摘要 |
An input device for use with an electronic system of the type including a substantially planar deck having a basin extending downwardly from the deck and comprising at least one slot. The input device includes: a downwardly deflectable component including an input surface configured to be touched by input objects and a capacitive sensor layer configured to sense positional information of the input objects; a hinge having a first hinged component comprising at least one pad coupled to a bottom surface of the deflectable component, a second hinged component configured to be secured to the basin, and at least one tab configured to be inserted into the at least one slot; and an actuation element disposed between the first and second hinged components and configured to detect deflection of the deflectable component in response to force applied to the input surface by an input object. |

1. An input device for use with an electronic system, the input device comprising:
a substantially planar deck; a basin comprising a top, a floor, and at least one slot proximate the floor of the basin, wherein the basin is disposed within the substantially planar deck and extends downwardly from the top of the basin to the floor of the basin; and a hardware module disposed inside the basin, the hardware module comprising:
a downwardly deflectable component including an input surface configured to be touched by an input object and a capacitive sensor layer configured to sense positional information of the input object;a hinge having a first hinged component comprising at least one pad coupled to a bottom surface of the downwardly deflectable component, a second hinged component configured to be secured to the basin, and at least one tab configured to be inserted into the at least one slot of the basin; andan actuation element disposed between the first and second hinged components and configured to detect deflection of the downwardly deflectable component in response to a force applied to the input surface by the input object. |
