While the present invention provides a touch pad-type mouse combined keyboard to simultaneously perform a keyboard function and a mouse function, the position at which the keyboard or mouse function is operated can be arbitrarily used. That is, the keyboard keyboard or the mouse mode can be executed according to the pattern of the touch of the human finger, and the keyboard keyboard array can be displayed on the touched part, or the mouse function can be performed.
More specifically, referring to FIG. 5, the

Specifically, the contact capacitive method is manufactured by coating a transparent special conductive metal (TAO: Tin Antimony Oxide) material on both sides of the glass constituting the touch screen sensor, and uses the human body's capacitance. That is, when the user touches the coated touch screen, a certain amount of current flowing on the surface of the touch screen is absorbed into the user's body, and the touch screen recognizes the coordinates of the portion where the amount of current is changed.
The resistive film method is manufactured by coating a resistive component on a surface of a touch screen and covering a special film on the resistive component. In other words, a resistive coating is applied to the inside of the special film, and an insulating rod is placed at regular intervals so that the resistive component and the touch screen do not come into contact with each other. This is to recognize the coordinates of the part in contact with.
The surface ultrasonic conduction method is a method in which a transducer installed on the opposite side receives surface ultrasonic waves when a transducer attached to a touch screen emits surface ultrasonic waves. Since the surface ultrasonic waves to be transmitted are constant, when pressure is applied to a specific portion of the touch screen, the surface ultrasonic waves of the portion to which the pressure is applied are weakened to recognize the coordinates of the touched portion.
The tension measuring method is a method of detecting the coordinates of the contact point according to the degree of force applied to the screen of the touch screen by attaching a sensor that can measure the tension on the four corners of the touch screen.
The infrared light method is a method of recognizing the coordinates of the touched part by blocking the infrared scanning light flowing on the touch screen surface.

In addition, a feature of the present invention is that the keyboard mode or the mouse mode can be used depending on how the finger touches the
First, an embodiment of a keyboard mode execution method will be described.
The selection of the keyboard mode is based on any one or more of four touches of the left hand finger or four touches of the right hand finger on the
Since only four fingers are required for either hand, the keyboard layout can be generated by four touches of either of the left or right hand, and depending on the setting, only the keyboard corresponding to the right or left hand is displayed. (10) can be displayed. That is, the keyboard corresponding to the left hand and the right hand may be provided separately. In addition, the keyboard keyboard arrangement may be generated at a portion where the fingers of the left and right hands are touched.
As shown in (a) and (b) of FIG. 4, in the present invention, the keyboard corresponding to the left hand and the right hand is provided with a function of the generated
This is performed by the
In addition, as shown in (b) of FIG. 4, the present invention may have a rounded shape of the generated keyboard key, and may have other shapes. As shown in the arrangement of the left and right keyboards, it can be seen that the central part is provided in a convex upward shape. This is because the length of the middle finger is generally considered to be located on the upper side of the keyboard ergonomically arranged more conveniently. That is, the keyboard layout is formed in consideration of the vertical arrangement as well as the horizontal arrangement of the fingers.
In other words, there is a difference in the way each user uses the keyboard, and there is also a difference in the size of the user's hand to enable the arrangement and layout of the keyboard adapted to the user. When the user touches a finger on the
In addition, the
In addition, the
Next, an embodiment of a mouse mode execution method will be described.
The selection of the mouse mode may be performed by one touch of the finger or two touches of the finger on the
That is, in the present invention, since the touch pad type keyboard can be used as a mouse, selection of a method different from the keyboard mode is required, so that the mouse mode is executed by one or two touches.
In this case, when the mouse mode is selected, the mouse can operate the mouse from the point where the finger is touched by the
To use the mouse mode, first, when selecting a mouse mode with one finger touch, add a touch of one finger, and touch the left finger while keeping the touch of the finger located on the right side. When the button function is activated and the finger on the right side is touched while keeping the touch of the finger on the left side, the right button function of the mouse is activated, and the cursor movement function is activated by dragging one finger. This is possible. Of course, when two fingers are dragged to a state in which the left button function is operated (two fingers are touched) as in the conventional mouse, the selected one is dragged in the monitor. Here, left and right may be changed according to a user's selection.
Next, in the case of selecting a mouse mode with two fingers touching, if the left finger is touched while maintaining the touch of the finger located on the right side, the left button function of the mouse is activated and the touch of the finger located on the left side is performed. If you touch the finger on the right side while holding, the right button function of the mouse works. If you drag one finger, the cursor movement function works. In this case, the drag method is the same. Here, left and right may be changed according to a user's selection.
Hereinafter, a key input method according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 6.
As shown in FIG. 6, in the signal input method of the touch pad-type mouse combined keyboard according to the present invention, a mode selection step of selecting one or more of a keyboard mode and a mouse mode by touching a finger on the touch pad unit 20 (S1) And, in the case of keyboard mode selection, the keyboard in which either the generated
While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed exemplary embodiments. It is to be understood that various changes and modifications may be made without departing from the scope of the appended claims.
