Detailed Implementation

[0027] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can better understand and implement the present invention. However, the embodiments described are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0028] This invention provides a translational mouse-key structure and a mouse device having the translational mouse-key structure. For example... Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this is the translational mouse-key structure of the present invention; as Figure 6As shown, the mouse device with the translation type mouse key structure of the present application.

[0029] As shown, the mouse device with the translation type mouse key structure of the present application. Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the mouse device with the translation type mouse key structure of the present application.

[0030] The circuit board 1 has an upper surface and a lower surface (both not marked with element symbols) opposite to each other, the upper surface faces upward, the lower surface faces downward, the circuit board 1 is thus defined with a longitudinal direction (or an up-down direction) not shown in the figure, and the longitudinal direction is perpendicular to the circuit board 1.

[0031] The press switch 2 is a press switch and has a button 21, the button 21 can be pressed to control the conduction (ON). The button 21 can be elastically reset, for example, using an elastic element not shown in the figure to elastically reset the button 21 along the aforementioned longitudinal direction, and to restore to the non-conduction (OFF) state after reset. The press switch 2 is arranged on the circuit board 1, and the press switch 2 is electrically connected to the circuit board 1.

[0032] The key plate 4 is a sheet body and is arranged above the circuit board 1. The key plate 4 includes a pressing portion 42 and two first mounting groups 45. Specifically, the key plate 4 has an inner surface (not marked with element symbols), and the pressing portion 42 is formed on the inner surface. In this embodiment, the pressing portion 42 is a columnar body protruding from the inner surface to the direction of the circuit board 1 as shown, but the present application is not limited thereto, as long as the pressing portion 42 can be pressed to correspond to the button 21 after the key plate 4 is pressed. The two first mounting groups 45 are used for mounting the cross member 5.

[0033] The mounting member 3 is arranged on the circuit board 1 and faces the aforementioned inner surface of the key plate 4. The mounting member 3 includes two second mounting groups 32, and the two second mounting groups 32 are opposite to and face each other with the two first mounting groups 45. The two second mounting groups 32 are also used for mounting the cross member 5.

[0034] The cross member 5 is bridged between the key plate 4 and the mounting member 3 in a translational manner, which means that the cross member 5 moves in translation along the aforementioned longitudinal direction, and the key plate 4 is inclined relative to the mounting member 3 (or relative to the circuit board 1) after being bridged. The cross member 5 is provided with a plurality of corresponding mounting groups 54, 55, which are used to connect with the two first mounting groups 45 and the two second mounting groups 32.

[0035] It is to be noted that each of the aforementioned installation groups has at least two installation parts, wherein the first installation group 45 has at least two first installation parts 451, the second installation group 32 has at least two second installation parts 322, the corresponding installation group 54 has at least two corresponding installation parts 541, and the corresponding installation group 55 has at least two corresponding installation parts 551. The two first installation groups 45 together form a first virtual plane (not shown in the figure) with a plurality of first installation parts 451, the two second installation groups 32 together form a second virtual plane (not shown in the figure) with a plurality of second installation parts 322, the two corresponding installation groups 54 together form a third virtual plane (not shown in the figure) with a plurality of corresponding installation parts 541, and the two corresponding installation groups 55 together form a fourth virtual plane (not shown in the figure) with a plurality of corresponding installation parts 551. The first virtual plane, the second virtual plane, the third virtual plane, and the fourth virtual plane are parallel to each other.

[0036] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 , each corresponding installation part 541 is rotatably connected to each first installation part 451, and each corresponding installation part 551 is rotatably connected to each second installation part 322, so that the key plate 4 can move together with the cross member 5 along the aforementioned longitudinal direction. It is to be noted that the pressing part 42 of the key plate 4 corresponds to abut against the button 21 of the press switch 2, so that as long as the key plate 4 is pressed, the pressing part 42 can press the button 21, and the button 21 can push the key plate 4 to move reversely by using the aforementioned elastic resettable characteristic.

