Description

输入装置
技术领域
本发明是有关于一种输入装置，且特别是有关于一种可以分辨用户使用模式的输入装置。
背景技术
电子装置如计算机，一般包括主机、显示装置及输入装置等，随着科技的发展，发光装置(如背光光源)可被设置于特定计算机输入装置中，以让该计算机输入装置在黑暗环境中维持一定的可视度。
然而，一般计算机输入装置的背光光源仅设置于按键下方，其仅能使用户在黑暗环境中辨识按键上的字符，并不能满足用户更多的需求。例如，用户并不能根据按键字符的发光状态来分辨当前的使用模式/状态。因此，如何利用输入装置来分辨当前的使用模式，成为值得研发的课题。
发明内容
本发明的一实施例中，提供一种输入装置，可以分辨用户的使用模式。
本发明的一实施例提出一种输入装置，包括壳体、键盘组件及第一光源。壳体具有本体和多个侧壁，多个侧壁环绕本体，并形成一容置空间。键盘组件，设置于容置空间。第一光源，设置于本体，其发出的光通过多个侧壁射出。
基于上述，在本发明的实施例的输入装置中，通过在壳体本体内部设置第一光源，其发出的光通过壳体的多个侧壁射出，从而可在键盘组件周缘形成发光效果，通过设定发光状态对应的计算机使用模式，可以使用户更直观的作出分辨。
为让本发明的上述特征和优点能更明显易懂，下文特举实施例，并配合所附图式作详细说明如下。

具体实施方式
图1为本发明的一实施例的输入装置1的示意图。图2绘示本发明的一实施例的输入装置1的剖面示意图。请先参考图1、图2，本实施例的输入装置1包括壳体10、键盘组件20、第一光源30。壳体10具有本体11和多个侧壁12，本体11不透光，其可由不透光材质制成或者在其表面涂设有不透光层，多个侧壁12为透光材质，在一实施例中，多个侧壁12表面涂设有半透明层，例如是与本体11颜色接近的半透明层，以保持壳体10的一致性，但多个侧壁12表面是否涂设半透明层以及半透明层的颜色可根据实际需要进行变化，本发明并不对此进行限制。
在本实施例中，多个侧壁12与本体11连接，并环绕本体11朝下延伸，形成容置空间13。需要说明的是，多个侧壁12与本体11可以是一体成型，例如通过双射成型的方式制造，也可以是各自成型后再通过其他方式连接在一起，例如粘贴、铆接等，但本发明并不对此进行限制。键盘组件20设置于容置空间13内，也就是说，本体11和多个侧壁12环绕于键盘组件20的周缘。第一光源30设置于本体11下方，此处的“下方”是指在位置高低上第一光源30低于本体11，并不限定第一光源30与本体11在垂直投影上有交叠。第一光源30包括第一发光元件31及第一光源电路板32，第一发光元件31设置于第一光源电路板32上。由于多个侧壁12为透光材质，第一发光元件31发出的光可以从多个侧壁12射出，从而使键盘组件20的周缘发光。
在一实施例中，输入装置1还包括控制器(图中未示出)，其与第一发光元件31电性连接，用于控制第一发光元件31的开启及关闭。电子装置还可以透过设定，使得第一发光组件31的发光效果对应于电子装置的使用模式，从而方便使用者快速分辨。例如，可设定第一发光元件31开启时，也就是多个侧壁12发光时，电子装置处于电子竞技状态；第一发光元件31关闭时，也就是多个侧壁12未发光时，电子装置处于休眠状态；如此，使用者可根据多个侧壁12的发光状态来轻易分辨出电子装置目前的模式或状态。
在一实施例中，键盘组件20包括底板21、多个按键22，且多个按键22设置在底板21上。多个侧壁12从与本体11连接处朝向底板21延伸。在本实施例中，多个侧壁12与本体11所形成的夹角为钝角，在其他实施例中，多个侧壁12与本体11所形成的夹角也可以为锐角或直角，其可根据实际需要进行变化，本发明并不对此进行限制。
在一实施例中，输入装置1还包括外框40，其设置于容置空间13，且套设于键盘组件20。外框40具有与多个按键22相适应的多个开孔41，多个按键22从多个开孔41突出。外框40的设置可以进一步保护和定位多个按键22。另外，外框40的高度低于本体11，也就是说，由于外框40与本体11之间具有一高度差，如此可以避免外框40遮挡从多个侧壁12射出的光。
请一并参考图3、图4，图3、图4分别绘示本发明的又一实施例的输入装置1的剖面示意图。在一实施例中，键盘组件20还包括第二光源23，设置于底板21的下方。底板21上与多个按键22对应的位置分别设有破孔24，第二光源23发出的光从破孔24射出至多个按键22。需要说明的是，第二光源23也可以设置在底板21的上方，其可根据实际需要进行变化，本发明并不对此进行限制。
