Abstract:
A keypad includes a light guide panel, the interior of which light propagates through; at least one key button positioned on the upper surface of the light guide panel; and at least one reflective pattern fixedly positioned with respect to the light guide panel to reflect a part of the light, which propagates through the interior of the light guide panel, towards the key button.
Abstract:
An optical filter includes a body of a polyhedron structure in which a recess having a predetermined depth from one side surface is exposed on a front surface and a rear surface and a multi-layer thin film which is deposited on the front surface of the body to cover an exposed portion of the recess of the body.
Abstract:
A keypad assembly for a portable terminal is disclosed. The keypad assembly for the portable terminal includes a light guide plate which has reflection patterns locally formed on a lower surface of the light guide plate for reflecting a part of light transmitted in the light guide plate toward an upper surface of the light guide plate. The keypad assembly also includes at least one key button seated on the light guide plate, for outputting the light reflected by the reflection patterns out of the keypad assembly, upper and lower cases for containing the light guide plate, a switch substrate seated on a bottom surface of the lower case and having at least one switch, and an extension member which extends from an upper case of the portable terminal toward the switch substrate. The extension member has a reflection filter for reflecting the light exiting from the light guide plate toward the light guide plate back. The reflection filter is formed on an inner surface facing a side surface of the light guide plate.
Abstract:
A keypad assembly including a light guide plate, a keypad, and reflective layers is disclosed. The light guide plate includes reflective patterns that are locally formed on the bottom surface of the light guide plate to reflect a part of light going into the light guide plate to the top surface of the light guide plate. The keypad includes a pad that is in the shape of a box whose bottom is opened by sidewalls and surrounds the remaining portions of the light guide plate except for the bottom surface of the light guide plate and at least one key button placed on the top surface of the pad and outputting light reflected from the reflective patterns to their outside. The reflective layers are formed at the sidewalls of the pad facing the sides of the light guide plate to reflect light irradiated from the sides of the light guide plate back to the sides of the light guide plate.
Abstract:
A keypad assembly includes a keypad having at least one elastic layer and at least one key button on the elastic layer, a waveguide for transmitting and guiding light therethrough, the waveguide being placed below the elastic layer and having at least one reflection pattern to reflect light toward a respective key button, and a switch substrate under the waveguide and having at least one switch corresponding to the respective key button.

Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are provided for correcting an input error in an input apparatus capable of touch inputs of a first touch input scheme and a second touch input scheme. Upon detecting a touch input of the first touch input scheme, an activity corresponding to the detected touch input is executed and activity execution information corresponding to the activity is stored. The activity executed in accordance with the touch input of the first touch input scheme is cancelled, when a touch input of the second touch input scheme occurs before the touch input of the first touch input scheme is released or before a preset timer expires. The first touch input scheme and the second touch input scheme are different schemes.

Abstract:
To provide a rigid digitizer-integrated display module, the display module includes a display panel for forming an image, a digitizer module formed on the bottom side of the display panel to detect electromagnetic type digitizer input, and a non-magnetic metal structure enclosing the bottom sides of the mold frame and the digitizer and the outer periphery of the mold frame.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a light guide member and a keypad assembly including the same. The light guide member includes a light guide plate for guiding light propagated inside, and at least one recess formed in a direction perpendicular to a direction of guidance of light coupled to the inside of the light guide plate so that light guided by the light guide plate is reflected to the light guide plate. The keypad assembly includes a keypad having at least one key button and an elastic sheet fixing the key button, a light guide member positioned beneath the keypad, the light guide member having a light guide plate for guiding light coupled to an inside and at least one recess for reflecting light guided by the light guide plate to the light guide plate, and a switch pad positioned beneath the light guide member so as to establish an electric contact when the key button is pressed.
