20240161986 · 2024-05-16 ·

A switch device includes at least one spring, a sliding body and a circuit board. The at least one spring is configured to generate a switch signal corresponding to an inductance of the at least one spring, and includes a first spring portion and a second spring portion arranged along a first direction. The inductance is associated with a first interval between the first spring portion and the second spring portion. The sliding body is configured to move along the first direction to change the first interval. The circuit board is configured to receive the switch signal. The at least one spring is located between the sliding body and the circuit board.

Keyswitch structure and lift mechanism thereof

A keyswitch structure includes a base, a keycap, a lift mechanism and a light-emitting part. The lift mechanism includes a first support, a second support, and a spring structure. The first support and the second support are connected to and between the base and the keycap, so that the keycap can move relative to the base in a vertical direction. The spring structure is a single structural part and is connected to the first support and the second support and drives the first support and the second support to lift the keycap in the vertical direction. The lift mechanism as a whole defines a central space that extends through the whole lift mechanism in the vertical direction. The spring structure does not enter the central space. The light-emitting part is disposed on the base corresponding to the central zone, and emits light to illuminate the keycap.

10297405 · 2019-05-21 · ·

A keyboard has a keyswitch capable of showing its movement depth. The keyswitch includes a substrate, a lifting unit, a multistage positioning component and a keycap. The lifting unit is disposed on the substrate. The multistage positioning component is disposed on the substrate and has a plurality of first actuating portions. The keycap is connected with the lifting unit and adjacent by the multistage positioning component. The keycap has a second actuating portion. The keycap is moved relative to the substrate via the lifting unit, and the second actuating portion can contact against one of the plurality of first actuating portions to generate a feedback signal.

High-voltage earthing switch

A high-voltage earthing switch is disclosed. A static contact of the earthing switch is connected with the first end of a conductive copper busbar. The second end of the conductive copper busbar is connected with a transformer. The conductive copper busbar includes a first segment and a second segment connected with the first segment. The first segment is one straight segment and an end is taken as an end of the first end of the conductive copper busbar. The first segment extends from the static contact in the direction opposite to the instantaneous action direction of the moving contact when the moving contact engages the static contact. The second segment is connected with the other end of the first segment, and extends towards the side of the first segment facing away from the moving contact.
