Abstract

The invention relates to a key and a keyboard. The key comprises a keycap, a clamping structure, a first supporting piece, a second supporting piece, a first connecting rod and a second connecting rod. The keycap is arranged on the clamping structure. One end of the first supporting piece is movably connected with the keycap, and the other end of the first supporting piece is movably connected with the clamping structure. One end of the second supporting piece is movably connected with the keycap, and the other end of the second supporting piece is movably connected with the clamping structure. The first connecting rod is arranged on the outer side of the first supporting piece. The second connecting rod is arranged on the outer side of the second supporting piece. One part of the first connecting rod and one part of the second connecting rod are arranged on the clamping structure in a slidable mode. The other part of the first connecting rod and the other part of the second connecting rod are connected on the keycap in a pivot mode. When the keycap is not pressed, the distance between the clamping structure and the keycap, the first supporting piece and the second supporting piece are arranged between the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod, and do not overlap the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod. According to the key, the two connecting rods are arranged on the outer sides of the supporting pieces, and are used for limiting and adjusting the height of the key, the height and the gradient of the key can be finely adjusted.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a key and a keyboard using the same, and in particular to a key whose height is limited by a connecting rod and a keyboard using the same. Background technique [0002] In the traditional scissor key structure, two opposite supports are used to elevate the key cap, and the key cap can move straight up and down with the movement of the support. Since the supporting member has the function of driving and fixing the keycap at the same time, the structure is relatively complicated, and a small size error may cause the height of the key to be uneven and cause inclination. Contents of the invention [0003] The invention relates to a key and a keyboard using the same. The height of the key is limited by two opposite connecting rods. [0004] According to a first aspect of the present invention, a key is provided. The button includes a keycap, an engaging structure, a first support, a second support, a first connecting rod...
