Description
本發明係關於一種按鍵的按鍵連接組件,並且特別是關於按鍵的底板與支架之間具有牢固的連接之按鍵連接組件。The present invention relates to a key connection assembly of a key, and in particular to a key connection assembly with firm connection between the bottom plate and the bracket of the key.
典型的按鍵會以成對的支架構件所構成的升降機構可轉動地及/或可滑動地連接至鍵帽以及底板上,藉此讓鍵帽能相對於底板垂直移動。A typical key is rotatably and/or slidably connected to the keycap and the base plate by a lift mechanism formed by a pair of bracket members, thereby allowing the keycap to move vertically relative to the base plate.
將支架構件連接在底板上的常見方式,是形成勾狀或鉗狀限位結構底板上,用以連接支架構件的轉軸。A common way of connecting the bracket member to the base plate is to form a hook-shaped or clamp-shaped limiting structure on the base plate, which is used to connect the rotating shaft of the bracket member.
然而,底板與其限位結構通常以金屬板製成。支架構件則是以高分子材料製成。因此,當支架構件的轉軸是以干涉組裝方式迫入限位結構內時,轉軸容易被限位結構切削,導致轉軸與限位結構內壁間存在不必要的間隙。使得鍵帽受到使用者施力移動時,因前述間隙而發生鍵帽晃動。However, the bottom plate and its limiting structure are usually made of metal plate. The stent member is made of polymer material. Therefore, when the rotating shaft of the bracket member is forced into the limiting structure by means of interference assembly, the rotating shaft is easily cut by the limiting structure, resulting in an unnecessary gap between the rotating shaft and the inner wall of the limiting structure. When the keycap is forced to move by the user, the keycap shakes due to the aforementioned gap.

直立設置的限位結構103係形成於主板體101上,並且與一個定位結構102相對。限位結構103與定位結構104大體沿一限位方向R平行延伸,限位結構103與定位結構104可以位於同一直線上,或是彼此錯位而平行。限位結構103包含朝向相對的定位結構102延伸之勾狀部1032。定位結構102與限位結構103間具有缺口1011和通孔1010彼此上下連通,通孔1010係形成於直立設置的定位結構102與相對的限位結構103之間。通孔1010上方定義有缺口1011。缺口1011係形成於勾狀部1032與定位結構102的頂部1020之間,缺口1011及通孔1010使得定位結構102與相對的限位結構103沿著一軸承方向A被貫穿,限位方向R與軸承方向A垂直。限位結構103具有面向定位側壁1022之限位側壁1034。主板體101還具有容置孔1014及承靠端1015,都位於前側FS處,並且水平面的容置孔1014與直立面的通孔1010橫直連通,承靠端1015位於容置孔1014前方。
An upright limiting
直立設置的抵接翼片104係形成於主板體101上,例如在主板體101上沖壓出片體而向上彎折成型。抵接翼片104係位於限位結構103的前方,但是抵接翼片104的彎折方向並不予以限定,抵接翼片104的上彎面1044可能朝向軸承方向A,也可能面向作動軸134(垂直軸承方向A或平行限位方向R)。抵接翼片104具有面向作動軸134或面向定位側壁1022之抵接壁面1042,即抵接壁面1042垂直軸承方向A或平行限位方向R。圖5中抵接壁面1042與上彎面1044垂直,上彎面1044朝向軸承方向A,而抵接壁面1042平行或朝向限位方向R。

根據本發明之較佳具體實施例之按鍵1之另一變形同樣地其僅有底板10的結構略有不同,因此,僅對底板10不同處詳細說明。如圖10所示的底板1其上兩個緊鄰的定位結構102係整合成單一結構以及兩個緊鄰的限位結構103係整合成單一結構的情形並存。於圖10中,兩個緊鄰的定位結構102之間以及兩個緊鄰的限位結構103之間皆係標示虛線以做區隔。在此也藉圖10來說明前側FS與後側BS的方位並非絕對的,而是不同組定位結構102、限位結構103以及抵接翼片104的相對方位而定。
Another modification of the key 1 according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention is only slightly different in the structure of the
藉由以上對本發明之詳述,可以清楚了解根據本發明實施例揭露之按鍵連接組件,其支架的作動軸由定位結構的定位側壁與抵接翼片的抵接壁面侷限。藉此,根據本發明之按鍵其支架的作動軸係可牢固地連接於底板上,並且支架的轉軸能夠在底板的限位結構內轉動及/或移動,使得鍵帽相對於底板垂直移動時,不會因作動軸與限位結構內壁之間存在的間隙而發生鍵帽晃動。 From the above detailed description of the present invention, it can be clearly understood that the actuating axis of the bracket of the key connecting assembly disclosed according to the embodiment of the present invention is limited by the positioning side wall of the positioning structure and the abutting wall surface of the abutting fin. Thereby, the actuating shaft system of the bracket of the key according to the present invention can be firmly connected to the bottom plate, and the rotating shaft of the bracket can be rotated and/or moved within the limiting structure of the bottom plate, so that when the keycap moves vertically relative to the bottom plate, The keycap will not shake due to the gap between the actuating shaft and the inner wall of the limiting structure.
藉由以上較佳具體實施例之詳述,係希望能更加清楚描述本發明之特徵與精神,而並非以上述所揭露的較佳具體實施例來對本發明之面向加以限制。相反地,其目的是 希望能涵蓋各種改變及具相等性的安排於本發明所欲申請之專利範圍的面向內。因此,本發明所申請之專利範圍的面向應該根據上述的說明作最寬廣的解釋,以致使其涵蓋所有可能的改變以及具相等性的安排。 Through the detailed description of the preferred embodiments above, it is hoped that the features and spirit of the present invention can be described more clearly, rather than limiting the aspect of the present invention by the preferred embodiments disclosed above. On the contrary, its purpose is to It is intended to cover various modifications and equivalent arrangements within the scope of the claimed scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of the claims to which the present invention is claimed should be construed in the broadest sense in light of the foregoing description so as to encompass all possible modifications and equivalent arrangements.
