What is a pair of scissors foot keyboard?

1，What is Scissors foot keyboard

Scissors foot keyboard is also called “ X-structure” keyboard, which refers to the structure under the key is “X-shaped”.

The advantages of scissors foot keyboard are as follows:
1, The height of the keycap:

The average height of traditional desktop computer keyboard keycap module is 20mm and notebook computer is 6mm, while “X-structure” is 10mm. Owning to the advantage of “X-structure”, the keycap height was reduced to be almost the same with notebook computer, that’s the prerequisite of “X-structure” keyboard becomes the ultra slim keyboard.

2, key travel

Every coin has its two sides. Key travel is an important parameter of keyboard and decides on the touch feeling of the keyboard. According to the previous experience, reduce the keycap height can lower the key travel. Although the notebook keys are soft, the touch feeling can still be not good due to the short key travel. The traditional desktop keycaps’ key travel is generally accepted by customers. The desktop key travel is 3.8-4.0mm, while the notebook key travel is 2.5-3.0mm. “X-structure” keyboard inherits the key travel from desktop keyboard. The touch feeling is as comfortable as notebook keyboard.

3 Click force:
When you click the keycap from five different points, namely the top left corner, the top right corner, the bottom left corner, the bottom right corner and the center, you will find keycap instability from different click points. That’s the disadvantage of traditional keyboard. It needs big click force but unstable, causing hands fatigue. The balanced “X-structure” ensures the click force consistency. It makes the force shared on every pint, which is small and balanced. “X-structure” is comfortable with good touch feeling.

4,key-pressing noise:
The key-pressing noise of “X-structure” is 45, that’s 2～11dB lower than traditional keyboard.
