Abstract

The "HandyKey" computer keyboard proposed increased working speed by making it possible to carry out a greater number of typing strokes per minute by eliminating the need for arm repositioning, finger repositioning and changes of position between key operation and mouse operation. This is achieved by virtue of the fact that the mouse functions are integrated in two separate control units (for the left and the right hand, respectively), and the five (or more) keys on each unit have multiple control functions (e.g. finger movement forwards or backwards, up or down).

Description

Hiermit beantrage ich die Erteilung eines Patents für die folgend beschriebene Sache:I hereby apply for a patent for the following thing:

Bezeichnung:
Eingabeeinrichtung für Digitalrechner.
Nutzungsmerkmale:
a) Tasten auf 2 Einheiten verteilt, beide voneinander unabhängig frei beweglich, (wie üblich über Datenleitung oder Funk/Infrarot mit Zentral­ einheit/Computer verbunden.)
b) Beidhändige Tastenbedienung je Einheit für jeden Finger entweder 1 oder 2 oder 3 Tasten-Schalter je Taste oder Mehrfach-Schalter je Taste. Je ein oder mehrere Handteller-Schalter. (Bewegung beider Einheiten zur Cursor-Steuerung benutzbar (wie als Maus-Prinzip bereits üblich.)
c) Arm-Motorik zur Positionierung /Tastenfindung nicht mehr erforderlich, Finger-Positionierung zur Tastenfindung nicht mehr erforderlich, Positionswechsel zwischen Mausaktion und Tastenaktion nicht mehr erforderlich.Designation:
Input device for digital computers.
Features of use:
a) Buttons distributed over 2 units, both freely movable independently of each other (as usual via data line or radio / infrared connected to the central unit / computer.)
b) Two-handed button operation per unit for each finger either 1 or 2 or 3 button switches per button or multiple switches per button. One or more palm switches. (Movement of both units can be used for cursor control (as is already common as a mouse principle.)
c) Arm motor function no longer required for positioning / key finding, finger positioning for key finding no longer required, position change between mouse action and key action no longer required.

Funktionsmerkmale:
Jede Taste kann mehrfach belegt werden weil:
a) Von der Neutralstellung aus durch schieben, ziehen, drücken mehrere Betätigungen/Schaltstellung möglich sind.
b) Die Vorbelegung wie bekannt mittels SHIFT, CONTROL . . per Software . . möglich ist.Features:
Each key can be assigned several times because:
a) Push, pull, push from the neutral position, several operations / switch positions are possible.
b) As is known, using SHIFT, CONTROL. . via software. . is possible.
