A portable keyboard comprising:
- a key assembly including a plurality of key arrangements each having multiple keys formed in a first direction, the key arrangements formed in a second direction intersecting the first direction;
- a polygonal pillar-shaped main body that is formed adjacent to the key assembly;
- a flexible connecting member electrically connecting the key assembly and the polygonal pillar-shaped main body;
- a magnet provided in at least one of the key arrangements;
- a hall sensor that is disposed in the polygonal pillar-shaped main body and detects whether the key assembly is rolled up onto the polygonal pillar-shaped main body;
- and
- a controller that controls the operation of the key assembly,
- wherein the controller turns on the portable keyboard in a first state where the key assembly is rolled up around the polygonal pillar-shaped main body, and turns off the portable keyboard in a second state where the key assembly is unrolled from the polygonal pillar-shaped main body.
A portable keyboard comprising:
- a key assembly including a plurality of key arrangements each having multiple keys formed in a first direction, the key arrangements formed in a second direction intersecting the first direction;
- a polygonal pillar-shaped main body that is formed adjacent to the key assembly;
- a flexible connecting member the polygonal pillar-shaped main body electrically connecting the key assembly and the polygonal pillar-shaped main body;
- a rotary member comprising an end portion fixed at the polygonal pillar-shaped main body and another end portion is opposite from the end portion, the another end portion being extended from the end portion and rotatable around the end portion;
- a magnet embedded in the rotary member;
- a hall sensor that is disposed in the polygonal pillar-shaped main body and detects whether the rotary member is unfolded;
- and
- a controller that controls the operation of the key assembly,
- wherein the rotary member implements a first state where the another end portion of the rotary member is spaced apart from the polygonal pillar-shaped main body by rotating around the end portion and a second state where the another end portion comes into contact with the polygonal pillar-shaped main body, and the controller turns on the portable keyboard in the first state, and turns off the portable keyboard in the second state.
