[0042] Hereinafter, the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings. Although the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments set forth herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided so that the present disclosure can be more thoroughly understood and the scope of the present disclosure can be completely conveyed to those skilled in the art.

[0043] It should be noted that unless otherwise specified, the technical terms or scientific terms used in the present application should have the ordinary meanings understood by those skilled in the art to which the present application belongs.

[0044] The drawings included in the specification and constituting a part of the specification show the embodiments of the present application, and together with the general description of the present application given above and the detailed description of the embodiments given below are used to explain the principles of the present application.

[0045] It should also be understood that although the present application has been described with reference to some specific examples, those skilled in the art can surely implement many other equivalent forms of the present application, which have the features as described in the claims and thus are all within the protection scope defined hereby.

[0046] When combined with the accompanying drawings, the above and other aspects, features and advantages of the present application will become more obvious in view of the following detailed description.

[0047] Specific embodiments of the present application will be described hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings; however, it should be understood that the described embodiments are only examples of the present application, which can be implemented in various ways. Well-known and / or repetitive functions and structures are not described in detail to avoid obscuring the present application with unnecessary or redundant details. Therefore, the specific structural and functional details claimed herein are not intended to be limiting, but are only used as a basis and representative basis for the claims to teach those skilled in the art to use the present application in substantially any suitable detailed structure in various ways.

[0048] This specification may use the phrase "in one embodiment", "in another embodiment", "in yet another embodiment" or "in other embodiments", which may all refer to one or more of the same or different embodiments according to the present application.

[0049] The transparent keycap is designed by atomization, which can make the keycap have a certain light transmittance and haze, so that the structure under the keycap presents a hazy visual effect. However, the inventors of the present application have noticed that the current visual effect of the keycap is uneven, which affects the experience during use.

[0050] After in-depth research, the inventors found that the current atomization effect is formed by the rough structure on the bottom surface of the transparent keycap. However, during use, since light may be reflected inside the keycap to form reflection points, it will cause the uneven visual effect of the keycap.

[0051] To solve the problem of uneven visual effect caused by light reflection inside the keycap, the present application provides a keycap, and a target layer 2 is arranged on the outer top surface of the keycap body 1, so that light is scattered where it is close to the user's line of sight, so that the user can obtain a more uniform visual effect.

[0052] Embodiment 1

[0053] As Figures 1 - 8 shown, Embodiment 1 of the present application provides a keycap, including:

[0054] A body 1 that meets the light transmission condition;

[0055] A target layer 2 is arranged on the outer top surface of the body 1, and the target layer 2 can cause the light passing through the body 1 to be scattered to form an atomization effect.

[0056] The keycap of Embodiment 1 of the present application can be applied to keyboards, mobile communication devices, household appliances, industrial automation devices, medical devices, and so on.

[0057] The body 1 is the main part of the keycap, which provides the physical shape and structural support of the keycap. The body 1 can meet the light-transmitting conditions as a whole. Or, the target area of the body 1 can meet the light-transmitting conditions, so that the target area presents a semi-hidden and semi-transparent visual effect, and the light transmittance of the other areas of the body 1 except the target area can be less than that of the target area (for example, the light transmittance of the other areas of the body 1 can be 0%); during the production process, different parts of the body 1 can be manufactured by using materials with different light transmittances, or surface coating treatment can be performed on the other areas of the body 1 to reduce the light transmittance of this area.

[0058] The target area of the body 1 can be all or part of the area in the body 1, and the light transmittance of the target area of the body is greater than 0%. The body 1 can be injection-molded with a base material, and the base material can be selected from fully transparent materials or semi-transparent materials; when a fully transparent material is selected, a fully transparent body 1 can be formed to improve the uniformity of the light transmittance of the body 1 with uneven thickness. The fully transparent material can be selected from polycarbonate, polyethylene terephthalate, and so on. The semi-transparent material can be selected from polypropylene, polyethylene, etc.

