[0093] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Fig.12 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the button device 100 also includes: a shading member 170, which is located between the mounting plate 120 and the plate body 133, and the shading member 170 is used for shading. The shading member 170 can surround the circumference of any first light-emitting member 132; wherein the mounting plate 120 has a third mounting groove 126, a portion of the shading member 170 is located in the third mounting groove 126, and both ends of the shading member 170 are respectively against the bottom wall of the third mounting groove 126 and the plate body 133.

[0094] In this embodiment, the structure of the key device 100 is further defined. The key device 100 also includes a light shielding member 170, which is used to shield the peripheral side of the first light-emitting member 132 to reduce light leakage. Specifically, the light shielding member 170 is located between the mounting plate 120 and the plate body 133, and the light shielding member 170 is made of an opaque material so that the light shielding member 170 can shield light. In order to fix the light shielding member 170, the present application further provides a third mounting groove 126 on the side of the mounting plate 120 facing the key plate 130, and a part of the light shielding member 170 is located in the third mounting groove 126 to limit the light shielding member 170. The two ends of the light shielding member 170 are respectively against the bottom wall of the third mounting groove 126 and the plate body 133, so that the light shielding member 170 can be clamped by the mounting plate 120 and the plate body 133 to fix the light shielding member 170. The shading member 170 surrounds the circumference of any first light emitting member 132 . Thus, the circumference of the first light emitting member 132 can be shielded by the shading member 170 to reduce light leakage of the key device 100 .

[0095] like Fig.12 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the outer shell 110 is provided with a plurality of button holes 113 , and the button holes 113 are arranged corresponding to the key cap assembly 141 , and the button holes 113 are used to avoid the key cap assembly 141 .

[0096] In this embodiment, the positional relationship between the outer shell 110 and the keycap assembly 141 is limited. The outer shell 110 is provided with a plurality of key holes 113, and the key holes 113 are arranged one by one with the keycap assembly 141. The key holes 113 can avoid the keycap assembly 141, and a part of the keycap assembly 141 is exposed to the outer shell 110 through the key holes 113, so that the user can operate the key device 100, thereby improving the user's convenience.

[0097] like Figure 7 and Fig.10 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the surface of the mounting plate 120 facing the sealing member 150 has a plurality of waterproof protrusions 128 , and the plurality of waterproof protrusions 128 protrude from the surface of the mounting plate 120 .

[0098] In this embodiment, the structure of the mounting plate 120 is further defined. The surface of the mounting plate 120 facing the sealing member 150 has a plurality of waterproof protrusions 128, which protrude from the surface of the mounting plate 120 and fit the sealing member 150. Since the sealing member 150 is an elastic sealing member, by providing the waterproof protrusions 128 on the surface of the mounting plate 120, the sealing member 150 can be squeezed by the waterproof protrusions 128, thereby increasing the deformation of the sealing member 150 and improving the waterproof effect of the sealing member 150.

[0099] Furthermore, multiple waterproof protrusions 128 are sequentially arranged around the circumference of the first mounting groove 122, and are sequentially arranged in a direction away from the first mounting groove 122, thereby preventing water or other liquids from flowing into the key panel 130 through the avoidance opening 121, thereby improving the waterproof effect of the seal 150.

[0100] like Fig.14 As shown, the second aspect of the present invention further proposes an energy storage device 200, including the key device 100 proposed in the first aspect of the present invention.

[0101] The energy storage device 200 provided in the second aspect of the present invention includes the key device 100 provided in the first aspect of the present invention, and therefore has all the beneficial effects of the key device 100.

[0102] In a possible embodiment, the light emitted by the second light emitting element 134 is transmitted to the outside of the chassis through the light guide 127 on the mounting plate 120. The light guide 127 is made of a transparent material, and the transparent material is mixed with a light-scattering material to make the light source uniform. The light emitted by the first light emitting element 132 first passes through the translucent sealing element 150, which is made of translucent silicone. This step softens the light, and then passes through the first light-transmitting hole 144 of the hard keycap to the outside of the outer shell 110.

[0103] Furthermore, the seal 150 can be used as a waterproof interface, and the hard key cap assembly 141 is located outside the waterproof interface and communicates with the outside. The seal 150 is fixed and limited by the second installation groove 123 of the installation plate 120, and the installation is simple.

[0104] Furthermore, except for the light guide 127, the rest of the mounting plate 120 is not connected to the outside. The waterproof protrusion 128 provided on the mounting plate 120 compresses the seal 150, and the compression rate of the seal 150 can reach 60%, while the compression rate of the rest of the seal 150 that is not in contact with the waterproof protrusion 128 is only about 30%. The waterproof performance of the key device 100 can be improved by providing the waterproof protrusion 128. The thickness of the seal 150 is about 1 mm, and the seal 150 is made of silicone, and the Shore hardness of the silicone is 30.

[0105] Furthermore, when the stroke of the keycap assembly 141 is in the range of 0.15mm to 0.45mm, the switching force of the keycap assembly 141 is 2.05N to 3.05N, and the deformation of the seal 150 is 0.05mm to 0.25mm. In the stage where the stroke of the keycap assembly 141 is between 0mm and 0.25mm, the seal 150 is not compressed, and the resistance generated by the seal 150 to the keycap assembly 141 is very small. In the stage where the stroke of the keycap assembly 141 is between 0.25mm and 0.4mm, the seal 150 deforms in thickness as it is pressed, and the resistance generated by the seal 150 to the keycap assembly 141 becomes significantly larger. The above changes are reflected in the user's feel that the keycap assembly 141 is easier to press in the early stage, and there is an elastic resistance feedback when it is pressed to the bottom.

[0106] Furthermore, a single keycap assembly 141 is surrounded by four tortuous connecting arms 146, so that no matter how far the finger pressure direction deviates from the center of the keycap assembly 141, good pressing feedback can be obtained, ensuring that the pressing feel is close, and this design makes the feel of each keycap assembly 141 consistent.

[0107] In the present invention, the term "plurality" means two or more than two, unless otherwise clearly defined. The terms "install", "connect", "connect", "fix" and the like should be understood in a broad sense.
