Abstract

(57) [Abstract] [Purpose] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a bar code scanner for reading a bar code on an electronic card for an electronic notebook to facilitate data input to the electronic notebook. [Structure] In the present proposal, a function of a barcode scanner 2 for reading a barcode is added to an electronic card 1 of an electronic notebook. This is a barcode scanner for an electronic notebook in which a barcode scanner 2, a terminal portion 3, and an operation switch 4 are provided on a part of an electronic card 1. By placing the reading portion of the barcode scanner 2 of the electronic card 1 on the surface of the barcode displaying the data of a certain format and moving the barcode in a predetermined direction, the data can be easily input. Further, the data input to the electronic card 1 is stored in the memory section of the electronic card 1 as it is, and can be used as the data of the electronic notebook as needed by a simple operation.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention provides a bar code scanner for reading a bar code on an electronic card for an electronic notebook to facilitate data input to the electronic notebook.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 In recent years, electronic notebooks have been used to manage business cards and addresses, but there are the following methods for inputting data into the electronic notebooks. (B) Input directly with the operation switch of the electronic notebook. (B) Record the data entered in the word processor of the model adapted to the electronic notebook on the electronic notebook electronic card, and either attach the electronic card to the electronic notebook, or connect the word processor and electronic notebook with the connection code. Then, the data is transmitted to the electronic notebook. (C) The data input by the microcomputer is communicated to the electronic notebook.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The above input method has the following drawbacks. (B) When the amount of data is large, a lot of labor is required for inputting. (B) A word processor of a model adapted to the electronic notebook is required. (C) It costs a lot of money to buy a microcomputer and related software. It should be noted that those who are not good at handling electronic devices cannot easily handle the electronic notebook itself, let alone input data into the electronic notebook. This plan facilitates the work of inputting data to the electronic notebook.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 Various electronic cards have been developed for external storage devices and extended functions of electronic notebooks. In the present proposal, a function of a barcode scanner 2 for reading a barcode is added to an electronic card 1 as the external storage device. This is a bar code scanner for an electronic notebook in which a bar code scanner 2, a terminal section 3, and an operation switch 4 are provided on a part of an electronic card 1.

[0005]

[Action]

 The barcode data read by the barcode scanner 2 for the electronic notebook is stored in the memory section of the electronic card 1. The barcode data stored in the electronic card 1 is such that when the electronic card 1 is attached to the electronic notebook, the terminal portion 3 of the electronic card 1 and the terminal portion of the electronic notebook are connected, and the operation switch 4 provided on the electronic card 1 The bar code data stored in the electronic card 1 is input to the electronic notebook via both terminals by performing the necessary operation in.

[0006]

【Example】

 By placing the reading portion of the barcode scanner 2 of the electronic card 1 on the surface of the barcode displaying the data of a certain format and moving the barcode in a predetermined direction, the data can be easily input. The data input to the electronic card 1 is stored in the memory section of the electronic card 1 as it is, and can be used as the data of the electronic notebook as needed by a simple operation. Further, the present invention is not limited to an electronic card, but can be added to an electronic notebook body or can be applied to a pencil type or the like. This proposal intends to utilize a barcode displaying data in a certain format as a means for inputting into an electronic notebook, and is a barcode scanner for an electronic notebook to read it.

[0007]

【effect】

 Since the operation is easy, even if there is a large amount of data, anyone can easily input data into the electronic notebook. Also, there is no need to purchase an expensive word processor or microcomputer to input data. If it is an electronic card that can input and output data as in the case of this proposal, it is possible to input from a barcode or from the operation of the electronic notebook body.
