Abstract
An illuminated keyboard includes a first housing and a second housing having a slot, and between the first housing and the second housing, an illumination module, a circuit board, a shield member and a plurality of keys are disposed therein in sequence. The illumination module includes a cover and a luminescence unit, light generated by the luminescence unit is transmitted into a trough of the cover and then travels from a light incident surface to a light emitting surface of the cover. The keys respectively are inserted in a plurality of openings of the shield member, and the light from the light emitting surface is projected on the keys through the circuit board and the openings of the shield member and then passes through the slot of the second housing. This prevents brightness non-uniformity of keys and light leakage between adjacent keys of the keyboard.
