Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (a) Industrial application field This invention relates to a means for facilitating the operation of pressing numbers with a large number of digits on push buttons for numbers such as push phones.

(b) Prior Art As shown in FIG. 3, conventional numeric pushbuttons have only numerals written on them, and none have alphanumeric characters written in association with the numerals.

(c) Problems to be solved by the invention Facilitate the operation of continuously pressing numbers with a good number of digits.

(d) Means to solve the problem Numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0
and alphabets A, K, S, T, N, H, M,
Y, R, and W are assigned one-to-one, and the corresponding alphanumeric characters are written near each number on the numeric push button.

(e) Effects If we pay attention to the vowels and consonants in the Japanese pronunciation bell, the Japanese kiyone can be broadly classified into 10 groups as shown below.

(1) Vowel (A line) group (2) K (K line) group (3) S (Sa line) group (4) T (TA line) group (5) N (NA line) group (6) H (C row) group (7) M (M row) group (8) Y (Y row) group (9) R (R row) group (10) W (W row) group Here, the voiced sound "゛" and the semi-voiced sound (plosive sound) "゜"
etc., can be placed in the above 10 groups if you promise to consider "゛" and "゜".

The 10 groups classified by
Let it be represented by the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,
When made in one-to-one correspondence with 7, 8, 9, and 0, it becomes a means of indirect numerical expression using the Japanese alphabet.

Specifically, as shown in Figure 4, below the series of numbers you want to express, write down the corresponding alpha alphabet and the lines of the 50 syllables represented by it, and select one letter from each line to correspond to the number. If you create a series of words, they become phrases for indirect numerical expressions.
In this example, the phone number 0435-32-5648 is expressed as "My favorite person."

When converting expressed words back to numbers, you can do it easily by remembering this correspondence relationship, even though you are using all Japanese words, if you use the alphabet above. In the example in Figure 4, "My favorite person" is
Because it is “WaTaSiNoSuKiNaHiToYo”,
Representative sounds “W, T, S, N, K, N, H, T,
If you focus only on “Y”, the number 0435−32−5648
It is easy to convert to .

This kind of spaced number representation makes it easy to remember numbers with long numbers of digits, and when you use this to press the number-like push button, if you write the alphanumeric characters that correspond to the numbers in parallel, you can omit the process of converting them to numbers. Then, from indirect numerical expression, it becomes possible to directly see only the alphabet and press the numerical button.

For example, the indirect numerical expression ``My favorite person'' is ``WaTaSiNoSuKiNaHiToYo'', so by looking at only the alphabetical letters, the representative sounds W, T, S, N, S, K, N, H, If you press the T and Y buttons in order, you will have pressed 0435-32-5648 without paying attention to the numbers.

(F) Examples First Example: As shown in FIG. 1, the corresponding alphanumeric characters are written on the number buttons.

Second Embodiment: As shown in FIG. 2, the corresponding alphabets are written on the board immediately adjacent to the number buttons.

(g) Effects of the invention Compared to the conventional method of pressing numbers directly, this invention allows you to easily press numbers with a relatively long number of digits in succession without forgetting them halfway.
