  • Publication number: 20100300855
    Abstract: A light guidance illuminating keyboard utilizes plural press-key devices and a base plate having plural through-holes to generate a control signal to an electronic device when a user presses down the press-key devices. A back surface of the base plate is a light guide plate on which is defined into at least one through-hole which forms an independent optical path. A side of the light guide plate is a light emitting element. When the light emitting element produces light, the light is reflected onto the through-holes on the base plate through the light guide plate and penetrates out of the through-holes, such that the press-key devices can manifest various visual effects according to the light produced by the light emitting element.

  • Patent number: 6788470
    Abstract: A light collimating system includes a transparent substrate, a plurality of conic elements and a screen. Each of the conic elements has a relatively narrow light incident side to which the screen is attached and a relatively wide light emitting side attached to the transparent substrate. Each of the conic elements has several segments which are arranged to form a truncated cone with an opening angle that decreases towards the light emitting side. The screen has a plurality of transmission areas covered by the light incident sides of the conic elements. Outside the transmission areas, incoming light is reflected from the screen. Diffuse light entering the conic elements through the transmission areas of the screen is collimated by refraction and total reflection at peripheral surfaces of the conic elements, resulting in a light bundle of narrow angular intensity distribution emanating from the transparent substrate.

  • Patent number: 6719930
    Abstract: A production method of a light guide and a stamper, combining anisotropic etching and isotropic etching. First a plurality of microstructures is formed on a back surface and a front surface of the substrate. By electroforming, rear and front stampers are made from the back and front surfaces of the substrate. Light guides are produced using the rear and front stampers. Anisotropic etching is performed on the front surface of the substrate, forming V-shaped, U-shaped or pyramid like microstructures. Isotropic etching is performed on the back surface of the substrate, forming quadratic, bowl like, oval or semicircular microstructures. If a transparent substrate is used, then after finishing the etching of microstructures, a light source, a reflector, a diffusion sheet and a prism sheet are added, simulating a back light module for performing a test of luminosity, uniformity of light intensity and light emission angle, so that optical properties are known before proceeding with inverse-forming of the stampers.