[0059] The keycap can also include: a second pigment powder 5, which is distributed in the body 1 to form a preset color. The second pigment powder 5 can be selected from organic pigments (such as azo pigments, phthalocyanine pigments, etc.), inorganic pigments (titanium dioxide, iron oxide pigments, etc.), and so on. The second pigment powder 5 can use a single pigment powder; or, the second pigment powder 5 can contain multiple pigment powders, and the precise control of the color can be achieved by adjusting the ratio of multiple pigment powders to meet the diverse needs of users. The second pigment powder 5 can be evenly distributed in the base material and injection-molded to form a body 1 with uniform color.

[0060] The keycap can also include: a printing layer 6, which can provide additional visual elements or information, such as brand logos, patterns, characters, etc. The printing layer 6 can be provided on the inner bottom surface of the body 1; or, the printing layer 6 can be provided between the body 1 and the target layer 2, that is, the printing layer 6 is provided on the outer top surface of the body 1 to provide a clear display effect. The printing layer 6 can be provided on the outer top surface of the body 1 by using printing, screen printing, or printing methods. The printing layer 6 can be selected according to the required color.

[0061] The target layer 2 can scatter part of the light, and the light transmittance of the target layer 2 is greater than 0% so that the final keycap has a fogging effect. The target layer 2 can be disposed on the entire outer top surface of the body 1, or the target layer 2 can be disposed on the outer top surface corresponding to the target area of the body 1 so that the target area of the body 1 has a fogging effect.

[0062] The target layer 2 can be a film layer with a scattering function. For example, tiny holes can be created in the film layer by chemical etching or mechanical punching to form a uniformly distributed microporous structure, and the scattering of light is achieved through the microporous structure; or, through the combination of multiple materials with different refractive indexes, the scattering of light is achieved by multiple refractions and reflections of light between layers. The film layer can be an optical film, a transparent film, etc. The film layer can be disposed on the outer top surface of the body 1 by an attachment method or a vacuum coating method, etc. The present application does not specifically limit the type and setting method of the target layer 2, that is, those skilled in the art can set and adjust its type according to the actual situation. The above situations are only exemplary descriptions of the types and setting methods in which the target layer 2 in the present application can be applied, but are not limited to the situations described in the above embodiments.

[0063] The target layer 2 can have a preset thickness to form a preset haze. The thickness of the target layer 2 can be determined through experiments and simulations to achieve the required fogging effect. During the production process, a film layer attachment device can be used to ensure that the film layer is evenly attached to the body 1 and has a consistent thickness to improve the uniformity of the film layer fogging.

[0064] According to the requirements of the fogging effect finally presented by the keycap, it can be selected whether to set the fogging structure 7 on the inner bottom surface of the keycap. When the fogging structure 7 is set on the inner bottom surface of the keycap, the fogging structure 7 and the target layer 2 can jointly act to strengthen the fogging effect. The inner bottom surface of the keycap can be processed into an uneven shape to form the fogging structure 7; or, a layer of the target layer 2 can be added to the inner bottom surface of the keycap to form the fogging structure 7.

[0065] For the keycap provided in Embodiment 1 of the present application, by disposing the target layer 2 on the top surface of the transparent body 1, the light is scattered where it is close to the user's line of sight. This scattering effect greatly reduces the light directly reflected by the body 1 from entering the user's field of view, making the distribution of light in the user's line of sight direction more uniform, so that the user can obtain a more uniform visual effect and improve visual comfort.

[0066] Embodiment 2

[0067] As Figures 1 - 5 , Figure 8 shown, Embodiment 2 of the present application provides a keycap. Embodiment 2 of the present application is an extension of the keycap described in Embodiment 1. The target layer 2 of the keycap in Embodiment 2 of the present application can include:

[0068] An ultraviolet curable layer is provided on the outer top surface of the body 1.

