電路板1具有一表面10,表面10包含至少一個溝槽100。溝槽100的一端102連通於間隙S,而另一端104連通於外部。藉此,表面10與外擋塊5之間具有溝槽100,溝槽100作為間隙S與外部環境相連通的逃氣結構。The
在一些實施例中,電路板1為可撓性電路板(Flexible Printed Circuit Board);舉例而言,電路板為玻璃纖維(FR4/FR5/FRP)印刷電路板。In some embodiments, the
發光組件2包括一導光板20以及一發光元件組22。導光板20位於表面10上。導光板20具有一出光頂面200、一導光底面202、一入光側面204以及一微結構206。出光頂面200與導光底面202相對配置,入光側面204兩端分別連接於出光頂面200與導光底面202,且微結構206位於導光底面202,而對應於出光頂面200。The light-emitting
發光元件組22包括多個發光二極體元件,且多個發光二極體元件電性連接電路板1。發光元件組22被驅動時發出光線L,使光線L進入導光板20。舉例而言,電路板1包含一發光驅動電路,電性連接發光元件組22,且發光驅動電路提供一驅動電流以點亮發光元件組22。於此,發光元件組22位於導光板20之入光側面204,朝導光板20發出光線L,使光線L由入光側面204進入導光板20,在遇到導光板20邊界時產生全反射,以提高光利用率。同時,導光板20導引光線L至微結構206散射以產生預定圖樣,所述預定圖樣可以是例如但不限於:包含棋盤式格線的數字鍵盤或字符界面、用於調控音量大小的視覺化圖像等,可供使用者從接觸片3外觀察並操作光電模組。The light-emitting
接觸片3位於出光頂面200的上方,且接觸片3用以供使用者觸碰,且光線L穿出接觸片3,供使用者目視。接觸片3的下表面具有一半透光薄膜30,且半透光薄膜30面對出光頂面200。在一些實施例中,接觸片3之表面經過光滑化處理或/及硬化處理,俾利使用者觸碰及/或提高耐磨性。在一些實施例中,接觸片3之材質可以是但不限於透明或半透明材質,例如但不限於玻璃或聚酯薄膜(Mylar)等膜片。The
遮光結構4位於出光頂面200的上方或接觸片3的下方。遮光結構4具有一開口40,且開口40對應微結構206。藉此,光電模組可通過開口40顯示前述預定圖樣,並利用遮光結構4避免漏光現象。在一些實施例中,遮光結構4可為不透光的遮光片,僅允許光線L自開口40通過遮光片。在其他實施例中,遮光結構可為一遮光薄膜,透過印刷/塗布製程形成於接觸片3的下表面,更節省整體疊層空間。The light-shielding
外擋塊5位於導光板20之外周緣,且位於接觸片3與電路板1之間。舉例而言,外擋塊5為環狀結構且圍繞於導光板20的四周,藉此,外擋塊5可供防止發光元件組22所發出的光線L外洩,進而避免漏光現象。在一些實施例中,外擋塊5之材質可以是不透光或吸光的塑膠,例如但不限於:聚碳酸酯(Polycarbonate, PC)。於此,位於表面10與外擋塊5之間的溝槽100,作為間隙S與環境大氣相連通的逃氣結構,有效避免外擋塊5內部形成氣密狀態,助於改善前述信賴度問題。The
依據上述結構,光電模組具有兩端分別連通於內、外部環境氣體的逃氣結構。逃氣結構使光電模組的內部氣壓與外部氣壓相互連通而達成平衡或近似,以避免光電模組內部呈氣密狀態而與外部氣壓不同。倘若內、外氣壓不同將導致觸控發光模組的內部構件因空氣膨脹而受損失效,透過逃氣結構可提高光電模組的產品信賴度。同時,光電模組在壓力平衡或相似之大氣壓力下進行觸控感測,可得到較準確的感測結果。倘若在氣密狀態進行觸控感測將有所阻礙,透過逃氣結構將有助於提升光電模組的準確性及靈敏度。According to the above structure, the optoelectronic module has an air escape structure whose two ends are respectively connected to the internal and external ambient air. The air escape structure allows the internal air pressure of the photoelectric module and the external air pressure to communicate with each other to achieve a balance or approximation, so as to prevent the photoelectric module from being airtight and different from the external air pressure. If the internal and external air pressures are different, the internal components of the touch light emitting module will be damaged due to air expansion, and the product reliability of the optoelectronic module can be improved through the air escape structure. At the same time, the optoelectronic module performs touch sensing under pressure balance or similar atmospheric pressure to obtain more accurate sensing results. If touch sensing in an airtight state will be hindered, the air escape structure will help improve the accuracy and sensitivity of the optoelectronic module.
