In this embodiment, the light-transmitting keycap 1 includes a light-transmitting keycap body 12, a first light-transmitting layer 14, a second light-transmitting layer 16, an opaque paint layer 18, and a protective layer 20, wherein the first light-transmitting layer The color of the layer 14, the second light transmissive layer 16, and the opaque paint layer 18 are different from each other to achieve the purpose that the light-transmitting keycap 1 can exhibit different colors, and as to which color is selected, the end light-transmitting keycap 1 depending on the actual application.

Then, steps S12 and S14 are performed to perform a printing process on the transparent keycap main body 12 to form a first light transmissive layer 14 (such as a square, but not limited thereto) on the transparent keycap main body 12, and to transmit light. The key cap body 12 performs a painting process to form the second light transmissive layer 16 on the transparent keycap main body 12 and the first light transmissive layer 14, as shown in FIG. 2(B) and FIG. 2(C), wherein The light key cap body 12 is preferably made of a transparent material, so that it is necessary to form the second light transmissive layer 16 on the transparent keycap main body 12 to produce a diffusing film concentrating effect, thereby preventing the light from passing through. When the light key cap main body 12 is scattered, the light-emitting effect of the light-transmitting keycap 1 occurs.

Then, step S16 is performed to perform a painting process on the transparent keycap main body 12 to form the opaque paint layer 18 on the second light transmissive layer 16, as shown in FIG. 2(D), thereby opaque paint layer 18 can cover the periphery of the transparent keycap body 12 to prevent light leakage.

Finally, steps S18 and S20 are performed to form a first light transmissive pattern 22 at a position corresponding to the first light transmissive layer 14 of the opaque paint layer 18 to expose a portion of the second light transmissive layer 16 corresponding to the first light transmissive layer 14. And forming a second light transmissive pattern 24 at a position where the opaque paint layer 18 does not correspond to the first light transmissive layer 14 to expose a portion of the second light transmissive layer 16 that does not correspond to the first light transmissive layer 14, such as the second As shown in FIG. (E), in more detail, the laser engraving process can be performed on the light-transmitting keycap 1 by using a laser. The first light transmissive pattern 22 and the second light transmissive pattern 24 are respectively formed on the opaque paint layer 18, wherein the first light transmissive pattern 22 (such as the phonetic symbol 第 shown in FIG. 2) and the second transparent pattern 24 ( The English letter A) shown in Figure 2 is a text or symbol that can be recognized by the user.

In a practical application, the protective layer 20 may be formed on the opaque paint layer 18 and fill the first light-transmissive pattern 22 and the second light-transmitting pattern 24, and the protective layer 20 has a flat upper surface, as shown in FIG. 2 (F) ) shown.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 2F, the first light transmissive pattern 22 is formed in the first region 13, the second light transmissive pattern 24 is formed in the second region 15, and the first transparent pattern 22 and the second transparent pattern 22 are formed. The light pattern 24 only penetrates the opaque paint layer 18 to expose the second light-transmissive layer 16, whereby when the light source emits light from the light-transmitting keycap main body 12 through the light-transmitting keycap main body 12, the first through The color of the light layer 14 and the color of the second light transmissive layer 16 together affect the color of the first light transmissive pattern 22, and the color of the second light transmissive layer 16 affects the color of the second light transmissive pattern 24.

Through the above design, if the illuminated keyboard with the light-transmitting keycap 1 is not turned on, the backlight is not turned on. In the case of the light source of the device, since no light penetrates the first light transmissive layer 14 and the second light transmissive layer 16, the user can see the first light transmissive pattern 22 and the second on the transparent keycap 1 The light transmissive patterns 24 each exhibit the color of the second light transmissive layer 16. On the other hand, if the light source provided with the light-transmitting keycap 1 turns on the light source of the backlight device to provide light, the light penetrates through the second light-transmitting layer exposed through the first light-transmitting pattern 22, respectively. The portion corresponding to the first light transmissive layer 14 and the second light transmissive layer 16 exposed through the second light transmissive pattern 24 do not correspond to the portion of the first light transmissive layer 14, so that the user can see through The first light transmissive pattern 22 on the light key cap 1 exhibits a color of the color of the first light transmissive layer 14 mixed with the color of the second light transmissive layer 16 and a second light transmissive pattern 24 on the transparent keycap 1 The color of the two light transmissive layers 14 produces an effect that the light transmissive keycap 1 exhibits a two-color pattern. It should be noted that, if the second light transmissive layer 16 is designed in a white color, the color of the first light transmissive layer 14 and the color of the second light transmissive layer 16 are mixed. It will be the same color as the first light transmissive layer 14.
