New description: [New technical field] This creation is about key caps, button devices and keyboards, especially low-level button devices, and it is about the low height of the key cap made of two materials. Button device. [Prior Art] Generally, the height of the button device of the portable keyboard is as low as possible. However, to reduce the keyboard, the key cap can be started, that is, the thickness of the keycap is lowered, but the key cap The material is generally plastic, if the thickness is too thin to break. [New content] The technical problem to be solved by this creation is to reduce the ancient production of the button device. Another technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a low-height button device using a root device and maintain a certain keycap strength. In order to solve the above technical problem, according to an embodiment, the button device includes a a bottom plate, 'having a first connection #; a key cap comprising a metal inner component to which the outer jaw is fixed, the metal inner component having a two-part portion; a membrane switch 'providing the base plate above or below; a connecting elastic body, between the membrane switch and the keycap; and a supporting device, and ancient.. first; 5 - the second end, the first end is movably connected to the first The connecting portion connects the second connecting portion to the main body. ° The second end is movable and has a hole thickness as a whole. Scissor support elements. In accordance with an embodiment, a top end of the metal inner member is passed through a top end of the elastomer to lower the button device. According to an embodiment, the support device further comprises a top end of the elastomer according to an embodiment. Contact with external 3 M429920 % Supplement, date of revision: 2012.3.28 Device According to the keyboard of the embodiment, the keyboard contains the above-mentioned buttons « and = ;; = features, and details can be explained by the following embodiments [Embodiment] • , . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1Λ1 The evaluation body 107 and the support device 109. The bottom plate HH has a -th connection portion; the key cap 1〇3 includes a metal inner member 固 a ^ ^ A 1 port 70 member 115 fixed to the outer member 113, the metal inner member 115 having a first connection Part 117' External Khan Du 11Ί a曰丨70 pieces U3 is usually made of plastic parts, and the second connecting portion 117 is generally made by stamping from ^*in1^1. The membrane switch ... 4 is placed between the bottom plate and the key cap (8). The branch unit (10) has a first end == 129'. The first end 119 is movably connected to the first connecting portion (1), and the fourth portion 129 is movably connected to the second connecting portion ln. Such as the cabinet] w As shown in Figure 1, the elastic body 107 can be designed as a bowl, but not limited to this. In addition, as long as the bottom plate 101 has a hole pattern ") to allow the elastic body to pass, the membrane switch 104 can also be disposed under the bottom plate. Other embodiments of the outer 70 piece 113 are metal (Ming's stainless steel), glass 'Taumman', wood. The outer member 113 is joined to the metal inner member u, riveted, or the like. noisy. According to an embodiment, the metal inner member 115 has an approximate central position and a hole 125 for the top end of the elastic body 107 to pass, to reduce the overall thickness of the button device 10, for example, to reduce the thickness of the 1 mm Degree, as shown in Figure 1. When the overall height of the keyboard is about 6.5, it can be a big contribution if it can reduce the thickness of this 1mm. According to an embodiment, the support shock 1〇9 further comprises a trim 139, as shown in FIG. And cut tl.101.101 M429920 S. 2S Year Month 修正 Amendment Supplementary Supplement, date of revision: 2012.3.28 According to an embodiment, the elastic body 107--- is in contact with the bottom surface of the component n3. Or there may be a small gap between the two, as shown in Figure 1. 3 illustrates a cross-sectional view of another embodiment of the keycap 103. In this embodiment, unlike FIG. 1, the outer edge of the metallic inner member 115 is wrapped in the outer edge of the outer member ι3. With the keyboard assembled by the above-described button device 10, the keyboard includes a plurality of the above-described button devices 10. It can be understood from the above description that the central position of the metal inner 7C member 115 of the present button device 10 has a hole for a top end of the elastic body to pass, and the overall thickness of the button device can be reduced to 丨mm, and the creation can be achieved. The technical problem to be solved is therefore practical. It is to be understood that the foregoing description is intended to be illustrative and not restrictive.
