For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0024] REFERENCE Figures 1 to 6As shown, a key mechanism of an electronic piano keyboard comprises white key guide teeth 4 and black key guide teeth 5 provided on a key support 1 of the electronic piano keyboard at positions corresponding to each white key 2 and black key 3, each of the white key 2 and black key 3 is provided with an integrally formed key tenon 6 at a front end, the key tenon 6 is connected with the key support 1 through an elastic mechanism 7, the elastic mechanism 7 comprises a first connecting piece 8 and a second connecting piece 9 arranged in longitudinal opposition, the first connecting piece 8 and the second connecting piece 9 are connected through an elastic piece 89, wherein the elastic piece 89 is an integral structure with the first connecting piece 8 and the second connecting piece 9.

[0025] In order to form an elastic connection between the first connecting piece 8 and the second connecting piece 9, in the embodiment, the elastic piece 89 is made of a ductile material. That is, the elastic piece 89 can be a metal material or a non-metal material, when the elastic piece 89 adopts a non-metal material, a material such as plastic with good ductility can be used.

[0026] Specifically, the first connecting piece 8 and the second connecting piece 9 each comprise a support portion 80, each support portion 80 is provided with a limiting portion 81 at a lower end to form an active spacing 82 between the two limiting portions 81 to control the pressing stroke of the black and white keys and prevent the black and white keys from being pressed excessively, the support portion 80 is provided with a positioning column 83 and a connecting rod 84 at an upper end, the end of the positioning column 83 is provided with an upwardly protruding positioning portion 830, the end of the connecting rod 84 is provided with an outwardly protruding positioning buckle 840, the key support 1 and the key tenon 6 are each provided with a positioning hole 831 fixedly matched with the positioning portion 830 and a buckle hole 841 fixedly matched with the positioning buckle 840. That is, the positioning hole 831 on the key support 1 is connected with the positioning portion 830 on the first connecting piece 8, and the buckle hole 841 on the key support 1 is connected with the positioning buckle 840 on the first connecting piece 8; the positioning hole 831 on the key tenon 6 is connected with the positioning portion 830 on the second connecting piece 8, and the buckle hole 841 on the key tenon 6 is connected with the positioning buckle 840 on the first connecting piece 8; since the elastic mechanism is made of a ductile material, the positioning hole 831 has a diameter slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the positioning portion 830 so that the positioning hole 831 can fix the positioning portion 830.

[0027] In addition, a first inclined surface 10 and a second inclined surface 60 are provided between the key support 1 and the key tenon 6 and the positioning buckle 840 respectively, the first inclined surface 10 is located on one side of the buckle hole 841, and the second inclined surface 60 is located on one side of the positioning buckle 840, so that the first connecting piece 8 is more firmly connected with the key tenon 6, and the second connecting piece 9 is more firmly connected with the key support 1.

[0028] In order to enable the positioning buckle 840 to be firmly clamped in the clasp hole 840, the center distance between the positioning hole 831 and the clasp hole 841 is smaller than the center distance between the positioning part 830 and the connecting rod 84. During installation, since the elastic mechanism is integrally made of a ductile material, the positioning column 83 and the connecting rod 84 can be deformed towards or away from each other, that is, deforming the positioning column 83 and the connecting rod 84 towards each other so that the center distance between the two is adapted to the center distance between the positioning part 830 and the connecting rod 84, the positioning buckle can be inserted into the clasp hole, the positioning part is inserted into the positioning hole, and finally the positioning column 83 and the connecting rod 84 return to the original state, the second inclined surface 60 of the positioning buckle 840 is tightly attached to the first inclined surface 10, and the two are firmly connected and are not easy to fall off.

[0029] It should be noted that the hollow structure 832 is provided on the positioning column 83, which can reduce the material and reduce the weight of the elastic mechanism

[0030] Although the embodiments of the utility model have been shown and described, those skilled in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, replacements and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and purposes of the utility model, and the scope of the utility model is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
