 3 is preferably divided into three areas and has the middle indentation visible from below.
  • The is closed lower housing shell 3 by means of a cover 16, as shown in Figure 3.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates in a sectional representation the one-piece design of the keyboard housing 1 of the keyboard 20.
  • the inclined mounting of the keyboard 5 indicated here in dashed lines is clearly recognizable.
  • the keyboard electronics 8 Below the keypad 5 is the keyboard electronics 8, the connectors 15 of which protrude into the lower housing shell 3.
  • LEDs (17) protrude from the keyboard electronics 8 into the area of the function displays 14.
  • slots 18 are additionally made. This allows moisture to escape from the upper housing shell 2.
  • the keyboard housing 1 is preferably an injection molded plastic part.
  • the cover 16 consists preferably of metal or the same material and is attached to the Keyboard housing 1 screwable.
  • the lower housing shell 3 can also be on the side of the upper housing shell 2 connect so that the guide 10 of the magnetic card reader 11 and / or Plug opening 12 of the chip card reader 13 are located on the side of the keypad 5.
