ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMPRISING ELECTRODE BUTTON - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18159950 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMPRISING ELECTRODE BUTTON
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an electronic device with a button that is exposed on the device's housing. The device also includes a bracket with a circuit board mounted on it, a connection member that is electrically connected to the circuit board, and a conductive structure that connects the button to the connection member.
- The electronic device has a button that is visible and accessible on the housing.
- A bracket inside the housing holds a circuit board.
- A connection member inside the bracket is connected to the circuit board.
- A conductive structure is placed in the connection member and makes contact with the button.
- The conductive structure is connected to both the connection member and the button.
- The conductive structure has a contact portion that touches the button and a fixed portion that separates the contact portion from the connection member.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Consumer electronics such as smartphones, tablets, or remote controls.
- Industrial equipment with control buttons or switches.
- Medical devices with user interface buttons.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Provides a reliable and efficient way to connect a button to a circuit board.
- Ensures proper electrical contact between the button and the circuit board.
- Prevents accidental short circuits or damage to the circuit board.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved durability and longevity of the button connection.
