Description

Chinese character input device of character processor

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a word processor, and more particularly, to a device for inputting Chinese characters.

There are considerable difficulties in inputting Chinese characters through character processors, which are different from English, Japanese, and Korean characters. In other words, Chinese character is not a character expressed by consonant or vowel like Hangul. In order to input Chinese character, it is necessary to designate all Chinese characters on the keyboard one by one. However, only about 1000 kinds of commonly used Chinese characters , It is difficult to configure a keyboard having about 1000 keys, and it is difficult for the user to search for the corresponding key.

In order to solve such a problem, conventionally, a method of using a Chinese character hunting or a method of using the number of strokes and strokes has been used.

As a representative example of using the Chinese characters, it is widely used in Korea . , The user inputs a Chinese character hunting using a Korean keyboard, displays all Chinese characters having the Chinese character, and the user selects a corresponding Chinese character among the displayed Chinese characters. For example, if the user wishes to display a Han Chinese character, the user inputs the Chinese Han Chinese character and presses the function key F 9, the Chinese characters having the Han corresponding to one are displayed on the display window as shown in FIG. 1, The desired Hanja Han will be selected.

However, this method has to go through a process of selecting one Chinese character among a plurality of Chinese characters having the same character, so that it is inconvenient to perform an unnecessary process when the user knows the Chinese character and the meaning of the Chinese characters accurately . This problem can be solved by adopting a method of converting the Chinese characters "Han" and "Han" into Chinese characters (Han = Han in FIG. 2) through a predetermined input window as shown in FIG.

However, this method has a problem that it can be used only when it knows the meaning and meaning of the Chinese character. As a method for solving such a problem, there is a method of using the method used in the Chinese character, that is, can do. Fig. 3 shows an example of a case in which such a method is employed. The number of strokes of 11 strokes in addition to the number of strokes, The stroke number of 3 is input, and 11 strokes are inputted, and then the corresponding Han is selected.

Figs. 4 and 5 illustrate a method of inputting Chinese characters using hunting in China and Japan, respectively. In Chinese, Han is pronounced as Han, but there is no letter to input Han as Han The alphabetic character han, which is an English alphabetic character, is input, and Han can be input through a process as shown in FIG. In contrast to this, Japan has the character Gana, And the Han can be inputted through the process as shown in FIG.

However, there is a problem that such a method can not be used in the case where the number of Chinese characters and the number of Chinese characters are unknown. In this case, there is a problem that a general user tries to use the rough hunting or the number of copies and then gives up.

In addition, this method has a problem that it is almost useless to people other than Chinese characters and unfamiliar kanji culture.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a Chinese character display device capable of simply inputting Chinese characters using the shape of a Chinese character.

According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided an apparatus for displaying Chinese characters, comprising: a keyboard configured with keys corresponding to basic strokes of Chinese characters; A storage unit for storing basic strokes constituting the Chinese character and stroke order thereof; And a processor for searching for the Chinese character of the storage unit corresponding to the order of the basic strokes inputted through the keyboard and displaying the search result on the display means.

Description of the Related Art [0002]

1: keyboard 2: microcomputer

3: Monitor 4: Storage unit

First, the background of the present invention will be briefly described as follows.

The inventor of the present invention has devised a method for resolving the above-mentioned problem by decomposing and inputting Chinese characters as in Korean.

The simplest way to do this is to divide the Chinese character into Chinese characters that form the part number. For example, And the husband are synthesized, the input can be performed by four key operations in total. However, since the number of collocations of Chinese characters reaches 231, the corresponding number of keys must be configured to accommodate them, and the size of the keyboard becomes enormously large, which makes it practically useless.

In order to solve such a problem, the inventor of the present invention has found out that the basic strokes of high cardiovascular and Chinese characters can be divided into about 25, and that all the Chinese characters can be constituted as each basic stroke. That is, the 25 basic strokes are smaller than the number of keys of the existing keyboard, so that it is possible to input Chinese characters by using the existing keyboard. Also, as the method of inputting the Chinese characters, basic strokes are inputted according to the stroke order of Chinese characters, It becomes possible. In addition, the inventor has found that the utility is increased by adding a small number of basic strokes to 25 basic strokes as described later.

In the case of a Chinese character with a large number of strokes, it is doubtful that the key should be inputted over several tens of times, which leads to a decrease in efficiency. According to the investigation of the inventor of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 6 to FIG. 9, There is no kanji exceeding a total of 26 strokes at all, and the distribution is unexpectedly small even for adult use. In other words, in the case of Chinese characters for middle school, the number of Chinese characters in 8-10 strokes is large, and the total number of Chinese characters seems to increase as they move from high school to adult. Therefore, the input efficiency is about 1/3 ~ 1/4 lower than the Korean and the alphabet, but the input efficiency can be increased when using the conventional method.

