KEYBOARD

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To simplify assmebly and to enhance workability by forming a recessed portion on the key switch fringe portion of a keyboard case top face, and integrally molding vertical slide free key tops together with the case so as to fit to the case. SOLUTION: A cover is turn freely mounted onto the main body of a multimedia keyboard, and data input key switches 7 for Internet are disposed on the upper portion of the main body. The key switches 7 are fixed to springs 13 formed by punching confronting U-shaped cutout portions in a phosphor bronze plate 14 and cutting and erecting. When the key top 7a is pushed, an input board 4 is pressed so that a data is input. The key tops 7a are integrally molded together with the case of the main body, and recessed portions 7b are formed in thin thickness on the fringe portion top face thereof so as to be free in vertical sliding. Thereby, the key tops 7b can be simultaneously incorporated together with the case, and work for assembling key tops individually is not required, and the mis-arrangement of the key tops can be prevented. In the case of a data input, the cover is turned upward so as to open.