[0069] The ultraviolet curable layer is a material layer formed by curing through ultraviolet irradiation. It has a certain hardness, which can prevent the outer top surface of the body 1 from being scratched, reduce damage to the outer top surface of the body 1, and extend the service life of the body 1. Moreover, the ultraviolet curable layer can reduce the deposition of fingerprints and oil stains on the outer top surface of the body 1 and is easy to clean.

[0070] The ultraviolet curable layer can be formed by using ultraviolet curable resin as the raw material to form an ultraviolet curable resin layer; or, the ultraviolet curable layer can be formed by using ultraviolet curable coating as the raw material to form an ultraviolet curable coating layer; or, the ultraviolet curable layer can be a prefabricated ultraviolet curable film layer, etc.

[0071] The ultraviolet curable resin layer can be applied to the outer top surface of the body 1 by spraying or roller coating, etc.; the ultraviolet curable coating layer can be applied to the outer top surface of the body 1 by spraying or roller coating, etc.; the ultraviolet curable film layer can be set on the outer top surface of the body 1 through pasting, attaching or other transfer attachment techniques.

[0072] When the keycap of the present application further includes a printing layer 6, the printing layer 6 can be provided on the outer top surface of the body 1, and the ultraviolet curable layer can completely cover the printing layer 6 to achieve the protection of the printing layer 6 by the ultraviolet curable layer.

[0073] The target layer 2 can further include a matting agent, and the matting agent can be evenly distributed in the ultraviolet curable layer to reduce the specular reflection of the target layer 2, so that the keycap presents a matte or semi-matte visual effect.

[0074] The target layer 2 can further include a modification aid, and the modification aid can be evenly distributed in the ultraviolet curable layer to improve the physical or chemical properties of the target layer 2. For example, the modification aid can be an ultraviolet resistant agent to enhance the weather resistance of the target layer 2; the modification aid can be an anti-aging agent or an acid and alkali resistant agent to enhance the chemical resistance of the target layer 2, etc. The modification aid can be used alone or in combination of multiple kinds. The modification aid and the matting agent can be used alternatively or in combination.

[0075] Embodiment 3

[0076] As Figures 1 - 4 shown, Embodiment 3 of the present application provides a keycap. Embodiment 3 of the present application is an extension of the keycaps described in Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2. The keycap in Embodiment 3 of the present application can further include:

[0077] A target medium 3, distributed in the target layer 2, so that the target layer 2 can cause the light passing through the body 1 to be scattered to form a fogging effect.

[0078] The target medium 3 can cause light to scatter inside the target layer 2. It can be incorporated into the raw materials of the target layer 2 (such as the raw materials of the film layer, ultraviolet curable coating, polyurethane coating, etc.). After being evenly mixed, the final target layer 2 is made, so that light can be evenly scattered when passing through the target layer 2. By controlling the addition amount, particle size, etc. of the target medium 3, the atomization effect can be precisely controlled, so as to meet the needs of different users for the keycap and performance, and improve the user experience. Among them, the more the addition amount of the target medium 3, the higher the scattering degree; the larger the particle size of the target medium 3, the higher the scattering degree. The target medium 3 can be selected from silica particles, glass microspheres, etc.

[0079] Example 4

[0080] As Figure 5 shown, Example 4 of the present application provides a keycap. Example 4 of the present application is an extension of the keycap described in Example 3. The keycap in Example 4 of the present application may further include:

[0081] A touch layer 4 is provided between the touch layer 4 and the outer top surface of the body 1. The touch layer is used to form a target touch structure.

[0082] The touch layer 4 can provide the required touch experience according to the target touch structure formed by it. After adjusting parameters such as the L value, light transmittance, and haze of the target layer 2, the target layer 2 can be set on the body 1, and then a touch layer 4 is set, which is beneficial to the adjustment of various parameters of the target layer 2. At the same time, the touch layer 4 can protect the target layer 2.

