就目前的筆記型電腦的使用習慣而言，鍵盤為不可或缺的輸入設備之一，用以輸入文字、符號或數字。近來，由於筆記型電腦薄型化的趨勢，應用於筆記型電腦上的鍵盤亦隨之有薄型化之需求。 In terms of the current usage habits of notebook computers, the keyboard is one of the indispensable input devices for entering text, symbols or numbers. Recently, due to the trend of thinning notebook computers, the keyboards applied to notebook computers have also become thinner.
習知的按鍵內常設置有彈性元件，例如橡膠墊圈(Rubber Dome)等，以作為按鍵使用時，鍵帽復位的彈力來源。然而，習知的彈性元件具有特定之高度，故當筆記型電腦之上蓋與下殼體收合時，為避免設置於下殼體上之鍵帽傷及設置於上蓋之顯示螢幕，上蓋與下殼體之間常保留有一餘隙。換言之，習知的按鍵中因設置有彈性元件，將限制筆記型電腦的外觀尺寸設計，而不利於筆記型電腦之薄型化趨勢。 Conventional keys are often provided with elastic elements, such as rubber washers (Rubber Dome), etc., as a source of spring force for the keycap reset when used as a button. However, the conventional elastic member has a specific height, so when the upper cover of the notebook computer is folded with the lower casing, in order to avoid the keycap provided on the lower casing and the display screen disposed on the upper cover, the upper cover and the lower cover A clearance is often left between the housings. In other words, the conventional buttons are provided with elastic components, which will limit the appearance of the notebook computer, which is not conducive to the thinning trend of the notebook computer.

As shown in FIG. 1, the keyboard 1 includes a first bottom plate 3, a second bottom plate 5, and a plurality of buttons 7. It should be noted that the keyboard 1 is preferably applied to a portable electronic device (for example, a notebook computer) generally having an opening and closing mechanism composed of an upper cover and a lower cover. In a practical application, the first bottom plate 3 or the second bottom plate 5 can be relatively slid with the upper cover of the portable electronic device being opened and closed with respect to the lower casing by the linkage mechanism. As for the structural design and working principle of the interlocking mechanism, it is common in the prior art, and therefore will not be described herein.
為求簡化說明，以下僅針對使第一底板3以及第二底板5與單一按鍵7之間的結構設計進行描述，第一底板3以及第二底板5與其他按鍵7之間的結構設計可以此類推。請參閱第2圖以及第3圖，第2圖為第1圖之按鍵7沿X-X線之剖面示意圖，第3圖為第2圖之翹翹板構件9之上視圖。如第2圖以及第3圖所示，按鍵7係設置於第一底板3上且包含翹翹板構件9、鍵帽11、導磁性材料塊13，以及升降支撐裝置15，在此實施例中，第二底板5係以與第一底板3可相對滑動之方式設置於第一底板3上且形成有突出彎折臂17，導磁性材料塊13係設置在第一底板3上，升降支撐裝置15係連接於鍵帽11與第一底板3之間，以使鍵帽11可相對第一底板3上下移動。翹翹板構件9具有樞接臂部19、導磁性材料臂部21，以及撐抵部23，樞接臂部19係樞接於鍵帽11，撐抵部23係可滑動地設置於導磁性材料塊13上，導磁性材料臂部21抵接於突出彎折臂17且可分離地吸附於導磁性材料塊13上，其中導磁性材料塊13係可較佳地為磁鐵，而導磁性材料臂部21則是可為磁鐵或磁性材料(例如，鐵或其它金屬)，但不受此限，在另一實施例中， 導磁性材料塊13亦可改為磁性材料(例如，鐵或其它金屬)，而導磁性材料臂部21則是可為磁鐵。另外，在實際應用中，導磁性材料臂部21對應突出彎折臂17之位置上可延伸形成有耳部22以用來抵接於突出彎折臂17，從而使得導磁性材料臂部21與突出彎折臂17之抵接可更加地穩固。 For the sake of simplification of the description, only the structural design between the first bottom plate 3 and the second bottom plate 5 and the single button 7 will be described below, and the structural design between the first bottom plate 3 and the second bottom plate 5 and the other keys 7 may be analogy. Please refer to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, FIG. