[0002] In order to protect electronic products such as mobile phones and tablets, most of them are equipped with a protective case when in use. However, with the development of electronic products such as mobile phones and tablets, the buttons of today's electronic products such as mobile phones and tablets not only have a press trigger function, but also a touch trigger function. In the face of such electronic products, traditional protective cases cannot well adapt to the touch trigger requirements of their buttons.

[0003] In order to solve the problems of the above-mentioned prior art, a prior patent discloses a mobile phone protective case with touch-sensitive buttons (application number CN202320719009.2), which includes a mobile phone protective case body, a button mounting slot provided on the mobile phone protective case body, and a conductive button assembly provided in the button mounting slot; the conductive button assembly is composed of a conductive silicone button and a metal frame sleeved on the outside of the conductive silicone button, and the metal frame is snapped into the button mounting slot; by setting the volume button and the power button on the mobile phone protective case as buttons composed of a conductive silicone button and a metal frame, the volume button and the power button have touch functions. However, when the conductive silicone button is used, it needs to be pressed so that the conductive rubber under the conductive silicone button triggers the touch button of the mobile phone; and in this process, the press trigger function of the mobile phone touch button is easily triggered, thereby affecting the accuracy of the touch operation.
