Technical Field
The invention relates to a keyboard.
Background
In terms of the current usage habit of personal computers, a keyboard is one of the indispensable input devices for inputting characters or numbers. Moreover, for consumer-grade electronic products in contact with daily life or large processing equipment used in the industry, a key structure is required to be provided as an input device for operating the electronic products and the processing equipment.
For the keys of the keyboard, in order to guide the keycap to move vertically, a linkage member is usually disposed under the keycap of the key. For example, the scissors-type linkage is formed by two supporting members that are disposed alternately. In addition, in order to balance the force applied by the user on the long-time key, a balance rod is usually arranged below the keycap of the long-time key. Therefore, the force can be evenly distributed on the whole key cap surface no matter the force is applied to the side edge or the corner of the key cap.
Generally, the balance bar is usually fixed in the keyboard by a hook connected to the bottom plate. One conventional method of forming the hooks on the base plate is to stamp a sheet metal part to form the hooks that can be bent and erected. However, the bottom plate and the balance bar are generally made of metal, so that when the keyboard is used, metal knocking noise is often generated.
Therefore, how to provide a keyboard capable of solving the above problems is one of the problems that the industry needs to invest in research and development resources to solve.
Disclosure of Invention
In view of the above, an objective of the present invention is to provide a keyboard that can effectively solve the aforementioned problems.
To achieve the above objective, according to one embodiment of the present invention, a keyboard comprises a base, a key cap, and at least one balance element. The base plate has a plurality of attachment structures. The keycap is located above the bottom plate. The balance assembly comprises a balance rod and two silencing pieces. The balancing pole is located between bottom plate and the key cap to link up the key cap. The silencing piece is connected with the balance rod and is connected with the at least one connecting structure. The balancing component is configured to guide the keycap to move relative to the base plate. The hardness of the bottom plate and the balancing rod is greater than that of the silencing piece.
In one or more embodiments of the present invention, the balance bar includes a first bar body and a second bar body that are connected and bent with respect to each other. The first rod body is connected with the keycap. The silencing piece comprises a body part and at least one shaft part. The body part is sleeved at one end of the corresponding second rod body, which is far away from the first rod body. The at least one shaft part is connected with the body part and is connected with the corresponding connecting structure.
In one or more embodiments of the present invention, the shaft is substantially parallel to the first rod.
In one or more embodiments of the present invention, the shaft extends substantially opposite to the second rod.
In one or more embodiments of the present invention, the shaft portion extends substantially opposite to the second rod body.
In one or more embodiments of the present invention, the number of the at least one shaft portion is two. The body portion is located between two of the connection structures. The two shafts are located on two opposite sides of the main body and respectively connected with the two connecting structures.
In one or more embodiments of the present invention, the body portion is slidably sleeved on the end of the at least one second rod away from the first rod.
In one or more embodiments of the present invention, the body portion has a channel. The channel has two open ends. The second rod body is inserted into the channel from one of the two open ends.
In one or more embodiments of the present invention, the number of the at least one balancing component is two. The two balancing components are arranged in a horizontal symmetrical mode relative to the bottom plate.
In one or more embodiments of the present invention, the keyboard further includes a linkage. The linkage piece is connected between the base plate and the keycap and configured to guide the keycap to move towards or away from the base plate. The two balance components surround the linkage component together.
In summary, in the keyboard of the present invention, the balance bar of the balance assembly is connected to the connecting structure on the bottom plate through the noise reduction element, and is not directly touched to the connecting structure, so that the noise caused by metal impact when the keycap is pressed can be effectively avoided. In addition, by means of the fact that the silencing piece is slidably sleeved on the balance rod (namely, the silencing piece and the balance rod are in a non-fixed state), interference between the silencing piece and the balance rod can be avoided during sliding of the silencing piece relative to the connecting structure, and the problem that structural interference occurs between the balance component and other components in the process that the keycap is pressed is effectively avoided.
The foregoing is merely illustrative of the problems, solutions to problems, and other aspects of the present invention, and the specific details thereof are set forth in the following description and the related drawings.