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the button 7 of FIG. 1 along the line X-X, and FIG. 3 is a top view of the seesaw member 9 of FIG. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the button 7 is disposed on the first bottom plate 3 and includes a seesaw member 9, a keycap 11, a magnetic material block 13, and a lifting support device 15, in this embodiment. The second bottom plate 5 is disposed on the first bottom plate 3 so as to be slidable relative to the first bottom plate 3, and is formed with a protruding bending arm 17, and the magnetic conductive material block 13 is disposed on the first bottom plate 3, and the lifting support device The 15 series is connected between the keycap 11 and the first bottom plate 3 to move the keycap 11 up and down relative to the first bottom plate 3. The seesaw member 9 has a pivoting arm portion 19, a magnetically conductive material arm portion 21, and abutting portion 23, the pivoting arm portion 19 is pivotally connected to the keycap 11, and the abutting portion 23 is slidably disposed on the magnetically conductive portion On the material block 13, the magnetic conductive material arm portion 21 abuts against the protruding bending arm 17 and is detachably adsorbed on the magnetic conductive material block 13, wherein the magnetic conductive material block 13 is preferably a magnet, and the magnetic conductive material The arm portion 21 may be a magnet or a magnetic material (for example, iron or other metal), but is not limited thereto. In another embodiment, The magnetically conductive material block 13 can also be changed to a magnetic material (for example, iron or other metal), and the magnetic conductive material arm portion 21 can be a magnet. In addition, in practical applications, the position of the magnetic conductive material arm portion 21 corresponding to the protruding bending arm 17 may be extended to form an ear portion 22 for abutting against the protruding bending arm 17, so that the magnetic conductive material arm portion 21 and The abutment of the protruding bending arm 17 can be more stable.
至於在按鍵7之觸發設計方面，在此實施例中，如第2圖所示，鍵盤1可另包含電路板25，電路板25係設置於第一底板3上，電路板25係較佳地為薄膜電路板(membrane)且具有開關27，例如薄膜開關(membrane switch)或其它觸發性開關。如此一來，當鍵帽11被按壓時，鍵帽11可觸發開關27而觸發按鍵訊號，以執行對應的輸入功能。 As for the trigger design of the button 7, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the keyboard 1 may further include a circuit board 25, and the circuit board 25 is disposed on the first bottom board 3, and the circuit board 25 is preferably It is a thin film circuit and has a switch 27, such as a membrane switch or other trigger switch. In this way, when the keycap 11 is pressed, the keycap 11 can trigger the switch 27 to trigger the button signal to perform the corresponding input function.
