Abstract

The utility model relates to a keyboard, which provides a new pressing key provided structure with the uniform arrangement of letter pressing keys, wherein 26 letter keys are uniformly distributed on two sides and each side is distributed with 13 keys in order to uniformly distribute the letter keys to fingers of two hands. Thumbs of the two hands respectively control G, H keys and the other eight fingers of the two hands are uniformly distributed with 3 letter keys. Thus, the two hands can operate with equalization according to curve lines arranged on the letter key areas of both sides. The utility model can efficiently increase work efficiency and Chinese-English inputting speed and can also eliminate the partial tension of finger muscles and relieve working pressure and fatigue. The entirety of the keyboard is divided into six areas of a switch key area, letter key areas on the both sides, a number key area, a punctuation area and a control key area. The letter key area is uniformly arranged into left and right areas. The both letter key areas can be contiguously arranged or separated by other key areas or other pressing keys.

Description

Keyboard

Technical field

The utility model relates to a kind of architecture advances of novel computer keyboard.

Background technology

In office and family life, using a computer becomes the equipment and the instrument of routine work and amusement indispensability, the natural keyboard basic input equipment that also is absolutely necessary.

The existing keyboard that adopts usually is except newly-increased function key, and most button is still along practising initial layout and arrangement architecture.The layout structure of keyboard integral body is to be the center with 26 letter keys, is arranged with several input function districts around it, as territory, numeric keypad, switch key zone (as Shif key, Ctrl), punctuation mark zone (as ": " key, "." key), function key zone (as the F1 key) and operating key zone (as Insert key, Home key, " → " key) etc.In addition, input employed 26 letter keys during Chinese and English, all with continuously, be not separated and be that the mode of parallel lines is arranged.Thereby existing keyboard exists bigger defective and deficiency in use:

1, the subregion arrangement mode of existing keyboard has caused some buttons commonly used far away from the distance of hand, as Shif key, Ctrl and Backspace key etc.When typewriting was imported fast, these keys often need be controlled by small thumb, so be prone to the phenomenon of misplaying;

2,26 letter keys in the existing keyboard, it is uneven dividing the work for user's finger.Thumb for each hand does not just distribute letter key; The both hands forefinger but need be responsible for 12 letter keys (being respectively R, F, V, T, G, B, Y, H, N, U, J, M key); And simultaneously, the middle finger of the right hand and the third finger only are responsible for 2 letter keys, right hand small thumb respectively and only are responsible for 1 letter key.The quantitative difference of this division of labor directly causes the working load of both hands forefinger overweight.When the user carries out Chinese and English when input for a long time, its finger muscles part is too nervous, can further increase the weight of user's sense of fatigue and discomfort.

It is reasonable inadequately that above-mentioned problems all come from the layout structure of the keyboard that uses, and in today of emphasizing design style hommization and practicality, above-mentioned existing structure has limited the further raising of work efficiency.

The utility model content

Keyboard described in the utility model, its purpose of design is to address the above problem the key arrangement form that provides a kind of alphabet key to divide equally arrangement with deficiency, wherein 26 letter keys are divided into 13 keys of territory, lateral areas distribution, thereby letter key are assigned to comparatively fifty-fifty the finger of both hands.Except that the both hands thumb is controlled G, H key respectively, 8 fingers of other of both hands all distribute 3 letter keys, therefore both hands can balancedly be operated by the curve that letter key zone, both sides is arranged, both can increase work efficiency effectively and the Chinese and English input speed, can eliminate local tension, alleviation working pressure and the fatigue of finger muscles again.

Keyboard described in the utility model does not change letter, symbol or operating function that each button can be imported, and just the layout structure with button and its affiliated area is improved the purpose of design that realizes this patent.

Described keyboard adopts a brand-new key arrangement form.Integral keyboard is divided into switch key zone, letter key zone, both sides, numerical key zone, punctuation mark zone and operating key zone, amounts to 6 zones.

Described switch key zone can be set at the vertical center of integral keyboard, also can be arranged on any side.Be provided with at this regional center a space bar, the space bar symmetria bilateralis be provided with a pair of Alt key, a pair of shift key and a pair of Ctrl, a tab key is set above space bar.

Described letter key zone is divided equally is arranged in left and right two zones, and wherein each zone includes 13 letter keys.Certainly, two letter key zones can be adjacent arrangements, also can be by other key areas or other buttons separately.

Arrange by set position and finger division of labor situation in described letter key zone:

In letter key zone, left side, first row is provided with Q, W, E, R key from left to right; Second row is provided with A, S, D, F key from left to right; The 3rd row is provided with Z, X, C, V key from left to right; And the G key that is provided with separately.

In letter key zone, right side, first row is provided with U, I, O, P key from left to right; Second row is provided with J, K, L, T key from left to right; The 3rd row is provided with B, N, M, Y key from left to right; And the H key that is provided with separately.

Wherein, the G key in the letter key zone, left side, also with letter key zone, right side in the adjacent arrangement of H key, also can be separately by other buttons.

In addition, in the right side letter key zone T key and Y key that the position is set is also interchangeable.

Use above-mentioned letter key zone layout structure, when using button to carry out the Chinese and English input,

The left hand thumb is responsible for the G key; Left index finger is responsible for R, F, V key; The left hand middle finger is responsible for E, D, C key; Nameless W, S, the X key be responsible for of left hand; The left hand small thumb is responsible for Q, A, Z key.

Right hand thumb is responsible for the H key; Right hand forefinger is responsible for U, J, B key; Right hand middle finger is responsible for I, K, N key; Right ring finger is responsible for O, L, M key; Right hand small thumb is responsible for P, T, Y key.

In the letter key zone, described both sides, every row's letter key all is arc structure upwards to be arranged, and promptly 6 responsible letter keys of both hands middle finger are that 6 letter keys the highest, that the little nurse of both hands is responsible for are minimum on level height in level height.So just meet the ergonomics principle, can adapt to the natural torsion radian of finger in use.

During underway, the English input, the both hands thumb can be put down gently on G, H key, and other fingers then are responsible for the use operation of the letter key of having jurisdiction over separately.

Space bar in the above-mentioned switch key zone, because it is set on the vertical center line, thereby still is responsible for operation by the both hands thumb, this and the not variation of operating position of existing keyboard.

Main design concept of keyboard in sum and layout structure, the utility model can be realized following advantage and beneficial effect:

1,26 letter keys altogether, except that G, H key were shared by left and right thumb respectively, all the other 24 letter keys were all given other 4 fingers of every hand, have solved the OL problem of both hands forefinger.

2, solve the problem that existing keyboard is beaten other keys because of B, Y key from both hands forefinger easily mistake far away, effectively improved input service efficient and accuracy rate.

3, can avoid to end the rough sledding of input continuously, as the input problem of Shif key, Ctrl and Backspace key because of button commonly used is distributed in the periphery.

4, the layout structure ergonomic design of integral keyboard, more comfortable in use.
