Abstract

The device has a keyboard formed of 60 keys divided into two distinct groups, and presented in front of a box. One group called a priority group represents 36 abbreviations for designing a syllable by the association of 24 abbreviations constituted on the other group, in a primary operating mode. An inversion key (2) and a disintegration key (3) are pressed for inverting the syllable and disintegrating the 60 keys, respectively.

Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif émetteur portatif comprenantThe present invention relates to a portable transmitter device comprising

un procédé phonétique simplifié.  a simplified phonetic process.

Traditionnellement, la frappe du mot complet est nécessaire pour son identification. D'autres méthodes d'identification des mots par phonèmes ou par 5. syllabes existent mais nécessitent un temps bien trop long dans la recherche ou la saisie pour une restitution sonore artificielle aussi rapide que le langage articulé. L'usage des deux mains ou de la majeure partie de ses doigts est indispensable pour la saisie sur un clavier, obligeant dans ces cas la présence d'un support pour son usage. Ce qui a pour conséquence l'impossibilité de pouvoir utiliser toutes ces méthodes ou ces appareils en 10. tout lieu ou toute circonstance.  Traditionally, the typing of the complete word is necessary for its identification. Other methods of identifying words by phonemes or by 5 syllables exist but require a much too long time in the search or the seizure for an artificial sound reproduction as fast as the articulated language. The use of both hands or most of his fingers is essential for typing on a keyboard, forcing in these cases the presence of a support for its use. This results in the impossibility of being able to use all these methods or devices in any place or circumstance.

Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de remédier à ces inconvénients de par sa tenue et son mode de saisie. Le dispositif repose dans une main dont trois doigts serviront à son maintien et les deux autres à exercer sur la tranche de l'appareil une pression sur les touches (2) et (3). Quant à l'autre main, deux doigts suffiront pour 15. exercer les pressions sur les 60 touches situées en façade de l'appareil. Ce qui a pour effet de pouvoir être utilisable en toute circonstance sans besoin de support, et d'obtenir par la méthode, la rapidité de saisie nécessaire que requière la langue articulée.  The device according to the invention overcomes these drawbacks by its strength and its input mode. The device rests in a hand of which three fingers will serve to maintain it and the other two to exert on the edge of the apparatus a pressure on the keys (2) and (3). As for the other hand, two fingers will be enough to 15. exert pressure on the 60 keys on the front of the device. This has the effect of being usable in any circumstance without the need for support, and to obtain by the method, the necessary speed of seizure required by the articulated language.

Selon des modes particuliers de réalisation; - le boîtier ergonomique sera adapté à la main 20. - l'intérieur du boîtier recevra les composants électroniques, la mémoire son, et le dispositif électrique nécessaire pour son autonomie le boîtier peut comporter un interrupteur de marche et/ou d'arrêt un témoin de marche pourra être prévu - un haut parleur sera également prévu 25. - les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention. La fig. 1 représente la façade de l'appareil.  According to particular embodiments; - The ergonomic housing will be adapted to the hand 20. - The interior of the housing will receive the electronic components, the sound memory, and the electrical device necessary for its autonomy the housing may include a switch and / or stopping a witness a loudspeaker will also be provided. The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention. Fig. 1 represents the front of the device.

La fig. 2 représente la tranche de l'appareil.  Fig. 2 represents the slice of the apparatus.

En référence à ces dessins, le dispositif comporte un boîtier (1) muni de 60 touches formant un clavier décomposé en deux groupes distincts d'abréviations fig. 1.  With reference to these drawings, the device comprises a housing (1) provided with 60 keys forming a keyboard broken down into two distinct groups of abbreviations fig. 1.

30. Un premier groupe dit prioritaire (groupe 1) constitué des 36 abréviations suivantes: D.P.J.C.V.B.DR.PR.T.CR.VR.BR.R.PL.TR.CH.VL.BL.F.G. L.S.LL.GN.FR.GR.M.SS.K.KL. FL.GL.N.SP.X.ST.  30. A first group said priority (group 1) consisting of 36 abbreviations: D.P.J.C.V.B.DR.PR.T.CR.VR.BR.R.PL.TR.CH.VL.BL.F.G. L.S.LL.GN.FR.GR.M.SS.K.KL. FL.GL.N.SP.X.ST.

Et un deuxième groupe (groupe 2) constitué des 24 abréviations suivantes: 35. A.AR.EU.EX.ON.OUI.AI.AIN.é.O.OI.U.AN.IAN.IEU.OU.OR.I.AS.ES. OS.IS.ING. UI.  And a second group (group 2) consisting of the following 24 abbreviations: 35. A.AR.EU.EX.ON.YE.YE.YE.Y.Y.Y.Y.Y.Y.Y. I.AS.ES. OS.IS.ING. IU.

Dans son premier mode d'utilisation: la pression exercée sur deux touches de ces deux groupes reconstitue la syllabe correspondante mais toujours avec comme départ le (groupe 1).  In its first mode of use: the pressure exerted on two keys of these two groups reconstitutes the corresponding syllable but always with as starting the (group 1).

Dans un deuxième mode d'utilisation: la pression exercée sur la touche (2) aura pour effet d'inverser l'ordre décrit dans le premier mode d'utilisation fig 2.  In a second mode of use: the pressure exerted on the key (2) will have the effect of reversing the order described in the first mode of use fig 2.

Dans un troisième mode d'utilisation: la pression exercée sur la touche (3) aura pour effet de désolidariser l'ensemble des abréviations constituées par le (groupe 1) et le (groupe 2).  In a third mode of use: the pressure exerted on the key (3) will have the effect of dissociating all the abbreviations constituted by the (group 1) and the (group 2).

5. Selon des variantes non énumérées, ce dit procédé de décryptage et de combinaisons pourra être utilisé dans le cadre d'autres utilisations; par ex: clavier.  5. According to non-enumerated variants, this method of decryption and combinations may be used for other purposes; eg keyboard.

Et selon une variante non illustrée, le dit boîtier pourrait recevoir un écran tactile reprenant la configuration des abréviations citées cidessus.  And according to a variant not illustrated, the said housing could receive a touch screen with the configuration of abovementioned abovementioned.

A titre d'exemple non limitatif, le boîtier aura des dimensions de l'ordre de: 10. largeur: 75 mm, hauteur: 135 mm, épaisseur 30 mm.  By way of non-limiting example, the housing will have dimensions of the order of: 10. width: 75 mm, height: 135 mm, thickness 30 mm.

Le dispositif selon l'invention est particulièrement destiné aux personnes privées de l'usage de la parole.  The device according to the invention is particularly intended for persons deprived of the use of speech.
