  • SLENDER KEYSWITCH STRUCTURE
    Publication number: 20070108033
    Abstract: The invention is to provide a keyswitch disposed on an electronic apparatus. According to the invention, the keyswitch includes a keycap, a resilient member and a switch. When an external force acts on a press portion of the keycap, the keycap compresses the resilient member such that a plurality of resilient ends of the resilient member slide on the keycap, and that a projection, formed on an inner surface of the press portion, is actuated by the keycap to turn on the switch.
