INFORMATION HANDLING SYSTEM KEYBOARD WITH RAPID ASSEMBLY AND DISASSEMBLY TO AID RECYCLING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17968384 titled 'INFORMATION HANDLING SYSTEM KEYBOARD WITH RAPID ASSEMBLY AND DISASSEMBLY TO AID RECYCLING
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an information handling system keyboard that is assembled without the use of screws or adhesive, utilizing a key subassembly with keys over a key detection sensor within an extruded aluminum housing.
- Key subassembly with keys disposed over a key detection sensor
- Extruded aluminum housing with front and rear openings
- Tray inserts in the rear opening to couple a rear cover
- Front cover couples in the front opening to engage the tray
- Keyboard components couple together without screws or adhesive
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in various industries such as computer hardware manufacturing, electronic devices, and consumer electronics.
Problems Solved
This innovation eliminates the need for screws or adhesive in assembling the keyboard, simplifying the manufacturing process and reducing production costs.
Benefits
The key benefits of this technology include easier assembly, cost-effectiveness, and potentially improved durability due to the simplified design.
Potential Commercial Applications
"Revolutionizing Keyboard Assembly: No Screws or Adhesive Required"
Possible Prior Art
There may be prior art related to keyboard assembly methods using different materials or techniques, but specific examples are not provided in the abstract.
Unanswered Questions
How does this technology impact the overall weight of the keyboard?
The abstract does not mention any details about the weight implications of using an extruded aluminum housing. It would be interesting to know if this design choice affects the overall weight of the keyboard compared to traditional materials.
Are there any limitations to the types of keyboards that can be assembled using this method?
It is not clear from the abstract if this assembly method is suitable for all types of keyboards, such as ergonomic keyboards or specialized keyboards for specific industries. Further information on the compatibility of this technology with different keyboard designs would be helpful.
Original Abstract Submitted
An information handling system keyboard couples a key subassembly having keys disposed over a key detection sensor within an extruded aluminum housing having front and rear openings. The key subassembly couples over a tray that inserts in the housing rear opening to couple a rear cover at the rear opening. A front cover couples in the front opening to engage the tray so that the keyboard components couple together without any screws or adhesive.
