[0038] As shown in Figures 2 to 5As shown, the circuit board 2 is provided with a plurality of trigger pieces 21. The operating device 4 includes a plurality of operating keys 41 and a plurality of elastic return members 42. Each operating key 41 is movably arranged on the housing 1 and surrounds the display screen 3. Each operating key 41 is movably abutted against a corresponding trigger piece 21. Each elastic return member 42 is arranged in the housing 1 and is correspondingly and drivably connected to a corresponding operating key 41. Each operating key 41 is correspondingly and movably abutted against a corresponding trigger piece 21. Each elastic return member 42 is correspondingly and drivably connected to a corresponding elastic return member 42. The elastic return member 42 is configured to provide a restoring force for returning the operating key 41 to an original position.

[0039] It can be understood that the circuit board 2 is provided with a plurality of trigger pieces 21. Each trigger piece 21 is configured to receive a signal from the operating key 41 and convert the signal into a corresponding game instruction. The display screen 3 is configured to display a game picture and other related information. The size of the display screen 3 can be adjusted according to actual needs to adapt to different types of games.

[0040] The plurality of operating keys 41 are arranged on the housing 1 around the display screen 3. Such an arrangement not only makes the distance between the operating keys 41 moderate and reduces the possibility of accidental touch, but also makes it more convenient for the user to touch all the operating keys 41. Each operating key 41 corresponds to a trigger piece 21 on the circuit board 2. When the user presses the operating key 41, the operating key 41 directly acts on the corresponding trigger piece 21 to trigger the corresponding circuit on the circuit board 2.

[0041] Each operating key 41 is provided with an elastic return member 42 below. Each elastic return member 42 is installed inside the housing 1. The main function of the elastic return member 42 is to provide a restoring force after the operating key 41 is pressed, so that the operating key 41 can quickly return to the original position. Since each operating key 41 has an independent elastic return member 42, it ensures that each operating key can independently and accurately complete the reset action after being pressed, effectively avoiding mutual interference between the operating keys.

[0042] As shown in FIG. 1, Figures 2 to 5 In some embodiments of the button game machine 10, at least one operating key 41 movably abuts against a plurality of trigger pieces 21.

[0043] It can be understood that on the circuit board 2, a plurality of trigger pieces 21 are arranged below at least one operating key 41, that is, at least part of the operating keys 41 are provided with two or more trigger pieces 21 below. These trigger pieces 21 can be distributed at different positions on the bottom of the operating keys 41.

[0044] Although the operating key 41 can trigger a plurality of trigger pieces 21, each operating key 41 is still provided with an independent elastic return member 42.

[0045] As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 3 andFigure 4 As shown, the trigger piece includes a conductive glue piece.

[0046] As can be understood, the conductive glue piece has excellent electrical conductivity and certain deformation reset performance. When the conductive glue piece is deformed by the top holding of the operation key 41, the conductive glue piece will correspondingly bear on the circuit board 2, thereby connecting the contacts at the corresponding positions on the circuit board 2, further making the corresponding circuits on the circuit board 2 conductive, and finally making the circuit board 2 control the display screen 3 to make corresponding feedback.

[0047] Further, the conductive glue piece can be configured to include a base abutting on the circuit board and a column body arranged on the base. When the column body is top-held by the operation key 41, the column body will move relative to the base towards the direction close to the circuit board 2, so that the column body forms a corresponding trigger after contacting the circuit board 2.

[0048] As shown, Figures 2 to 5 In some embodiments of the button game machine 10, at least one operation arm 411 is arranged on each operation key 41, and each operation arm 411 corresponds to a trigger piece 21.
