Abstract

Disclosed is a base material for preparing a finger protection structure, including a main body and abutment blocks. Four corners of each abutment block form four corner cut portions, two corner cut portions of two adjacent abutment blocks together form two first gaps, and areas of the main body exposed to the first gaps are defined as elastic deformation areas. A finger protection structure is cut out of the main body along two elastic deformation areas and one second gap. The finger protection structure includes a base plate and the abutment blocks. Areas of the base plate exposed to the first gaps are defined as elastic deformation areas. When a stressed surface is impacted by a frontal impact force, the abutment blocks abut against each other and the base plate straightens. When the stressed surface is impacted by a lateral rotation force, the elastic deformation areas are elastically deformed.