請一併參照圖1及圖2,在一些實施例中,電路板1的表面10還包含一線路層12,線路層12具有凹凸的佈線結構,從而線路層12形成至少一個凹凸狀的溝槽100。1 and 2 together, in some embodiments, the surface 10 of the
在一些實施例中,光電模組的逃氣結構位於外擋塊5本體,具體而言,外擋塊5可透過穿孔及/或刀縫處理來讓空氣排出。In some embodiments, the air escape structure of the optoelectronic module is located in the body of the
請一併參照圖1及圖4,本發明另一實施例之一種光電模組包括一電路板1、一發光組件2、一接觸片3、一遮光結構4以及一外擋塊5。其中,外擋塊5具有一內側面50、一外側面52以及一通道54。內側面50面對導光板20,外側面52與內側面50相對配置,且通道54連通於內側面50及外側面52,其中發光元件組22位於外擋塊5與導光板20間之間隙S,且外擋塊5的通道54連通間隙S。藉此,通道54的一端連通於間隙S而另一端外露於外擋塊5之外,通道54作為間隙S與環境大氣相連通的逃氣結構,有效避免外擋塊5內部形成氣密狀態,助於克服前述信賴度問題。在其他實施例中,電路板1的表面10是平整的表面,光電模組透過外擋塊5的通道54作為逃氣結構,仍可有效避免外擋塊5內部形成氣密狀態,供內部空氣排除。1 and 4 together, a photoelectric module according to another embodiment of the present invention includes a
在一些實施例中,通道54位於發光元件組22相反於入光側面204的一背側,藉此,外擋塊5的逃氣結構是設於整體模組中不易漏光處。舉例而言,外擋塊5具有多個通道54,該些通道54位於各個發光二極體元件的發光面的正後方,如圖4所示;或者,該些通道54位於相鄰二個發光二極體元件之間,如圖5所示,但不限於上述實施態樣。In some embodiments, the
請繼續參照圖5,繪示一些實施例之外擋塊5的俯視示意圖,在此實施例中,外擋塊5的各個通道54具有一轉折段540,轉折段540可為閃電狀、鋸齒狀、圓弧狀等非直線幾何型態,藉由通道54的轉折段540遮蔽通道54中至少部分之光線L,避免外擋塊5內的光線L直線穿越通道54而產生漏光現象。在一示範例中,各個通道54的兩端還具有錯位設計,詳言之,如圖5所示,沿鉛垂方向自外擋塊5外觀察,通道54的兩端彼此不共線,亦即,通道54之一端正投影在外擋塊5上的位置與另一端正投影在外擋塊5上的位置彼此至少一部分不重疊,更可避免光線L直線穿越通道54。Please continue to refer to FIG. 5, which shows a schematic top view of the

FIG. 6B is a schematic top perspective view of the adhesive layer of the embodiment shown in FIG. 6A. Fig. 7 is a partial schematic side view of a contact sheet according to some embodiments of the present invention.
