Abstract
A backlight keyswitch includes a keycap, a support plate, a membrane circuit board and a backlight module. The support plate is disposed under the keycap. The membrane circuit board is disposed in parallel to the keycap and the support plate. The backlight module is disposed under the support plate, which includes a shielding sheet, a light guide panel, a lighting board and a protrusion structure. The shielding sheet includes a light permeable area corresponding to the keycap. The light guide panel is disposed under the shielding sheet. The lighting board is disposed under the light guide panel and includes a light source. The protrusion structure protrudes toward the light source and is formed on one of the support plate, the membrane circuit board and the shielding sheet. The protrusion structure reflects at least partial light of the light source to enter the light guide panel for lateral transmission.
