Problems solved by technology

Especially for the aforementioned multiple keys, the thinner keycap is not easy to keep moving up and down during the pressing process, and it is easier to deform when subjected to partial pressing. Therefore, in addition to the aforementioned connecting rod, there must be a Other solutions make the operation of the keys more stable and effective

Embodiment Construction

[0039] Certain terms are used in the description and claims to refer to particular elements. Those of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that manufacturers may refer to the same element by different terms. The specification and claims do not use the difference in name as a way to distinguish components, but use the difference in function of components as a criterion for distinguishing. "Includes" mentioned throughout the specification and claims is an open term, so it should be interpreted as "including but not limited to". In addition, the terms "coupled" or "connected" herein include any direct and indirect electrical or structural connection means. Therefore, if it is described in the text that a first device is coupled or connected to a second device, it means that the first device may be directly electrically or structurally connected to the second device, or indirectly electrically or structurally connected through other devices or connection means. to the secon...

Abstract

The invention provides a thin key and a keyboard design. A reinforcing rod with asymmetric section or oblong section is disposed on the lower surface of a keycap. The rigidity and strength of the keycap is improved, the keycap less easily deforms or bends during high-frequency push, and the see-saw effect when the keycap is pushed is reduced. As the machining processes such as stamping are performed, the sectional size of the reinforcing rod, in the moving direction of the keycap, is smaller than that in other directions, the shank strength of the reinforcing rod is maintained and the motion of the keycap is unaffected.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a key and a keyboard, in particular to a key with a flat reinforced rod structure and a keyboard with the key. Background technique [0002] As far as current personal computer usage habits are concerned, the keyboard is one of the indispensable input devices for inputting characters, symbols or numbers. Not only that, any consumer electronic products or large-scale processing equipment used in the industry in daily life must be equipped with a key structure as an input device to operate the above-mentioned electronic products or processing equipment. [0003] In a traditional keyboard, when a key is pressed, in order to effectively actuate the switch under the key and obtain a good feeling of lifting the key, some auxiliary structures are usually added. For example, in a multiple key with a larger size, because the multiple key has a larger area, it is not enough to support the multiple key evenly by relying only on the elast...
