Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a channel selection remote control transmitter for selecting a desired channel for a receiving device that provides a multi-channel broadcasting service.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, CATV (cable television), B
S (broadcasting satellite), CS (communication
With the development of satellite), multi-channel broadcasting service systems have become popular. Channel selection in these broadcasts is performed using a channel selection remote control transmitter (hereinafter also simply referred to as a remote control). In many cases, one remote controller can select channels such as general television broadcasting, CATV, BS, and CS. However, in order to input these channel numbers, it is necessary to input a two-digit or three-digit number. Therefore, the number input keys (also referred to as ten keys) from "0" to "9" are input twice or three times.
The channel number was fixed by entering it twice.

On the other hand, the invention described below has been proposed from the viewpoint of the occurrence of channel number input error and the labor of input (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 8-265871). According to the present invention, a plurality of channel numbers are displayed on the display block of the remote controller. Further, by storing the viewing information selected by the viewer in the past in the storage means, the channel numbers are displayed on the display block in the order of the number of times of viewing (the order of selection frequency). When selecting a channel, a switch operation such as touching a portion where a desired channel number is displayed in the display block is performed. In this way, the viewer can select a desired channel from the displayed service channels in the order of selection frequency by operating the switch. Therefore, there is an effect that a desired channel can be selected by a simple operation based on the conventional channel selection frequency without prior knowledge of broadcast information.

[0004]

However, all the channel selection information of the channel selected in the past is stored in the viewing information processing unit of the storage unit, the viewing history database is created, and the channels are displayed in order of the channel selection frequency. There is a need. Therefore, the capacity of the ROM or the like that constitutes the storage unit is increased, and the system is also required to be complicated.

Further, when a viewer views a multi-channel broadcast, there is a strong tendency for the viewer to watch a program while holding a plurality of channels and changing the channels in a short time. Therefore, it is necessary to make it easy to switch between these channels. However, since the channels are displayed in the display block in the order of selection frequency, the channel display position varies depending on the selection frequency in the past channel selection history of the current channel. That is, the multiple channels that are being held are not displayed close to each other. Therefore, in such a situation, it takes time and effort to switch channels, and it is not possible to comfortably select a plurality of channels. An object of the present invention is to make channel selection easier and faster,
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a channel selection remote control transmitter having a simplified system.

[0006]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the invention according to claim 1 selects a desired channel from the multiple channels for a receiving device which performs a multi-channel broadcasting service. In the remote control transmitter for channel selection, a storage unit for storing history data of a channel selected in the past, and a channel for reading a predetermined number of history data from this storage unit in the order of selection and displaying the channel The history display means, the direct channel selection means for selecting the desired channel when the desired channel is included in the channels displayed on the channel history display means, and the direct channel selection means. When the desired channel is selected, the data of the desired channel existing in the history data is deleted and And historical data rewriting means for writing the channel data in the storage means as the latest history data,
Channel display switching means for switching the display of the channel history display means to the display of a channel other than the displayed channel in the history data, and by selecting the displayed channels in order, the desired channel is selected. A scroll channel selecting means for selecting a channel, a display of an arbitrary channel among the displayed channels, and an erasing means for erasing the history data corresponding to the arbitrary channel are provided.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, since a predetermined number of history data are displayed on the channel history display means, the user does not need to input a desired channel number, but only selects from the displayed channels. You can tune in. Therefore, as compared with the conventional method of inputting the channel number, the desired channel can be selected easily and quickly even without prior knowledge of the broadcast information of each channel. In addition, the displayed channel is not the channel in the order of the selection frequency in which the history is accumulated, but the updated latest history data, and thus the desired channel is highly likely to be included in the read predetermined number of channels, As a result, the possibility that the channel history display means preferentially displays is increased. Therefore, it becomes possible to select a channel quickly with a simple operation. Further, since the direct channel selection means is provided, the desired channel displayed on the channel history display means can be selected more easily and quickly. Further, since the history data rewriting means is provided, the history data in the storage means can be written and erased,
Even if a new channel is selected, the amount of historical data remains almost unchanged. Therefore, the capacity of the storage means may be small, and the system has a simple structure. Further, by having the channel display switching means, it becomes possible to display more channels regardless of the number of channels which can be displayed at one time on the channel history display means, and therefore, a desired channel is searched and selected. It will be easier and faster. In addition, since the scroll channel selection means is provided, it is suitable for finding a desired channel because it is possible to sequentially select channels and view and switch when a desired channel is not determined. Also, by having an erasing means,
It becomes possible to delete the history data of the channel which is thought to have never been selected once or once again. At this time, as the amount of historical data decreases,
Only the data of the channel that is likely to be selected by the user is selected. Therefore, when searching for and selecting a desired channel, the desired channel can be found more quickly.

