Abstract

A keyboard device includes a base plate and a key structure. The key structure includes a keycap, a first connecting element, a second connecting element and a stabilizer bar. The first connecting element and the second connecting element are arranged between the base plate and the keycap and connected with the base plate and the keycap. The stabilizer bar is fixed on the first connecting element and the second connecting element. Since the stabilizer bar does not collide with the base plate to generate the unpleasant noise, the keyboard device of the present invention is capable of reducing the noise. Moreover, since the stabilizer bar is fixed on the first connecting element and the second connecting element, it is not necessary to install hooks corresponding to the stabilizer bar on the keycap and the base plate and the fabricating cost is reduced.
