Abstract
A touchpad apparatus includes a housing, a movable member, and a touchpad substrate. The housing includes a first stepped portion provided with a plurality of steps. The steps gradually ascend along a rotation direction around an axis. The movable member is disposed on the housing and is configured to rotate relative to the housing around the axis. The movable member includes a first support portion selectively pressing against one of the plurality of steps. The touchpad substrate is configured to press against one end of the movable member away from the housing. By adjusting a distance between the movable member and the touchpad substrate, a pressing stroke of the touchpad is adjusted, so that a touch force is changed.
