Problems solved by technology

However, due to the thickness of the known keycap and the specific height of the lifting mechanism components (such as rubber gaskets or scissor foot structures), it will result in the need to occupy a larger mechanism stack height, thereby further increasing the overall height of the keyboard device, so It is not conducive to the application of thin keyboard, which will limit the appearance and size design of notebook computers, and is not conducive to the thinning trend of notebook computers
Furthermore, the currently known design of keycaps with rubber gaskets or scissor foot structures needs to reserve a gap to prevent the keycap clips from moving up and down, which will easily cause dust or moisture to enter the interior of the keyboard device, and greatly reduce the keyboard. Excellent dustproof and waterproof effect

Embodiment Construction

[0048] Please refer to figure 1 , figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the appearance of a keyboard device 50 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The keyboard device 50 includes a bottom plate 52 and a plurality of convex keycap structures 54 , each convex keycap structure 54 is disposed on the bottom plate 52 , and the bottom plate 52 can be a metal bottom plate to provide structural strength. In this embodiment, the keyboard device 50 can be a keyboard module applied to a notebook computer, but not limited thereto. For example, the keyboard device 50 can also be a keyboard module applied to an electronic device, such as a tablet computer, a TV remote control, a desktop computer, and the like. As for which of the above-mentioned designs is adopted, it depends on actual needs.

[0049] see figure 2 , figure 2 It is a partial cross-sectional schematic view of the keyboard device 50 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. The action ...

Abstract

The present invention discloses a keyboard device. The keyboard device includes a sheet, a membrane switch, an actuating component, and a protrusion keycap structure. The membrane switch is disposed on a side of the sheet. The actuating component is disposed on a side of the membrane switch far away from the sheet and is for pressing the membrane switch to actuate the membrane switch. The protrusion keycap structure is disposed on a side of the actuating component far away from the membrane switch and is for driving the actuating component to actuate the membrane switch upon being pressed. The protrusion keycap structure includes a mylar film.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention provides a keyboard device, especially a keyboard device with a thin structure design and an operating feel. Background technique [0002] As far as the current usage habits of notebook computers are concerned, the keyboard device is one of the indispensable input devices for inputting characters, symbols or numbers. Recently, due to the thinning trend of notebook computers, there is a demand for thinner keyboards used in notebook computers. Known keyboards are often provided with lifting mechanism components, such as rubber domes or scissor foot structures, between the keycaps and the bottom plate, as a source of force for resetting the keycaps after they are pressed. However, due to the thickness of the known keycap and the specific height of the lifting mechanism components (such as rubber gaskets or scissor foot structures), it will result in the need to occupy a larger mechanism stack height, thereby further increasing the overall h...
