Keycap structure and button

Abstract

A keycap structure is combined with an elevating mechanism so as to move between a pressing position and a non-pressing position. The keycap structure comprises a keycap, a first lead circuit, a second lead circuit and a flexible circuit board. The keycap possesses a top surface, a bottom surface and a clamping structure. The top surface and the bottom surface are opposite to each other. The clamping structure is formed through protruding from the bottom surface so as to be clamped and connected to the elevating mechanism. The first lead circuit is arranged on the top surface so as to connectan induction device or display equipment attached to the top surface. The second lead circuit is arranged on the bottom surface, avoids the position of the clamping structure and passes through the keycap so as to connect the first lead circuit. The flexible circuit board is connected to the second lead circuit and carries out electric signal transmission of the induction device or the display equipment via the first lead circuit and the second lead circuit. The problems of the time consuming and labor consuming and the high assembling failure rate of a button assembling process can be effectively solved, the manufacturing yield of a keyboard is improved, and through the additional function of the induction device, the functionality and the practicality of a key are increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a keycap structure and its keys, in particular to a card in which a first wire circuit and a second wire circuit are respectively arranged directly on the top surface and the bottom surface of the keycap and the second wire circuit is avoided from the bottom surface of the keycap. The combined structure of the keycap structure and its keys. 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, but all consumer electronic products in daily life or large-scale processing equipment used in the industry need to be equipped with a key structure as an input device for users to perform operations such as character input. [0003] In practical applications, in order to make the keys have other application functions (such as fingerprint recognition, image display, etc.), the...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] In view of the problems in the prior art, the present invention provides a key cap and its key junction, which adopts the method of directly laying the first wire circuit and the second wire circuit on the top surface and the bottom surface of the key cap respectively, and makes the second wire circuit avoid the key The design of the snap-fit ​​structure on the bottom surface of the cap, the induction device or the display device is attached to the first wire circuit, so that the flexible circuit board can carry out the electrical signal of the induction device or the display device through the first wire circuit and the second wire circuit The transmission does not require additional snap-in structural sheets, so the present invention can effectively solve the problems of time-consuming and labor-intensive key assembly process and high assembly defect rate mentioned in the prior art, thereby improving the manufacturing yield of the keyboard, and can pass Additional functions (such as fingerprint recognition function or image display function, etc.) provided by the induction device or display device attached to the first wire circuit further enhance the functionality and practicability of the button