以下係針對升降支撐裝置15搭配鍵帽11與第一底板3之結構設計進行詳細說明。如第2圖所示，鍵帽11具有第一滑槽29以及第一卡槽31，且第一底板3具有第二滑槽33以及第二卡槽35。升降支撐裝置15包含第一支撐件37以及第二支撐件39，其中第二支撐件39與第一支撐件37樞接。第一支撐件37具有第一滑動部41以及第一樞接部43。於組裝第一支撐件37時，第一滑動部41可滑動地設置於第一滑槽29中，且第一樞接部43可轉動地樞接於第二卡槽35中。第二支撐件39具有第二滑動部45以及第二樞接部47。於組裝第二支撐件39時，第二滑動部45可滑動地設置於第二滑槽33中，且第二樞接部47可轉動地樞接於第一卡槽31中。如此一來，透過上述之結構連接設計，鍵帽11係可藉由升降支撐裝置15而相對於第一底板3做上下運動。需注意的是，升降支撐裝置15不限制於第2圖之剪刀(scissors)結構，也可以是傳統火山口結構或其他類似結構(其相關設計係常見於先前技術中，故不再贅述)，換句話說，在本發明中，鍵帽11相對第一底板3上下移動之設計係可改採用其他具有相同升降支撐功效之結構。 The following is a detailed description of the structural design of the lifting and lowering support device 15 with the keycap 11 and the first bottom plate 3. As shown in FIG. 2, the keycap 11 has a first sliding groove 29 and a first locking groove 31, and the first bottom plate 3 has a second sliding groove 33 and a second locking groove 35. The lifting support device 15 includes a first support member 37 and a second support member 39, wherein the second support member 39 is pivotally connected to the first support member 37. The first support member 37 has a first sliding portion 41 and a first pivoting portion 43. The first sliding portion 41 is slidably disposed in the first sliding slot 29 , and the first pivoting portion 43 is rotatably pivoted in the second locking slot 35 . The second support member 39 has a second sliding portion 45 and a second pivot portion 47. When the second supporting member 39 is assembled, the second sliding portion 45 is slidably disposed in the second sliding slot 33 , and the second pivoting portion 47 is rotatably pivoted in the first locking slot 31 . In this way, through the structural connection design described above, the keycap 11 can be moved up and down relative to the first bottom plate 3 by the lifting support device 15. It should be noted that the lifting support device 15 is not limited to the scissors structure of FIG. 2, and may also be a conventional crater structure or the like (the related design is common in the prior art, and therefore will not be described again). In other words, in the present invention, the design of the keycap 11 moving up and down relative to the first bottom plate 3 can be changed to other structures having the same lifting support effect.
透過上述配置，如第2圖以及第4圖所示，第4圖為第2圖之按鍵7於第二底板5相對第一底板3滑動至收合位置時之剖面示意圖，當第二底板5相對第一底板3從如第2圖所示之釋放位置滑動至如第4圖所示之收合位置時，透過上述突出彎折臂17抵接於導磁性材料臂部21、樞接臂部19樞接於鍵帽11，以及撐抵部23可滑動地設置於導磁性材料塊13上之設計，突出彎折臂17可隨著第二底板5之滑動而經由與其抵接之導磁性材料臂部21驅動撐抵部23在導磁性材料塊13上滑動，以使得樞接臂部19相對於鍵帽11樞轉而拉動鍵帽11向下移動，且使得導磁性材料臂部21相對於導磁性材料塊13翹起而與導磁性材料塊13分離。如此一來，當鍵盤1應用於一般具有由上蓋與下殼體組成之開合機構之可攜式電子裝置上(例如筆記型電腦)時，即可藉由連動機構使第二底板5隨可攜式電子裝置之上蓋相對下殼體閉合而相對第一底板3滑動，使得鍵帽11往如第4圖所示之位置向下移動，藉以達到鍵帽11可隨著可攜式電子裝置之閉合而降低其高度之功效，換句話說，當第二底板5相對第一底板3移動至如第4圖所示之收合位置，鍵盤1係處於收合狀態。 Through the above configuration, as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 4, FIG. 4 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the button 7 of FIG. 2 when the second bottom plate 5 is slid to the folded position with respect to the first bottom plate 5, when the second bottom plate 5 is When the first bottom plate 3 is slid from the release position shown in FIG. 2 to the retracted position as shown in FIG. 4, the protruding bending arm 17 is in contact with the magnetic conductive material arm portion 21 and the pivot arm portion. 19 is pivotally connected to the keycap 11 and the design of the abutting portion 23 is slidably disposed on the magnetic material block 13, and the protruding bending arm 17 can pass through the magnetically permeable material abutting the second bottom plate 5 The arm portion 21 drives the abutting portion 23 to slide on the magnetic conductive material block 13 such that the pivoting arm portion 19 pivots relative to the keycap 11 to pull the keycap 11 downward, and the magnetically conductive material arm portion 21 is opposed to The magnetic conductive material block 13 is lifted up to be separated from the magnetic conductive material block 13. In this way, when the keyboard 1 is applied to a portable electronic device (such as a notebook computer) generally having an opening and closing mechanism composed of an upper cover and a lower casing, the second bottom plate 5 can be connected by the linkage mechanism. The upper cover of the portable electronic device is closed relative to the lower casing and slides relative to the first bottom plate 3, so that the keycap 11 is moved downward as shown in FIG. 4, so that the keycap 11 can be carried out along with the portable electronic device. The effect of closing and lowering its height, in other words, when the second bottom plate 5 is moved relative to the first bottom plate 3 to the folded position as shown in Fig. 4, the keyboard 1 is in a collapsed state.
