Abstract:
A key switch includes a baseplate, a circuit layer, a keycap and a support rod. The baseplate has a hook and a first through hole neighboring to the hook. The circuit layer includes a plurality of superimposed sublayers disposed above the baseplate and having a through hole structure passing through the sublayers; a portion of one of the sublayers extends in the through hole structure over the first through hole and forms a resilient portion neighboring to the hook. Two sides of the resilient portion connect to the circuit layer. The keycap is disposed above the baseplate and can move upward and downward in respect to the baseplate. The support rod has a first portion, movably connecting to the keycap, and a second portion, engaged with the hook. The resilient portion extends beneath and abuts against the second portion for buffering a collision between the second portion and the baseplate.

Claim (Index 1):
A key switch, comprising:\n a baseplate, having a hook and a first through hole which is neighbor to the hook; a circuit layer, disposed above the baseplate and being next to the baseplate, the circuit layer comprising a plurality of superimposed sublayers and having a through hole structure passing through the sublayers, a portion of one of the sublayers extending in the through hole structure to a region in a vertical direction of the first through hole, the portion forming a first resilient portion, the first resilient portion having a fourth through hole and being neighbor to the hook, two sides of the first resilient portion connecting to the circuit layer; a support rod, disposed above the circuit layer and having a first portion and two second portions, each of the second portions having a lower end, the lower end extending substantially horizontally, a long axis of each of the two lower ends being substantially perpendicular to a long axis of the first resilient portion; and a keycap, disposed above the circuit layer, the support rod being between the keycap and the circuit layer, the first portion movably connecting to the keycap so as to make the keycap move up and down with respect to the baseplate; wherein the lower end urges different locations of the first resilient portion when the keycap moves up and down so as to make the lower end move along the long axis of the first resilient portion, and the first resilient portion extends beneath and abuts against the second portion in order to buffer a collision between the second portion and the baseplate.
