Description

The small-sized input media of document intuitively that is used for the palm product

Technical field

The utility model relates to a kind of input media, particularly a kind of small-sized input media of document intuitively that is used for the palm product.

Background technology

In information-technology age, the hand held information equipment is more and more important, as PDA(Personal Digital Assistant), mobile phone (mobile phone) etc.When storing with hand held equipment and searching data, the input document is an inevitable formality.The current method that generally is used for hand held equipment input document is to adopt key board, touch keyboard and handwriting pad parts such as (comprising Graffiti, small-sized PC handwriting pad).These each parts that is used for the document input respectively have its relative merits.The key board that is used for the input of hand held equipment document is similar to traditional QWERTY keyboard usually, and the advantage of this input block is directly perceived, easily, because keyboard provides visual information.Yet because size, the keyboard size is restricted in the certain limit, with the operability of remaining valid.If the size of keyboard is too little, the user is difficult to accurately push keyboard, easily causes wrong problem by other keys.Along with continuous advancement in technology, hand held equipment is tending towards miniaturization more.Therefore, big document input block as key board, will become the factor of restriction hand held equipment miniaturization.

Another kind of common document input block is a touch keyboard, keyboard is shown on the touch-screen, it is to push certain key with nib that the user imports document, this method is widely used in PDA, as palm control system (Palm OS) (Graffiti) and the PC of Microsoft platform (Microsoft pocket PCplatform).This method is directly perceived and able to programme as key board.The size of touch keyboard, because the nib size is littler than finger, and littler than key board.Therefore, can have operation more accurately with nib.Yet hold a pen point and use touch keyboard need two hands usually, and need the big and artificial accurately aiming of amount of exercise of hand.Therefore, touch keyboard and be unfavorable for the input of a large amount of document.

The another kind of document input method of hand-held device is to use handwriting pad, and this method is widely used in PDA, as palm control system (Palm OS) (Graffiti) and the PC of Microsoft platform (Microsoftpocket PC platform).Its advantage is: have the relatively more input field area of small breadth, its size can not increase because of the increase of input character.Yet the Graffiti of palm control system (Palm OS) needs long learning time, and the handwriting pad of small-sized PC is more more directly perceived than palm control system (PalmOS), because handwriting pad more approaches truly to write.But handwriting pad needs a large amount of motions of whole hand, is unfavorable for a large amount of document inputs equally.

Summary of the invention

Technical problem to be solved in the utility model is, at the above-mentioned deficiency of prior art, and provides a kind of small-sized input media of document intuitively that is used for the palm product, and this device size is littler, directly perceived easily to be learned, minimum motion that need only hand.

Above-mentioned technical matters of the present utility model is realized by following technical scheme.

A kind of small-sized input media of document intuitively that is used for the palm product, it is characterized in that: this device is made up of framework, character list and movable plate, and wherein, two sides of this framework are provided with Y-axis to slide rail; One X axis slide rail, its two ends vertically are provided with chute, and this X axis slide rail is slidedly arranged on the Y-axis of framework two sides on slide rail with its two ends chute; This movable plate, its back side is provided with chute, and this movable plate is slidedly arranged on the X axis slide rail with the chute at its back side; This movable plate is provided with indicator and pushes the pushbutton switch of signal for output; This character list is located on the framework below the movable plate, also is provided with respectively the voltage divider that constitutes with set chute on slide rail and X axis slide rail in Y-axis.

Above-mentioned voltage divider is a slide resistor, and is provided with cutting in resistor, and the sliding part of this slide resistor is the side that is fixedly arranged on above-mentioned chute respectively.

Be provided with a ball in the sliding part of this voltage divider, this ball is pressed against on the above-mentioned resistor with cutting with a spring.

This framework is a П type framework, and its two side frame is that the Y-axis by I shape is constituted to slide rail, and the chute at X axis slide rail two ends is slidedly arranged on the axial slide rail of this I shape; Wherein a Y-axis is to the parallel shaft voltage divider that is provided with in the outside of slide rail, and the sliding part of this voltage divider is located at the chute side.

This indicator is the upside centre position of being located at this movable plate, but this indicator is the wicket that a proper frame is lived a character, is provided with a little pointer in the wicket.

The positive middle arc concave surface that can pin slip for finger that is provided with of this movable plate, mobile movable plate is to select the character of required input.

This character list comprises Chinese character, digit and function key.

Advantage of the present utility model is:

The user only need can import document with one or two finger when littler, directly perceived easily of size, use.

For this practical structure, feature and effect thereof are had further understanding, enumerate preferred embodiment now and be described with reference to the accompanying drawings as follows:
