The schematic cross-sectional view of pressing state is transformed by release conditions along the press-key structure 2A of A-A section views.Fig. 6 A are please referred to, it is real one
It applies in example, when keycap 10 is not pressed, the first end 251 of adsorbable part 25 is attracting with magnetic element 26 and is fixed on the first suction
On attached position P1, so that keycap 10 and pin connected assembly 20 are in a release conditions.Then, Fig. 6 B are please referred to, when keycap 10 by by
When pressure, the first end 251 of adsorbable part 25 is driven and mutually separate with magnetic element 26, so that keycap 10 is moved by non-pressing position
It moves to pressing position.Later, when keycap 10 is released, the first end 251 and magnetic element 26 of adsorbable part 25 are attracting again,
So that keycap 10 and pin connected assembly 20 are turned again to by attracting magnetic force on non-pressing position.Therefore, when user pressing or
Press-key structure 2A is discharged, can be moved up and down by acting between pressing position and non-pressing position for magnetic force.
The press-key structure 2A ' that Fig. 5 B are painted Fig. 4 is in the schematic diagram of storing state, Fig. 7 A and Fig. 7 B be painted in Fig. 5 B along
The press-key structure 2A ' of A-A section views is transformed into the schematic cross-sectional view of storing state by release conditions.Fig. 5 B are please referred to, are implemented one
In example, bottom plate 50 is, for example, a sliding panel, can be relative to support plate 40 along one first glide direction S1 slidings, so that button
Structure 2A ' is in storing state.Or support plate 40 is, for example, a sliding panel, can be slided along one second relative to bottom plate 50
Dynamic direction S2 slidings, so that press-key structure 2A ' is in storing state.Please refer to Fig. 7 A, in one embodiment, when keycap 10 not by
(it is in release conditions) when pressing, the first end 251 of adsorbable part 25 is attracting with magnetic element 26, so that keycap 10 and pivot
Connected components 20 are fixed on by attracting magnetic force on a non-pressing position.Then, Fig. 7 B are please referred to, in one embodiment, work as bottom
Plate 50 relative to support plate 40 along one first glide direction S1 sliding when, the second end 252 of adsorbable part 25 be moved to
The magnetic element 26 of second absorption position P2 is attracting so that keycap 10 and pin connected assembly 20 by attracting magnetic force by not pressing position
It sets and (is in release conditions) and be moved to a storage location (being in storing state).When keycap 10 is moved to storage location,
The required accommodating spaces of press-key structure 2A ' are opposite to be reduced, and the whole height of press-key structure 2A ' is made to decline.
In one embodiment, it when bottom plate 50 is reversely slided along the second glide direction S2 relative to support plate 40, can inhale
The first end 251 of attachment 25 will be attracting again with the magnetic element 26 that is moved to the first absorption position P1, so that keycap 10 and pivot
Connected components 20 are turned again to by attracting magnetic force on non-pressing position.Therefore, press-key structure 2A ' can be by the sliding of bottom plate 50
Or support plate 40 sliding and change to non-pressing position or storage location.Either bottom plate 50 is slided relative to support plate 40,
Or support plate 40 is slided relative to bottom plate 50, can reach identical button storage effect, the present invention does not limit this.
Fig. 6 B and Fig. 7 B are please referred to, it is detailed herein about the thin portion content of stopper section 225.In one embodiment, stopper section
225 be, for example, a salient point with predetermined altitude.In fig. 6b, when keycap 10, which is pressed, is in pressing state, magnetic member
The position of part 26 is not moved, and not in the lower section of stopper section 225, and therefore, the first Actuator Division 214 and the second Actuator Division 224 can
It is successfully contacted with touching portion 32 below, to generate a pressing signal.In figure 7b, when keycap 10 is in storing state
When, magnetic element 26 is moved to the lower section of stopper section 225, the stopper section 225 moved down and is moved to the second absorption position P2
26 phase of magnetic element touch so that keycap 10 by backstop on a predetermined altitude, and can not reach pressing position (i.e. first make
Dynamic 214 or second Actuator Division 224 of portion can not be contacted with touching portion 32 below).Since keycap 10 is in the height of stop dog position
The slightly above height of pressing position, therefore the press-key structure 2A ' of the present embodiment will not generate a pressing signal under storing state
Or the situation malfunctioned.
Fig. 8 is please referred to, the element exploded view of the press-key structure 2B according to another embodiment of the present invention is painted.Press-key structure
2B includes a keycap 10, a pin connected assembly 20 ', an elastic component 28, a film circuit board 30 and a support plate 40.Elastic component 28
To replace the combination of above-mentioned adsorbable part 25 and magnetic element 26.Elastic component 28 is arranged in the lower section of keycap 10, and is located at
Between first articulated part 21 and the second articulated part 22.This elastic component 28 corresponds to keycap 10 and is pressed and generates deformation, and in keycap
10 generate a back stretch when being released.Therefore, keycap 10 and pin connected assembly 20 ' can be by the elastic force of elastic component 28 in not pressing
It moves up and down between position and pressing position.In addition, elastic component 28 is set on film circuit board 30, and its position corresponds to and is located at
On one switch element 33.When elastic component 28 is depressed, the switch element 33 being disposed below is triggered and generates a pressing
Signal.Therefore, be not required to be arranged on the pin connected assembly 20 ' of the present embodiment the first above-mentioned Actuator Division 214, the second Actuator Division 224 and
Stopper section 225, and be also not required to that corresponding two touching portion 32 is arranged on film circuit board 30.
