Tech/Engineering - Computers: Hardware / Patent specification, hardware components | | English term or phrase: intervening keys | Ich bin nicht sicher, welche Art von Tasten mit diesem Begriff gemeint ist. Der Gesamtkontext ist eine neue Computertastaturtechnik im Rahmen einer Patentschrift, die u. a. an dieser Stelle auf das Dokument US 3 603 983 Bezug nimmt.
Determination of which button is pressed is solely based on the configuration of a key plate. The sequential arrangement of the keys in US 3 603 983 is extremely disadvantageous as signals from the keys furthest from the switches take much longer to travel along the tubes, and no ***intervening keys*** may be pressed until detection is made. |
| | | s.u. | Explanation:
Das Signal läuft halt eine ganze Weile von den Tasten, die am weitesten von den Schaltern entfernt sind. Die Tasten, die dazwischen liegen (im selben Signalweg) können/dürfen halt während der Reisezeit des Signals nicht gedrückt werden. |
