Patent attributes
A key structure includes a keycap, an elastic buffering element, a base plate, a first supporting element, a second supporting element and an elastomer. The elastic buffering element is installed in a locking part of the keycap. The first supporting element is connected with the keycap and the base plate. The keycap is movable upwardly or downwardly relative to the base plate through the first supporting element. A first end of the second supporting element is pivotally coupled to the base plate. A second end of the second supporting element is penetrated through a pivotal hole of the elastic buffering element and a clamping recess of the locking part. The elastomer is arranged between the keycap and the base plate. An inner diameter of the at least one pivotal hole is slightly smaller than an inner diameter of the clamping recess.
