Abstract

PURPOSE:To constitute a titled device so that even a person having trouble in eyes can confirm easily a key operation, by providing newly a means for generating a sound corresponding to a code of a depressed key. CONSTITUTION:When a key on a keyboard 3 is depressed, a code signal corresponding to this depressed key is sent out onto a bus line 7, also applied to a sound confirming device 6, too, and a sound corresponding to the code signal is uttered. An operator can confirm a key depressed by himself, by this sound.

Description

【発明の詳細な説明】 （技術分野） この発明は音声発生装置を外付は又は内蔵したキーボー
ド装置に関する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Technical Field) The present invention relates to a keyboard device having an external or built-in voice generating device.

（背景技術） 従来、パソコン等のキーボードでは、オペレータがキー
ボード上の電鍵を押下した時、「ピッ」又は「プソ」と
いうような音を出している。しかし、どの電鍵を押下し
た時でも同じ音を出す為、オペレータは自分の押下した
電鍵がわから々い。(Background Art) Conventionally, a keyboard of a personal computer or the like makes a sound such as a "beep" or "beep" when an operator presses a key on the keyboard. However, the same sound is produced no matter which key is pressed, making it difficult for the operator to know which key he or she pressed.

由な人は、オペレータとして作業できなかった。Additionally, telex typewriters, online terminal typewriters, etc. I can't even hear the sound. Therefore, the operator has the disadvantage that the only way to confirm which key he or she has pressed is to look at the echo back or the processing result. Also, visually impaired people could not work as operators.
