    摘要: A key structure includes a carrying body, a frame body, a keycap and at least two connecting members. The frame body is disposed on the carrying body, and the frame body is disposed with a plurality of sliding grooves. The keycap has a plurality of cap edges and correspondingly covers the top of the frame body, and the keycap is disposed with a plurality of pivoting portions. The at least two connecting members are independent from each other. The at least two connecting members are connected between the keycap and the frame body, corresponding to the two cap edges opposite to each other. Each connecting member includes a pivoting rod and a sliding rod. Each pivoting rod pivots on each pivoting portion. Each sliding rod is slidably limited in each sliding groove, and the pivoting portions are correspondingly located on the outside of the sliding grooves.

    摘要: A keyboard device includes a substrate, a keycap, a first connection member, and a first elastic arm structure. The substrate has a top surface, and the top surface has an assembling region. The keycap is disposed above the assembling region, and the keycap has a bottom surface facing the assembling region. The first connection member is connected between the keycap and the assembling region, the first connection member includes a first assembly side and a second assembly side opposite to the first assembly side, the first assembly side is pivotally connected to the bottom surface of the keycap, and the second assembly side is pivotally connected to the substrate. The first elastic arm structure includes a connection end and a free end opposite to the connection end, the connection end is connected to the first assembly side, and the free end abuts against the bottom surface of the keycap.

    摘要: A key structure includes a baseplate, a keycap and a connecting assembly. The keycap includes a plurality of first pivot portions and a plurality of sliding slots. The connecting assembly includes a first outer frame, two first inner frames, a second outer frame and a second inner frame. The first inner frames are disposed in two accommodating portions of the first outer frame. Two sides of the first outer frame are respectively connected to part of the sliding slots and the baseplate. Two sides of the first inner frame are respectively connected to the first pivot portion and the base plate. Two sides of the second outer frame are respectively connected to part of the sliding slots and the fixing side. Two sides of the second inner frame are respectively pivoted to one of the first inner frames and the base plate.

    摘要: A keyswitch structure includes a base plate, a key cap, a key base, a recovering member and a linkage mechanism having linkage members. The key base is disposed between the key cap and the base plate. The recovering member is disposed between the key cap and the base plate. The linkage members are physically separated from each other, and are respectively inclinedly disposed between the key base and the key cap, and collectively surround the recovering member. One end of each of the linkage members is pivotally connected to the key base, and the other end of each of the linkage members is slidably connected to the key cap.