[0083] The touch layer 4 can be selected from a matte coating or a texture coating, etc., to form a target touch structure, that is, a rough touch structure; or, the smoothness of the surface of the target layer 2 can be increased by spraying a smoothing agent, such as polyacrylate, wax, etc., to form another target touch structure, that is, a smooth touch structure.

[0084] In addition, a matting agent, a modification aid, etc. can also be added to the touch layer 4 to adjust different glosses and performances, and further adjust the appearance effect of the keycap.

[0085] Example 5 is as Figures 1 - 4 shown. Example 5 of the present application provides a keycap. Example 5 of the present application is an extension of the keycap described in Example 3. The target medium 3 in the keycap of Example 5 of the present application may include:

[0086] A touch adjustment medium 31, which is distributed in the target layer 2 to form a preset touch structure; and / or,

[0087] The first pigment powder 32, which is distributed in the target layer 2 to form a preset color.

[0088] The tactile adjustment medium 31 can provide the required tactile experience according to the preset tactile structure formed thereby. The tactile adjustment medium 31 can be evenly distributed within the target layer 2 to form a preset tactile structure with uniform tactile sensation. By adjusting the type, size, density gradation, etc. of the tactile adjustment medium 31, the control of the preset tactile structure can be achieved to reach the required tactile characteristics such as the coefficient of friction or flatness. The tactile adjustment medium 31 can be selected from soft rubber particles, silicone rubber microparticles, etc.

[0089] The first pigment powder 32 can be evenly distributed within the target layer 2 to form a target layer 2 with uniform preset color. The first pigment powder 32 can be selected from organic pigments, inorganic pigments, etc. The first pigment powder 32 can use a single pigment powder; or, the first pigment powder 32 can include multiple pigment powders, and the precise control of the color can be achieved by adjusting the ratio of the multiple pigment powders to meet the diverse needs of users.

[0090] Either the tactile adjustment medium 31 or the first pigment powder 32 can be used alone, or they can be used in combination to provide more diverse product characteristics. By adding different tactile adjustment media 31 and first pigment powders 32 within the target layer 2, the tactile sensation and color of the keycap can be adjusted according to requirements, thereby improving the user experience and operation efficiency.

[0091] As Figures 1 - 4 shown, in one embodiment, the target medium 3 can include the tactile adjustment medium 31, and the tactile adjustment medium 31 can include:

[0092] Adjustment particles, which are distributed within the target layer 2 to increase the friction force on the surface of the target layer 2 to form a first target tactile structure; or,

[0093] Smoothing media, which are distributed within the target layer 2 to reduce the friction force on the surface of the target layer 2 to form a second target tactile structure. The adjustment particles are tiny particles used to increase the friction force on the surface of the target layer 2. The adjustment particles can be evenly distributed within the target layer 2 to form a uniform first target tactile structure, and the first target tactile structure can be a rough tactile structure to form a rough tactile sensation. The adjustment particles can be selected from glass microspheres, alumina particles, etc.

[0094] The smoothing media are media that can reduce the friction force on the surface of the target layer 2, and they can be evenly distributed within the target layer 2 to form a uniform second target tactile structure. The second target tactile structure can be a smooth tactile structure to form a smooth tactile sensation. The smoothing media can be selected from polyacrylates, metal powders, etc.

[0095] By adding different tactile adjustment media 31 within the target layer 2, the tactile sensation of the keycap can be adjusted according to the usage requirements, thereby improving the user experience and operation efficiency.

[0096] AsFigures 1 - 5 As shown, in one embodiment, the target medium 3 may include a first pigment powder 32, and the first pigment powder 32 may include:

[0097] White pigment powder, which is distributed in the target layer 2 to form white.

