A keyswitch device includes a bottom plate, a keycap, and a position-returning member. The keycap includes a metal cover and a covering member. The metal cover includes a first main body. The first main body has a first surface and a second surface respectively facing toward and facing away from the bottom plate. The first surface presents a pattern. The covering member includes a second main body covering the first surface. The second main body has a light-transmitting area covering the pattern. The position-returning member is disposed between the bottom plate and the keycap and contacts the first main body.

A backlight module including a light guide plate, a circuit board, an electronic component, a reflective sheet, a light-shielding sheet, and a light-emitting component is provided. The light guide plate includes an escape opening and a light-source opening. The circuit board is disposed under the light guide plate. The electronic component is electrically connected to the circuit board, and at least a part of the electronic component is located in the escape opening. The reflective sheet is disposed on a rear surface of the light guide plate and between the light guide plate and the circuit board. The light-shielding sheet is disposed on a light emitting surface of the light guide plate opposite to the rear surface. The light-emitting component is disposed in the light-source opening. A luminous keyboard using this backlight module is also provided.

A method of assembly for a switch within a user interface for a home appliance includes housing a circuit board within the user interface. The circuit board has at least one mechanically actuated switch having a first area. An input interface of the user interface has a button defining a second area, greater than the first area, and having an actuator corresponding to the switch. The button is coupled to at least one of the circuit board or the input interface for relative movement between an actuation position, where the actuator actuates the switch, and a non-actuation position, where the actuator does not actuate the switch.

A key structure including a base, a platform, a scissor structure, a heat conducting member, an elastic member, and a key cap is provided. The scissor structure is movably pivoted between the platform and the base. The heat conducting member is disposed on the platform. The elastic member is disposed on the base and is structurally in contact with the heat conducting member by passing through an opening of the platform. The key cap is disposed on the platform, and the heat conducting member is clamped between the key cap and the platform.

A slider structure for a keyboard comprising a housing, a depressible actuator disposed in the housing, and a chambered track configured to receive a balance bar structure, the balance bar structure operable to provide a structural support that resists a key cap coupled to the frame from tilting as a force applied at any point on the top surface of the key cap. When the depressible actuator is depressed, the depressible actuator is operable to push the balance bar structure causing the balance bar structure to rotate within the chambered track. The frame and depressible actuator are comprised of a rigid material and the chambered track is comprised of a compliant material that attenuates sound caused by the rotating of the balance bar structure within the chambered track.

A key structure, including a base plate, a thin film circuit, a dome switch, a scissor structure, an elastic piece, and a keycap, is provided. The thin film circuit is disposed on the base plate. The dome switch is disposed on the thin film circuit. The scissor structure is disposed on the base plate, wherein the scissor structure includes a first support and a second support pivotally connected to the first support, and the second support surrounds the first support. The first support has a trigger part, and the second support has a chamber disposed corresponding to the trigger part. The elastic piece is engaged inside the chamber, wherein the elastic piece has an interfering part located outside the chamber, and the interfering part is located on a moving path of the trigger part. The keycap is disposed on the scissor structure and the dome switch.

The present disclosure discloses a combination electronic switch with a transformable combination, which comprises a control operation module, a power and execution module, and a panel mounting module. The control operation module comprises a drive control assembly and an operation component, the power and execution module comprises a drive execution assembly, and the drive control assembly of the control operation module is electrically connected to the drive execution assembly of the power and execution module through preset assemblies. The control operation module is fixedly clamped to the power and execution module, and the panel mounting module is fixed on the power and execution module through the control operation module or directly fixed on the power and execution module.

The invention provides an input device including a holder, a first wheel, a slider, and a first pressure part. The first wheel is disposed on the holder, and includes a side surface, a circle center, and a segment adjusting structure. The segment adjusting structure is disposed on the side surface in a manner of surrounding the circle center. The slider is disposed on the holder, and is movable relative to the holder to move toward or away from the circle center. The first pressure part includes two first ends. One of the first ends is connected to the slider, and as the slider moves toward or away from the circle center, interference between the other first end and the segment adjusting structure is increased or reduced.

The emergency stop switch unit 2 as an operation switch unit includes a direct operation part 20A and an alternative operation part 20B. The direct operation part 20A has an emergency stop button 21 adapted to be directly operated. The alternative operation part 20B is adapted to be linked with the direct operation part 20A and alternatively operates the emergency stop button 21 in place of the direct operation part 20A. The alternative operation part 20B has a reception part 32 that detects a remote operation of the emergency stop button 21 and an electromagnetic solenoid 3 that actuates the emergency stop button 21 on the basis of the remote operation detected by the reception part 32.
