Abstract:
A keyboard device includes a key structure, a switch circuit board, a supporting plate and an identification module. The key structure includes a keycap and a fingerprint sensing module. The fingerprint sensing module is installed on an inner surface of the keycap in order to acquire a fingerprint information of a finger. The identification module is located under the supporting plate and electrically connected with the fingerprint sensing module. The identification module receives the fingerprint information and determines whether an unlocking operation of unlocking a computer is performed according to the fingerprint information. Since the keycap is not equipped with a hollow region and the fingerprint sensing module is not exposed, the keyboard device has the aesthetically-pleasing appearance.

Claim (Index 8):
The keyboard device according to  claim 1 , wherein the key structure further comprises:\n a stabilizer bar connected with the keycap and located under the keycap; a scissors-type connecting element connected with the keycap and the supporting plate, wherein the keycap is fixed on the supporting plate through the scissors-type connecting element, so that the keycap is movable relative to the supporting plate; and an elastic element arranged between the keycap and the switch circuit board, wherein when the elastic element is pushed by the keycap, the switch circuit board is triggered by the elastic element, wherein when the elastic element is not pushed by the keycap, the elastic element provides an elastic force to the keycap.