[0098] The white pigment powder may be evenly distributed in the target layer 2 to finally form a uniform white atomized light-transmitting keycap; when the body 1 of the keycap is made of a fully transparent material, the light transmittance of the white atomized light-transmitting keycap may be greater than 60%; when the body 1 of the keycap is made of a fully transparent material and a second pigment powder 5 is added, the light transmittance of the white atomized light-transmitting keycap may be greater than 50%, so as to finally present a semi-hidden and semi-transparent visual effect. The white pigment powder may be selected from titanium dioxide or zinc white powder, etc.

[0099] The white pigment powder can keep the whole keycap in a white appearance, so that the keycap can still maintain beauty and visual consistency after a long time; and, during use, it can enhance the visual contrast of the printing layer 6 on the body 1, making the printing layer 6 clearly visible.

[0100] Embodiment 6

[0101] Embodiment 6 of the present application provides a keycap. Embodiment 6 of the present application is an extension of the keycap described in Embodiment 1. The overall light transmittance of the target layer 2 and the body 1 of the keycap in Embodiment 6 of the present application is 5-50%; and / or, the overall haze of the target layer 2 and the body 1 is 5-50%; and / or, the overall L value of the target layer 2 and the body 1 is 30-85%, and the L value is used to represent the brightness of the color; and / or, the thickness of the target layer 2 is 10-40μm.

[0102] During the production and processing process, parameters such as the L value, light transmittance, and haze of the color of the target layer 2 can be adjusted by selecting the first color powder in the target layer 2 and matching different spraying thicknesses. The L value is a parameter in the chromaticity space and is used to describe the brightness of the color. The higher the L value, the brighter the color; the lower the L value, the darker the color.

[0103] The L value can be adjusted by changing the type of color powder and the spraying thickness, thereby changing the light and dark degree of the color. The first color powder can be selected from white, red, blue, green, or black, etc. The color of the first color powder can affect the final color of the target layer 2, and thus affect the L value; by controlling the spraying thickness, the color depth of the target layer 2 can be adjusted. Increasing the spraying thickness can increase the L value, and decreasing the thickness can reduce the L value.

[0104] The light transmittance and haze can be adjusted by changing the particle size of the first color powder and the thickness of the target layer 2 to be sprayed. Among them, using the first color powder with a fine particle size can increase the light transmittance and reduce the haze, while using the first color powder with a coarse particle size can increase the haze and reduce the light transmittance; increasing the thickness of the target layer 2 to be sprayed can increase the haze and reduce the light transmittance; reducing the thickness of the target layer 2 to be sprayed can reduce the haze and increase the light transmittance.

[0105] For example, when designing a keycap with a high L value, high light transmittance and low haze, white pigment powder can be added to the ultraviolet curing layer and the spraying thickness can be reduced; while when designing a keycap with a low L value, high haze and low light transmittance, black pigment powder can be added to the ultraviolet curing layer and the spraying thickness can be increased.

[0106] Example 7

[0107] Embodiment 7 of the present application provides a keyboard, including:

The keyboard includes a plurality of keycaps, and the plurality of keycaps can be the same or different. For example, the colors, light selection, and touch feelings of the plurality of keycaps can be the same or different. When the plurality of keycaps are different, the plurality of keycaps can be arranged in a preset pattern or character to provide a personalized design.

[0112] The keyboard provided in Embodiment 7 of the present application includes the keycap provided in Embodiment 1. By arranging the target layer 2 on the top surface of the transparent body 1, the light is scattered near the user's line of sight. This scattering effect greatly reduces the light directly reflected by the body 1 from entering the user's field of vision, making the distribution of light in the user's line of sight more uniform, so that the user can obtain a more uniform visual effect and improve visual comfort.

[0119] The electronic device provided in Embodiment 8 of the present application includes the keycap provided in Embodiment 1. By disposing the target layer 2 on the top surface of the transparent body 1, the light is scattered where it is close to the user's line of sight. This scattering effect greatly reduces the light reflected by the body 1 from directly entering the user's field of vision, making the distribution of light in the user's line of sight direction more uniform, so that the user can obtain a more uniform visual effect and improve visual comfort.