[0008]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiments of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a front view showing a schematic configuration of a channel selection remote controller transmitter (hereinafter, simply referred to as a remote controller) of this embodiment, and FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a system of each component of the remote controller.

As shown in FIG. 1, a display unit 12, a delete button 14, a direct channel selection button 16, a channel display changeover switch 18, and a scroll channel channel selection switch 20 are provided on the front surface of the remote controller 10. The display unit 12, the erase button 14, the direct channel selection button 16, the channel display changeover switch 18, and the scroll channel channel selection switch 20 respectively include a channel history display unit, an erasing unit, a direct channel channel selecting unit, and a channel display switching unit. It has a function as a means and a scroll channel tuning means.

The display unit 12 is formed integrally with a liquid crystal display device, but is divided into five blocks 12a to 12e, each of which can display different information. The delete button 14 and the direct channel selection button 16 are composed of five buttons 14a to 14e and 16a to 16e, and are provided at positions corresponding to the display units 12a to 12e, respectively. The number of blocks of the display unit 12 is determined by the operability of channel selection described below and the
Considering the restrictions on the size of the display unit with respect to the size of 0, it seems that about 5 is preferable as in this embodiment, but it is not limited to this, and if there are a plurality, how many. However, it is applicable to the present invention. At this time, the delete button 14 and the direct tuning button 16 are displayed on the display unit 12.
The number of buttons is the same as the number of blocks. Further, the display unit 12 can be applied without being a liquid crystal display device. Furthermore, the display units 12a to 12e may not be integrally formed, but each block may be formed individually.

In addition to the above, on the front surface of the remote controller 10, there are provided a power switch 22, video switching buttons 24a to 24d, a numeric keypad 26 for inputting numbers, an enter button 28, an input switching button 30, and a volume up / down switch 32. ing. The video switching buttons 24a to 24d are buttons for switching when watching television, BS, CS, and video, respectively.

Further, as shown in FIG. 2, inside the remote controller 10, a microcomputer 40 for electrically controlling the operation of each component, a storage unit 50 as a storage unit, and history data as a history data rewriting unit are provided. The rewriting unit 52 is provided, and the signal transmitting unit 6 is provided on the outer front surface of the remote controller 10.
0 is provided. The display unit 12, the storage unit 50, the history data rewriting unit 52, the signal transmitting unit 60, and other input buttons and switches provided on the front surface of the remote controller 10 shown in FIG. 1 are connected to the microcomputer 40, respectively. Has been done.

As the storage unit 50, it is preferable to use a storage medium capable of writing and erasing the storage. In this embodiment, an electrically writable and erasable EEPROM
(Electrically erasable programmable read only mem
ory) is used. As the history data rewriting unit 52,
For example, a normal non-rewritable ROM (read only me
mory) should be used. An infrared LED is used as the signal transmitter 60. Although not shown, the receiving device controlled by the remote controller 10 may be a television, a BS tuner, a CS tuner, a video deck or the like which provides a multi-channel broadcasting service.

The storage unit 50 stores history data of channels selected in the past. The tuning here means that the receiving device such as a television receives a broadcast of a desired channel from the remote controller 10 or an input operation for sending a signal to be received. The history data is a series of channel data groups in which the selected channel is stored in time series based on the channel number selected in the past, the date and time of the channel selection, and the like. Therefore, as will be described in detail later, it becomes possible for the microcomputer 40 to read a predetermined number of history data from the storage unit 40 in the order of selection, that is, in time series.
In 2a to e, a predetermined number of recently selected channels are displayed. Further, the predetermined number may be the same as the number of channels (five in this embodiment) that can be displayed on the display units 12a to 12e. The storage unit 50 preferably has a capacity capable of storing history data of a number of channels larger than the number of displayable channels (5).
The history data rewriting unit 52 stores a program for rewriting the history data in the storage unit 50.

Next, the flow of selecting a desired channel using the remote controller 10 will be described with reference to the drawings.
3A to 3H are schematic diagrams showing the display state of the display unit 12 at the time of channel selection, and FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the flow of channel selection.

History data is written in the storage unit 50, and the channel numbers of the channels forming the history data are arranged in order from the newly selected channel in the order of selection, 1, 2 ,. 3, 4, 5, ... (See the sequence of FIG. 3 (A)). It should be noted that in this embodiment, for simplicity, a one-digit or two-digit number is used, but in reality, it is likely that a two-digit or three-digit number is displayed.

Press the power button 22 to enter the remote control 10
When the power is turned on (S1 in FIG. 4), the history data stored in the storage unit 50 is read out by a predetermined number (five) in accordance with the order selected by the microcomputer 40.
Therefore, the above-mentioned channel numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
Is read. Then, as shown in FIG. 3A, the read channel numbers are displayed as 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 on the display units 12a to 12e (S2 in FIG. 4). In this embodiment, the display unit 12a
Although channel numbers such as 1, 2, ... Are displayed in to e, if the structure is such that not only channel number information but also channel name information is stored in the memory of the remote controller 10, the display unit Channel names can be displayed in a to e.

Then, as shown in FIG. 3A, it is easy to recognize that the channel number of the currently selected channel (here, channel number 1) is blinking in reverse on the liquid crystal display unit 12. .

When there is a desired channel among the channel numbers 1 to 5 displayed on the display units 12a to 12e, the user presses the direct channel selection button 16a to 16e corresponding to the display unit 12a to 12e. By the switch operation (S3 in FIG. 4), a channel is selected and the channel is selected. In FIG. 3B, channel number 3
Shows an example of a desired channel. At this time, the channel number 3 is selected by pressing the direct channel selection button 16c. In other words, by pressing the direct tuning button 16c and inputting, the microcomputer 40
Through the channel number 3 to the receiving device (not shown).
Is transmitted to the signal transmission unit 60. Therefore, infrared rays are emitted from the infrared LED of the signal transmitting unit 60 toward the receiver, and as a result, the receiving apparatus broadcasts the channel number 3.

By having the direct channel selection buttons 16a to 16e, it is possible to tune to a desired channel with one button input, and therefore, it is possible to tune to a desired channel more quickly and easily.

Also, the direct channel selection buttons 16a ...
When the channel is selected by e, the history data in the storage unit 50 is rewritten by the microcomputer 40 according to the program stored in the history data rewriting unit 52 (S4 in FIG. 4). That is, the data of the channel number 3 existing in the history data is erased, and the data of the channel number 3 is written in the storage unit 50 as the latest history data. As a result, the history data array becomes 3, 1, 2, 4, 5, ... As shown in the sequence of FIG.

Since the history data in the storage unit 50 has been rewritten, the display on the display units 12a to 12e is also changed by an instruction from the microcomputer 40 accordingly.
In other words, new history data 3, 1, 2, 4, 5, ...
A predetermined number (five) are read out from the above in accordance with the selected order. Therefore, the channel numbers 3, 1, 2, 4, 5 are read. As a result, as shown in FIG. 3B, the read channel numbers are displayed on the display units 12a to 12e as 3, 1, 2, 4, and 5, respectively (S5 in FIG. 4). .

In this way, the direct channel selection buttons 16a ...
In the case of tuning by e, the history data in the storage unit 50 is
Since both writing and erasing are performed, the amount of history data remains almost unchanged even when a new channel is selected.

When there is no desired channel among the channel numbers 1 to 5 displayed on the display sections 12a to 12e, the channel display changeover switch 18 is input to switch the channel number to be displayed. That is, FIG. 3 (A)
Historical data 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ...
Among them, the display is switched to the display of the channel not displayed on the display units a to e. In FIG. 3A, the channel numbers 1 to 5 are displayed, but by inputting the channel display changeover switch 18 (S6 in FIG. 4), the channel numbers 6 to 5 are displayed.
10 are displayed on the display units 12a to 12e (FIG. 3).
(C), S7 in FIG. 4).

Then, the newly displayed channel number 6
If there is a desired channel number among 10 to 10, it is possible to select the channel by inputting the above-mentioned direct channel selection buttons 16a to 16e. When there is no more desired channel number, the channel display changeover switch 18 is input again to switch the display. This operation may be repeated until the desired channel is found. In FIG. 3D, the case where the channel number 7 is a desired channel number is shown. At this time, the direct channel selection button 16
It suffices to input b (S3 in FIG. 4). At this time, similarly to the description of S4 described above, the old data of the channel number 7 originally existing as the history data is erased, and the channel number 7 is newly written as the latest history data (FIG. 3D). Number sequence of S4 in FIG. 4). Then, 7, 1, 2, 3, according to the order selected from the new history data,
4 are read out, and the channel numbers are displayed on the display sections 12a to 12e (FIG. 3 (D), S in FIG. 4).
5).

Since the channel display changeover switch 18 is provided, more channels can be displayed regardless of the number of blocks of the display unit 12, that is, the number of channels that can be displayed at one time, and therefore, a desired channel can be searched for. It becomes quicker and easier to tune in.

