The present invention is a keyboard having a touch mode and a character mode. The keyboard includes a circuit board having multiple through holes, a plurality of elastic portions disposed on the circuit board, a plurality of key caps being arrayed and adjacent to each other and a plurality of supporting structures. The key caps define a plurality of character buttons and at least one switching button, and the keyboard enters the touching mode or the character mode by activating the switching button. In the touch mode, the adjacent character buttons allow to be touched and pressed to make the circuit board to output a touch or a sliding signal. In the character mode, each character button is touched and pressed to make the circuit board to output character signal from the circuit board. |

1. A keyboard having a touch mode and a character mode, the keyboard comprising:
a circuit board, having a plurality of through holes; a plurality of elastic portions, disposed on the circuit board; a plurality of key caps, being arrayed and adjacent to each other and being disposed correspondingly above the elastic portions, wherein the key caps define a plurality of character buttons and at least one switching button; and a plurality of supporting structures, being correspondingly pivoted within the through holes of the circuit board in order to connect with the circuit board and the key caps, wherein when the keyboard is the touch mode by activating at least the switching button to make the keyboard into the touch mode, the adjacent character buttons allow to be touched or pressed continuously so as to output a touch signal or a sliding signal from the circuit board; when the keyboard is the character mode by activating at least the switching button to make the keyboard into the character mode, each character button is allowed to be touched or pressed so as to output a character signal. |
