Abstract

L'invention concerne un ensemble clavier qui simule un clic de commutation au moyen d'un disque à déclic (1) lorsqu'un contact électrique est fermé. L'invention vise à produire de tels ensembles claviers de manière flexible et bon marché tout en assurant un blindage intégral contre les rayonnements. A cet effet, le disque à déclic (1) est placé au-dessus de l'ouverture (2) et au moins l'une de ses ailettes (6) est reliée de manière fixe à l'une des deux surfaces de la plaque (3). Le diamètre (D1) du disque à déclic bombé (1) est supérieur à la dimension intérieure de l'ouverture (2), le disque à déclic recouvrant ainsi complètement cette ouverture lorsqu'il se trouve dans l'état relié à la plaque (3).
