Abstract

A keyswitch structure includes a base, a cap disposed corresponding to the base, a restoring member disposed between the base and the cap, and a tactile adjustment unit. The cap has a cam portion movable relative to the base. The restoring member is configured to provide a restoring force to enable the cam portion to move away from the base. The tactile adjustment unit is disposed corresponding to the cam portion and includes a holder and a tactile feedback member mounted on the holder. The holder is movable relative to the base to change a position of the tactile feedback member relative to the cam portion, so as to change a pressing force required for the cam portion to move toward the base.
