the cantilever end of the reset spring corresponds to the switch position of the key set with reference to fig. 9 to 17.
When the key cap 12 is not pressed, the magnetic attraction force generated by the magnetic piece 6 along the first direction attracts the magnetic attraction plate 706, the pulling part 703 of the pulling piece 7 is connected with the lower plate surface of the outer shear extension plate 902, and the shear leg structure 16 is supported; the key cap 12 is maintained in the non-depressed position;
When the keycap 12 is pressed by an external force, the outer ring scissor feet 9 push the pulling part 703 of the pulling member 7 to move, the pulling member 7 rotates, and when the second magnetic area on the magnetic adsorption plate 706 on the pulling member 7 is far away from the magnetic member 6, the keycap 12 moves to a pressing position along a third direction from an unpressed position along with the supporting structure; at this time, the magnetic member 6 is located in the magnetic yielding space 704, and the magnetic pulling arm plate 705 is located in the support plate through hole 10b on the support base plate 10.
When the external force is released, the magnetic attraction force makes the second magnetic area on the pulling member 7 close to the first magnetic area, so that the keycap 12 moves from the pressed position to the non-pressed position along with the supporting structure.
The key cap is arranged on the supporting bottom plate, and the first magnetic area is arranged on the key cap;

the pulling connecting part of the pulling piece is connected with the supporting bottom plate, and one end of the pulling piece is connected with the supporting structure and the second magnetic area positioned on the pulling piece corresponds to the first magnetic area in position; the first magnetic region attracts the second magnetic region by magnetic attraction generated in the first direction. The greatest advantage of this scheme is
1. The magnetic attraction force generated by the first magnetic area along the first direction enables the key to select a magnetic piece 6 with very small volume;
2. Because the magnetic attraction and reset spring piece are combined, the key cap of the key has good hand feeling when being pressed.

The greatest advantage of this solution is that when the magnetic attraction force decreases to 8g due to the increasing distance between the two magnetic elements when the key cap 12 is pressed at a certain position, the first cantilever spring 708a starts to contact one switch, the key cap 12 continues to move downwards, the elastic force generated by the first cantilever spring 708a gradually increases, the key cap 12 continues to move downwards, the second cantilever spring 708b starts to contact the other switch (circuit is turned on), and the elastic force generated by the second cantilever spring 708b gradually increases to the pressing position.
The best of the scheme is that the hand feeling of the key is best, the touch feeling of the hand is reduced from 55 g-60 g at the unpressed position to 8g (when the key cap 12 descends by 2/3 stroke), and finally the 1/3 stroke is ascended from 8g to 100g, so that the collapsing hand feeling is realized, meanwhile, the impact sound generated by the reset spring and the switch is similar to that of a mechanical keyboard of a desktop computer, the hand feeling of the key of the conventional notebook keyboard is reduced from 55 g-60 g to 25 g-30 g, and finally the hand feeling of the key is ascended from 25 g-30 g to 100g.
