Abstract

The invention relates to a keyboard, which comprises a first keycap, a second keycap, a thin-film switch layer, a circuit board and a microswitch, wherein the thin-film switch layer is arranged below the first keycap and the second keycap and comprises a switching circuit and a through hole, the position of the through hole corresponds to the first keycap, and the position of the switching circuit corresponds to the second keycap; the circuit board is arranged below the thin-film switch layer; and the microswitch is electrically connected with the circuit board and passes through the thorough hole to be arranged just below the first keycap. When the first keycap is pressed, the first keycap moves towards the circuit board so as to trigger the microswitch; and when the second keycap is pressed, the second keycap moves towards the circuit board so as to trigger the switching circuit. The keyboard provided by the invention integrates two kinds of keys with different actuation mechanisms: the microswitch and a thin-film circuit switch, thereby improving the manufacturability of the keyboard, and satisfying the requirements on operation hand feeling and triggering speed of a user when playing games.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to a keyboard, in particular to a keyboard integrated with different actuating mechanisms. Background technique

[0002] With the prevalence of computer games, the keyboard design using the membrane switch layer to provide the button actuation mechanism has a poor pressing feel due to the lack of obvious step feedback, which cannot satisfy the user's operating feeling. Therefore, while pursuing trigger speed and operating feel, micro switches have gradually become an important choice for providing key actuating mechanisms. However, the micro switch has a considerable volume due to its mechanical design, and cannot be applied to keyboards with keys of various sizes.

[0003] Therefore, how to integrate keys with different actuating mechanisms to meet user's operation requirements and improve manufacturability has become one of the important considerations in keyboard design. Contents of the invention
