Referring to fig. 1 to 3 of the drawings accompanying the present specification, a light-transmitting member 100 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be disclosed and described in the following description, wherein the light-transmitting member 100 defines an inner side portion 101 and an outer side portion 102 corresponding to the inner side portion 101, wherein the light-transmitting member 100 allows light generated at the inner side portion 101 defined by the light-transmitting member 100 to be radiated to the outer side portion 102 of the light-transmitting member 100 after passing through at least one region of the light-transmitting member 100, and the light-transmitting member 100 serves to restrict a light-transmitting effect observed by a user at the outer side portion 102 defined by the light-transmitting member 100. For example, the light-transmitting effect observed by the user at the outer side portion 102 defined by the light-transmitting member 100 can be a pattern, a letter, or a number.
Specifically, the light-transmitting member 100 includes a transparent base layer 10, a light-shielding layer 20, and at least one transparent filling layer 30. The light-shielding layer 20 has at least one hollow area 21, wherein the light-shielding layer 20 is attached to the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10 to allow a portion of the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10 to be exposed to the hollow area 21 of the light-shielding layer 20. The transparent filling layer 30 is disposed on the transparent base layer 10 in such a manner that the transparent filling layer 30 is held in the hollow area 21 of the light-shielding layer 20. Light generated at the inner portion 101 defined by the light-transmitting member 100 is allowed to be radiated to the outer portion 102 defined by the light-transmitting member 100 after passing through the transparent base layer 10 and the transparent filling layer 30 in order to allow a user to observe a light-transmitting effect defined by the light-shielding layer 20 of the light-transmitting member 100 at the outer portion 102 defined by the light-transmitting member 100.
In other words, the shape of the hollow area 21 of the light-shielding layer 20 corresponds to the light-transmitting effect that can be observed by the user at the outer side portion 102 defined by the light-transmitting member 100. For example, in the specific example of the light-transmitting member 100 shown in fig. 1 to 3, the hollow-out area 21 of the light-shielding layer 20 may form a pattern of numbers and characters, so that when light is generated on the inner side portion 101 defined by the light-transmitting member 100, a user can observe the light-transmitting effect of numbers and characters on the outer side portion 102 defined by the light-transmitting member 100.
Preferably, the outer wall of the transparent filling layer 30 is flush with the outer wall of the light shielding layer 20, so as to avoid the problem that the light-transmitting member 100 has unevenness at a position corresponding to the hollow area 21 of the light shielding layer 20, thereby ensuring the aesthetic property of the light-transmitting member 100 and improving the texture of the light-transmitting member 100. For example, in the specific example of the light transmitting member 100 of the present invention shown in fig. 1 to 3, the outer wall of the transparent filling layer 30 and the outer wall of the light shielding layer 20 may be in the same arc surface. Alternatively, in other examples of the light-transmitting member 100 of the present invention, the outer wall of the transparent filling layer 30 and the outer wall of the light-shielding layer 20 may be in the same plane.
In other words, in the light-transmitting member 100 of the present invention, the surface shape formed by the outer wall of the transparent filling layer 30 and the outer wall of the light-shielding layer 20 is not limited as long as the outer wall of the transparent filling layer 30 and the outer wall of the light-shielding layer 20 are flush with each other to avoid the problem that the light-transmitting member 100 is uneven at the position corresponding to the hollow-out region 21 of the light-shielding layer 20.
It should be noted that the transparent base layer 10 and the transparent filling layer 30 of the light-transmitting member 100 of the present invention both have high transparency, so as to reduce the problem of diffuse reflection when light sequentially passes through the transparent base layer 10 and the transparent filling layer 30, thereby ensuring that a user can observe clear light-transmitting effect on the outer side portion 102 defined by the light-transmitting member 100. For example, in a preferred example of the light-transmitting member 100 of the present invention, the transparent base layer 10 is made of a plastic material, and the transparent filling layer 30 is made of a paint material, wherein the transparent paint is attached to an outer wall of the transparent base layer 10 to form the transparent filling layer 30. Specifically, the transparent filling layer 30 may be attached to the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10 by spraying. In another preferred example of the light-transmitting member 100 of the present invention, the transparent base layer 10 and the transparent filling layer 30 are made of plastic, wherein the transparent filling layer 30 is formed by a protruding portion 11 protruding from the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10, that is, the transparent filling layer 30 integrally extends from the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10.
