Typewriter keyboard with a keylever pawl tube spring. |
摘要 |
<p>A hollow tubular rubber or rubber-like deformable member (24) is supported by a plurality of character keylevers (12) in a typewriter keyboard and constrained against movement within the typewriter by supporting surfaces (22) on keylevers (12) such that tube (24) engages keylever pawls (16) carried by keylevers (12). As the keyboard operates, an interposer (34) will force keylever pawl (16) to provide complete restoration of interposer (34). The force of interposer (34) against front edge (40) of keylever pawl (16) will force keylever pawl (16) to pivot about its pivot stud (18) and to locally compress tube (24). Upon restoration of keylever (16) to its rest position, the forces generated within tube (24) during local deformation will be released and will act to restore keylever pawl (16) to its rest position. Tube spring (24) extends accross the entire keyboard engaging all keylever pawls (16), thus eliminating the need for a separate spring or spring finger to be engaged with each keylever pawl (16) and each keylever(12).</p> |
