A notebook computer has a keyboard structure with a flexible top side portion disposed along the top side of its base housing to which the computer lid portion is secured for movement between a closed position in which the lid portion extends across and covers the top side of the base housing and the keyboard structure, and an open position in which the lid portion is generally transverse to the base housing and uncovers the keyboard structure. The flexible top side portion of the keyboard structure is linked to the computer lid portion in a manner such that when the lid portion is closed the top side portion of the keyboard structure is essentially flat and parallel to the bottom side of the base housing, and when the lid portion is opened, the top side portion of the keyboard structure is resiliently bent to an upwardly and rearwardly sloped orientation and concavely curved in an upward direction to thereby emulate the slope, curvature and typing feel of a sculpted desktop computer keyboard.
Cette invention concerne un ordinateur bloc-notes dont la partie supérieure du clavier est flexible par rapport à la partie supérieure du boîtier à laquelle est articulé le couvercle de l'ordinateur pour pouvoir passer d'une position fermée où il est rabattu sur ladite partie supérieure du boîtier et une position ouverte où il est généralement perpendiculaire audit boîtier pour donner accès au clavier. La partie supérieure flexible du clavier est reliée au couvercle de l'ordinateur d'une façon telle que, lorsque le couvercle est rabattue en position fermée, elle est essentiellement horizontale et parallèle au fond du boîtier et que, lorsque le couvercle est relevé en position ouverte, elle est courbée vers le haut pour présenter une surface concave reproduisant l'inclinaison, la courbure et le toucher d'un clavier d'ordinateur de bureau ergonomique.