Further, the light-transmitting member 100 includes a light-transmitting decoration layer 40, the decoration layer 40 is attached to the outer wall of the light-shielding layer 20 and the outer wall of the transparent filling layer 30, wherein the decoration layer 40 is used for covering the light-shielding layer 20 and the transparent filling layer 30 to form the overall appearance of the light-transmitting member 100. For example, in a specific example of the light-transmitting member 100 of the present invention, the decoration layer 40 may be a white paint layer, on one hand, the decoration layer 40 can cover the outer wall of the light-shielding layer 20 and the outer wall of the transparent filling layer 30, so that the light-transmitting member 100 has a uniform color at a portion corresponding to the outer wall of the decoration layer 20 and a portion corresponding to the outer wall of the transparent filling layer 30, on the other hand, the decoration layer 40 can further flatten the surface of the light-transmitting member 100, so as to further ensure the aesthetic property of the light-transmitting member 100 and improve the texture of the light-transmitting member 100, on the other hand, the decoration layer 40 allows light sequentially passing through the transparent base layer 10 and the transparent filling layer 30 to pass through, wherein the thickness of the decoration layer 40 is thin without affecting the light passing through the decoration layer 40, thereby ensuring that a clear light transmission effect is observed by a user at the outer side portion 102 defined by the light-transmitting member 100.
Fig. 4A to 4E illustrate a manufacturing process of the light-transmitting member 100 of the present invention.
First, a material with better transparency is selected to form the transparent base layer 10, so as to allow the transparent base layer 10 to have better light transmission effect, and refer to fig. 4A. It is worth mentioning that the material of the transparent base layer 10 may be, but is not limited to, Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), Polystyrene (PS), Polycarbonate (PC) and polydiallyldiglycol carbonate (CR-39).
In addition, the shape of the transparent substrate 10 is not limited in the present invention, for example, in the specific example shown in fig. 4A, the transparent substrate 10 includes a bottom wall 12 and a side wall 13 integrally extending upward from the periphery of the bottom wall 12, wherein the bottom wall 12 may be, but is not limited to, a circular bottom wall, an oval bottom wall, a square bottom wall, a pentagonal bottom wall, and a hexagonal bottom wall. Alternatively, in other examples of the present invention, the transparent base layer 10 may have a flat plate shape.
Next, a light-shielding base layer 2000 is formed on the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10 to allow the light-shielding base layer 2000 to be attached to the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10, referring to fig. 4B. Preferably, the light-shielding base layer 2000 is formed of a material having a good light-reflecting property or a good light-absorbing property, such as, but not limited to, black paint, wherein the black paint can be sprayed on the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10 and the light-shielding base layer 2000 is formed on the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10.
Again, at least one region of the light-shielding basic layer 2000 is removed, so that the light-shielding basic layer 2000 forms the light-shielding layer 20 attached to the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10 and the hollow-out region 21 forming the light-shielding layer 20, wherein a portion of the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10 is exposed to the hollow-out region 21 of the light-shielding layer 20, refer to fig. 4C.
It is understood that the hollow area 21 of the light-shielding layer 20 is formed in the removed area of the light-shielding base layer 2000, and the shape and size of the hollow area 21 of the light-shielding layer 20 correspond to the shape and size of the removed area of the light-shielding base layer 200.
It should be noted that the manner of removing at least one region of the light-shielding base layer 2000 to expose the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10 is not limited in the present invention, for example, at least one region of the light-shielding base layer 2000 may be removed by a laser process to expose the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10 to the hollow region 21 of the light-shielding layer 20.
Next, referring to fig. 4D, the transparent filling layer 30 is formed on the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10, and the transparent filling layer 30 is maintained in the hollow area 21 of the light-shielding layer 20, to allow the transparent filling layer 30 to adhere to the surface of the transparent base layer 10 exposed to the hollowed-out area 21 of the light-shielding layer 20, and thus, on the one hand, light generated at one side of the transparent base layer 10 can be radiated to one side of the light shield layer 20 through the transparent base layer 10 and the transparent filling layer 30 at a time, and the light-shielding layer 20 serves to restrict the shape of a pattern formed by the light radiated through the transparent filling layer 30, and on the other hand, the transparent filling layer 30 can prevent the hollow area 21 of the light-shielding layer 20 from being depressed, thereby subsequently avoiding the problem that the light-transmitting member 100 is uneven at a position corresponding to the hollow area 21 of the light-shielding layer 20.
