Touch button with better feel in pressing
First Claim
1. A touch button with better feel in pressing, comprising a touch board, a fixing element, a step-shaped elastic connector and an elastic supporter, wherein the touch board is provided with a touch area and a press area which is adjacent the touch area;
- the fixing element is disposed on a side of the touch board to form a difference in height from the touch board, is used to fix the touch board on a casing and forms a gap from the casing;
the elastic connector is used to connect the touch board with the fixing element, and is provided with a first connecting portion, having a first groove, to connect the touch board, a second connecting portion, having a second groove, to connect the fixing element and an elastic connecting portion which is connected between the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion to form the difference in height between the touch board and the fixing element, forming a state of elastic vertical displacement between the press area and the casing by the elastic connecting portion; and
the elastic supporter is disposed in the press area of the touch board and includes a positioning portion which is fixed on the touch board and an elastic portion which is extended from the positioning portion toward the casing to be disposed in the gap, forming an elastic supporting force to the press area by the elastic portion, so that the press area manifests a state of elastic vertical displacement on the casing by the elastic supporting force.
