Abstract
A keyswitch structure includes a base, a keycap, at least one lift mechanism, a link, and a restoration mechanism. The lift mechanism is connected to and between the base and the keycap. The link is moveably on the base. The restoration mechanism is disposed on the link and the base and can generate a restoration force. When the keycap is pressed down by a user to move toward the base, a sliding portion of the lift mechanism slides on the base to drive the link to move relative to the base. Further, when the pressing on the keycap by the user is eliminated, the restoration force urges the link to move to drive the sliding portion to slide reversely, so that the keycap moves away from the base.
