The circuit board 14 is disposed on the support base 10. The supporting structure is formed by an injection-molded scissors structure 16, and the scissors structure 16 is disposed between the keycap 12 and the supporting base plate 10 for supporting the keycap 12. The elastic piece 18 is also arranged between the keycap 12 and the support base plate 10, and the injection-molded scissor structure 16 is composed of injection-molded inner ring scissor feet 8 and injection-molded outer ring scissor feet 9; as shown in fig. 2, inner ring scissor legs 8 are located inside outer scissor arms 901 of outer ring scissor legs 9, inner ring scissor legs 8 are provided with inner scissor through holes 802, and inner scissor through holes 802 enable inner ring scissor legs 8 to form inner scissor arms 801; when the key cap 12 is pressed by a user, the elastic member 18 provides an elastic restoring force to the key cap 12, so that the key cap 12 can be restored to the pre-pressed position.
