Computer keyboard key depression inhibitor device

A key depression inhibitor device for preventing accidental or inadvertent manual depression of a key or combination of keys on a computer keyboard, the computer keyboard having a frame plate provided with openings therein through which discrete sections of keys protrude and which define longitudinally extending border and intermediate portions of the frame laterally adjacent the discrete keyboard sections, said device comprising:

• A. a relatively flat top wall adapted to overlie the top surface of a key when the device is installed on a keyboard,
• B. a pair of opposed side walls attached to and depending from first opposite edges of said top wall and a pair of opposed end walls attached to and depending from second opposite edges of said top wall, said top wall, side walls and end walls defining a generally hollow cover adapted to fit over a selected key or combination of keys on the keyboard, and
• C. means formed only on the distal end of said opposed end walls for supporting said device on the computer keyboard frame plate in the laterally adjacent longitudinally extending border and intermediate portions of the frame plate over said selected key or combination of keys,
• whereby any key covered by said device cannot be accidentally or inadvertently depressed during normal operation of the keyboard.
