Concrete implementation content
First embodiment
See also Fig. 5, press-key structure 100 of the present invention mainly includes a keycap 110, an elastic body 120, a film assembly 130, a substrate 140 and a bindiny mechanism 145.Elastic body 120 is connected in keycap 110, and is arranged under the keycap 110.Film assembly 130 is arranged under the elastic body 120.Substrate 140 is arranged under the film assembly 130.One end of bindiny mechanism 145 is connected in substrate 140, and the other end of bindiny mechanism 145 is connected in keycap 110.Keycap 110 is connected on the substrate 140 in mode moving up and down by bindiny mechanism 145.
Therefore, when having foreign matters such as the dust or the grains of sand on the substrate 140, this each foreign matter just can be discharged by through hole.So in the time of on film assembly 130 is arranged at substrate 140, second film 160 just can be because of have foreign matter and projection on substrate 140, and then more can under press-key structure 100 intact situations, not make first conducting portion 180 of the first film 150 take place to be electrically connected improperly with second conducting portion 190 of second film 160.
Second embodiment
See also Fig. 6, the difference of the present embodiment and first embodiment only is that the foreign matter eliminating portion 210 of substrate 140 is a recess, and the assembly structure of remaining press-key structure 100 is all identical with first embodiment with configuration mode, does not therefore give unnecessary details in addition.
Similarly, when having foreign matters such as the dust or the grains of sand on the substrate 140, these foreign matters just can drop among recess 210.So in the time of on film assembly 130 is arranged at substrate 140, second film 160 just can be because of have foreign matter and projection on substrate 140, and then under the situation that more can not be touched at press-key structure 100 ends, make first conducting portion 180 of the first film 150 take place to be electrically connected improperly with second conducting portion 190 of second film 160.
The 3rd embodiment
See also Fig. 7, the press-key structure 300 of present embodiment is a kind of press-key structure of mobile phone.Present embodiment and the difference of first, second embodiment are that the structure of keycap 110 of the structure of keycap 110 ' of press-key structure 300 and press-key structure 100 is different.Simultaneously, press-key structure 300 does not have a bindiny mechanism, that is to say, keycap 110 ' is not to be connected on the substrate 140 in mode moving up and down by bindiny mechanism, and therefore, moving up and down of keycap 110 ' is directly to carry out.In addition, the assembly structure of remaining press-key structure 300 is all identical with first embodiment with configuration mode, does not therefore give unnecessary details in addition.
Similarly, when having foreign matters such as the dust or the grains of sand on the substrate 140, these foreign matters just can be discharged by through hole.So in the time of on film assembly 130 is arranged at substrate 140, second film 160 just can be because of have foreign matter and projection on substrate 140, and then more can under press-key structure 100 intact situations, not make first conducting portion 180 of the first film 150 take place to be electrically connected improperly with second conducting portion 190 of second film 160.
In addition, the press-key structure 300 of present embodiment also can adopt recess 210 as described in the second embodiment, so when having foreign matters such as the dust or the grains of sand on the substrate 140, these foreign matters just can drop among recess 210, so it equally has identical effect.
Though in conjunction with having disclosed the present invention with preferred embodiment; yet it is not in order to limit the present invention; any skilled personnel change and retouching when doing some, so protection scope of the present invention should be with being as the criterion that claim was defined without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