Next, the basic stroke of the Chinese character invented by the present inventor will be described as follows.

In constructing the basic strokes for inputting Chinese characters, it is desirable to be faithful to the conventional strokes so as not to confuse existing Chinese character users. That is, in the case of Is properly decomposed, Is a case of mis-disassembling and it is a case that it is divided too much beyond the basic stroke number as if it can not be disassembled from Hangul into ㅡ + ㅅ.

On the other hand In the case of Or Is the same as the case where it can not be decomposed into ㅇ + 마 in Hangul.

Also, it has been found out that it is desirable to make it possible to input a key by repeatedly inputting frequently used subsidiaries. In other words, ㅁ + a + ㅡ, silver in, The . However, these kanji are widely used, and it is desirable to set them as the basic stroke and the basic number.

The present inventor has set a basic stroke as shown in FIG. 10 by the above-described method.

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention embodying the concept of the present invention will be described in detail.

Fig. 11 is a block diagram for implementing the present invention. A keyboard 1 having a keyboard corresponding to the above-described basic stroke is connected to the processor 2. Fig. Here, the keyboard 1 is configured as shown in Fig. Here, the keyboard layout of the Chinese character does not distinguish between consonants and vowels different from Hangul. However, as shown in the present embodiment, a stroke in the right direction from left to right, a stroke in the right direction to the left direction The arrangement on the left side will be effective for memorizing the user. Of course, considering the frequency of use of the basic strokes, the arrangement position should be considered.

In this way, the information of the basic strokes applied from the keyboard 1 should be displayed on the monitor 3 after being processed through the processor 2. Here, the Chinese character will not be completed with only the information about the basic strokes. That is, the basic stroke The processors are able to < RTI ID = 0.0 > Can be displayed on the display on the monitor 3, When this is input It is not possible to know at what position to display in correspondence with the position information. Therefore, it may be displayed as shown in FIG. 13 (a) or may be displayed as shown in (b).

The present inventor has solved this problem by the following two methods.

The first is a method of using the Chinese stroke order and the other is the information of the Chinese character stroke set. This is explained as follows.

First, the method of using the stroke order of Chinese characters is as follows. The Chinese character is a set of basic strokes as described above, and the order in which these basic strokes are written is determined. Therefore, the stroke order for each Chinese character is stored in the storage unit 4 connected to the processor 2, and the processor 2 can complete Chinese characters corresponding to the stroke order. For example, The processor 2 determines whether or not After displaying the stroke of In the storage unit 4, the Chinese character corresponding to the stroke number corresponding to the number of strokes. In this case, if there are two Chinese characters corresponding to, for example, Figs. 13A and 13B, both of them are displayed, or one of them is displayed. However, The processor 4 may again determine that the stroke corresponding to < RTI ID = 0.0 > If a Chinese character with such a stroke order is found, F On the monitor (3).

In the following method, a basic code is assigned to each basic stroke, and only basic strokes forming each Chinese character and its Chinese characters are stored in the storage unit 4. That is, when the user sequentially inputs the basic strokes in a loosely-written form as described above to form a predetermined Chinese character, the processor 2 stores the Chinese character composed only of the basic strokes into the storage unit 4 without displaying the input intermediate character, And displays the corresponding Chinese character on the monitor 4.

In this case, the completion of the Chinese character is displayed insufficiently as the basic stroke is input, but the completed character is completely displayed after all the basic strokes are input (e.g., Fig. 14)

In addition, since predetermined codes are designated for inputting through the keyboard in each of the basic strokes, compatibility with the existing standard Chinese character code can be maintained by using the converter. That is, as shown in FIG. 14, a converter for changing a set of basic strokes forming a single Chinese character to an existing Chinese character code can be configured to maintain compatibility with a conventional character processor.

Here, in forming one Chinese character, the completion of one Chinese character, that is, the input of the basic stroke for one Chinese character should be indicated, the processor must know that the input of the basic stroke for one Chinese character is completed It is possible to use a separate key, and it is preferable to use the space key of the existing keyboard as such a key.

As shown in FIG. 15, there are different Chinese characters having the same basic stroke, and examples thereof are (husband, heaven), (self, 已, 巳), (thick, dog) (Person, 8), and so on. In this case, the processor 2 would preferably display all the corresponding Chinese characters as shown on the monitor 3 and have them select one of them. In the above-described examples, the person and the person 8 are heard in the above-described case, and in this embodiment, the basic strokes are different from each other As a result, t27). It will be easily understood by those skilled in the art that the distinction is sure.

As described above, according to the present invention, a Chinese character keyboard is formed as a basic stroke that constitutes a Chinese character, so that a Chinese character can be easily input. Therefore, even a person who does not know a Chinese character can input Chinese characters. In addition, this method has a considerable effect on education of Chinese characters using a word processor.
