When the pen 1a is inserted into the interpretation hole 241, the guide posts 244 and the concave chamber 15 located at the center are aligned with each other in addition to the stereotaxic surfaces 14 and 243 positioned on the outer periphery. In this way, the pen is stably and accurately inserted into the reading hole, and can be read accurately.

  Hereinafter, the use function and operation principle of each item in the present invention will be described with another embodiment.

(When "Letter-Word" item is selected in the learning mode)
After selecting “letter-word” with the item selection switch 22 and selecting “learning” with the function selection switch 23, the pen tip recognized portion 12 of the pen 1 a in the pen set 1 is read by the reading hole 241 of the identification reading mechanism 24. Insert into. When one set of identification codes of the pen is read as “23” or the like, the reading hall transmits the data to the central processing unit 25 after receiving the data of the identification code . Then, after conversion into corresponding audio data, the central processing unit controls the display device, and the speaker 26 and the like speak. For example, say "whale" and let the child learn the letter "w" on the label on the pen and the word "whale" on the design (whale design). The purpose of learning can be achieved.

  If the pen is continuously inserted, the central processing unit 25 continues to receive data. At this time, after the central processing unit transmits, the central processing unit transmits continuously at an appropriate number of seconds such as an interval of 2 seconds. And when it exceeds the set number of times, for example, five times, it stops and automatically enters the power saving mode.

(When “Color” is selected in the learning mode)
After selecting “color” with the item selection switch 22 and selecting “learning” with the function selection switch 23, the pen tip recognized portion 12 of the pen 1 a in the pen set 1 is inserted into the reading hole 241 of the identification reading mechanism 24. To do. When the pen identification code set is read as “23” or the like, the reading hall receives the identification code data, and then transmits the data to the central processing unit 25 to convert it into corresponding voice data. Then, the central processing unit controls the display device, and the display device 26 speaks . In other words, this can achieve the purpose of learning the color by uttering the voice of “gray”, for example, and letting the child learn the gray that is the color of the pen.

  If the pen is continuously inserted, the central processing unit 25 continues to receive data. At this time, after the central processing unit transmits, the central processing unit transmits continuously at an appropriate number of seconds such as an interval of 2 seconds. And when it exceeds the set number of times, for example, five times, it stops and automatically enters the power saving mode.

(When “Music” is selected in the learning mode)
After selecting “music” with the item switch 22 and selecting “learning” with the function selection switch 23, the pen tip recognized portion 12 of the pen 1 a in the pen set 1 is inserted into the reading hole 241 of the identification reading mechanism 24. . When one set of identification codes of the pen is read as “23” or the like, the reading hall transmits the data to the central processing unit 25 after receiving the data of the identification code . When the data is converted into the corresponding chord music data, the central processing unit controls the display device and the speaker 26 utters. For example, say a part of the song “Happy Birthday” and enjoy the joy of music.

  If the pen is inserted continuously, the central processing unit 25 continues to receive data. At this time, after the central processing unit transmits, the central processing unit transmits continuously at an appropriate number of seconds such as an interval of 2 seconds. Then, for example, when the set number of times is exceeded, for example, three times, it stops and automatically enters the power saving mode.

(When “character-word” item is selected in test mode)
When “character-word” is selected by the item selection switch 22 and “test” is selected by the function selection switch 23 to enter this mode, the central processing unit extracts data from the “character-word” database by a random number method. Save the data in the temporary memory. For example, after the voice instructs to insert “character-word” determined by the central processing unit such as “w-whale”, it waits for the pen shaft end to be inserted into the interpretation hole 241. If the user (child) does not insert the pen axis continuously, the central processing unit alerts the child for a set number of seconds, for example, once every 9 seconds. Then, after the set number of times of calling attention, for example, 5 times, the power saving state is entered. And after calling attention in the power-saving state, repeat the above-mentioned problem. If the pen is inserted after the central processing unit issues a problem, and the central processing unit compares the pen identification code such as “23” with the data code in the temporary storage memory, the answer is correct. At this time, the central processing unit continuously retrieves data from the “character-word” database by a random number method and stores the data in the temporary storage memory of the database, and then repeats the above-described operation. In addition, the number of consecutively accurate answers is set to 3 times, for example, and the central processing unit automatically extracts a part of the music data by a random number method and transmits a part of the music data, and the speaker 26 speaks. To evaluate.

If the inserted pen shaft end identification code does not match the data stored in the temporary storage memory, an incorrect answer voice is uttered, and the pen identification code is acquired and transmitted to the central processing unit. The data is converted into corresponding voice data and transmitted, and the speaker speaks to inform the contents of the pen currently in hand. As described above, the present invention not only has learning ability, but also can inform the user of the reason for the incorrect answer. After that, the above problem is repeated, and if the number of incorrect answers reaches three consecutive times, the central processing unit newly transmits the next problem from the “character-word” database to the temporary storage memory by the random number method. Cover the data and repeat the above process.

(When “Color” is selected in the test mode)
The item selection switch 22 selects “color”, and the function selection switch 23 selects “test”. The subsequent operation principle is the same as the operation principle for the “character-word” item under the test mode described above.

(When the system performs an action to call attention in a power-saving state)
When the language selection switch 21 is not in the switch-off position, the system can be brought back into operation by simply switching the item selection switch 22, switching the function selection switch 23, or inserting a pen into the reading hall 241. .

  As described above, the preferred embodiment of the present invention has been disclosed, but it is not intended to limit the present invention, and in the scope of the technical idea of the present invention, so that those skilled in the art can easily understand. Since appropriate changes and modifications can be made naturally, the scope of protection of the patent right must be determined on the basis of the scope of claims and the equivalent area.
