In this way, the illuminated keyboard 3 can be illuminated when in use, thereby improving the visual perception of the user when using the illuminated keyboard 3. In this embodiment, the flexible circuit board 46 can be a Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC).

於實務上,背光模組34可視實際需求而僅包含有一個發光單元44。也就是說,只要是包含有一個以上之發光單元44的結構設計,均在本創作所保護的範疇內。如第1圖以及第2圖所示,本創作之發光單元44設置複數個按鍵32之一側,也就是說,本創作之背光模組34可為一側光式背光模組。In practice, the backlight module 34 includes only one light emitting unit 44 according to actual needs. That is to say, as long as it is a structural design including more than one light-emitting unit 44, it is within the scope of protection of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the light-emitting unit 44 of the present invention is provided with one side of a plurality of buttons 32. That is to say, the backlight module 34 of the present invention can be a one-side light backlight module.

此外,背光模組34另包含有一導光板48,其設置於底板30下。當發光單元44發光時,導光板48可用來導引發光單元44所發出之光線,以使發光單元44所發出之光線可均勻地散佈,如此背光模組34便可藉由導光板48而較均勻地發光。於實務上,底板30可形成有複數個透光孔301,其分別用來透射由導光板48所穿出之光線,以使發光鍵盤3具有較佳之發光效果,而本創作之透光孔301的數量與位置可不侷限於圖式所繪示,其端視實際需求而定。此外,鍵帽36上亦可形成有一透光部361,其用來透射複數個透光孔301所透射之光線,以使光線可經由透光部361透射至鍵帽36外,進而產 生發光的視覺效果。In addition, the backlight module 34 further includes a light guide plate 48 disposed under the bottom plate 30. When the light-emitting unit 44 is illuminated, the light guide plate 48 can be used to guide the light emitted by the light-emitting unit 44 so that the light emitted by the light-emitting unit 44 can be evenly distributed, so that the backlight module 34 can be compared by the light guide plate 48. Glow evenly. In practice, the bottom plate 30 can be formed with a plurality of light-transmissive holes 301 for transmitting the light that is guided by the light guide plate 48, so that the light-emitting keyboard 3 has a better light-emitting effect, and the light-transmissive hole 301 of the present invention is created. The number and position are not limited to the drawings, and the end depends on actual needs. In addition, the key cap 36 can also be formed with a light transmitting portion 361 for transmitting light transmitted by the plurality of light transmitting holes 301, so that the light can be transmitted to the outside of the key cap 36 via the light transmitting portion 361, thereby producing Glowing visual effects.

如第1圖以及第2圖所示,背光模組34另包含有一反射板50,其設置於導光板48下。當發光單元44發光時,導光板48導引發光單元44所發出之光線。此時,部分之光線係可穿出導光板48而朝反射板50投射,而反射板50便可用來反射由導光板48所穿出之光線,以使光線可較集中地朝底板30投射。如第2圖所示,背光模組34另包含有一遮光板52,其設置於底板30與導光板48之間。當發光單元44發光時,導光板48導引發光單元44所發出之光線。此時,部分之光線係可穿出導光板48而朝遮光板52投射,而遮光板52便可用來遮蓋由導光板48所穿出之光線。As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , the backlight module 34 further includes a reflector 50 disposed under the light guide plate 48 . When the light emitting unit 44 emits light, the light guide plate 48 guides the light emitted by the light emitting unit 44. At this time, part of the light can be projected through the light guide plate 48 and projected toward the reflection plate 50, and the reflection plate 50 can be used to reflect the light that is guided by the light guide plate 48, so that the light can be projected toward the bottom plate 30 more concentratedly. As shown in FIG. 2 , the backlight module 34 further includes a light shielding plate 52 disposed between the bottom plate 30 and the light guide plate 48 . When the light emitting unit 44 emits light, the light guide plate 48 guides the light emitted by the light emitting unit 44. At this time, part of the light can be projected through the light guide plate 48 and projected toward the light shielding plate 52, and the light shielding plate 52 can be used to cover the light that is guided by the light guide plate 48.

換句話說,遮光板52係用來遮蓋由導光板48所穿出且朝遮光板52投射之光線,藉以達到發光鍵盤3之背光模組34於特定部位發光之目的。舉例來說,遮光板52上可形成有對應複數個透光孔301之複數個透光開口521,以使由導光板48所穿出之光線可依序經由遮光板52上之透光開口521、底板30上之透光孔301與鍵帽36上之透光部361而投射至鍵帽36外。In other words, the visor 52 is used to cover the light that is emitted by the light guide plate 48 and projected toward the visor 52, thereby achieving the purpose of illuminating the backlight module 34 of the illuminating keyboard 3 at a specific portion. For example, a plurality of light-transmissive openings 521 corresponding to the plurality of light-transmissive holes 301 may be formed on the light-shielding plate 52, so that the light emitted by the light guide plate 48 can sequentially pass through the light-transmitting openings 521 on the light-shielding plate 52. The light-transmitting hole 301 on the bottom plate 30 and the light-transmitting portion 361 on the key cap 36 are projected outside the key cap 36.

