Abstract:
A thin illuminated keyboard comprises a plurality of keys, a carrying unit and at least one light emission board. The carrying unit includes a baseboard to hold the keys and at least one light guide element located between the keys and baseboard. The light guide element includes at least one light guide port. The baseboard includes at least one installation port that communicates and incorporates with the light guide port to form at least one installation space. The light emission board is located on one side of the baseboard opposite to the keys and has at least one light source held in the installation space to emit light towards the light guide port, and the light is transmitted via the light guide element to project to the corresponding keys for illumination.
Abstract:
A light-concentrative illuminating keyboard contains a keyboard set and at least one illuminating set. The keyboard set includes plural pressing members depressible to move based on a pressing direction, plural resilient supporting members disposed relative to the pressing members to allow the pressing members to move reciprocately along the pressing direction, and a circuit board to be triggered to generate an instruction signal while the pressing members presses the resilient supporting members individually. The circuit board includes at least one reflecting region at least relative to the resilient supporting member. The illuminating set is disposed in a light guiding space between the pressing members and the circuit board to generate light. The light is transmitted in the light guiding space and reflected by the reflecting region of the circuit board to guide into the pressing member through the resilient supporting member to provide high illumination.
Abstract:
A control method is to generate flickering color-light alteration of an illuminated keyboard which includes a plurality of keys depressed to provide at least one key-in signal, a plurality of backlight units and a control unit. The illuminated keyboard is divided into a plurality of illumination zones according to the backlight units. The control method includes steps of: first, setting multiple different illumination times corresponding to the backlight units through the control unit; next, detecting the key-in signal not being generated over a preset time or detecting the key-in signal matching a working condition to activate the control unit; and sending out a driving signal respectively by the control unit within the illumination time to the corresponding backlight units to generate illumination asynchronously in the illumination zones.
Abstract:
A keyboard with illuminating architecture includes a keyboard portion and a substrate carrying the keyboard portion, wherein the keyboard portion includes a plurality of pressing elements for receiving a pressing force from the user and inter-dependent mechanisms respectively under a force receiving surface of each pressing element for providing a moving stroke of the pressing element following the force direction, and the substrate has an assembling portion for assembling with the other end of the inter-dependent mechanism. Moreover, the surface of the substrate has at least one light guiding groove, which forms a light channel for transmitting light, and at least one inner sidewall of the light guiding groove is a light reflecting surface, so that the light in the light guiding groove is reflected by the light reflecting surface to the keyboard portion, thereby providing the pressing elements the brightness, and reducing whole keyboard thickness and thinning.
Abstract:
An illuminated keyboard with a light transmission channel contains a substrate used to hold a plurality of press units, a circuit board disposed on the substrate and triggered by the press units, and a light shielding unit disposed on the circuit board and having a permeable area and a light impermeable area. The light impermeable area of the light shielding unit and a non-transparent surface of the circuit board form a light transmission channel between the substrate and the plurality of press units. The illuminated keyboard also contains at least one illuminating unit to emit light into the light transmission channel, thus the light can be projected to the plurality of press units through the light permeable area of the light shielding unit.
Abstract:
A button structure of a mouse is provided. The mouse includes a lower housing, an upper housing, and a circuit unit disposed between the upper housing and the lower housing. The circuit unit includes at least one press switch, and the upper housing includes at least one button unit. The mouse is characterized in that, the button unit includes a revealed button cap section, a press section connected to the button cap section and extending towards the press switch, and a wear-resisting element attached to the press section. When the button cap section is pressed to move downwards jointly with the press section, the wear-resisting element abuts against the press switch.
Abstract:
A pellet article forming apparatus includes a bottom mold and a top mold. The bottom mold has at least one forming cavity to hold polymer powder. The forming cavity has a first arched surface at the bottom that has an edge extended to form a first compression surface and an opening to hold a thrust member. The top mold is located above the bottom mold and has a second arched surface opposing the first arched surface. The second arched surface has another edge formed a second compression surface corresponding to the first compression surface. The top mold and the bottom mold are movable against each other to provide a compression force to the polymer powder held in the forming cavity to form a desired pellet article. The pellet article thus formed has a desired genuine spherical surface. Damage of the molds that might otherwise occur due to compression can be prevented.
