When the keycap 110 is pressed by an external force, and the external force can overcome the upward restoring force provided by the elastic body 180 (for example, when the user presses the keycap 110), the keycap 110 moves from the unpressed position shown in FIG. Move down to the pressing position shown in FIG. 5 , at this time, the bump 116 can touch the elastic body 180 to deform the elastic body 180 , and then trigger the membrane switch circuit 170 to generate a corresponding key signal. When the keycap 110 presses down on the first pressing part 121 and the second pressing part 131, the first metal supporting part 120 and the second metal supporting part 130 are driven and respectively around the first side wall 140w (or the first pivot connecting shaft 145) and the second side wall 150w (or the second pivot shaft 155) rotate, and the first supporting part 123 and the second supporting part 133 mutually support upwards and rotate together, so that the first supporting part 123 and the second supporting portion 133 move upward away from the recessed portion 171 .

More specifically, the upper surface 120US of the first metal support 120 and the upper surface 130US of the second metal support 130 are attached to the lower surface 110LS of the keycap 110 . Therefore, in the pressed position, the inner space of the key cap 110 can also be accommodated, thereby reducing the overall thickness of the key structure 100 .

请同时参阅图1A及图5,薄膜开关电路170具有第一卡勾通道172及第二卡勾通道174。另外,若按键结构100包含导光板160,导光板160也可具有第一卡勾导孔162及第二卡勾导孔164。当键帽110位于按压位置时,第一卡勾112可进入第一卡勾通道172及第一卡勾导孔162中,第二卡勾114可进入第二卡勾通道174及第二卡勾导孔164中。由于薄膜开关电路170及导光板160上均具有供第一卡勾112及第二卡勾114通过的通道,因此可提供较多的键帽行程空间,并有效地缩减按键结构100整体所需使用的空间,以利于薄型化的应用。Please refer to FIG. 1A and FIG. 5 at the same time, the membrane switch circuit 170 has a first hook channel 172 and a second hook channel 174 .

When the keycap 110 is in the pressed position, the first hook 112 can enter the first hook channel 172 and the first hook guide hole 162, and the second hook 114 can enter the second hook channel 174 and the second hook In the guide hole 164. Since both the membrane switch circuit 170 and the light guide plate 160 have passages for the first hook 112 and the second hook 114 to pass through, more travel space for the keycap can be provided, and the overall required usage of the key structure 100 can be effectively reduced. space, in order to facilitate thin applications.

当使用者不再按压键帽110时,键帽110不再受外力限制,因此键帽110可藉由弹性体180所提供的向上回复力,从图5的按压位置向上回复至图4A及图4B的未按压位置。同时,由于键帽110向上回复,第一卡勾112及第二卡勾114并一并带动第一按压部121及第二按压部131向上举起,使第一金属支撑件120及第二金属支撑件130分别以第一枢接轴145及第二枢接轴155为支点转动,进而使另一侧的第一撑靠部123及第二撑靠部133相互向下抵撑而连动转动,并被收纳于凹陷部171中,如图4A所示。When the user no longer presses the keycap 110, the keycap 110 is no longer restricted by external force, so the keycap 110 can return upward from the pressed position in FIG. 5 to the position shown in FIG. 4A and FIG. Unpressed position of 4B. At the same time, since the keycap 110 returns upward, the first hook 112 and the second hook 114 drive the first pressing part 121 and the second pressing part 131 to lift upward, so that the first metal support 120 and the second metal The supporting member 130 rotates with the first pivot shaft 145 and the second pivot shaft 155 as fulcrums respectively, and then the first supporting part 123 and the second supporting part 133 on the other side support each other downward and rotate in unison. , and is accommodated in the recessed portion 171, as shown in FIG. 4A.

综上所述,本发明的按键结构藉由第一金属支撑件及第二金属支撑件的设置,由于金属材质的刚性强度较佳,且以金属制成的支撑件较薄,因此可有利于按键结构薄型化的应用。其次,由于第一金属支撑件及第二金属支撑件的L形弯折部延伸进入对应的支撑座与底板之间即收纳空间,并分别抵接于对应的支撑座的侧壁,使第一金属支撑件及第二金属支撑件可藉由L形弯折部相对于对应的支撑座转动,进而局限键帽可相对于底板直上、直下地移动。当键帽被按压至按压位置时,键帽的内部空间也可供键帽下方组件的收纳,使空间得以有效地利用。另外,由于薄膜开关电路及导光板上均具有供键帽上的卡勾通过的通道,因此可提供较多的键帽行程空间,并有效地缩减按键结构整体所需使用的空间,以利于薄型化的应用。In summary, the button structure of the present invention is provided with the first metal support and the second metal support, since the rigidity of the metal material is better, and the support made of metal is thinner, it can be beneficial Application of thin button structure. Secondly, since the L-shaped bent portions of the first metal support and the second metal support extend into the storage space between the corresponding support seat and the bottom plate, and abut against the side walls of the corresponding support seat respectively, the first The metal supporting part and the second metal supporting part can rotate relative to the corresponding supporting seat through the L-shaped bending part, thereby restricting the keycap to move straight up and down relative to the bottom plate. When the keycap is pressed to the pressed position, the internal space of the keycap can also be used for accommodating components under the keycap, so that the space can be effectively used. In addition, since both the membrane switch circuit and the light guide plate have passages for the hooks on the keycaps to pass through, more travel space for the keycaps can be provided, and the space required for the overall key structure can be effectively reduced to facilitate thinness. application.
