Abstract
A lever button of an electronic product is provided. The lever button is disposed inside a housing, and is deformed under an external force to generate a displacement to press a switch. The lever button includes a fulcrum shaft pivotally disposed in the housing, a pressing section extending from the fulcrum shaft, and at least one suspension arm in the direction opposite to the extending direction of the pressing section. The suspension arm together with the pressing section and the fulcrum shaft forms a lever structure to urge against the housing in the direction opposite to the pressing direction when a user presses the pressing section. The lever button adopts an assembly configuration, and after being assembled, the fulcrum shaft and the suspension arm urge the housing to make the pressing section evenly attached on the housing.
