摘要: A keyswitch structure includes a base plate, a keycap, and a support mechanism. The support mechanism supports the keycap above the base plate. An outer support of the support mechanism includes a reinforcing body and a connecting structure fixed on the reinforcing body. The outer support is connected to the base plate and the keycap through the connecting structure. In an embodiment, the reinforcing body has two openings. Two inner supports of the support mechanism are pivotally connected to the connecting structure and are located in the two openings, respectively. In another embodiment, the reinforcing body as a whole extends along a plane. The reinforcing body has a bent fringe, which is inserted into the connecting structure and is not perpendicular to the plane.

摘要: A keyswitch structure includes a base plate, a keycap, and a keycap support mechanism that supports the keycap above the base plate in a vertical direction. The keycap and the keycap support mechanism extend lengthwise in a lengthwise direction. The keycap support mechanism includes an outer support and an inner support pivotally connected to each other. The outer support surrounds the inner support. The inner support includes a support body and a reinforcement part. The reinforcement part is embedded in the support body. The reinforcement part is greater in elastic modulus than the support body. The inner support defines a side connection section on both sides of the inner support in the lengthwise direction. Each side connection section includes at least one base plate connecting portion and at least one keycap connecting portion. The reinforcement part extends into the two side connection sections.

摘要: A multi-size keyswitch structure includes a base plate, a multi-size keycap, and a keycap support mechanism that supports the multi-size keycap above the base plate in a vertical direction. The multi-size keycap and the keycap support mechanism extend lengthwise in a lengthwise direction. The keycap support mechanism includes an outer support and an inner support pivotally connected to each other. The outer support surrounds the inner support. The inner support includes a support body and a reinforcement part. The reinforcement part is embedded in the support body. The reinforcement part is greater in elastic modulus than the support body. The inner support defines a side connection section on both sides of the inner support in the lengthwise direction. Each side connection section includes at least one base plate connecting portion and at least one keycap connecting portion. The reinforcement part extends into the two side connection sections.