請一併參照圖6A、圖6B及圖7,在至少一實施例中,光電模組更包括一黏著層6。黏著層6可位於導光板20之出光頂面200、導光底面202及其組合,藉此與遮光結構4或/及電路板1緊密貼合。Please refer to FIGS. 6A, 6B and 7 together. In at least one embodiment, the optoelectronic module further includes an
在一些實施例中,黏著層6包含相鄰的黏著區60與讓位區62,且讓位區62連通於間隙S,藉此,黏著層6內含的氣泡/空氣可透過間隙S與前述例如溝槽100及通道54等排氣結構,與外部氣壓達成平衡或相近似,具有諸多優點及功效已如前述。In some embodiments, the
在一些實施例中,黏著層6可為但不限於具有不透光材質或吸光材質的水膠層。由於光線L穿透黏著層6會產生類似毛玻璃的光學現象,目視效果不佳。因此,黏著層6的布局設計需考量發光區A1與非發光區A2的分布位置。在一示範例中,黏著區60對應於非發光區A2,而讓位區62對應於發光區A1,於此,黏著區60相對導光板20之正投影與微結構206不相重疊。In some embodiments, the
請參照圖7,在一些實施例中,接觸片3具有半透光薄膜30以及第一不透光薄膜32,從而形成多層膜結構。Referring to FIG. 7, in some embodiments, the
半透光薄膜30位於接觸片3的下表面,並面對出光頂面200。進一步言,接觸片3具有發光區A1與非發光區A2,其中,發光區A1對應於微結構206,亦即,發光區A1相對於導光板20之正投影大致上重疊於微結構206,而非發光區A2是指發光區A1以外的區域。在一示範例中,半透光薄膜30可以是在接觸片3底面印刷/塗佈半透明油墨所形成,分布區域為整面的接觸片3。其中,半透明油墨的透明度約為1~3%。The
第一不透光薄膜32位於半透光薄膜30與導光板20之間,且第一不透光薄膜32具有一第一透光開口320,進一步言,第一不透光薄膜32具有第一透光開口320及第一透光開口320之外的膜體,分別對應於前述發光區A1及非發光區A2,其中,第一透光開口320對應於微結構206,亦即,第一透光開口320相對於導光板20之正投影大致上重疊於微結構206,且第一不透光薄膜32的膜體用於屏蔽來自導光板20的光線L,使非發光區A2下方的光線L幾乎不穿透接觸片3。在一示範例中,第一不透光薄膜32可以是在半透光薄膜30底面印刷/塗佈不透明油墨所形成,分布區域位於非發光區A2。The first
依據上述多層膜結構,從接觸片3的上方俯視,當發光元件組22發光時,由導光板20出射的光線L,若行進至對應於非發光區A2的第一不透光薄膜32,則光線L會被阻擋/吸收;而若行進至對應於發光區A1的半透光薄膜30,則有至少部分之光線L能穿透出半透光薄膜30及接觸片3,可供使用者由上觀察這些光線L所產生的預定圖樣。According to the above-mentioned multilayer film structure, when viewed from above the
然而,當發光元件組22不發光時,在發光區A1的外觀顯色效果,將是由半透光薄膜30所決定,而非發光區A2的外觀顯色效果,則是由半透光薄膜30及第一不透光薄膜32所合併決定。此時,雖然第一不透光薄膜32的不透明油墨的顯色效果仍然存在,但事實上幾乎微乎其微,換言之,發光區A1與非發光區A2雖然具有不同膜層結構,但色差的影響幾乎肉眼無法識別而可忽略。However, when the light-emitting
詳細而言,半透光薄膜30的半透明油墨的透明度約為1~3%,表示光線穿過半透明油墨一次,將只剩下1~3%強度,當外界的環境光線M在非發光區A2向下通過接觸片3並穿透半透光薄膜30,並在半透光薄膜30與第一不透光薄膜32間之介面被向上反射,接著再次進入半透光薄膜30,而最終抵達人眼,此際,第一不透光薄膜32的不透明油墨的顯色效果僅有0.01%~0.09%強度,則發光區A1與非發光區A2之間的色差幾乎難以肉眼識別。In detail, the transparency of the translucent ink of the
請一併參照圖6A及圖7,在一些實施例中,發光組件2還包括一吸光片7。吸光片7位於電路板1與導光板20之間。在一示範例中,吸光片7可以是由反射片的上表面印刷/塗佈不透明油墨改良而成,分布區域對應於發光區A1,其中所述不透明油墨可為黑色不透明油墨。藉此,從接觸片3的上方俯視,當發光元件組22不發光時,外界的環境光線M在發光區A1向下通過接觸片3並穿透半透光薄膜30,到達吸光片7的不透明油墨後,僅有少許的環境光線M被向上反射,接著再次進入半透光薄膜30,而最終抵達人眼,此際,環境光線M在發光區A1的吸光層的不透明油墨的顯色效果僅有0.01%~0.09%強度。另一方面,環境光線M在非發光區A2的第一不透光薄膜32的不透明油墨的顯色效果亦僅有0.01%~0.09%強度,已如前述,從而發光區A1與非發光區A2在視覺上產生相同的顯色效果,則發光區A1與非發光區A2之間的色差幾乎難以肉眼識別。Please refer to FIGS. 6A and 7 together. In some embodiments, the light-emitting
在一些實施例中,接觸片3另具有一反射薄膜34。反射薄膜34位於第一不透光薄膜32與導光板20之間。反射薄膜34具有一第二透光開口340及第二透光開口340之外的膜體,分別對應於前述發光區A1及非發光區A2,其中,第二透光開口340對應於微結構206。在一示範例中,反射薄膜34可以是在第一不透光薄膜32底面印刷/塗佈不透明油墨所形成,分布區域位於非發光區A2。在一示範例中,第二透光開口340之尺寸相較微結構206之尺寸向外擴增一放大量,且放大量正比於一預定值,其中預定值可以是但不限於製造公差。具體而言,預定值包含但不限於油墨印刷的位移公差、漲縮公差、元件間的組裝公差、及外型裁切公差。藉此,反射薄膜34將來自導光板20的光線L反射回導光板20以重複利用,使導光板20的亮度最佳化,並有效提高導光板20的光利用率。In some embodiments, the
圖8A為依據本發明一些實施例之光電模組的局部前視示意圖。圖8B為圖8A所示實施例之右側視示意圖。FIG. 8A is a schematic partial front view of an optoelectronic module according to some embodiments of the present invention. Fig. 8B is a schematic right side view of the embodiment shown in Fig. 8A.
