Abstract
A keystroke apparatus for an optical disk drive includes a computer bezel (40), an optical disk drive (10) having a keystroke (12), a pressing member (20) movably attached to the computer bezel (40) and at least one spring (30) causing the pressing member (20) to come back to an original position. The pressing member (20) has a slanted resisting portion (25) for abutting against the keystroke (12). When the pressing member (20) is pressed, the resisting portion (25) drives the keystroke (12) to open or close the optical disk drive (10).
Claims20
A keystroke assembly for an electronic component, comprising:
- a bezel of a computing system having a flange;
- an electronic component of the computing system having a front panel perpendicular to the flange, a keystroke being attached to the front panel;
- and
- a pressing member slidably mounted on the flange of the bezel and locating between the bezel and the electronic component, the pressing member having a resisting portion for abutting against the keystroke to urge the electronic component to open or close.
A computing system comprising:
- a bezel partially enclosing said computing system along a first surface thereof, and defining an access on said first surface to enter said computing system;
- an electronic component performing a predetermined function for said computing system and disposed beside said first surface in said computing system, said electronic component being exposable out of said computing system and extendable across said first surface through said access of said bezel, and comprising a keystroke formed thereon to face said first surface and be capable of triggering exposedness and extension of said electronic component by means of being operated along a direction across said first surface;
- and
- a pressing member movably disposed in said bezel next to said keystroke and operable along another direction across a second surface other than said direction across said first surface, said pressing member being operable to move toward said keystroke along said another direction for being capable of pressing said keystroke along said direction.
A computing system comprising:
- a bezel partially enclosing said computing system, and defining an access to enter said computing system;
- an electronic component performing a predetermined function for said computing system and disposed next to said bezel in said computing system, said electronic component being exposable and extendable to an outside of said computing system through said access of said bezel along a first direction, and comprising a keystroke formed thereon capable of triggering exposedness and extension of said electronic component by means of being pressed along said first direction;
- and
- a pressing member disposed in said bezel next to said keystroke and exposable to said outside of said computing system to be operable, said pressing member being operable to move toward said keystroke along a second direction different from said first direction for being capable of pressing said keystroke along said first direction.
