1. An apparatus, comprising:
a housing including a bottom wall disposed in a first plane; a trackpad including:
a cover member having a top surface configured to receive an input force, the top surface disposed in a second plane parallel to the first plane;a base member parallel to and disposed below the cover member, the base member having a bottom surface;a first side;a second side opposite and parallel to the first side;an arm member coupled to the housing at a first end and a second end;an actuation member coupled to the arm member; anda switch coupled to the cover member; a first spring member coupled to the first side of the trackpad, the first spring member including a first end portion and a second end portion opposite the first end portion, the second end portion in contact with the bottom surface of the trackpad, the first spring member disposed and elongated in a third plane parallel to the first plane and the second plane; and a second spring member coupled to the second side of the trackpad, the second spring member including a first end portion and a second end portion opposite the first end portion, the second end portion in contact with the bottom surface of the trackpad, the second spring member disposed and elongated in the third plane, the first spring member and the second spring member each being disposed at a non-zero distance from each other and collectively configured to bias the trackpad in the first position,
the trackpad being movable to a second position in which the top surface of the cover member is disposed in a fourth plane substantially parallel to the second plane when an input force is exerted on the top surface of the cover member,the switch configured to trigger an electrical signal within a computer when the trackpad is moved to its second position, the movement of the trackpad to the second position pressing the switch against the actuation member. |
