Abstract
A touch weight adjustment mechanism for a keyboard device, which is capable of adjusting a touch weight of a key easily and appropriately by using a coil spring and changing the urging force of the spring. An adjustment spring is formed by a coil spring for causing a tensile force thereof to act on the key, thereby increasing the touch weight of the key. An adjustment shaft is formed in a rod shape and is movable in a lengthwise direction by being operated for rotation. A rotary connection member connects between one end of the adjustment spring and one end of the adjustment shaft, which are closest to each other, and a spring-side connecting portion thereof connected to the adjustment spring and a shaft-side connecting portion thereof connected to the adjustment shaft are rotatable relative to each other.
