Abstract
A momentary contact actuator and identification cap assembly disposed to be used with a single switch of a laminated flat-panel keyboard. The assembly consists of a clear cap component which snaps over a flat-panel switch, an identification insert, and a tension bar including spring arms situated within the interior of the clear cap. The spring arms hold the assembly suspended over the associated flat-panel switch. Manual pressure applied to the clear cap deflects the assembly operating the flat-panel switch.
