Problems solved by technology

Existing thin keyboard switches that use metal sheets as moving contacts are relatively insufficient in elasticity and lack of pressing feel due to the limitation of the internal space of the switch.
Manufacturers continue to improve the metal sheet material, shape and other aspects to increase the pressing experience, but it has been limited to the improvement of the pressing touch. Due to the limitation of the internal space of the thin keyboard switch, it has not been able to have the same pressing sound as the large keyboard switch.
[0003] At the same time, the keyboard switch has poor stability during use, resulting in unsmooth use and affecting normal use

Abstract

The invention discloses a thin-type mechanical keyboard switch. The thin-type mechanical keyboard switch comprises a base and a keycap arranged on the base, wherein a first lateral containing groove is formed in the base; a conducting assembly is arranged on the first lateral containing groove; a second lateral containing groove, a middle containing groove located between the first lateral containing groove and the second lateral containing groove, and a surrounding groove formed around an upper end edge of the base are further formed in the base, wherein the surrounding groove is internally provided with a balance frame and a torsional spring is arranged in the second lateral containing groove; the middle containing groove is internally provided with a separation sheet, a hanging sheet, a tension spring and a guide core; one end of the tension spring is clamped into the guide core and is connected with the hanging sheet and the other end of the tension spring is connected with the balance frame; a through groove is formed between the first lateral containing groove and the middle containing groove; the middle containing groove is internally provided with a piston; the piston is located between the guide core and the conducting assembly. By adopting the thin type mechanical keyboard switch, the stability is improved and the thin type mechanical keyboard switch has a good touch feeling in a pressing process; sounds can be made in the pressing process and user experience is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a keyboard switch, in particular to a thin mechanical keyboard switch. Background technique [0002] Many operations of electronic devices require the use of keyboard switches as input means. The quality of the keyboard switch determines the experience of the input device, which requires the keyboard switch to have a good feel and sound. Existing thin keyboard switches that use metal sheets as movable contacts are relatively insufficient in elasticity and lack of pressing feel due to the limitation of the internal space of the switch. Manufacturers continue to improve the metal sheet material, shape and other aspects to increase the pressing experience, but it has been limited to the improvement of the pressing touch. Due to the limitation of the internal space of the thin keyboard switch, it has not been able to have the same pressing sound as the large keyboard switch. [0003] At the same time, the keyboard switch has poor ...
