Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method of arranging a key-in device in an electronic device, and more particularly, a method of arranging a key-in device in an electronic device capable of displaying a code composition such as a token on a display screen by key-in and combination of codes. Regarding

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, key-in devices such as computer keyboards and touch screens are provided with symbols such as English letters, numbers, punctuation marks and other graphic symbols for each key. When a code composition such as a token is displayed on the display screen, the code can be displayed on the display screen by pressing a key corresponding to the code. Since there is usually a one-to-one relationship between the keys arranged in such a key-in device and the codes corresponding thereto, there is an advantage that a key-in operation is required only once for each code.

However, with the progress of communication technology,
Communication to the Internet or transmission of e-mail is not limited to a computer, and an electronic device such as a mobile phone may be used. Therefore, key-in is not only by the keyboard for the computer but by a keypad for the mobile phone. Sometimes. As shown in FIG. 5, the conventional mobile phone 11 includes a keypad 12 and a display screen 13.
It has and. The keypad 12 is divided into 4 lines and 1
It has two keys, and from left to right and from top to bottom, every key is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8,
One of the numbers 9 is noted in order. Subsequent to that, the symbols *, 0 (number) and # are also noted in the latter three keys. The keys corresponding to the respective keys are also written on the respective keys as follows. That is, the code groups of A, B, and C corresponding to the keys noted in 2 above, the code groups of D, E, F corresponding to the keys noted in 3 above, and G and H corresponding to the keys noted in 4 above. , I code group, J, K, L code group corresponding to the key noted in 5 above, M, N, O code group corresponding to the key noted in 6 above, corresponding to the key noted in 7 above P, Q, R, and S code groups, T, U, and V code groups corresponding to the keys noted 8 above, W, X, Y, corresponding to the keys noted 9 above
Z code group.

When attempting to key-in the A, the key noted 2 is pressed once, and when attempting the key-in the B, the key noted 2 is pressed twice and the C is keyed-in. In this case, the key noted in 2 above is pressed three times. That is, the number of times a key is pressed is determined based on the arrangement order of the codes corresponding to the key in the key. For this reason, there is a drawback that the key-in procedure becomes slower because the number of times the key corresponding to the code is pressed increases as the order of arrangement of the code that is used more frequently comes later.

If the number of codes or the number of code groups that support the code composition such as lexical characters is increased, the number of keys is also increased, which makes the key-in procedure more complicated.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above, an object of the present invention is to provide a method for arranging a key-in device in an electronic device that can display a code composition such as a lexical phrase on a display screen with a smaller number of presses than the conventional one. It is in.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for arranging a key-in device in an electronic device capable of displaying a code composition such as a lexical character whose code is richer than ever before on a display screen without increasing the number of keys. To try.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is a method for arranging a key-in device in an electronic device capable of displaying a code composition such as a token on a display screen by key-in and combination of codes. , A common code distribution step that divides a common code used for a given lexical representation method into a plurality of common code groups in its original order, and a plurality of special codes that may be used for code composition such as lexical And a number of keys as key-in keys for codes, that is, the number of groups of the plurality of common code groups and the number of groups of special code groups, A key installation step of sequentially arranging and arranging a plurality of keys having a number of codes having the largest number of codes in the plurality of common code groups more than the sum of Number of keys to be used as the key-in key in order, and then, in the selected key, first, the keys are distributed in order as the common code keys so as to correspond to the plurality of common code groups, and subsequently, ，
In addition to the plurality of special-purpose code keys except the common-use code key, a key is distributed as a special-purpose code key so as to correspond to the plurality of special-purpose code groups, and each key selectively distributed as described above is When none of the code groups is displayed on the display screen, the code selected and displayed so far can be erased for a while by pressing, and the code group corresponding to the key can be displayed on the display screen. And a step of providing the first function of the key-in key configured as described above, and when any one of the code groups is displayed on the display screen, each key of the key-in key is pressed on the display screen, Instead of displaying the code group, a code in the order corresponding to the arrangement order of the key-in keys of the key of the displayed code group is selected. And to provide a method for arranging key-device in an electronic device comprising a second allocating step of the function of key-keys be configured to be able to display together with the code selected ever.

In the method of arranging the key-in device in the electronic device of the present invention, the code is divided into a common code group and a special code group, and each of them corresponds to a key-in key. The number of codes can be increased as much as possible so that the same page can be displayed on the display screen. However, since the number of codes of the group having the largest number of codes is made smaller than the number of keys of the key-in key, for a predetermined key-in By pressing the key,
For the first time, the code group corresponding to the key is displayed on the display screen, and by pressing the second time, the codes in the order corresponding to the arrangement order of the key group of the code group displayed on the display screen are displayed. It can be selected and displayed together with the code selected so far. That is, the key-in device of the electronic device according to the arrangement method of the present invention, when trying to key-in a predetermined code, first presses a key corresponding to a code group including the code, and the display is accompanied by the pressing. The code can be displayed on the display screen by selecting and pressing a key from the key-in keys based on the arrangement order of the code in the code group displayed on the screen. Therefore, the key-in device of the electronic device according to the arrangement method of the present invention can display on the display screen by pressing the key-in key only twice with respect to one of the common symbols, and therefore, the number of pressings is less than that of the conventional case. It is possible to display a code composition such as a lexical number on a display screen by a number.

Further, as described above, the key-in device of the electronic device according to the arrangement method of the present invention is not limited to the code shown on the key surface as in the prior art, but any code of the code group corresponding to the key can be used. Since it is also possible to display, it is possible to display a code composition, such as a lexical phrase, which is richer in code than before, on the display screen, without increasing the number of keys.

The above and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description of the embodiments with reference to the drawings.
