What is presented is a key module (110) for a keyboard. The key module (110) comprises a key tappet (220) comprising a coupling portion for coupling to a keycap for the key module (110). The key module (110) also comprises a module housing (230) formed to movably accommodate the key tappet (220), in order to enable a translational actuation movement of the key tappet (220) between a rest position and an actuated position relative to the module housing (230). The key module (110) further comprises a wire bracket (560) for providing tactile and/or acoustic feedback. The wire bracket (560) is elastically deflectable in the course of the actuation movement. The wire bracket (560) is bent with an overall bending angle of less than 360 degrees. The wire bracket (560) is fixed to the key tappet (220).

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a frame, a signal trigger fixed inside the frame, and a button penetrating the frame. The button includes a button post, an elastic cushion, and a button cap. The button post penetrates the frame to be adjacent to the signal trigger. The elastic cushion is fixed to an end of the button post away from the signal trigger. The button cap is fixedly connected to a side of the elastic cushion away from the button post. The elastic cushion is connected between the button post and the button cap, and the button cap can move relative to the button post due to elastic deformation of the elastic cushion.

In one embodiment, an oral irrigator includes a reservoir, a base configured to support the reservoir, and a button assembly coupled to the base. The button assembly may include a button, a spring coupled to the button, and a seal coupled to the spring. The button may be movable between an original position and an actuation position. The spring may be configured to deform in response to a user input force moving the button from the original position to the actuation position, and to resiliently return the button to the original position in response to cessation of the user input force on the button. The seal may inhibit fluid from entering through the spring into the base.

A button assembly adapted for being mounted in a controller includes a pedestal, a pressure sensor module and a key cap. A middle of the pedestal has an accommodating groove penetrating upward through a top surface of the middle of the pedestal. Two opposite sides of the pedestal have two limiting portions oppositely protruded outward. The pressure sensor module is mounted in the accommodating groove of the pedestal. The key cap is covered on the pressure sensor module. A bottom surface of the key cap has a contact portion contacting with the pressure sensor module. Two opposite sides of the key cap have an active portion and a fixing portion protruded outward. The active portion and the fixing portion are mounted to the two limiting portions, respectively. In processes of pressing and releasing the key cap, the active portion move downward and upward with respect to the one limiting portion.

Example of backlit switches are described. In an example, a backlit switch includes a printed circuit board (PCB) and a dome-type button coupled to the PCB. The dome-type button has a light transmitting portion. A light source is mounted on a first side of the PCB, and a tact switch is mounted on a second side of the PCB that is opposite to the first side. Further, a projection is provided to trigger the tact switch, in response to pressing of the dome-type button.

A keyboard device with a display panel including a base, a scissors feet assembly movably disposed on the base, an elastic member disposed on the base, a display panel supported by the scissors feet assembly and the elastic member, and multiple light transmittance keycaps disposed on the display panel is provided. The display panel has multiple display surfaces, multiple hollow portions, and multiple elastic portions. Each of the display surfaces is surrounded by the hollow portions, and is suspended between the hollow portions by the elastic portions. The light transmittance keycaps respectively and correspondingly cover the display surfaces.

A switch device structure includes an assembly of a main body and an operation body. An electrical connection module and an elastic unit are mounted on the main body. The contact arm of the electrical connection module has a first member and/or a second member with variable arrangement position. According to the position or motion of the operation body, the elastic unit provides an elastic force to push the contact arm of the electrical connection module into a contacting circuit closed state or make the elastic unit separate from the contact arm to form a circuit open state. The arrangement form of the first member and/or the second member of the contact arm of the electrical connection module is variable in accordance with the specification of the switch to achieve NO mode and NC mode.

The present disclosure relates to an operating member including a support; an actuating part, which has an actuating surface facing towards an operator, and the actuating part has an edge region, which is provided outside the actuating surface and via which the actuating part is supported on the support; wherein the actuating part has a layer structure, defining the actuating surface, and the layer structure has at least two layers that differ in the modulus of elasticity; wherein, in a transitional region between the edge region and the actuating surface, a layer with the smallest modulus of elasticity is a highly elastic layer, and has the greatest layer thickness compared to other layers of the layer structure, in order to provide an elastic compliance of the actuating part; a force sensor disposed between the support and the actuating part detects a displacement of the actuating part.

An electric pushbutton switch includes a guide housing, a switching element having a haptic element that produces a pressure point and a return spring that generates a restoring force, an actuator for actuating the switching element, and a resilient tolerance compensation element arranged between the guide housing and the actuator. The switching element being stationary relative to the guide housing and the actuator being movable relative to the guide housing. The actuator actuates the switching element against the restoring force when the actuator is moved relative to the guide housing in an actuating direction of the actuator towards the switching element. The resilient tolerance compensation element is arranged between the guide housing and the actuator. The resilient compensation element has a spring force directed in the actuating direction of the actuator towards the switching element and opposite the restoring force of the return spring of the switching element.

An input device including an operation key arranged in an opening of a panel is provided. The input device also includes a light source and a push button switch each being arranged in a position opposite an opening on a board. The operation key includes: a key top having a pressing part extending toward the push button switch. The pressing part is arranged in a position separated from a center position in planar view of the key top on a line that is parallel to a line connecting connection parts of the key top, which are connected with one pair out of one or more pairs of arms, and passes through the center position. The push button switch is arranged in a position on the board opposite an arrangement position of the pressing part.
