Abstract
A keyboard includes a keyboard base, a key and a driving portion. The key includes a keycap and a key holder, and the driving portion includes a driving board, a first mating member, and a second mating member. The first mating member and the second mating member are arranged on the driving board; the driving board moves in a first direction relative to the keyboard base through the second mating member; and the key includes a key mating member, and when moving in the first direction, the driving board drives the first mating member to move relative to the key mating member to drive the key to descend.
