| 45 | KEYSWITCH STRUCTURE, SWITCH STRUCTURE AND METHOD OF ASSEMBLING A KEYSWITCH STRUCTURE | US15382728 | 2016-12-18 | US20170178841A1 | 2017-06-22 | Chien-Shih Hsu |
| A keyswitch structure includes a base, a keycap, a frame disposed between the base and the keycap for providing a supporting and moving mechanism to the keycap, and another frame interacting with the former frame through a magnetic attraction force. When the keycap is not pressed, the magnetic attraction force drives the two frames to stably stand on the base and form a stable supporting structure, so that the keycap is located at a farther position relative to the base. When the keycap is pressed with an external force to move toward the base, the magnetic attraction force is overcome so that the two frames depart from each other; that is, the above stable supporting structure is temporarily destroyed. Once the external force applied to the keycap is eliminated, the two frames will form the stable supporting structure again due to the magnetic attraction force. | ||||||
