Embodiment

Also in conjunction with the accompanying drawings the utility model is described in further detail below by specific embodiment.

Handheld device first embodiment with keyboard

Fig. 1 is the structural representation that the utlity model has handheld device first embodiment of keyboard.As shown in Figure 1, this handheld device is specially a mobile telephone terminal, comprises fuselage 1.Fuselage 1 surface is provided with keyboard 2, also is provided with display screen 3 on this surface.Be provided with button input module (not shown) in the fuselage 1, be used for the actuation of keys of keyboard 2 is converted to input signal according to setting definition, this button input module can be cooperated by hardware circuit and software to be realized, specifically can be arranged on the circuit structure of fuselage 1 inside.Common keyboard all can have similar button input module, is used for discerning the action that the button button is pressed, and then is converted to input signal according to what set by key definition by circuit, is transferred to inner Control Software, finishes the button input.In the present embodiment, keyboard 2 is done as a whole, is rotatably connected on fuselage 1 surface by a runner assembly 5, has on fuselage 1 surface clockwise and/or the degree of freedom that rotates counterclockwise.

Concrete, this runner assembly 5 can be fixed on keyboard 2 and fuselage 1 apparent surface's center, runner assembly 5 can be the cooperation of rotation axis and axle sleeve, can make keyboard 2 do as a whole the rotation on fuselage 1 surface gets final product, and keyboard 2 can be rotated in the scope on fuselage 1 surface, and do not exceed fuselage 1.

Adopt technique scheme, the user is the position of rotary keyboard on fuselage surface easily, adapts to the input habit of self.Certainly, keyboard is not limited to as a unitary rotation, and a part of button that also can be provided with respectively wherein is rotatable, can design according to user's operating habit.

Handheld device second embodiment with keyboard

Fig. 2 is the structural representation that the utlity model has primary importance among handheld device second embodiment of keyboard.Present embodiment can above-mentioned first embodiment be the basis, also is provided with one and switches assembly 6 on this handheld device.This changeover module 6 links to each other with the button input module with runner assembly 5, is used for the extremely corresponding setting definition of use of switching key input module when runner assembly 5 turns to desired location.Corresponding certain symbol of input or signal when setting definition and can be certain button and being pressed according to artificial setting, can be set the corresponding definition of different buttons and symbol, signal.Changeover module 6 also can be by the incompatible realization that matches of hardware circuit and software.

Adopt the technical scheme of present embodiment, when keyboard turns to some desired locations, can switching key and the corresponding definition of symbol, thus make things convenient for user's use.

In the present embodiment, as shown in Figure 2, keyboard 2 deviates from the surface of fuselage 1 and is provided with navigation key 7 and numerical key 8 at least, and the edge setting of navigation key 7 contiguous keyboards 2 one sides; During navigation key 7 vicinity fuselages 1 one sides is the primary importance of runner assembly 5, and runner assembly 5 is the second place of runner assembly 5 when rotating 180 degree and navigation key 7 vicinity fuselages 1 opposite side; When runner assembly 5 switched between the primary importance and the second place, changeover module 6 was defined in keyboard 2 forward input definition and oppositely switches between the input definition to the setting of input signal conversion.

Keyboard can cooperate the fuselage shape with and the position of going up display screen design, preferably as shown in Figure 2, when the vicinity of the navigation key on keyboard fuselage right-hand side, can make things convenient for user's right hand one-handed performance, when keyboard turns to the left-hand side of fuselage, can make things convenient for user's left hand one-handed performance.Because changeover module can switch the setting definition that keyboard is converted to input signal, so for numerical key, can also be according to the input that puts in order of custom.

Fig. 3 the utlity model has the structural representation that keyboard clockwise rotates among handheld device second embodiment of keyboard.Fig. 4 the utlity model has the structural representation that keyboard rotates counterclockwise among handheld device second embodiment of keyboard.Fig. 5 is the structural representation that the utlity model has the second place among handheld device second embodiment of keyboard.Shown in Fig. 3,4 and 5, keyboard 2 can be by turning to the second place clockwise or counterclockwise, changeover module 6 can switch sets definition, and preferably identifying respectively on each numerical key 8 has forward numerical chracter and reverse numerical chracter, as shown in Figure 6, after making numerical key 8 oppositely, still the numerical chracter that forward can be provided is conveniently imported to the user.Layout type according to custom can also comprise function key 9 on the keyboard 2; And the quantity of numerical key 8 is 12, is the square form of falling and arranges, and is relative with navigation key 7, the edge setting of contiguous keyboard 2 opposite sides.

The utility model has improved the human-computer interaction interface of handheld device, and keyboard rotates the sign of setting and button, and the layout designs of conversion keys makes the user use left hand and the independent operator holding equipment of the right hand easily easily.By changeover module is set, the user all can continue to use custom when using the left hand or the right hand key arrangement is the operator holding equipment easily.

The handheld device that the utlity model has keyboard is not limited to be mobile phone, and is not limited to above-mentioned keyboard layout design, changes the layout designs of button on fuselage as long as can rotate by keyboard.

It should be noted that at last: above embodiment only in order to the explanation the technical solution of the utility model, is not intended to limit; Although the utility model is had been described in detail with reference to previous embodiment, those of ordinary skill in the art is to be understood that: it still can be made amendment to the technical scheme that aforementioned each embodiment put down in writing, and perhaps part technical characterictic wherein is equal to replacement; And these modifications or replacement do not make the essence of appropriate technical solution break away from the spirit and scope of each embodiment technical scheme of the utility model.
