A keyboard includes a backlight module, a base plate, a membrane circuit disposed on the base plate, and a plurality of key structures disposed on the membrane circuit. The backlight module includes a light source, a reflective layer, a light guide layer, and a shielding layer. The light source is disposed corresponding to the light guide layer. The light guide layer is located between the shielding layer and the reflective layer. The light guide layer has a through-hole. The shielding layer and the reflective layer are in contact with each other in the through-hole of the light guide layer. The base plate is disposed on the shielding layer. The base plate has a positioning portion disposed corresponding to the through-hole of the light guide layer, which protrudes toward the reflective layer or the membrane circuit.

A detachable screen key structure mainly includes a key body having a hollow portion, key butting element and screen carrying element, where a key signal connecter is configured in the hollow portion, the screen carrying element is configured with a display element and a key cap is configured on the display element, and the display element is configured with a display butting element adapted to dock the key butting element. Whereby, a user can accommodate the key signal connecter for signal transmission inside the hollow portion so as to increase use beautification. Furthermore, since the display will be connected to the key butting element through the display butting element, the user is allowed to carry out the removal and replacement by themselves, which can increase use convenience.

A key structure includes a keycap and a scissors-type connecting element. The scissors-type connecting element is connected with the keycap. The scissors-type connecting element includes an inner frame and an outer frame. A first end of the inner frame is connected with the keycap. The outer frame is connected with the inner frame and swingable relative to the inner frame. A first end of the outer frame is connected with the keycap and located near a second end of the inner frame. A second end of the inner frame includes a first protrusion. A first end of the outer frame includes a second protrusion near the first protrusion. The first protrusion includes a first knocking surface. The second protrusion includes a second knocking surface. While the keycap is pressed down, the first knocking surface and the second knocking surface knock on each other.

A keyboard backlight module includes a light guide plate, a reflector, a light-emitting device and a first microstructure. The light guide plate has an output surface, a light guide pattern and a bottom surface disposed on an opposite side of the output surface. The light guide pattern is arranged on at least one of the bottom surface and the output surface. The reflector has a reflecting surface facing the bottom surface. The light-emitting device is disposed on one side of the light guide plate and configured to provide an incident light to the reflecting surface. The first microstructure is disposed on the reflecting surface, at least partially overlaps with the light guide pattern, and is configured to transform the incident light into a first reflected light.

A keyboard includes an elastic element disposed above a bottom case, a light emitter, a light receiver, a pressing element, and a keycap. When a force toward the bottom case is applied to a top surface of the elastic element, a relationship between a force to move the top surface and a distance from the top surface to the bottom case is in a negative correlation in a path of the top surface from a first position to a second position, and a relationship between a force to move the top surface and a distance from the top surface to the bottom case is in a positive correlation in a path of the top surface from the second position to a third position. The light emitter, the light receiver, and the pressing element are disposed above the elastic element. The keycap is disposed above the pressing element.
