A key structure and a keyboard using the same are disclosed. The key structure includes a bottom plate, a keycap, a lifting mechanism, a backlight module, a fixer and a fixing portion. The lifting mechanism pivotally connects the bottom plate and the keycap. The backlight module is disposed on the bottom plate and is provided with a through hole, a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The through hole is extended to the second surface from the first surface. The fixer presses the first surface. The fixing portion presses the fixer on the bottom plate.

A keyboard device includes a substrate, keycaps, and a frame. The substrate has a top surface and a bottom surface and includes a welding-fixing portion. The welding-fixing portion includes a through hole and an arch-shaped bridge member. The arch-shaped bridge member is connected in the through hole and divides the through hole into partition holes. The arch-shaped bridge member has an arch portion and bridge bases. The arch portion protrudes from the top surface to form a recessed portion. The frame is disposed on the top surface and includes hollow holes respectively corresponding to the keycaps. The frame includes a welding member, and the welding member includes welding posts and a welding-fixing base. The welding posts respectively pass through spaces between the edge portion of the through hole and the arch-shaped bridge member. The welding-fixing base is received and fixed in the through hole and the recessed portion.

A keyswitch with adjustable tactile feedback is adjusted by an adjusting method. The keyswitch includes a baseplate, an upper housing, an upper bushing component, a lower bushing component, a keycap and a recovering component. The baseplate has an electrode module, the upper housing is disposed on the baseplate, the upper bushing component is movably disposed on the upper housing, the lower bushing component is movably located between the baseplate and the upper housing, and the keycap is connected to a connecting portion of the upper bushing component. The lower bushing component can rotate relative to the baseplate to switch between a first position and a second position. The lower bushing component has a first lateral surface and a second lateral surface with different shapes. The recovering component is disposed between the baseplate and the lower bushing component to upwardly push the lower bushing component.

A keyboard device is provided with a base plate, a plurality of key tops, a membrane sheet, and a frame. The frame has a frame portion interposed between the key tops adjacent to each other and partitions each key top in a vertically movable state by the formation of a gap between the side surface of the frame portion and the side surface of the key top. The base plate has a notch portion at a position at least overlapping with a portion under the gap.

A keyboard includes an elastic element disposed above a bottom case, a light emitter, a light receiver, a pressing element, and a keycap. When a force toward the bottom case is applied to a top surface of the elastic element, a relationship between a force to move the top surface and a distance from the top surface to the bottom case is in a negative correlation in a path of the top surface from a first position to a second position, and a relationship between a force to move the top surface and a distance from the top surface to the bottom case is in a positive correlation in a path of the top surface from the second position to a third position. The light emitter, the light receiver, and the pressing element are disposed above the elastic element. The keycap is disposed above the pressing element.

A push-button equipment includes a pressel; a mounting collar for being installed on a base, such as a button panel, the mounting collar including a seat for receiving the pressel; the pressel including a pressing face for receiving a press of a user and being insertable in the seat of the mounting collar in a forward direction orthogonal to the pressing face. The pressel is movable in the seat into a locked position by rotating it in the seat around a rotational axis extending in said direction orthogonal to the pressing face. In said locked position the collar blocks the pressel from moving in backwards direction orthogonal to the pressing face out from the seat. A pressel for the push-button equipment and a push-button arrangement of an elevator are also disclosed.