Preferably, the outer wall of the transparent filling layer 30 and the outer wall of the light shielding layer 20 are flush, for example, in the example of fig. 4D, the outer wall of the transparent filling layer 30 and the outer wall of the light shielding layer 20 are in the same arc, so as to avoid the problem that the light-transmitting member 100 has unevenness at a position corresponding to the hollow area 21 of the light shielding layer 20.
Preferably, the transparent filling layer 30 may spray a transparent paint on the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10 exposed to the hollow area 21 of the light-shielding layer 20 through a spraying process. Due to the characteristics of the paint itself, even if the transparent paint is sprayed on a portion of the surface of the light-shielding layer 20 in the process of spraying the transparent paint on the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10 exposed to the hollow area 21 of the light-shielding layer 20, the flatness of the outer wall of the light-shielding layer 20 and the outer wall of the transparent filling layer 30 is not substantially affected. It can be understood that the accuracy of spraying the transparent paint to the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10 exposed to the hollowed-out area 21 of the light-shielding layer 20 can be adjusted by adjusting the nozzle size, the spraying position, and the spraying speed of the spray gun for spraying the transparent paint, so as to prevent the transparent paint from being sprayed on the outer wall of the light-shielding layer 20 when being sprayed on the surface of the transparent base layer 10 exposed to the hollowed-out area 21 of the light-shielding layer 20.
Next, referring to fig. 4E, the decorative layer 40 is formed on the outer wall of the light-shielding layer 20 and the outer wall of the transparent filling layer 30, to allow the decorative layer 40 to be attached to the outer wall of the light-shielding layer 20 and the outer wall of the transparent filling layer 30, in this way, the decoration layer 40 is allowed to cover the outer wall of the light-shielding layer 20 and the outer wall of the transparent filling layer 30 to make the outer surface of the light-transmitting member 100 have a uniform color, further flatten the surface of the light-transmitting member 100 to ensure the aesthetic property of the light-transmitting member 100 and improve the texture of the light-transmitting member 100, and the decorative layer 40 can be prevented from affecting the light sequentially passing through the transparent base layer 10 and the transparent filling layer 30 as much as possible by controlling the transmittance and color of the decorative layer 40, thereby ensuring that a clear light transmission effect is observed by a user at the outer side portion 102 defined by the light-transmitting member 100.
Preferably, the material of the decoration layer 40 may be white paint, wherein the white paint may be formed on the outer wall of the light shielding layer 20 and the outer wall of the transparent filling layer 30 by a spraying process to form the decoration layer 40.
In another aspect of the present invention, the present invention further provides a method for manufacturing the light-transmitting member 100, wherein the method for manufacturing includes the steps of:
(a) forming the light blocking basic layer 2000 on the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10;
(b) removing at least one region of the light-shielding base layer 2000 to allow the light-shielding base layer 2000 to form the light-shielding layer 20 attached to the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10 and at least one of the hollowed-out regions 21 forming the light-shielding layer 20, wherein a portion of the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10 is exposed to the hollowed-out region 21 of the light-shielding layer 20; and
(c) forming the transparent filling layer 30 on the transparent base layer 10, and the transparent filling layer 30 is retained in the hollow area 21 of the light-shielding layer 20 to obtain the light-transmitting component 100.
Specifically, in the step (b), at least one region of the light-shielding base layer 2000 is removed by a laser method, so that the light-shielding base layer 2000 forms the light-shielding layer 20, and the light-shielding layer 20 forms the hollow region 21 corresponding to the removed region of the light-shielding base layer 2000 to expose the outer wall of the transparent base layer 10.
Preferably, in the step (c), the transparent filling layer 30 is formed on the transparent base layer 10 by spraying, so as to allow the transparent filling layer 30 to adhere to the surface of the transparent base layer 10 exposed to the hollow area 21 of the light-shielding layer 20.
The manufacturing method further comprises the steps of: (d) the decoration layer 40 is formed to be transparent to light on the outer wall of the light shielding layer 20 and the outer wall of the transparent filling layer 30, so that the decoration layer 40 is allowed to adhere to the outer wall of the light shielding layer 20 and the outer wall of the transparent filling layer 30 to form the overall appearance of the light transmitting member 100.
Fig. 5A to 5D show a manufacturing process of the light-transmitting member 100 of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 5A, the transparent base layer 10 is provided, wherein the transparent base layer 10 has at least one of the convex portions 11.
