Lighting keyboard and backlight module for the same
A backlight module for a lighting keyboard including at least two heat-dissipating keys comprises a reflective layer, a light guide panel and a shielding sheet and has at least two penetration channels. The reflective layer, the light guide panel and the shielding sheet are stacked up and down. The penetration channels symmetrically correspond to the heat-dissipating keys respectively and penetrate the reflective layer, the light guide panel and the shielding sheet. The penetration channels are respectively provided with one light-reducing pattern at their periphery for blocking light. At least two diffusion patterns are arranged adjacent to the light-reducing patterns for guiding light to illuminate the heat-dissipating keys. The light-reducing patterns and the diffusion patterns form at least two heat-reducing optical pattern groups respectively. The heat-reducing optical pattern groups respectively corresponding to the heat-dissipating keys have identical patterns.
1 . A lighting keyboard, comprising:
a support plate having two support plate holes;
at least one heat-dissipating key disposed above the support plate and being vertically movable relative to the support plate;
a key circuit board disposed above the support plate and having two membrane holes;
a lighting board disposed below the support plate and having two lighting board holes; and
at least one light emitting unit disposed on the lighting board and between the two lighting board holes, for illuminating the at least one heat-dissipating key;
wherein the two support plate holes, the two membrane holes and the two lighting board holes overlap one-by-one vertically to form two penetration channels within a keycap projected area underneath the at least one heat-dissipating key.
2 . The lighting keyboard according to claim 1 , wherein the two support plate holes are disposed on opposite sides of the at least one light emitting unit, the two membrane holes are disposed on opposite sides of the at least one light emitting unit, and the two lighting board holes are disposed on opposite sides of the at least one light emitting unit.
3 . The lighting keyboard according to claim 1 , wherein the key circuit board comprises a switch pad between the two membrane holes, and the two support plate holes are disposed on opposite sides of the switch pad.
4 . The lighting keyboard according to claim 3 , wherein the two lighting board holes are disposed on opposite sides of the switch pad.
5 . A lighting keyboard, comprising:
a support plate having at least one support plate hole;
at least one keycap disposed above the support plate and adapted to be vertically movable relative to the support plate;
a key circuit board disposed above the support plate and having at least one membrane hole; and
a backlight module disposed under the support plate, the backlight module having at least one light emitting unit for illuminating the at least one keycap, and further including at least one penetration channel and at least one light-reducing pattern surrounding the at least one penetration channel;
wherein the at least one penetration channel of the backlight module vertically overlaps with the at least one support plate hole and the at least one membrane hole to allow both vertical airflow and the at least one light-reducing pattern to be covered underneath the at least one keycap.
6 . A lighting keyboard, comprising:
a support plate having at least one support plate hole;
at least one heat-dissipating key disposed above the support plate and being vertically movable relative to the support plate;
a key circuit board disposed above the support plate and having at least one membrane hole;
a lighting board disposed below the support plate and having at least one lighting board hole; and
at least one light emitting unit on the lighting board, for illuminating the at least one heat-dissipating key;
wherein the at least one support plate hole, the at least one membrane hole and the at least one lighting board hole overlap one by one vertically to form at least one penetration channel within a keycap projection area underneath the at least one heat-dissipating key.
