In an embodiment of the key structure of the present invention, the body has a plurality of studs facing the electric surface, and the positions of the studs correspond to the switches. When the button is not pressed, each of the posts maintains a distance from the corresponding push switch. In an embodiment t of the button structure of the present invention, the partition plate further comprises two positioning posts extending toward the circuit board, and the circuit board has two positioning holes corresponding to the positioning posts, and the positioning posts correspond to These are positioned in the holes. Based on the above, the Wei can be directly touched on the circuit board as if the card was touched, and the “hyperfusion method (4) is touched. In addition, it is possible to avoid card keys or poor contact due to assembly tolerances. To make the above-described features and advantages of the present invention more comprehensible, the following detailed description of the embodiments and the accompanying drawings are set forth below. M376820 «».. [Embodiment] FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a button structure applied to an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a button structure of FIG. 2, and FIG. 4 is a button structure of FIG. Cutaway view. Referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the button structure 200 is suitable for being applied to a notebook computer, and the button structure 200 and a touch panel 310 form a touch module, and the user's The finger slides on the touchpad 310 to move the indicator, and the finger presses the button structure 200 to achieve the function of typing or executing the program. The button structure 2 includes a casing 210, a circuit board 220 and a button 230. The casing 21 is a casing of the computer 300 equipped with a keyboard, and has an opening 212, and the circuit board 220 is disposed under the opening 212 of the casing 210, and the circuit board 220 has a plurality of pressing switches 222. . The button 230 is disposed on the circuit board 220 and located in the opening 212 of the casing 210. The button 230 has a body 232, a partitioning plate 234 and two elastic arms 236a, 236b, and the elastic arms 236a, 236b are the body 232. One of the extending ends of the longitudinal direction, the ends of the elastic arms 236a, 236b are fixed to the casing 210, and the partitioning plate 234 is located in the middle of the body 232' and a normal direction N1 of the partitioning plate 234 is perpendicular to a normal of the body Direction N2. The elastic arms 236a, 236b of the present embodiment are integrally formed with the body 232. In other embodiments, the elastic arms 236a, 236b may be assembled with the body 232 by means of fitting or the like, and the elastics are assembled. The materials of the arms 236a, 236b may be the same as or different from the body 232. In addition, the body 232 has a plurality of hooks 232a, and the circuit board 220 has a plurality of snap holes 224' and the hooks 232a pass through the snap holes 224 to assemble the 5 M376820 key 230 to the circuit board 220. The button 23A and the circuit board 220 of the embodiment are assembled by using a combination of the hook 232a and the buckle hole 224, and the assembly of the hot-melt method is known. The button structure 2 of the embodiment is not only easy to assemble. And the advantages of easy rework, the tolerance for assembly tolerance is also large. In addition, after the button 230 is assembled with the circuit board 22, the spacer 234 contacts one of the top surfaces 220a of the circuit board 220. Referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the body 232 has a plurality of protrusions 232c facing a surface 232b of the circuit board 220, and the positions of the protrusions 232c correspond to the push switch 222. When the button 230 is not pressed, each of the studs 232c maintains a distance d from the corresponding push switch 222. In addition, the Ik board 234 further includes two positioning posts 234a' extending toward the circuit board 220. The circuit board 220 has two positioning holes 226 corresponding to the positioning posts 234a, and the positioning posts 234a are correspondingly located in the positioning holes 226. The positioning of the positioning post 234 can increase the positioning effect during assembly and increase the stability after assembly. Incidentally, FIG. 4 shows only the right half of the button structure 2〇(), and the button structure 2〇〇 is a center of symmetry of the partition plate 234, and the structure is designed to be bilaterally symmetric. Fig. 5 is a schematic view of the button when it is pressed. Referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 5 simultaneously, when the user presses the right end of the body 232 of the button 23〇 with a finger, the right end of the body 232 is tilted, the protrusion 232c contacts and presses the switch 222, and the partition plate 234 contacts. The surface 220a of the circuit board 220 is disposed to prevent the left end of the body 232 from being tilted by the force of the right end to touch the push switch 222 located on the left side. It is worth noting that the spring arm 236a M376820 *··. deforms as the right end of the body 232 is tilted and stores a resilient restoring force. When the user stops applying force to the right end of the body 232, the elastic restoring force of the elastic arm 236a returns the right end of the inclined body 232 to the original position, and the protrusion 232c and the push switch 222 return to the distance d, As shown in Figure 4. Similarly, when the user presses the left end of the body 232 with a finger, the left end of the body 232 is also stressed and simultaneously touches the push switch 222' located on the left side, and the elastic arm 236b is also deformed and stores the elastic restoring force until the user Stopping the force application 'the elastic restoring force of the elastic arm 236b restores the body 232 to its original shape and the left end of the body 232 moves back to the original position. In summary, in the button structure of the present creation, the partition plate can be divided into left and right buttons in the actual operation of the user, and no additional processing is required to form individual left and right buttons, so the processing flow can be reduced. Furthermore, the hook of the button is buckled into the snap hole of the circuit board, and the elastic arm is fixed to the casing, and the whole pressing, the assembly of the structure can be completed without the complicated fusion process of the hot melt, and the assembly method is simpler and more And for the component's assembly tolerance has a large = tolerance. As can be seen from the above, the key structure of the present creation has the need to simplify the manufacturing process and increase the yield. Although the present invention has been disclosed in the above embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present creation, and any person having ordinary knowledge in the technical field can make a little more secret when it does not deviate from the spirit and scope of the present creation. The scope of protection of this creation shall be subject to the full-time definition of the social towel.
