Abstract

The invention discloses a key module which is assembled in an electronic device shell, wherein the electronic device shell is provided with a display opening. The key module comprises a sliding piece, at least one switching unit and a sensing unit. The sliding part is connected in series with a plurality of key bodies and an operating part and is slidably arranged in the shell. The switching unit is configured in the shell and is opposite to the display opening, so that the key bodies positioned at the display opening are positioned between the switching unit and the display opening. The sensing unit is configured in the shell and positioned at one side of the key bodies. When the key bodies slide relatively to the shell, a sensing signal is generated by the sensing unit generates and outputs a sensing signal, and the switching unit is switched to a corresponding switching control mode according to the sensing signal.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a key module, and in particular to a key module of an electronic device. Background technique [0002] In the era of technology, people's daily life is increasingly dependent on various electronic devices, such as mobile phones or personal digital assistants (Personal Digital Assistant, PDA). The needs of consumers tend to be diversified. For example, today's mobile phone is no longer just a tool for communication. Consumers can use mobile phones to surf the Internet, listen to music or use other entertainment functions. [0003] In order to facilitate the use of the functions of the electronic device, a plurality of function keys are generally arranged on the electronic device, such as volume up / down, power key or music function key, etc., for users to operate or use functions function corresponding to the key. In other words, when the electronic device has more functions, the number of function keys that need to be configu...
