Description of the Invention: [Technical Field of the Invention] [0001] The present invention relates to a modular modular structure of a button and a method for cutting the same, particularly a button that simplifies assembly procedures, improves processing efficiency, and reduces production costs. Modular structure and assembly method. [Prior Art] [_] As the functions of various electronic products increase, the related input tools also meet the needs of operational convenience to appropriately enhance the competitiveness of the products. 将 Attributes or functions in terms of common button structures Different similar buttons are set in a preset area and have the same color to facilitate the user's operation as a currently popular button classification method; however, due to the increasingly compact size of electronic products, various key structures The gap between the keyholes and the keyholes is increasingly narrow and precise, and when the keys of different colors are formed into modules, the error values and precisions are not the same. If the button modules of multiple colors are combined, The situation of tolerance progression is more serious 'cause the keys of different colors (groups) are extremely difficult to be accurately fixed by Φ on a single module, and it is difficult to apply the keys of different colors (groups) once and once. The ground punches into the keyhole of the keyboard, and the keys of different colors are respectively formed into different key modules (the key module is plural) The button unit is arranged on one frame at a time, and then into the corresponding key holes in several times. The assembly method has the following two types: 1. Manually remove each button unit from the frame one by one, and respectively The button unit is placed in the corresponding corresponding button slot on the cover of the electronic product; this assembly method is extremely time-consuming and labor-intensive, and is only suitable for areas with low labor costs, and has gradually become difficult to conform to the world trend. 097149985 2. Using the automatic processing tool to press the button unit of the single button module at the same time as the form number A0101, page 4/19 pages, 0972081458-0, 201025379, into the corresponding corresponding button slot on the cover of the electronic product. The above-mentioned procedures need to be repeatedly implemented to separately combine different (color) button modules into different corresponding button slots of the outer frame cover, which is more convenient and efficient than the manual assembly described above. It is still necessary to repeat the same operation according to the number of different (color) button modules, which not only increases the burden on the equipment, but also affects the assembly efficiency, so there is still room for improvement. ❹ [0003] 097 097149985 In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the conventional button assembly method, the inventors have studied the improvement of these disadvantages, and finally the present invention has been produced. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The main object of the present invention is to provide a button, modular combination cutting method, which can complete the different rounds (colors) under the work by a single stamping, which can effectively improve assembly efficiency and reduce Cost of production. Another object of the present invention is to provide a button module and a combination
