20250299893 · 2025-09-25 ·

A method of manufacturing a translucent keycap is firstly to form a translucent base layer to overlay a top surface and a skirt side surface of a translucent main body. Next, a light-shielding layer is formed to overlay the translucent base layer. Subsequently, a removable intermediate layer is formed to at least overlay the light-shielding layer located on the top surface. Afterward, on the removable intermediate layer over the top surface, a hollowed region is formed through the removable intermediate layer and the light-shielding layer such that the translucent base layer is exposed within the hollowed region. Then, a colored translucent layer is partially formed to cover the hollowed region and the removable intermediate layer located on a peripheral of the hollowed region. Finally, the removable intermediate layer and the colored translucent layer covering the removable intermediate layer located on the peripheral of the hollowed region are removed together.
