    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a light guide plate for keypad backlight panels, which is mounted at the rear of a keypad having numerals or characters printed thereon for supplying light emitted from a light source mounted at one side of the keypad to the keypad. The light guide plate is made of polycarbonate and is provided at the rear surface thereof with a concave-convex pattern, the density of which is increased as pattern elements of the pattern become more distant from the light source, such that light emitted from the light source is reflected and is uniformly supplied to the keypad, the pattern being formed on the light guide plate by hot stamping, injection molding, or micro blasting. The density of the pattern is adjusted by adjusting the distance between the pattern elements of the pattern or by adjusting the size of the pattern elements of the pattern. Consequently, it is possible to manufacture a keypad module in a slim structure or a curved structure.
