Keyboard structure and manufacturing method thereof

Abstract

The invention provides a keyboard structure and a manufacturing method thereof. The keyboard structure comprises a bottom plate, a soft protective cover and a frame, wherein the bottom plate is provided with a plurality of keys, and each key is provided with a key cap; the soft protective cover is arranged above the bottom plate and covers the keys arranged on the bottom plate; the frame is arranged on the soft protective cover and provided with a first surface, an opposite second surface and a plurality of openings penetrating through the first surface and the second surface; the openings correspond to the hollow protruding structures; the second surface is provided with concave parts arranged on the peripheries of the openings in a surrounding mode; the hollow protruding structure part of the soft protective cover penetrates through the opening of the frame and is exposed out of the frame; and the elastic buffering part of the hollow protruding structure is located in the concave part of the frame and is covered by the frame.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a structure of an input device, in particular to a keyboard structure with a soft protective cover. Background technique [0002] In today's society, the use of electronic devices has become an indispensable part of life. Food, clothing, housing, transportation, education, and entertainment are all related to electronic devices. Generally speaking, consumer electronic devices are configured with a keyboard structure. [0003] Because electronic devices are inseparable from people's lives, if users are not careful when using them, they may splash drinks or water on the surface of the electronic device, so that drinks or water may flow from the gap between the key and the housing. Penetrate into the electronic device, and cause damage to the electronic device. In addition, dust in the air may also enter through the gap between the key and the casing, thereby affecting the operation of the electronic device. [0004] In order t...

Problems solved by technology

However, the elastic buffer structure of the aforementioned soft protective cover, such as: the connecting part or the sheet-like body is exposed on the interface of the key operation, in the state of frequent pressing of the keyboard, it is easy to cause the rupture or damage of the elastic buffer structure of the soft protective cover , so that the soft protective cover loses the effect of waterproof and dustproof, and also makes the keyboard covered by the soft protective cover lose the good pressing feel

In addition, because the material of the soft protective cover is usually different from that of the keycap, it is difficult for the soft protective cover to fit the surface of the keycap completely. May affect the pressing feel of the keyboard
