Claim Text:
1. A keyswitch structure comprising: a base comprising a first magnetic portion; a keycap disposed above the base; a first lift mechanism connected to and between the base and the keycap, the first lift mechanism comprising a first supporting part and a second supporting part, the first lift mechanism and the keycap being connected by a first connection portion, the first supporting part having a first sliding portion slidably disposed on the base, the keycap being capable of moving up and down relative to the base through the first lift mechanism; and a link moveably disposed on the base, the link having a second magnetic portion, the second magnetic portion and the first magnetic portion generating a magnetic force therebetween; wherein when the keycap is pressed by a user so that the keycap moves toward the base through the first lift mechanism, the first sliding portion slides on the base in a sliding direction and drives the link to move relative to the base, and when the pressing on the keycap by the user is eliminated, the magnetic force urges the link to move to drive the first sliding portion to slide in a direction opposite to the sliding direction so that the keycap moves away from the base.