另一方面，當第二底板5相對第一底板3從如第4圖所示之收合位置滑動至如第2圖所示之釋放位置時，相對於導磁性材料塊13翹起之導磁性材料臂部21與導磁性材料塊13之間所產生之磁吸力就會吸引導磁性材料臂部21吸附於導磁性材料塊13，以驅動撐抵部23在導磁性材料塊13上滑動，以使得樞接臂部19相對於鍵帽11樞轉而推動鍵帽11向上移動。如此一來，當鍵盤1應用於一般具有由上蓋與下殼體組成之開合機構之可攜式電子裝置上(例如筆記型電腦)時，即可藉由連動機構使第二底板5隨可攜式電子裝置之上蓋相對下殼體展開而相對第一底板3滑動，使得鍵帽11往如第2圖所示之位置向上移動，藉以達到鍵帽11可隨著可攜式電子裝置之展開而回復至原來高度以供使用者按壓之功效，換句話說，當第二底板5相對第一底板3 移動至如第2圖所示之釋放位置，鍵盤1係處於可操作狀態。 On the other hand, when the second bottom plate 5 is slid relative to the first bottom plate 3 from the folded position as shown in FIG. 4 to the release position as shown in FIG. 2, the magnetic permeability is lifted relative to the magnetic conductive material block 13. The magnetic attraction generated between the material arm portion 21 and the magnetic conductive material block 13 attracts the magnetic material arm portion 21 to be attracted to the magnetic conductive material block 13 to drive the abutting portion 23 to slide on the magnetic conductive material block 13 to The pivoting arm portion 19 is pivoted relative to the keycap 11 to push the keycap 11 upward. In this way, when the keyboard 1 is applied to a portable electronic device (such as a notebook computer) generally having an opening and closing mechanism composed of an upper cover and a lower casing, the second bottom plate 5 can be connected by the linkage mechanism. The upper cover of the portable electronic device is unfolded relative to the lower casing and slid relative to the first bottom plate 3, so that the keycap 11 is moved upward as shown in FIG. 2, so that the keycap 11 can be deployed along with the portable electronic device. And returning to the original height for the user to press the effect, in other words, when the second bottom plate 5 is opposite to the first bottom plate 3 Moving to the release position as shown in Fig. 2, the keyboard 1 is in an operable state.
需說明的是，於鍵帽11往如第2圖所示之位置與如第4圖所示之位置上下移動的過程中，由於鍵帽11連接於升降支撐裝置15，故升降支撐裝置15限制鍵帽11僅能相對第一底板3作上下直線運動。如此一來，鍵帽11即可更穩定地相對第一底板3上下移動。 It should be noted that, in the process of moving the keycap 11 up and down as shown in FIG. 2 and the position shown in FIG. 4, since the keycap 11 is connected to the lifting support device 15, the lifting support device 15 is limited. The keycap 11 can only move up and down linearly with respect to the first bottom plate 3. As a result, the keycap 11 can move up and down relative to the first bottom plate 3 more stably.
