A flow chart of the method for manufacturing the key cap, and FIG. 2 is a schematic view of the process with the first drawing. For convenience of explanation, FIGS. 2(A) to (F) are presented in a cross-sectional view and a top view.

首先,執行步驟S10,提供透光鍵帽1,如第2圖(A)所示。於此實施例中,透光鍵帽1包含透光鍵帽主體12、第一透光層14、第二透光層16、不透光噴漆層18,以及保護層20,其中第一透光層14、第二透光層16,以及不透光噴漆層18之顏色係彼此相異以達到透光鍵帽1可呈現不同顏色的目的,至於選用何種顏色,其端視透光鍵帽1之實際應用而定。First, step S10 is performed to provide the light-transmitting keycap 1, as shown in Fig. 2(A). 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.

接著,執行步驟S12以及S14,對透光鍵帽主體12進行印刷製程以形成第一透光層14(如方形,但不以此為限)於透光鍵帽主體12上,並對透光鍵帽主體12進行噴漆製程以形成第二透光層16於透光鍵帽主體12以及第一透光層14上,如第2圖(B)以及第2圖(C)所示,其中透光鍵帽主體12係較佳地為由透明材質所組成,因此就會需要在透光鍵帽主體12上形成第二透光層16以產生擴散膜聚光的功效,藉以防止光線在通過透光鍵帽主體12時會出現散射而影響透光鍵帽1之發光效果的情況發生。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.

接著,執行步驟S16,對透光鍵帽主體12進行噴漆製程以形成不透光噴漆層18於第二透光層16,如第2圖(D)所示,藉此,不透光噴漆層18可覆蓋透光鍵帽主體12之四周以防止漏光。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.

最後,執行步驟S18以及S20,在不透光噴漆層18對應第一透光層14之位置上形成第一透光圖案22以顯露出第二透光層16對應第一透光層14之部分,並且於不透光噴漆層18不對應第一透光層14之位置上形成第二透光圖案24以顯露出第二透光層16不對應第一透光層14之部分,如第2圖(E)所示,更詳細地說,可利用雷射對透光鍵帽1進行雷射雕刻製程,以於 不透光噴漆層18上分別形成第一透光圖案22以及第二透光圖案24,其中第一透光圖案22(如第2圖所示之注音符號ㄇ)以及第二透光圖案24(如第2圖所示之英文字母A)為可供使用者辨識之文字或符號。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.

在實際應用中,可在不透光噴漆層18上形成保護層20,並填補第一透光圖案22與第二透光圖案24,保護層20具有平坦的上表面,如第2圖(F)所示。在此實施例中,保護層20較佳地以紫外線固化方式形成於不透光噴漆層18上,藉以防止不透光噴漆層18上之第一透光圖案22以及第二透光圖案24在長時間的使用下被磨損。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 this embodiment, the protective layer 20 is preferably formed on the opaque paint layer 18 in an ultraviolet curing manner, thereby preventing the first light transmissive pattern 22 and the second light transmissive pattern 24 on the opaque paint layer 18 from being It is worn out under prolonged use.

需注意的是,在此實施例中,如第2圖(A)以及第2圖(F)所示,透光鍵帽主體12上表面具有第一區域13與第二區域15,第一區域13與第二區域15沒有交集,第一透光層14覆蓋第一區域13,但未延伸到第二區域15,而第二透光層16則是覆蓋第二區域15且延伸到第一透光層14上方,其中第二區域15之面積係大於第一區域13之面積,第二透光圖案24係大於第一透光圖案22,且透光鍵帽主體12之上表面中心C係位於第二區域15內,而第二透光圖案24和透光鍵帽主體12之上表面中心C之距離係小於第一透光圖案22和透光鍵帽主體12之上表面中心C之距離。另外,由第2圖(F)可知,第一透光圖案22形成於第一區域13內,第二透光圖案24形成於第二區域15內,且第一透光圖案22與第二透光圖案24均只貫穿不透光噴漆層18以暴露出第二透光層16,藉此,當光源自透光鍵帽主體12下方發射光線穿過透光鍵帽主體12時,第一透光層14之顏色和第二透光層16之顏色會共同影響第一透光圖案22之顏色,第二透光層16之顏色影響第二透光圖案24之顏色。It should be noted that, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2(A) and FIG. 2(F), the upper surface of the transparent keycap main body 12 has a first region 13 and a second region 15, and the first region 13 does not intersect with the second region 15, the first light transmissive layer 14 covers the first region 13, but does not extend to the second region 15, and the second light transmissive layer 16 covers the second region 15 and extends to the first through Above the light layer 14, wherein the area of the second area 15 is larger than the area of the first area 13, the second light transmission pattern 24 is larger than the first light transmission pattern 22, and the center C of the upper surface of the transparent keycap body 12 is located The distance between the second light-transmissive pattern 24 and the center C of the upper surface of the light-transmitting keycap main body 12 is smaller than the distance between the first light-transmitting pattern 22 and the center C of the upper surface of the light-transmitting keycap main body 12. 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.

透過上述設計,若是在配置有透光鍵帽1之發光鍵盤未開啟背光 裝置之光源的情況下,由於沒有光線穿透第一透光層14以及第二透光層16,因此,使用者就會觀看到透光鍵帽1上之第一透光圖案22以及第二透光圖案24均呈現第二透光層16之顏色。另一方面,若是在配置有透光鍵帽1之發光鍵盤開啟背光裝置之光源以提供光線的情況下,由於光線會分別穿透經由第一透光圖案22所顯露出來之第二透光層16對應第一透光層14之部分以及穿透經由第二透光圖案24所顯露出來之第二透光層16不對應第一透光層14之部分,因此,使用者就會觀看到透光鍵帽1上之第一透光圖案22呈現第一透光層14之顏色與第二透光層16之顏色混光的顏色以及透光鍵帽1上之第二透光圖案24呈現第二透光層14之顏色,從而產生透光鍵帽1呈現雙色圖案之效果。需注意的是,若是第二透光層16採用顏色為白色之設計,則第一透光圖案22所呈現之第一透光層14之顏色與第二透光層16之顏色混光的顏色就會與第一透光層14之顏色相同。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.

本發明之透光鍵帽在圖案成形設計上係可不限於上述實施例,請參閱第3圖以及第4圖,第3圖為根據本發明另一實施例所提出之鍵帽製造方法的流程圖,第4圖為搭配第3圖的製程示意圖。此實施例(如第4圖所示)與上述實施例(如第2圖所示)的主要差異在於第一透光圖案之成形方式,更詳細地說,如第4圖(E)所示,在不透光噴漆層18與第二透光層16對應第一透光層14之位置上形成第一透光圖案22(如利用雷射雕刻製程等)以顯露出第一透光層14,藉此,使用者就會觀看到透光鍵帽1’上之第一透光圖案22以及第二透光圖案24分別呈現第一透光層14以及第二透光層16之顏色,從而產生透光鍵帽1’呈現雙色圖案之效果。需說明的是,第3圖中的步驟S30、S32、S34、S36、S40與第1圖中的S10、S12、S14、S16、S20大致相同,且第4圖中與第2圖中所示相同標號的元件,其作用原理大致相同,於此不再贅述。The light-transmissive keycap of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment in the pattern forming design. Please refer to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, and FIG. 3 is a flowchart of a method for manufacturing a key cap according to another embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of the process with the third figure.
