Abstract
A detachable keyboard structure includes a first magnetic component, a second magnetic component, and a movable component. The first magnetic component is disposed in the wireless keyboard while the second magnetic component is disposed in the computer main body. The first and the second magnetic components produce magnetization due to the opposite magnetisms thereof for attracting the keyboard to the computer main body. The moveable component is capable of transferring the magnetic relation between the first magnetic component and the second magnetic component. When the moveable component is forced to move and therefore transfer the magnetic relation, the first and the second magnetic components produce repellence with each other due to the same magnetism thereof for detaching the keyboard from the computer main body.