Channel selection can also be performed by inputting the scroll channel selection switch 20 in addition to inputting the direct channel selection buttons 16a to 16e. When the switch operation of inputting the downward scroll of the scroll channel selection switch 20 is performed in the display state of FIG. 3A (S8 of FIG. 4), the display unit 12a is displayed.
In e to e, the channel number 1 is selected and the channel number 2 is selected (FIG. 3 (E), S9 in FIG. 4).
At this time, the channel number 2 is highlighted. Further, when inputting again, the channel number is switched to channel 3 (FIG. 3 (F)), and by repeating this, the channel can be selected by sequentially sending. Therefore, for example, when the desired channel number is 6, by inputting the downward scroll of the scroll channel selection switch 20 five times, the channel number 1 is changed to the channel number 6 selected state. Can be done (Fig. 3
(G)). In addition, the scroll channel tuning switch 20
By inputting the upward scroll, the channel number displayed above one of the channel numbers currently selected is selected. When the scroll channel tuning switch 20 is input, the channel is selected,
It is preferable that the history data in the storage unit 50 cannot be rewritten. This is because other channels are sequentially selected by the time the desired channel is reached. Therefore, by adding all of these channel numbers to the history data, many numbers of channels other than the desired channel are also displayed on the display units 12a to 12e, and the meaning of the present invention is lost.

This scroll channel tuning switch 20
With the above, it is suitable for finding a desired channel because the channels can be sequentially selected and viewed and switched when the desired channel is not determined.

Further, an arbitrary channel number among the channel numbers displayed on the display sections 12a to 12e can be erased by the erase button 14a.
It can also be erased by ~ e. In the display state of FIG. 3A, for example, when it is desired to erase the channel number 4, a switch operation is performed by pressing the erase button 14d to input (S10 in FIG. 4). At this time, the data of the channel number 4 is deleted from the history data of the storage unit 50. Therefore, the array of history data is 1, 2, 3, 5,
6, ... (Sequence of FIG. 3 (H), S11 of FIG. 4), and channel numbers 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6 are displayed on the display units a to e, respectively. (FIG. 3 (H), S12 of FIG. 4). That is, the display of channel number 4 and the history data could be erased.

By having the delete buttons 14a to 14e, it becomes possible to delete the history data of the channel which is considered to have been selected once but not likely to be selected again. At this time, the amount of history data is reduced, and only the data of channels that are highly likely to be selected by the user. Therefore, when searching for a desired channel and selecting a channel by the method described above, the desired channel can be found more quickly.

In addition to the method described above, the channel selection is similar to that of the conventional remote controller. By inputting a desired channel number with the numeric input keys 26 and inputting the confirm button 28 after the input is completed, It is also possible to select a station.

In the above method, when the history of the desired channel cannot be found, it is advisable to select a channel by this conventional method. It should be noted that when the channel is selected by the numeral input key 26 and the channel number is written in the history data, the oldest history data is preferably erased. In this case, a program for performing the writing and erasing when the channel is selected by the number input key 26 may be stored in, for example, the storage unit 52. With such a configuration, the history data can always be updated while maintaining the same data amount of the history data. Therefore, even when the amount of history data that can be stored in the storage unit 50 is small, it can be suitably used.

Further, by using the image changeover switches 24a to 24d, desired images (television, BS, CS, video, etc.)
Can be switched to. Also, input switching button 3
According to 0, select the device connected to the receiver,
The remote control 10 enables channel selection. For example, if the receiver has a plurality of audio input terminals and a plurality of video input terminals, it is possible to select which of the devices such as a VCR, BS tuner, and CS tuner connected to each input terminal is to be operated by remote control. .

Since the remote controller 10 of this embodiment has the above-mentioned configuration, it has two main effects.