如第2圖所示,發光鍵盤3之電路板40具有一傳輸線路部403,其穿設底板30、導光板48與反射板50。傳輸線路部403用來耦接電路板40與一主機(例如筆記型電腦之主機),以使發光鍵盤3之電路板40可與該主機相互傳遞訊號,藉以執行使用者所欲進行之操 作,例如輸入文字、符號或數字等。除此之外,傳輸線路部403之彎折處形成有一開口405,藉以降低傳輸線路部403之剛性以利傳輸線路部403彎折,因此傳輸線路部403便可於穿過發光鍵盤3之底板30、導光板48與反射板50後進行彎折而耦接於該主機。As shown in FIG. 2, the circuit board 40 of the illuminated keyboard 3 has a transmission line portion 403 which penetrates the bottom plate 30, the light guide plate 48 and the reflection plate 50. The transmission line portion 403 is configured to couple the circuit board 40 and a host (such as a host of a notebook computer) so that the circuit board 40 of the illuminated keyboard 3 can transmit signals to the host to perform operations performed by the user. For example, enter text, symbols or numbers. In addition, an opening 405 is formed in the bend of the transmission line portion 403, thereby reducing the rigidity of the transmission line portion 403 to facilitate the bending of the transmission line portion 403, so that the transmission line portion 403 can pass through the bottom plate of the illuminated keyboard 3. 30. The light guide plate 48 and the reflector 50 are bent and coupled to the host.

請參閱第2圖以及第3圖,第3圖為本創作實施例遮光板52之元件俯視示意圖。如第2圖以及第3圖所示,背光模組34另包含有一遮光結構54,其連接於遮光板52且對應開口405。於此實施例中,遮光結構54與遮光板52可一體成形,但不受此限。舉例來說,遮光結構54亦可為一墊片(mylar),於組裝時,遮光結構54可以膠合的方式連接於遮光板52。至於採用上述何者設計,其端視實際需求而定。Please refer to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 . FIG. 3 is a schematic top view of the components of the light shielding plate 52 of the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 , the backlight module 34 further includes a light shielding structure 54 connected to the light shielding plate 52 and corresponding to the opening 405 . In this embodiment, the light shielding structure 54 and the light shielding plate 52 may be integrally formed, but are not limited thereto. For example, the light shielding structure 54 can also be a mylar. When assembled, the light shielding structure 54 can be glued to the light shielding plate 52. As for which of the above designs is used, it depends on actual needs.

當傳輸線路部403穿過底板30、導光板48與反射板50而耦接於該主機時,傳輸線路部403係可藉由開口405而易於隨該主機之機殼的內部結構彎折。由於背光模組34之遮光結構54可隨傳輸線路部403彎折而貼附於傳輸線路部403,藉以遮蓋傳輸線路部403之開口405(如第2圖所示)。如此一來,背光模組34之遮光結構54便可遮蓋傳輸線路部403之開口405,以避免由導光板48所穿出之光線經由傳輸線路部403之開口405漏出。換句話說,本創作之遮光結構54可防止發光鍵盤3於傳輸線路部403穿過底板30、導光板48與反射板50處的漏光問題,進而達到改善發光鍵盤3的視覺外觀之效果。When the transmission line portion 403 is coupled to the host through the bottom plate 30, the light guide plate 48, and the reflection plate 50, the transmission line portion 403 can be easily bent by the internal structure of the casing of the main body by the opening 405. The light shielding structure 54 of the backlight module 34 can be attached to the transmission line portion 403 as the transmission line portion 403 is bent, thereby covering the opening 405 of the transmission line portion 403 (as shown in FIG. 2). In this way, the light shielding structure 54 of the backlight module 34 can cover the opening 405 of the transmission line portion 403 to prevent the light emitted by the light guide plate 48 from leaking through the opening 405 of the transmission line portion 403. In other words, the light-shielding structure 54 of the present invention can prevent the light leakage problem of the illuminated keyboard 3 on the transmission line portion 403 through the bottom plate 30, the light guide plate 48 and the reflection plate 50, thereby achieving the effect of improving the visual appearance of the illuminated keyboard 3.