請一併參照圖8A及圖8B,在一些實施例中,電路板1另具有至少一貫孔14。舉例而言,貫孔14位於如圖4所示之電路板1表面10上。貫孔14之一端連通於電路板1上方的間隙S,且另一端連通於電路板1下表面或側表面,以外露於電路板1之外。藉此,間隙S透過貫孔14與光電模組外部環境相連通,亦即貫孔14作為逃氣結構,可供光電模組的內部氣壓與外部氣壓達成平衡或近似,以避免光電模組內部呈氣密狀態而與外部氣壓不同。Please refer to FIGS. 8A and 8B together. In some embodiments, the
在一些實施例中,發光組件2還包括一吸光片7。吸光片7位於電路板1與導光板20之間。吸光片7另具有至少一吸光通道70,如圖8A及8B所例示,吸光通道70之一端連通於間隙S,且另一端連通於吸光片7之外側面,以外露於吸光片7之外。藉此,間隙S透過吸光通道70與光電模組外部環境相連通,亦即吸光通道70作為逃氣結構,可供光電模組的內部氣壓與外部氣壓達成平衡或近似,以避免光電模組內部呈氣密狀態而與外部氣壓不同。在至少一實施例中,吸光通道70具有一吸光轉折段,吸光轉折段可為閃電狀、鋸齒狀、圓弧狀等非直線幾何型態,藉由吸光通道70的吸光轉折段遮蔽吸光通道70中至少部分之光線L,避免內部的光線L直線穿越吸光通道70而產生漏光現象。在一示範例中,各個吸光通道70的兩端還具有錯位設計,詳言之,吸光通道70之一端相對吸光片7的正投影與另一端相對吸光片7的正投影彼此至少一部分不重疊,更可避免光線L直線穿越吸光通道70。In some embodiments, the light-emitting
綜合上述,依據一些實施例,光電模組具有兩端分別連通於內、外部環境的逃氣結構。逃氣結構使光電模組的內部氣壓與外部氣壓達成平衡或近似,以避免光電模組的內部構件因空氣膨脹而受損失效,透過逃氣結構可提高光電模組的產品信賴度。同時,光電模組在壓力平衡或相似之大氣壓力下進行觸控感測,可得到較準確的感測結果,有助於提升光電模組的準確性及靈敏度。另一方面,光電模組利用接觸片3下表面的多層膜結構,在發光元件組22不發光時,發光區A1與非發光區A2之間的色差幾乎難以肉眼識別。甚至在一些實施例中,發光區A1與非發光區A2在發光元件組22不發光時,具有相同的顯色效果。因此,光電模組有效避免從上方俯視發光區A1與非發光區A2之間的色差問題,改善產品設計質感不佳的視覺效果。In summary, according to some embodiments, the optoelectronic module has an air escape structure whose two ends are respectively connected to the internal and external environments. The air escape structure balances or approximates the internal air pressure of the optoelectronic module with the external air pressure, so as to prevent the internal components of the optoelectronic module from being damaged due to air expansion. The air escape structure can improve the product reliability of the optoelectronic module. At the same time, the optoelectronic module performs touch sensing under pressure balance or similar atmospheric pressure to obtain more accurate sensing results, which helps to improve the accuracy and sensitivity of the optoelectronic module. On the other hand, the photoelectric module utilizes the multilayer film structure on the lower surface of the