First, compared to the conventional method of inputting a channel number, the desired channel can be operated with a simple operation without prior knowledge of broadcasting information (such as knowledge of channel number) of each channel. Moreover, it is possible to tune in quickly. In addition, since the channels are displayed on the display unit 12 in the order of history, it is possible to quickly select a desired channel at the present time, as compared with the conventional method of displaying the channels in order of selection frequency. That is, in the method of displaying in order of selection frequency, even channels that have been frequently tuned in the past but are rarely tuned recently are preferentially displayed. Therefore, the desired channel at the moment is
It may not be displayed easily. On the contrary,
Considering that the channel desired at present is often an interesting channel in recent years, and it is highly possible that the channel has been selected recently, the remote controller 10 according to the present embodiment has a desired channel. , And is included in the read-out predetermined number of channels, and as a result, the possibility that the channel history display means preferentially displays is increased. Furthermore, when there are a plurality of desired channels and the channels are frequently re-selected, it is possible to tune to channels much faster than the method of displaying in order of selection frequency. In other words, if the method of displaying in order of selection frequency occurs, it may not be possible to simultaneously display a plurality of desired channels. Therefore, it is not possible to quickly switch between a plurality of channels, but in the method of displaying channels in the order of history. If so, since a plurality of desired channels are displayed continuously, it is possible to select a channel simply by inputting the direct channel selection buttons 16a to 16e or the scroll channel selection switch 20. Therefore, compared to the method of displaying in order of selection frequency, a plurality of channels can be switched with a simple operation and quickly.

The second effect is that it is not necessary to store all the history data and a part of the history data is erased, so that the capacity of the storage unit 50 is not so large. That is, the direct channel tuning buttons 16a to 16e
As described above, when data is newly selected and data is additionally written, old data of the same channel number is erased at the same time, and as a result, the amount of history data does not change so much. On the other hand, in the method of displaying in order of selection frequency, it is necessary to store all the history data, so a large-capacity storage unit is required. In addition, the history data is data that consists only of the channel number and the date and time of channel selection, whereas the selection frequency data is data that is the result of further calculation from the channel number and date and time, and the processing is complicated. Is. Therefore, the capacity of the storage unit 50 and
This has the effect that the processing system including the microcomputer 40 has a simple configuration.

Next, a modified example of the remote controller of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 5 is a front view showing a schematic configuration of a remote controller of a modified example. In the description of the remote controller 100 of this modified example, only the parts different from the above-described structure of the remote controller 10 will be described, and description of the same parts will be omitted.

The display units 102a to 102e are of a touch panel type. A delete input button 104 is newly provided, however, the direct channel selection button and the delete button are not provided.

The display units 102a to 102e are liquid crystal display panels similar to the above-described remote controller 10 and capable of displaying 5 blocks, but input is performed by touching each block of the display units 102a to 102e with a finger or the like. It is a touch panel type. That is, when a desired channel number is included in the displayed channel numbers, the channel number can be selected by touching the block in which the number is displayed. If there is a channel number to be erased among the displayed channel numbers, the erase input button 10
After inputting by pressing 4, the channel number to be erased can be erased by touching the block in which the channel number to be erased is displayed. That is, in the remote controller 100, the display units 102a to 102e are configured to also serve as the direct channel selection button and the erase button. Other operating methods, operations, and the configuration of the storage unit 50 are the same as those of the remote controller 10.

According to the remote controller 100 of this modification, since the number of buttons and switches can be reduced, the remote controller can be operated more easily and can have a neat and aesthetic appearance.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and it is needless to say that the specific shape, structure and the like can be appropriately changed.

For example, as the storage unit 50, EEPRO
Although M is used, any medium capable of writing data can be used, and for example, EROM, RAM, or another suitable storage medium can be used.

Also, the scroll channel tuning switch 2
In the channel selection by 0, the system that does not write the history data is used, but the system that writes the history data may be used. At this time, scroll channel tuning switch 2
When the channel is selected by 0 and newly written in the history data, at the same time, the data of the oldest channel in the history data may be erased.

[0044]

As is apparent from the above description, according to the first aspect of the present invention, since the storage means and the channel history display means are provided, compared with the conventional method of inputting the channel number. Even if there is no prior knowledge of the broadcast information of each channel, the desired channel can be selected easily with a simple operation. In addition, it becomes possible to easily and quickly select a channel desired at the present time, as compared with a conventional method in which channels are displayed in order of selection frequency. Furthermore, when there are a plurality of desired channels and the channels are frequently re-selected, it is possible to tune to channels much faster than the method of displaying in order of selection frequency. Further, since the direct channel selection means is provided, the desired channel displayed on the channel history display means can be selected more easily and quickly. Further, since the history data rewriting means is provided, the capacity of the storage means may be small,
The system has a simple configuration. Further, by having the channel display switching means, it becomes possible to display more channels regardless of the number of channels that can be displayed on the history data display means, and it is easier to search for and select a desired channel. And it will be quick. In addition, since the scroll channel selection means is provided, it is suitable for finding a desired channel because it is possible to sequentially select channels and view and switch when a desired channel is not determined. Also, by having an erasing means,
It is possible to delete the history data of the channel that seems to never be selected once or once again, so when searching for the desired channel and selecting it, It will be found quickly.