值得一提的是，第二底板5與第一底板3之間的相對滑動係可不限於上述實施例所提及之第二底板5可在第一底板3上滑動的設計，其亦可改採用第一底板3可在第二底板5滑動之設計，也就是說，在另一實施例中，第一底板3可形成有突出彎折臂17，導磁性材料塊13係設置在第二底板5上，升降支撐裝置15係連接於鍵帽11與第二底板5之間，以使鍵帽11可相對第二底板5上下移動，從而達到鍵帽11可隨著第一底板3在第二底板5上之滑動而上下移動之目的，至於其他相關描述，其係可參照上述實施例類推，於此不再贅述。 It is worth mentioning that the relative sliding between the second bottom plate 5 and the first bottom plate 3 is not limited to the design that the second bottom plate 5 mentioned in the above embodiment can slide on the first bottom plate 3, and it can also be modified. The first bottom plate 3 can be designed to slide on the second bottom plate 5, that is, in another embodiment, the first bottom plate 3 can be formed with a protruding bending arm 17, and the magnetic conductive material block 13 is disposed on the second bottom plate 5. The lifting support device 15 is connected between the keycap 11 and the second bottom plate 5 so that the key cap 11 can move up and down relative to the second bottom plate 5, so that the key cap 11 can be along with the first bottom plate 3 on the second bottom plate. 5, the purpose of sliding up and down, as well as other related descriptions, which can be referred to the analogy of the above embodiments, and will not be described herein.
除此之外，第一底板以及第二底板與按鍵之間的連動設計係可不限於上述實施例，其亦可改採用導磁性材料塊設置於鍵帽上之設計，舉例來說，請參閱第5圖以及第6圖，第5圖為根據本發明之另一實施例所提出之鍵盤1’之按鍵7’之剖面示意圖，第6圖為第5圖之按鍵7’於第二底板5相對第一底板3滑動至收合位置時之剖面示意圖，此實施例中所述的元件與上述實施例中所述的元件編號相同者，表示其具有相似的功能或結構，於此不再贅述。如第5圖以及第6圖所示，鍵盤1’包含第一底板3、第二底板5，以及複數個按鍵7’(於第5圖以及第6圖中僅以一個簡示之)，按鍵7’係設置於第一底板3上且包含翹翹板構件9’、鍵帽11、導磁性材料塊13’，以及升降支撐裝置15，在此實施例中，第二底板5係以與第一底板3可相對滑動之方式 設置於第一底板3上且形成有突出彎折臂17，導磁性材料塊13’係設置在鍵帽11上。翹翹板構件9’具有導磁性材料臂部21、支點部49，以及抵接臂部51，支點部49樞接於鍵帽11，抵接臂部51抵接於突出彎折臂17，導磁性材料臂部21係可分離地吸附於導磁性材料塊13’上。 In addition, the interlocking design between the first bottom plate and the second bottom plate and the button may not be limited to the above embodiment, and the design of the magnetic conductive material block on the key cap may also be adopted. For example, please refer to 5 and FIG. 6, FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of a button 7' of a keyboard 1' according to another embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 6 is a button 7' of FIG. 5 opposite to the second substrate 5. The cross-sectional view of the first bottom plate 3 when it is slid to the retracted position. The components described in this embodiment are the same as those described in the above embodiments, and have similar functions or structures, and will not be described again. As shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, the keyboard 1' includes a first bottom plate 3, a second bottom plate 5, and a plurality of buttons 7' (only one of which is shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6). 7' is disposed on the first bottom plate 3 and includes a seesaw member 9', a keycap 11, a magnetic material block 13', and a lifting support device 15, and in this embodiment, the second bottom plate 5 is a way in which the bottom plate 3 can slide relative to each other It is disposed on the first bottom plate 3 and is formed with a protruding bending arm 17 which is disposed on the keycap 11. The seesaw member 9 ′ has a magnetic conductive material arm portion 21 , a fulcrum portion 49 , and an abutting arm portion 51 . The fulcrum portion 49 is pivotally connected to the key cap 11 , and the abutting arm portion 51 abuts against the protruding bending arm 17 . The magnetic material arm portion 21 is detachably adsorbed on the magnetic conductive material block 13'.
