Description

一种导光片及其应用的键盘 技术领域 本发明涉及一种导光片及其应用的键盘,其广泛应用于电子及通 讯产品领域, 如手机键盘、 家用电器键盘等。 背景技术 如图 1所示, 公开了一种手机键盘结构, 其中, 该手机键盘结构 由按键 1' 、 导光片 2, 以及主板 3, 等构成, 该导光片 2, 介于按键 1, 与主板 3, 之间, 起到透光效果; 该主板 3, 上设置有复数个凸状 开关 31, , 而传统导光片 2, 通常由塑胶片材制成, 其上、 下两面呈 光滑平面状, 因此, 上述按键 1, 朝导光片 2, 那面必须设置有逐一 对应键盘主板 3' 上各凸状开关 31, 的凸块 11, , 以便能形之有效 地触动主板 3, 上的凸状开关 31, 。 故若欲组装时, 一方面因该凸块 11, 在隔有导光片 2, 的情形下,找准主板 3, 上对应的凸状开关 3Γ 对位会存在困难, 如此不仅会出现错位现象而导致不良品发生, 同时 也十分耗工时, 生产效率低; 另一方面则传统导光片 2, 的两面光滑 状设计, 给按键 1' 之形状选择有一定局限性, 例如平面状的按键无 法适用, 综上种种因素, 给业内生产带来一定困扰。 发明内容 本发明针对上述现有技术所存在之缺失,主要目的在于提供一种 导光片及其应用的键盘,其中藉由导光片上所形成突点之设计,有助 于键盘的组装, 且又可选择不同形式的按键结构进行配合。
为实现上述之目的, 本发明采取如下技术方案:
一种导光片, 包括一高透光率的塑胶片体, 该塑胶片体的下表面 设置有多个光固性胶体材料形成的突点,而在该塑胶片体的上表面设 置有逐一对应该突点且起导光作用的油墨层。
一种应用上述导光片所制成的键盘,包括按键、导光片以及主板, 该导光片介于 4 建与主板之间,该主板上设置有多个凸状开关,该导 光片包括一高透光率的塑胶片体,其特征在于: 该塑胶片体的上表面 设置有逐一对应键盘主板上各凸状开关的光固性胶体材料形成的突 点,且该突点与凸状开关对位; 而在该塑胶片体的下表面设置有逐一 对应该突点且起导光作用的油墨层。该按键上设置有键帽; 该按键朝 导光片那面为平面状结构。
本发明与现有技术相比, 其优点如下: 由导光片的塑胶片体上设 计突点结构, 使该突点直接可供主板的凸状开关对位, 因此可选择不 同形式的按键结构进行配合, 尤其是适用于底部为平板状的按键; 其 避开了现有技术中由按键的突块与主板的凸状开关进行对位组配所 带来之错位、 耗时等之缺失, 有效地筒化组装工艺, 提高组装效率。 附图说明 图 1是现有技术键盘示意图;
图 2是本实用新型截面示意图;
图 3是本发明键盘之示意图。 具体实施方式 下面结合附图与具体实施方式对本发明作进一步描述。
请参阅图 2所示, 一种导光片, 包括一塑胶片体 10, 该塑胶片 体 10由高透光率的塑胶材料经模具注塑成型或将现成高透光率的塑 胶板材经切割而成, 其中:
该塑胶片体 10的上表面 11设置有多个光固性胶体材料形成的突 点 12 , 该突点 12成形方法可采用先在模具的成型孔中注入光固性胶 体, 然后将塑胶片体 10铺设在该模具的成型孔上方, 经过辊压、 光 固、脱模而成; 在该塑胶片体 10的下表面 13设置有逐一对应该突点 12且起导光作用的油墨层 14, 该油墨层 14可增强塑胶片体 10的导 光性, 其可采用丝印或移印之方式, 在此不加以限制。
如图 3, —种应用上述导光片的键盘, 包括导光片、 ^^ 20以 及主板 30, 该按键 20上均设置有键帽 21 , 其中:
该导光片介于按键 20与主板 30之间, 该主板 30上设置有多个 凸状开关 31 , 该导光片包括一高透光率的塑胶片体 10, 该塑胶片体 10的上表面 11设置复数个由光固性胶体材料形成的突点 12 ,该突点 12是逐一对应主板 30上各凸状开关 31位置进行布置, 且该突点 12 与凸状开关 31各自对位; 在该塑胶片体 10的下表面 13设置有复数 个起导光作用的油墨层 14 , 该油置层 14是逐一对应该突点 12位置 进行布置, 且与上述凸状开关 31接触。该按键 20朝导光片那面为平 面状结构, 进而採压按键 20时, 由按键 20促使导光片的突点 12下 压, 由该突点 12触动主板 30的凸状开关 31实现键盘按压之目的。
当然,按键 20下方也可以设置有逐一对应导光片的突点 12用的 凸块, 使该凸块与其下方的导光板之突点对位, 进而按压按键 .20时, 由该凸块作用于导光片的突点 12后,促使导光片的突点 12触动主板 30的凸状开关 31实现键盘按压之目的。
因此, 本发明设计重点在于由导光片的塑胶片体上设计突点结 构,使该突点直接可供主板的凸状开关对位, 因此可选择不同形式的 按键结构进行配合, 尤其是适用于底部为平板状的按键; 其避开了现 有技术中由按键的突块与主板的凸状开关进行对位组配所带来之错 位、 耗时等之缺失, 有效地简化组装工艺, 提高组装效率。
以上所述,仅是本发明一种导光片及其应用的键盘较隹实施例而 已, 并非对本发明的技术范围作任何限制, 故凡是依据本发明的技术 实质对以上实施例所作的任何细微修改、 等同变化与修饰, 均仍属于 本发明技术方案的范围内。