[0037] It is to be further noted that in order to enable the key plate 4 to be inclined with respect to the installation member 3 (or with respect to the circuit board 1) while being movable, the key plate 4 can further include a plate body 41, a long bracket 43, and a short bracket 44. The plate body 41 is inclined at an angle with respect to the installation member 3 (or with respect to the circuit board 1), the long bracket 43 and the short bracket 44 both protrude from the aforementioned inner face of the plate body 41 towards the installation member 3 (or towards the circuit board 1), and a plurality of first installation parts 451 are respectively arranged at the protruding ends of the long bracket 43 and the short bracket 44. As shown in Figure 5 , the installation member 3 includes a seat body 31, and the seat body 31 is provided with the aforementioned second installation group 32; as shown in Figure 2 , the long bracket 43 and the short bracket 44 are spaced apart from and parallel to each other, the installation member 3 is perpendicular to the long bracket 43 (or the short bracket 44), and the plate body 41, the long bracket 43, the short bracket 44, and the seat body 31 together form a right-angled trapezoid.

[0038] Therefore, the plate body 41 of the key plate 4 can be moved along the aforementioned longitudinal direction together with the cross member 5, so that the plate body 41 of the key plate 4 can be changed to move along the longitudinal direction linearly when being pressed. In this way, the user can press any point on the plate body 41 with the same pressing force and the same pressing stroke, and the user can press the key plate 4 without having to specially select the pressing position, and the user has a better pressing experience.

[0039] In detail, as shown in Figure 3 , the cross member 5 comprises an inner frame 52 and an outer frame 53. The inner frame 52 is rotatably connected to the middle segment of the outer frame 53 at the middle segment and intersects each other. Two of the plurality of corresponding mounting groups 54, 55 are arranged at one end of the inner frame 52 and one end of the outer frame 53, respectively; the remaining two of the plurality of corresponding mounting groups 54, 55 are arranged at the other end of the inner frame 52 and the other end of the outer frame 53, respectively.

[0040] Further, as shown in Figures 1 to 4 and Figure 2 , the seat body 31 of the mounting member 3 has a first face 31a and a second face 31b opposite to each other. The seat body 31 is arranged on the circuit board 1 by the second face 31b, and all the second mounting groups 32 are arranged on the first face 31a.

[0041] In addition, in order to ensure that the button 21 of the press switch 2 is abutted and pressed by the pressing part 42, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 2 , the cross member 5 has a first through hole 51, and the seat body 31 has a second through hole 312, so that the press switch 2 can be exposed from the second through hole 312 and located in the first through hole 51, and the button 21 can be directly abutted by the pressing part 42.

[0042] It is worth noting that by bridging the cross member 5 between the key plate 4 and the mounting member 3, the cross member 5 can properly hold the key plate 4. In this way, even if there is an improper gap between the pressing part 42 and the button 21 due to tolerance problems (not shown in the figure), the mouse key structure 100 of the present application can hold the key plate 4 by the cross member 5 to eliminate the improper gap by pulling the key plate 4 together with the pressing part 42 towards the press switch 2, and even can eliminate the noise generated by the shaking or vibration of the key plate 4 at the same time.

[0043] As shown in Figure 4 and in conjunction with Figure 6 and Figure 1 Figure 2As shown, the mouse device with the translation type mouse key structure (hereinafter referred to as the mouse device) comprises a shell 800 and at least one translation type mouse key structure (i.e. the mouse key structure as referred to above) 100. The mouse device of the present application is not limited to have several mouse key structures 100, and two mouse key structures 100 are taken as an example for description in the embodiment.

[0044] The shell 800 is provided with an opening 8. The two mouse key structures 100 are arranged in the shell 800, and the plate bodies 41 of the two key plates 4 are closed side by side with each other corresponding to the opening 8, in other words, the two plate bodies 41 are exposed through the opening 8.

[0045] It is worth mentioning that the plate body 41 of each mouse key structure 100 is completely separated from the shell 800, that is, the plate body 41 is no longer connected to the shell and can only be pivoted up and down at the connection as in the prior art. The plate body 41 of the present application can indeed move along the longitudinal direction together with the cross member 5.

[0046] In summary, the translation type mouse key structure and the mouse device with the translation type mouse key structure of the present application can achieve the intended use and solve the problems of the prior art. The above-mentioned embodiment is only a preferred embodiment for fully illustrating the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto.