在實際應用中，按鍵7’可採用凸點觸發開關之設計，舉例來說，請參閱第7圖以及第8圖，第7圖為第5圖之鍵盤1’之***示意圖，第8圖為第5圖之鍵帽11被按壓之剖面示意圖，其中為了清楚顯示按鍵7’之結構設計，於第7圖中係省略升降支撐裝置15之繪示。由第7圖以及第8圖可知，翹翹板構件9’可具有凸點53，藉此，當鍵帽11被按壓至如第8圖所示之位置時，翹翹板構件9’之凸點53可觸發開關27而觸發按鍵訊號，以執行對應的輸入功能。需注意的是，上述凸點觸發設計係可應用在第一實施例中，其相關描述係可參照第8圖類推，於此不再贅述。 In practical applications, the button 7' can be designed with a bump trigger switch. For example, please refer to FIG. 7 and FIG. 8. FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram of the explosion of the keyboard 1' of FIG. 5, and FIG. The cross-sectional view of the keycap 11 of Fig. 5 is pressed. In order to clearly show the structural design of the button 7', the drawing of the lifting support device 15 is omitted in Fig. 7. As can be seen from FIGS. 7 and 8, the seesaw member 9' may have a bump 53 whereby the warp member 9' is convex when the keycap 11 is pressed to the position as shown in FIG. Point 53 can trigger switch 27 to trigger a button signal to perform a corresponding input function. It should be noted that the above-mentioned bump triggering design can be applied to the first embodiment, and the related description can be analogized with reference to FIG. 8 , and details are not described herein again.
透過上述配置，如第5圖以及第6圖所示，當第二底板5相對第一底板3從如第5圖所示之釋放位置滑動至如第6圖所示之收合位置時，透過上述抵接臂部51抵接於突出彎折臂17、支點部49樞接於鍵帽11，以及導磁性材料臂部21可分離地吸附於導磁性材料塊13’上之設計，突出彎折臂17可隨著第二底板5之滑動而推動與其抵接之抵接臂部51從如第5圖所示之釋放位置移動至如第6圖所示之收合位置，以使得支點部49相對鍵帽11樞轉而拉動鍵帽11向下移動，且使得導磁性材料臂部21相對於導磁性材料塊13’翹起而與導磁性材料塊13’分離。如此一來，當鍵盤1’應用於一般具有由上蓋與下殼體組成之開合機構之可攜式電子裝置上(例如筆記型電腦)時，即可藉由連動機構使第二底板5隨可攜式電子裝置之上蓋相對下殼體閉合而相對第一底板3滑動，使得鍵帽11往如第6圖所示之位置向下移動，藉以達到鍵帽11可隨著可攜式電子裝置之閉合而降低其高度之功效，換句話說，當第二底板 5相對第一底板3移動至如第6圖所示之收合位置，鍵盤1’係處於收合狀態。 Through the above configuration, as shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, when the second bottom plate 5 is slid from the release position as shown in FIG. 5 to the folded position as shown in FIG. 6 with respect to the first bottom plate 3, The abutting arm portion 51 abuts against the protruding bending arm 17, the fulcrum portion 49 is pivotally connected to the keycap 11, and the magnetically conductive material arm portion 21 is detachably adsorbed on the magnetic conductive material block 13'. The arm 17 can be moved by the sliding movement of the second bottom plate 5 to abut against the abutting arm portion 51 from the release position as shown in FIG. 5 to the folding position as shown in FIG. 6, so that the fulcrum portion 49 The keycap 11 is pivoted to pull the keycap 11 downward, and the magnetically conductive material arm 21 is lifted relative to the magnetically conductive material block 13' to be separated from the magnetically conductive material block 13'. In this way, when the keyboard 1' is applied to a portable electronic device (such as a notebook computer) generally having an opening and closing mechanism composed of an upper cover and a lower casing, the second bottom plate 5 can be caused by the linkage mechanism. The upper cover of the portable electronic device is closed relative to the lower casing and slides relative to the first bottom plate 3, so that the keycap 11 is moved downward as shown in FIG. 6, so that the keycap 11 can be carried out along with the portable electronic device. The effect of closing and lowering its height, in other words, when the second bottom plate 5 moves relative to the first bottom plate 3 to the folded position as shown in Fig. 6, and the keyboard 1' is in the collapsed state.
