Fig. 2 is a schematic top view of a portion of a patterned light-shielding film according to an embodiment of the utility model. Fig. 3 is a schematic top view of a portion of a light guide plate according to an embodiment of the utility model. Referring to fig. 1 to fig. 3, in the present embodiment, the keyboard 10 is a light-emitting keyboard, and includes a backlight module 100, a carrier 11, and a plurality of key structures 12. The carrier 11 is disposed on the backlight module 100, and the plurality of key structures 12 are disposed on the carrier 11. Further, the backlight module 100 includes a light source 110, a reflective film 120, a light guide plate 130 and a patterned light shielding film 140, wherein the light guide plate 130 is disposed on the reflective film 120 and has a first hole 131 for accommodating the light source 110. The light L emitted from the light source 110 can enter the light guide plate 130, and is transmitted in the light guide plate 130, and finally exits from the light exiting surface of the light guide plate 130.
The patterned light shielding film 140 is disposed on the light guide plate 130, and the carrier 11 is disposed on the patterned light shielding film 140. The light guide plate 130 also has a first mounting hole 132, wherein the patterned light shielding film 140 has a second mounting hole 141 corresponding to the first mounting hole 132, and the carrier 11 has a third mounting hole 11a corresponding to the second mounting hole 141. The first, second and third mounting holes 132, 141 and 11a are used for screws to fix the light guide plate 130, the patterned light shielding film 140 and the carrier 11.
Fig. 4A and 4B are schematic partial cross-sectional views of the patterned light-shielding film of fig. 2 along a cross-sectional line I-I, and illustrate two different embodiments. Referring to fig. 1, fig. 2 and fig. 4A, in one embodiment, the patterned light shielding film 140 includes a light transmissive film 1401, a white ink layer 1402 (i.e., a first ink layer) and a black ink layer 1403 (i.e., a second ink layer), wherein the light transmissive film 1401 may be a polyester film, and the light transmissive film 1401 has a first surface 1404 facing the light guide plate 130 and a second surface 1405 opposite to the first surface 1404. The carrier 11 contacts the second surface 1405, wherein the second mounting holes 141 are distributed on the light-transmitting film 1401 and penetrate through the first surface 1404 and the second surface 1405.
Referring to fig. 2 and 4A, a white ink layer 1402 (i.e., a first ink layer) covers a first surface 1404, and a black ink layer 1403 (i.e., a second ink layer) covers a second surface 1405. The black ink layer 1403 (i.e., the second ink layer) may be formed by an annular portion 1406 surrounding the second mounting hole 141, wherein the annular portion 1406 is an annular black ring 1403a formed on the second surface 1405 by the black ink, and an inner edge of the annular black ring 1403a is spaced from an edge of the second mounting hole 141. Since the light-transmitting film 1401 is a transparent film or a translucent film, the light-transmitting film is oriented to the second surface 1405 from the top view, and is sequentially a white ink layer 1402 (i.e., a first ink layer), a black ink layer 1403 (i.e., a second ink layer), and the white ink layer 1402 (i.e., a first ink layer) from the second mounting hole 141 to the outside, and an inner edge of the annular black ring 1403a and an edge of the second mounting hole 141 are separated by the white ink layer 1402 (i.e., the first ink layer), or that is, a part of the white ink layer 1402 (i.e., the first ink layer) falls between an inner edge of the annular black ring 1403a and an edge of the second mounting hole 141. When looking down at the second surface 1405, the white ink layer 1402 (i.e., the first ink layer) covering the first surface 1404 can be seen between the annular black circle 1403a and the second mounting hole 141, such as an annular white circle 1402 a.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 2 and fig. 4B, in another embodiment, a black ink layer 1403 (i.e., a first ink layer) covers a first surface 1404, and a white ink layer 1402 (i.e., a second ink layer) covers a second surface 1405. Further, the annular portion 1406 is a hollow annular groove formed on the white ink layer 1402 (i.e., the second ink layer), wherein the hollow annular groove exposes the black ink layer 1403 (i.e., the first ink layer), and divides the white ink layer 1402 (i.e., the second ink layer) into an annular white ring 1402 a. Since the light-transmitting film 1401 is a transparent film or a translucent film, the black ink layer 1403 (i.e., the first ink layer) exposed to the hollowed-out annular groove forms an annular black ring 1403a and surrounds the annular white ring 1402a when looking down at the second surface 1405. Further, from the second mounting hole 141, the white ink layer 1402 (i.e., the first ink layer or the annular white circle 1402a), the black ink layer 1403 (i.e., the first ink layer or the annular black circle 1403a), and the white ink layer 1402 (i.e., the second ink layer) are arranged in sequence. Further, the annular white ring 1402a surrounds the second mounting hole 141, and an inner edge of the annular white ring 1402a overlaps an edge of the corresponding second mounting hole 141.
Based on the disposition relationship of the patterned light shielding film 140 in any of the above embodiments, the black ink layer 1403 can be used to absorb or shield the light from the light guide plate 130, thereby facilitating the improvement of the light leakage phenomenon occurring in the second mounting hole 141, and further improving the operation experience of the user.
Referring to fig. 1, in the present embodiment, the keyboard 10 further includes a thin film circuit 13, wherein the thin film circuit 13 is disposed on the carrier 11 and located between the plurality of key structures 12 and the carrier 11.

Further, the two interference holes 133 are disposed in parallel along the first direction D1 and fall on a path of the light L transmitted to the first mounting hole 132. The light L passing through the two interference holes 133 generates light loss before the light L passes to reach the first mounting hole 132, thereby contributing to improvement of a light leakage phenomenon occurring at the first mounting hole 132.
In the present embodiment, the length of each interference hole 133 in the second direction D2 perpendicular to the first direction D1 is equal to or greater than the aperture diameter of the first mounting hole 132.
