Claims20
An electronic device comprising a button assembly, the electronic device comprising:
- a housing which comprises a front housing facing a first direction, and a rear housing facing a second direction opposite to the first direction, and forming a space between the front housing and the rear housing;
- a button member which is at least partially exposed to an outside of the housing through at least a part of the rear housing;
- a substrate portion disposed on one surface of the button member in the space;
- a dome switch module mounted on the substrate portion;
- a bracket;
- and
- a block member which is disposed between the dome switch module and the bracket and comprises:
- a base portion coupled to one surface of the bracket,
- a contact portion in contact with the dome switch module, and
- a support portion disposed on a periphery of the contact portion,
- wherein one surface of the base portion is perpendicular to the front housing or the rear housing, and
- wherein the contact portion is inclined at a predetermined angle with respect to the front housing or the rear housing in a direction toward the dome switch module.
An electronic device comprising a button assembly, the electronic device comprising:
- a housing which comprises a front housing facing a first direction, and a rear housing facing a second direction opposite to the first direction, and forming a space between the front housing and the rear housing;
- a button member which is at least partially exposed to the outside of the housing through at least a part of the rear housing;
- a substrate portion disposed on one surface of the button member in the space;
- a dome switch module mounted on the substrate portion;
