Key switch-replaceable keyboard mounting arrangement

摘要

A key switch-replaceable keyboard mounting arrangement. The arrangement includes a keyboard shell having an array of contacts on its inside. Rows of keys are suspended in the keyboard shell and adapted for triggering the contacts to produce a signal. Resilient locating plates are coupled to the keyboard shell at two sides of each row of keys and moved between a first position to hold down the keys in place for operation, and a second position to disengage the keys for a replacement.
