Abstract

The present invention discloses an ultrathin optical reflective input equipment switch module possessing a tooth-shaped structure. The ultrathin optical reflective input equipment switch module possessing the tooth-shaped structure comprises a keycap, a key shaft, a spring, an upper fixing shell, a lower fixing shell and a PCB, and an ultrathin reflective photoelectric keyboard switch module also comprises a light emitting device and a light receiving device. A light path channel is formed between the light emitting device and the light receiving device and comprises a light path switch, and the light path switch comprises a rack located below the keycap and a gear or a cam located on the PCB. By pressing the keycap, the rack located therebelow moves up and down to drive the gear or the cam to do the radial rotary movement, thereby conducting or disconnecting the light path channel. The ultrathin optical reflective input equipment switch module possessing the tooth-shaped structure has the characteristics of being simple in structure, low in cost and low in switch module height, being convenient to assemble, etc., and the height of the ultrathin optical reflective input equipment switch module is only 1/3-1/4 of the height of a conventional mechanical shaft keyboard.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention involves the technical field of electronic device input equipment, and specially involves an input device switch module with an ultra -thin optical reflection with tooth structure. Background technique [0002] The mechanical keyboard is the mainstream of the computer keyboard market. Its working principle is that there is a circuit board at the bottom of the keyboard. There are more than 100 mechanical shafts on the board. Each axis is an independent switch.Transmit from the circuit board to the computer.The performance of mechanical keyboards is outstanding, sensitive, and feels better. At the same time, it is suitable for the needs of office workers and gamers.However, the disadvantages of the pure mechanical axis keyboard switch are: First, the pure mechanical axis switch uses a metal contact sheet to contact the inspiration and disconnection of the non -contact action.Fatigue damage, the ammunition contact point is easy to wear, so that t...
