Abstract:
1. A keyswitch device comprising: a supporting seat including a base board and two first confining members that are formed on said base board and that are spaced apart from each other, each of said first confining members having a key cap including a cap body and two first hooks that are registered respectively with said first confining members, each of said first hooks having an extending part that protrudes from a bottom surface of said cap body and an engaging part that protrudes laterally from said extending part, said engaging part of each of said first hooks engaging said retaining space of a respective one of said first confining members, thereby inhibiting said key cap to move in the first and second horizontal directions with respect to said supporting seat, and allowing said key cap to move vertically in a range equal to the height of said first blocking parts; a circuit board disposed on said supporting seat; and an elastic member located between said key cap and said circuit board, and deformed to press said circuit board so as to generate a corresponding signal when said key cap is moved downward.
