Description

Telephone keypad and English input method thereof

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION: the present invention relates to phone, especially with the English method of phone key board input.

The technical background of invention:

In English automatic paging (call) system, when paging station imports information commands such as looking for the people, directly import English with phone.The English method of existing input is a repeat key on former keyboard, by twice or three inferior.On same key, repeat very easily chaotic and make mistakes by input alphabet repeatedly.For example the word that connects together of EF is many, by present input method, just import two letters of EF by 5 keys 3, if pressed more, just becomes and has imported DEF, so make mistakes easily.Auld people also misremembers easily, forgets by under several, misremembers easily.For this reason, need other English input method.In addition, there is not the English display function on the existing phone card.Also inconvenient.Addressing these problems, is necessary.

Goal of the invention: invention is imported English new method and relevant telephone circuit with telephone key-press, reduce as far as possible and reuse a key, to reduce problem by same key number of times confusion, make English input can remember smoothly, easily and be difficult for makeing mistakes, and the new phone of invention band display screen, make to be more suitable for English automatic calling system.

Description of the invention: this method is to utilize the * of telephone keypad and mode that the # key combines with numerical key to represent English alphabet, each English alphabet is by different once or twice keys, be expressed and be transfused to, simple punctuation mark also uses the same method and is expressed and is transfused to.In addition, on the keyboard circuit of phone and signaling circuit, utilize prior art to increase a storer and display screen again, the English of input is shown earlier and store, confirmation again the number of sending out with send instruction.Like this, will avoid importing the mistake that is caused.

Fig. 1 is a keyboard disk synoptic diagram of the present invention

Fig. 2 is the explanation that is added with the block scheme part on the signaling circuit of push-button phone of storer and display screen and keyboard road.

Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, invention is elaborated.

Consult Fig. 1.Can see alphabetical ABC and numeral 2 shared keys, DEF and 3 shared keys from the card of the keyboard of Fig. 1.Down push away successively, GHI and 4, JKL and 5, MNO and 6, PRS and 7, TUV and 8, WXY and 9, QZ and 0 are total to key respectively, have only numeral 1, the private separately key of symbol * and symbol #.

In view of the above, the present invention adopts the method input English regulation letter A by 1 key or 2 two keys to represent with 2*, promptly button 2 again button * just imported alphabetical A.Letter b represents that with 2 button 2 has once just been imported letter b.Letter C represents that with 2# button 2 is button # again, has just imported letter C.Rule can be easy to memory and layout according to this.This place key button * again pressed in first letter, and second letter is just only by this key, and the 3rd letter pressed the # key again by this place key.Until the key of digital O, have only two alphabetical Q and Z on this key, regulation Q represents with 0* and imports, Z represents with 0# and imports, and under the English situation of input, only can represent fullstop by numerical key 0.In view of the above, can table one as follows:

A 2* D 3* G 4* J 5* M 6* B 2 E 3 H 4 K 5 N 6 C 2# F 3# I 4# L 5# O 6#

P?7*?T?8*?W?9*?Q?0* R?7 U?8 X?9 S?7#?V?8#?Y?9#?Z?0#

Table one, letter and button corresponding tables

Button order shown in the table one can not be put upside down.A must button 2 again button * just to import be A, as first button * again 2 of buttons do not import A.It is English to represent to begin to change into input with quadruple linkage * * * *, promptly connects by four times key *, and it is English to begin to change into input.It is English that but hair quadruple linkage #### represents to finish input, promptly connects by four times key #, just changed into the beginning input digit.

The space is necessary, under the English situation of input, and promptly in the middle of by input English behind four times key *, key 1 expression space, promptly button 1 can make English space.

Punctuation mark except that fullstop is of little use when English automatic paging is instructed, but also should be within considering.Available 1* represents comma, i.e. button 1 button * input comma again.Represent question mark with 1#, promptly button 1 again button # just imported? number.

We know that 12 and 21 is two different numbers.Equally, the different order of button can be designed to finish different functions.For example 1* represents comma, and * 1 is function in addition just, the letter of the previous input of expression cancellation for example, and #1 just can represent that input finishes, and just can represent to begin to export by twice key 1, the startup signaling circuit sends telephone order or the like to paging station.

Also can adopt by other two different key tables and show and realize a certain function, button 2 button 3 more for example, realize the last whole word of cancellation, button 2 is the English of the whole input of button 4 cancellations again, or the like, use by two different keys, or identical key, or, can realize many functions by three different keys or identical key etc.This way is easily remembered and is difficult for makeing mistakes.

With present all common push-button phones, as long as the instruction of changing key circuit slightly just can be used said method well.

The simplest use said method, promptly change into input English by four times key * after, along with just letter having been sent, without memory, without display screen, when not needing too many other function, above-mentioned English input method stands good with button.

The English input of present this telephone key-press because there is not display screen, is not stored the memory of the English of input, and advantage is enough simple, and shortcoming is to verify the content of sending of output.Present retrieval shows, has the phone that display screen shows the input content when still finding no with phone input English.In order to store and show the English content of input, between the keyboard circuit of phone and signaling circuit, increase by a memory and a display screen gets final product.Consult Fig. 2, Fig. 2 is the key diagram that is connected with signaling circuit with keyboard circuit that has increased memory and display screen.Letter is delivered to the memory that is attached thereto immediately and is stored and show on display screen after the keyboard circuit input.Send instruction by keyboard circuit again after having imported, information is transported to signaling circuit from memory, by the signaling circuit number of sending out.Memory and display screen all are respectively known technologies.Without memory also can, existingly in Fig. 2 square frame show that the input along with letter has just sent out at once.Certainly, there is display screen still convenient.Even without memory, also can only use display screen.The line design of these functions all is foolproof prior art.

This English input method and the phone that has increased the circuit of memory and display screen will improve to some extent to the running of English automatic calling system.When the phone of display screen can be used as the facsimile recorder use, promptly the other side also was when the phone of display screen is arranged, and this English input method also will further be brought into play its benefit.
