Keycap structure and keys

Abstract

The invention discloses a keycap structure and a button. The keycap structure can be movably connected to first and second support members of the button, and the first and second support members can be movably connected to the bottom plate of the button so that the keycap structure can Moving up and down relative to the bottom plate, the end of the first supporting member is connected to the keycap structure and has a shaft structure. The keycap structure includes a keycap main body, a slide groove structure and a limiting structure. The bottom surface of the keycap main body extends along the X-axis and the Y-axis, and the X-axis, the Y-axis and the Z-axis are perpendicular to each other. The chute structure protrudes from the bottom surface along the Z-axis, and a first chute is formed along the X-axis at a position corresponding to the first shaft end of the shaft structure to allow the first shaft end to be movably inserted in the first chute. The limiting structure protrudes from the bottom surface along the Z-axis to stop the displacement of the axis structure along the Y-axis to limit the first shaft end in the first chute. The present invention can prevent the shaft structure of the supporting member from accidentally falling off from the sliding groove of the key cap structure when the key cap structure is deflected and deformed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a keycap structure and a key, in particular to a keycap structure and a key that use a limiting structure to block the displacement of a shaft structure to increase the disassembly and pulling force between the keycap structure and a support. 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 key structures as input devices to operate the above-mentioned electronic products and processing equipment. [0003] see figure 1 , which is a schematic cross-sectional view of the key 1 in the prior art. Such as figure 1 As shown, the button 1 includes a bottom plate 10, a keycap 12, a supporting device 14 and an elastic member 16. The supporting d...

Problems solved by technology

However, the above method tends to cause excessive assembly resistance between the first sliding shaft 23 and the first chute 11 during the assembly of the keycap 12 and the support device 14, which makes it difficult to install the keycap 12 and the support device 14 easily. The problem of being damaged during the assembly process

Although the above-mentioned problem can be solved by properly reducing the depth of the first sliding groove 11, it will reduce the pull-out force between the keycap 12 and the support device 14 and cause the keycap 12 to be easily removed from the support. The problem of falling off on the device 14
