Description

Hangul input device and combination method

The present invention relates to an apparatus for inputting Korean characters using these keys and a method of combining the input keys in an electronic device having a plurality of keys.

Typically, electronic devices such as various telephones or facsimiles have a plurality of keys as a user interface means for allowing a user to perform a unique function or input necessary data. These keys can also be used for Hangul input as needed.

1 illustrates an arrangement of keys for inputting a Korean code according to a character input code standard (TTA KO-0025) using an electronic telephone. To input Hangul, first press the key with the corresponding phoneme and then press the key in this direction to input the phoneme. That is, if you input consonant 'ㄱ', press '1' and press '2' in the 'ㄱ' direction to complete the input of 'ㄱ'.

However, such a Hangul input method is easy for the user to learn easily at the beginning and easy to learn how to use, but the user's key recognition and input convenience are inferior. That is, too many phonemes are arranged in one key, so that it is difficult for the user to distinguish between the phonemes to be input.

2 shows a key arrangement disclosed in Patent Application No. 12078, filed by Chung Hee Sung and filed July 7, 1992 by Applicant. Hangul code input using this key array is a method of inputting various characters using common symbols of characters. In other words, if you enter 'ㄱ', a combination of '→' and '↙ creates one phoneme' ㄱ '.

However, such a Hangul input method is simple and excellent in recognition and can input various characters, but it is difficult for the user to learn at the beginning and the convenience is also low.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a Hangul input device and a combination method thereof, which enables the user to easily learn at an early stage, and has a high key recognition and input convenience of the user.

This Hangul input device for achieving the above object, is used for the input and combination of consonants, respectively 'ㄱ', 'ㄴ', 'ㄷ', 'ㅂ', 'ㅅ', 'ㅇ', ' One-to-one correspondence with '-' and '|', and one-to-one correspondence with '-' and '|' A key that indicates completion of a single Hangul character for separation (' It is characterized by consisting of ').

Hangul input combination method of the present Hangul input device to achieve the above object, the initial state (S ₀ ) waiting for a user input, consonants not used in the combination of consonants ['ㅂ', 'ㅅ', ' ㅇ ',' ㄷ '] is entered (S ₁ ), and the next consonant to combine the consonants and predetermined consonants [' ㄱ ',' ㄴ ',' c ',' ㄹ ',' ㅁ ' , 'ㅈ "," ㅊ "," blah "," ㅌ ", and the state (S ₂₎ for generating a' heh '], double consonants ['ㄲ","ㄸ',' school boy", "ㅆ] the Input the input state (S ₃ ), the state (S ₄ ) of generating a pair of consonants 'ㅉ' of the consonants to be combined, the state (S ₅ ) to generate a single vowel or double vowels by combining vowels, and one consonant State (S ₆ ), a state combining the first consonant (S ₇ ), a state in which one more consonant is input and a consonant or double consonant support (single) is input (S ₈ ), and the second consonant of the consonant and the state (S ₉₎ for executing the combination if the combination is required, like a combination of letters Determining whether to process, and has a state (S ₁₀₎ the one character end of the combination,

When the 'B', 'B', 'ㄷ' is input and the vowel is input, the first process of transitioning to the state (S ₅ ), and if the vowel is input in the state (S ₁ ), the state ( S ₅ ) and the second process of transition to the state (S ₆ ) when the consonant ['ㅂ', 'ㅅ', 'ㅇ', 't'] that does not require a combination is input in the state (S ₅ ). transition third process and the state (S ₅₎ if the consonant required combination at the input, the first combination of the consonant and the second consonant in the state (S ₇₎ 'oi', 'b', 'f', which , 'Four' if the transition to the state (S ₈ ) and the state (S ₆ ) or the state (S ₈ ) when the vowel is input to the state (S ₁₀ ) the state (S ₁₀ ) ₁₀ ) is a _{fifth process} of generating a letter by inputting up to the state (S ₅ ) and inputting the state (S ₆ ) or state (S ₈ ) to the state (S ₀ ) to use for generation of a new character. Characterized in that made.

To indicate that you have completed Use eliminates the confusion of decisions caused by superposition of species and supernovae. Do not enter this key unless there is confusion of finality and initiality. For example, if you enter something like "sick," you won't see things like "know." No need to use

4 shows a Hangul combination state transition according to an embodiment of the present invention. The S ₀ state is an initial state waiting for user input, and S ₁ is a state in which consonants that are not used in combination of consonants, such as 'ㅂ', 'ㅅ', 'ㅇ', and 'ㅍ', are input. S ₂ waits for the next consonant to combine consonants, and the consonants generated in S ₂ include 'ㄱ', 'b', 'c', 'ㄹ', 'ㅁ', 'ㅈ', 'ㅊ', ' ㅋ ',' ㅌ ',' ㅎ ', etc. If 'ㄱ', 'ㄴ', or 'ㄷ' are entered and vowels are entered, the transition is made to S ₅ . S ₄ is a state in which a double consonant 'ㅉ' is generated. S ₃ is a state in which two consonants are input, and 'ㄲ', 'ㄸ', 'ㅃ', and 'ㅆ' are input. If a vowel is entered in state S ₁ , it immediately transitions to S ₅ . State S ₅ combines the vowels to produce a single vowel and a double vowel. In S ₅ , if a consonant that does not require a combination such as 'ㅂ', 'ㅅ', 'ㅇ', or 'ㄷ' is inputted, the state transitions to S ₆ . S ₆ is a state where one consonant is input. S ₈ is a state in which one more consonant is input and a double consonant or a double consonant support (jongseong) is input. If at S ₅ is a consonant required combination type combining the first consonant in S _7, and the second consonant of "oi", "b", "f", "P" and changes to the S _8. The second consonant is also combined in the S ₉ state if necessary. S ₁₀ is a combination of one letter. S ₁₀ decides how to handle the combination of letters. If a vowel is inputted in S ₆ or S ₈ and transitioned to S ₁₀ , S ₁₀ generates one letter with inputs up to S ₅ , and inputs of S ₆ or S ₈ are passed over to S ₀ and used to generate new letters. Do it.