另一方面，當第二底板5相對第一底板3從如第6圖所示之收合位置滑動至如第5圖所示之釋放位置時，相對於導磁性材料塊13’翹起之導磁性材料臂部21與導磁性材料塊13’之間所產生之磁吸力就會吸引導磁性材料臂部21吸附於導磁性材料塊13’，以驅動支點部49相對於鍵帽11樞轉，以使得支點部49推動鍵帽11向上移動。如此一來，當鍵盤1’應用於一般具有由上蓋與下殼體組成之開合機構之可攜式電子裝置上(例如筆記型電腦)時，即可藉由連動機構使第二底板5隨可攜式電子裝置之上蓋相對下殼體展開而相對第一底板3滑動，使得鍵帽11往如第5圖所示之位置向上移動，藉以達到鍵帽11可隨著可攜式電子裝置之展開而回復至原來高度以供使用者按壓之功效，換句話說，當第二底板5相對第一底板3移動至如第5圖所示之釋放位置，鍵盤1’係處於可操作狀態。 On the other hand, when the second bottom plate 5 is slid relative to the first bottom plate 3 from the folded position as shown in FIG. 6 to the release position as shown in FIG. 5, the guide is lifted relative to the magnetic conductive material block 13'. The magnetic attraction generated between the magnetic material arm portion 21 and the magnetic conductive material block 13' attracts the magnetic material arm portion 21 to be attracted to the magnetic conductive material block 13' to drive the fulcrum portion 49 to pivot relative to the keycap 11, The fulcrum portion 49 is caused to push the keycap 11 upward. In this way, when the keyboard 1' is applied to a portable electronic device (such as a notebook computer) generally having an opening and closing mechanism composed of an upper cover and a lower casing, the second bottom plate 5 can be caused by the linkage mechanism. The upper cover of the portable electronic device is unfolded relative to the lower casing and slid relative to the first bottom plate 3, so that the keycap 11 is moved upward as shown in FIG. 5, so that the keycap 11 can be carried out along with the portable electronic device. Expanding and returning to the original height for the user to press, in other words, when the second bottom plate 5 is moved relative to the first bottom plate 3 to the release position as shown in Fig. 5, the keyboard 1' is in an operable state.
相較於先前技術，本發明係利用翹翹板構件抵接底板上之突出彎折臂以及可分離地吸附於導磁性材料塊上或相對翹起的設計，以使得鍵帽可隨著底板之間的滑動而上下移動，進而達到調整鍵帽高度之功效，如此一來，鍵盤即可在收合時處於鍵帽高度下降的狀態以進一步地縮減鍵盤之整體高度，從而有利於可攜式電子裝置之薄型化設計並且有效地解決先前技術所提到的鍵帽傷及顯示螢幕的問題。 Compared with the prior art, the invention utilizes the seesaw member to abut the protruding bending arm on the bottom plate and the design which is detachably adsorbed on the magnetic conductive material block or relatively tilted, so that the key cap can follow the bottom plate Between the sliding and moving up and down, to achieve the effect of adjusting the height of the keycap, so that the keyboard can be lowered in the state of the height of the keycap during folding to further reduce the overall height of the keyboard, thereby facilitating the portable electronic The device is thinned and effectively addresses the problems of keycap injuries and display screens mentioned in the prior art.
