Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to mechanical keyboard technical field, concretely is a keyboard axle body and mechanical keyboard. BACKGROUND

[0002] Mechanical keyboard is an input device based on mechanical switch, compared with traditional membrane keyboard, mechanical keyboard provides more superior touch, response speed and durability. Its core component is mechanical keyboard axle body, determines the triggering characteristic of each key. Different types of axle body design are different in touch, sound and feedback, can satisfy the demand of different users, for example, diversified use experience in game, office and programming etc.

[0003] In order to cater to the growing needs of DIY enthusiasts, many mechanical keyboard designs begin to introduce replaceable axle body. This design concept enables users to flexibly replace or upgrade the axle body of the keyboard at any time according to personal preferences and specific application scenarios, improving the personalized customization capability of the keyboard. However, the existing replaceable axle body design still has some deficiencies.

[0004] Firstly, most replaceable mechanical keyboard axle bodies need to be disassembled using a special keyboard axle puller. Although this tool is usually simple in design, users still need to exert a certain amount of force to pull out the axle body during operation. This design limits the convenience of users replacing the axle body to some extent, especially for those who are using a mechanical keyboard for the first time, which may face the risk of improper operation.

[0005] Secondly, the keyboard axle puller is a relatively small tool that is easy to lose. Once the user loses this tool, they cannot manually complete the replacement of the axle body, resulting in the user being unable to enjoy the flexibility and convenience brought by the replaceable axle body. This situation not only causes inconvenience to the user, but also may make them feel frustrated during use, reducing the overall satisfaction of the mechanical keyboard.

[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to develop a keyboard axle body and a mechanical keyboard that can simplify the replacement process of the axle body and eliminate the dependence on special tools, thereby improving the user experience. Through a more convenient axle replacement mechanism, users can freely customize their own keyboard, avoid the trouble caused by the loss of tools, and thus promote the popularization and wider application of mechanical keyboards.
