  • Patent number: 8913013
    Abstract: A keyboard comprises a key module and a backlight module in which the key module comprises a light-transmissive key part and an electric circuit substrate, and the backlight module comprises a light guide plate, a reflection unit and at least one light source. The backlight module is disposed between the key part and the electric circuit substrate. Thus, lights emitted by the light source are projected into the light guide plate from the lateral side of the light guide plate, and the lights are reflected by the reflection unit for directly passing through the light output surface of the light guide plate and the key part.

  • Publication number: 20110286242
    Abstract: A light guide panel (LGP) has a light incident surface for receiving light. The LGP is configured at a side of a display surface of a reflective display panel. Besides, the LGP includes a main body, a first film, and a plurality of circular light guide patterns. The first film is configured on one side surface of the main body away from the display surface. The circular light guide patterns are configured on the first film, so that the light transmitted in the LGP exits and substantially moves toward the display surface. Each of the circular light guide patterns has a center and a circumference. An included angle is between two lines that respectively connect the center to the circumference located at two sides of the center, and the included angle is 140°˜179°.
