Switch device and rubber contact
A switch device includes a substrate having at least one fixed contact and an inflow/outflow section provided with at least one through-hole, and a rubber contact to cover the substrate. The rubber contact includes at least one moving section disposed facing the respective at least one fixed contact, the moving section elastically deforming such that moving contacts corresponding to the respective fixed contacts are capable of contacting/separating, an in/out section disposed facing the inflow/outflow section and configured to form a space with the inflow/outflow section, a flow path section configured to form a flow path to connect the in/out section and the at least one moving section, and at least one chamber section having a space larger than a space occupying along representative length of the flow path section on a portion of the flow path section, and having strength such that a shape of the space is maintained.
Key structure
A key structure includes a keycap, a supporting plate, a connecting element, a circuit board and an elastic element. The circuit board is disposed on the supporting plate. The circuit board includes a switch element. A first switch unit of the switch element is formed on a top surface of a first film layer of the circuit board. A second switch unit of the switch element is formed on a top surface of a second film layer of the switch element. When the keycap is depressed in response to an external force, the elastic element is subjected to deformation. Consequently, the first switch unit and the second switch unit are selectively turned on to generate a first key signal and a second key signal.
