Fig. 2 is the decomposing schematic representation of a kind of keyboard structure of the present invention, and Fig. 3 be in the keyboard structure of Fig. 2, and first support and second support intersect the schematic diagram of pivot joint.Please be simultaneously with reference to Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, keyboard structure 200 comprises keycap 210, base 220 and interlinked mechanism 230.Wherein, keycap 210 is arranged on the base 220, and interlinked mechanism 230 is connected between base 220 and the keycap 210.Interlinked mechanism 230 comprises first support 232 and second support 234.First support 232 is articulated in base 220, and first support, 232 corresponding both sides have two pivot hole 232a and two guide channel 232b, and the corresponding connection with guide channel 232b of pivot hole 232a.Second support 234 is connected in keycap 210, and first support 232 and second support 234 intersect pivot joint.In addition, the corresponding both sides of second support 234 have two second driving arm 234a and two fluting 234b, wherein each second driving arm 234a has a location salient point 235, and positioning convex point 235 is sheathed on respectively among the 232a of pivot hole, so that first support 232 and second support 234 intersect pivot joint.
Please continue with reference to Fig. 2, in the present invention's keyboard structure 200, positioning convex point 235 protrudes in the relative outside of the second driving arm 234a, and fluting 234b is opened among the second driving arm 234a, and fluting 234b is along the length direction extension of the second driving arm 234a.Wherein, the zone of the second driving arm 234a between positioning convex point 235 and fluting 234b is strain portion.In addition, first support 232 for example have two first driving arm 232e, run through the first driving arm 232e pivot hole 232a, be positioned at the first driving arm 232e relative inner and be communicated with the guide channel 232b of pivot hole 232a adjacent end.
Fig. 4 is the schematic diagram of first support of Fig. 2, and Fig. 5 is loaded on the schematic diagram of keycap for second groups of holders of Fig. 2.Please be simultaneously with reference to Fig. 2, Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, in more detail, keycap 210 for example has two first draw-in grooves 212 and two first guide vane end stops 214 (as shown in Figure 5).Wherein, second support 234 has the first pivoted pole 234c, and the first pivoted pole 234c is suitable for being placed in first draw-in groove 212.In addition, first support 232 has the first sliding bar 234c, and the first sliding bar 234c can be limited its displacement by first guide vane end stop 214.In addition, base 220 for example has two second draw-in grooves 222 and two second guide vane end stops 224.Wherein, first support 232 has the first pivoted pole 232d, and wherein the first pivoted pole 232d correspondence is placed in second draw-in groove 222.In addition, second support 234 has the second sliding bar 234d, and the second sliding bar 234d is suitable for being subjected to second guide vane end stop 224 and limits its displacement.
Next, will be illustrated at the assembling of keyboard structure 200.Please be simultaneously with reference to Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, the assembling flow path of keyboard structure 200 roughly comprises the following steps: at first, and first support 232 and second support 234 are provided.Then, make the positioning convex point 235 of second support 234 move and insert among the 232a of pivot hole, first support 232 is intersected be articulated in second support 234, to form interlinked mechanism 230 along pairing guide channel 232b.It should be noted that guide channel 232b can guide the V-shaped groove (as shown in Figure 4) that positioning convex point 235 moves in order to allow the positioning convex point 235 of second support 234 be pivoted to smoothly among the pivot hole 232a of first support 232.
In addition, in the present embodiment, first support 232 is intersected be articulated in second support 234, for example be to use automatic assembling mode with the method that forms interlinked mechanism 230.That is to say that the assemble method of interlinked mechanism 230 for example is with 232 placements of first support and is fixed on the conveyer belt (not shown).Then, with mechanical arm (not shown) gripping second support 234, and the positioning convex point 235 of second support 234 is moved to insert among the 232a of pivot hole along pairing guide channel 232b.
It should be noted that at the positioning convex point 235 of second support 234 the strain portion of second support 234 is suitable for being squeezed and makes fluting 234b distortion when pairing guide channel 232b moves and insert pivot hole 232a.The distortion of fluting 234b can make second support 234 have the effect of buffering stress, is damaged because of extruding to avoid first support 232 and second support 234.Then, second support 234 passes between two the first driving arm 232e of first support 232, and the positioning convex point 235 of second support 234 is articulated among the pivot hole 232a of first support 232, and first support 232 intersects pivot joint to form interlinked mechanism 230 with second support 234.
Afterwards, provide base 220 and keycap 210, and interlinked mechanism 230 is connected between base 220 and the keycap 210.In the present embodiment, the method that interlinked mechanism 230 is connected between base 220 and the keycap 210 for example is a manual type.That is to say, make interlinked mechanism 230 be connected in base 220 and keycap 210 is to be placed in second draw-in groove 222 of base 220 by the second pivoted pole 234d of assembler with second support 234, second support 234 is articulated on the base 220.Then, assembler is buckled in keycap 210 on first support 232 again.More specifically, the first sliding bar 234c of second support 234 can be placed in first draw-in groove 212 of keycap 210, and the first pivoted pole 232c of first support 232 is placed in first guide vane end stop 214 of keycap 210.In addition, second guide vane end stop 224 of base 220 is that to avoid the user when using keyboard, the height of each keyboard is all inequality in order to the moving of the second pivoted pole 234d that limits second support 234.
In sum, the present invention's keyboard structure and assemble method thereof have following advantage at least:
One, first support has guide channel, and guide channel is positioned to the pivot hole in order to the positioning convex point of guiding second support, therefore helps using automatic assembling mode so that first support and second support intersect pivot joint formation interlinked mechanism.
Two, second support have strain portion and in order to the buffering stress fluting, therefore when the present invention's keyboard structure being used in automatic assemble method, can avoid because of stress that when assembling extruding produces causes first support or second support destroyed, with the raising packaging qualification rate.
That three, uses that the automation assemble method can reduce human resources expends, reduces cost of human resources and raising production capacity.
Though the present invention discloses as above with preferred embodiment; right its is not in order to limit the present invention; any person of ordinary skill in the field; without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention; when can doing a little change and improvement, so the present invention's protection range is as the criterion when looking the claim person of defining.
