The rotating portion 111 is inserted into the first mounting hole and rotatably connected to the supporting base 200. In this embodiment, a projection of the first attaching surface 110a on the second curved surface 210 is a first projection surface, and a projection of the second attaching surface 110c on the second curved surface 210 is a second projection surface. The projection of the rotating part 111 on the second curved surface 210 relative to the rotating center line of the supporting seat 200 is a middle projection line, and the first projection plane and the second projection plane are respectively positioned on two sides of the middle projection line. The first projection surface is positioned on the first matching curved surface, and the second projection surface is positioned on the second matching curved surface.

In one embodiment, the line connecting the center of the first curved surface 110 and the center of the second curved surface 210 is a normal line. The projection of the first contact surface 110a on the second curved surface 210 along the normal line is a first projection surface. The projection of the second contact surface 110c on the second curved surface 210 along the normal line is a second projection surface. Specifically, the normal lines are perpendicular to the seat body 200a and the mounting surface 22, respectively.

When the rotating portion 111 rotates to the first limit position in the positive direction relative to the supporting base 200, the first abutting surface 110a abuts against the second curved surface 210, and the switch structure 10 is in the triggered state. When the rotating portion 111 rotates to the second limit position in the opposite direction relative to the supporting base 200, the second abutting surface 110c abuts against the second curved surface 210, and the switch structure 10 is in the non-triggered state.

When the rotating portion 111 rotates to the second limit position in the opposite direction relative to the supporting base 200, the second abutting surface 110c abuts against the second curved surface 210, and at this time, the switch structure 10 is in the non-triggered state, that is, the switch structure is in the closed state. No matter the switch structure 10 is switched to the open state or the closed state, the key body 105 is overturned relative to the supporting seat 200 through the rotating part 111, and the bottom of the key body 105 is always attached to the surface of the second curved surface 210 of the supporting seat 200 when the switch structure is switched to the switch state, so that the attaching form of the key body 105 and the second curved surface 210 is the attaching between the surface and the surface, and compared with the traditional contact mode of the edge of the key body 105 and the supporting seat 200, the area of the key body 105 which is attached to the supporting seat 200 in a rotating mode is large, the vibration of the key body 105 of the switch structure 10 when the switch structure is switched is greatly reduced, and the user experience degree of the switch structure 10.

When the key body 105 is respectively turned to the first limit position or the second limit position relative to the supporting seat 200, the area of the key body 105 attached to the second curved surface 210 is relatively uniform.

As shown in fig. 6, in order to further improve the user experience, in one embodiment, the first and second curved mating surfaces are symmetrically disposed about a central line of the rotation portion 111 rotating relative to the support base 200, that is, the first and second projection surfaces are symmetrically disposed about a middle projection line. When the key body 105 is respectively turned to the first limit position and the second limit position relative to the supporting seat 200, the areas of the key body 105 and the second curved surface 210 are equal, that is, the area of the first attaching surface 110a is equal to the area of the second attaching surface 110c, so that the abutting force of the key body 105 against the second curved surface 210 is equal when the key body is turned to the first limit position and the second limit position relative to the supporting seat 200, and thus, a user feels comfortable in the switching process of the switch structure 10, and the experience of the user is further improved.

It should be noted that, the rotating portion 111 is convexly disposed on the side of the connecting surface adjacent to the supporting seat 200, the rotating portion 111 is installed in the first installation hole in a penetrating manner, the rotating portion 111 is turned over to the middle position relative to the supporting seat 200, at this time, the first attaching surface and the first matching curved surface are not attached, and the second attaching surface and the second matching curved surface are not attached, a gap exists between the first curved surface and the second curved surface, so that even if the curvature of the first attaching surface is the same as that of the first matching curved surface, the curvature of the second attaching surface is the same as that of the second matching curved surface, the rotating portion 111 can also be turned over relative to the supporting seat 200, and the key 100 can be turned over to be switched to the first limit position or the second limit position.

In one embodiment, the curvature of the first engaging surface is the same as the curvature of the first mating curved surface, so that when the rotating portion 111 rotates to the first limit position relative to the supporting base 200, the first engaging surface perfectly engages with the first mating curved surface. The curvature of the second attaching surface is the same as that of the second matching curved surface, so that when the rotating portion 111 rotates to the second limit position relative to the supporting seat 200, the second attaching surface and the second matching curved surface are perfectly attached to each other, so that the vibration of the key 100 is small in the process of turning and switching relative to the supporting seat 200, and the user experience degree of the switch structure 10 is further improved.

In one embodiment, the curvature of the first attaching surface is the same as the curvature of the second attaching surface, that is, the first attaching surface and the second attaching surface are symmetrically disposed, and since the curvature of the first attaching surface is the same as the curvature of the first mating curved surface and the curvature of the second attaching surface is the same as the curvature of the second mating curved surface, the curvature of the first mating curved surface is the same as the curvature of the second mating curved surface, so that the switch structure 10 is more compact. As shown in fig. 4 and 6, in the present embodiment, the first curved surface 110 and the second curved surface 210 are each a hyperboloid.

When the surrounding rib 113 rotates to the first limit position along the positive direction relative to the supporting seat 200, the first toggle portion and the second toggle portion push the trigger assembly to the trigger state together, so that the switch structure 10 is in the open state. When the surrounding rib 113 rotates to the second limit position in the opposite direction relative to the supporting seat 200, the first toggle portion and the second toggle portion push the triggering component to the non-triggering state together, so that the switch structure 10 is in the closed state. This causes the surrounding rib 113 to switch between the first limit position and the second limit position with respect to the support base 200, thereby performing the switching control of the switch structure 10.
