Abstract

The present invention relates to an input button and a method for inputting Hangul by efficiently using eight buttons in an electronic device having eight or more buttons, particularly a portable minidisc player (hereinafter, referred to as MD).

The present invention is an eight button '8', 'b', 'b', 'ㅡ', 'ㅣ', 'ㅇ', 'enter', '<-', '- ＞ 'and each of them' ㄱ ',' ㄴ ',' ㅡ ',' ㅣ 'are characterized by expressing all consonants and vowels with different functions at consonant and vowel positions.

According to the above configuration, it is possible to input Korean characters easily and quickly by consistently combining all consonants and vowels with eight input buttons in the electronic device.

Description

8-button Korean input button {.}

The present invention relates to an electronic device having a limited number of keys, and more particularly, to an input button and a method for inputting Hangul in an MD.

In the case of a conventional electronic device having a limited number of keys, for example, a mobile phone, Korean characters have been represented using more than 12 keys. In the case of MD, however, the number of input buttons that can be used to enter characters is limited to about eight. Therefore, it is impossible to apply Korean input method that requires 13 keys of mobile phone to MD. In the case of the conventional MD, English, Japanese, numbers, symbols, etc. can be input, but currently (May 29, 2000) a model that can input Hangul has not been released.

Moreover, as the demand of MD is increasing in Korea and the world these days, the necessity of Hangul input for Koreans and the world is increasing.

In addition, if the input of the Hangul in electronic devices other than MD having more than 8 buttons is possible according to the present invention.

The purpose of the present invention is to place eight symbols such as 'ㄱ', 'ㄴ', 'ㅡ'. 'ㅣ', 'ㅇ', 'enter', '<-', '-＞' at the input button of the electronic device. By using the above input button, all consonants and vowels are consistently combined to provide an input button for Korean input.

Figure 2. 을, ㅗ vowels corresponding to consonant 'b', ㅓ, TT vowels correspond to consonant 'a' according to the present invention

According to the present invention, an electronic device having eight or more input buttons denotes the symbols' ㄱ ',' ㄴ ',' ㅡ ',' ㅣ ',' ㅇ 'enter', '<-', '->'. By placing on each button, an input button for Korean input is provided.

Due to the characteristics of Hangeul, all syllables to form a syllable are consonants + vowels (a syllable composed of vowels such as ah, ya, uh, yo) and consonants + vowels + consonants + consonants + It should be in the form of vowel + consonant + consonant. In other words, vowels inevitably come after the first consonant, and letters are completed or consonant (s) come after the vowels. Different output The consonant position and the vowel position can be distinguished by pressing the enter button after combining consonants or vowels with the five symbols 'ㄱ', 'ㄴ', 'ㅡ', 'ㅣ', 'ㅇ'.

And when the 'a' and 'b' signs are used in the vowel position, it is decided to focus on the fact that a looks like vowel ㅓ, TT and b like vowel ㅏ, TT (Fig. 2).

The syllable can be terminated by entering the '->' button when the syllable is completed.

Hereinafter, the description of the eight signs in the present invention and the Hangul input embodiments (consonants, vowels, syllables and others) according to the present invention will be described based on the attached table as follows.

1. Description of Eight Signs

Ⓛ 'ㄱ', 'ㄴ', 'ㅡ', 'ㅣ' sign

When used in consonant position When used in vowel position

'ㄱ' sign. 1. a consonant. 1. Use as a collection of TT

2. a b consonant and (-), (ㅣ)

Add stroke to stroke.

'ㄴ' code 1. ㄴ as consonant 1. ㅏ, ㅗ as vowel

2. a b consonant and (-), 2. add a collection to a collection

Add stroke to stroke.

'-' Sign 1.a, b, etc. in consonants 1. used as ㅡ vowel

Add (-) stroke 2. In collections such as ㅏ, ㅏ, ㅗ, TT

2.Add (ㅡ) stroke to stroke of (ㅣ), (-), etc.

Add (-) stroke

'ㅣ' sign 1. ㄱ add (ㅣ) stroke to consonant 1. ㅣ use as vowel

2. In vowels such as ㅓ, ㅏ, ㅗ, TT

2.Add (ㅣ) stroke in strokes of (ㅣ), (-), (ㅇ), etc.

(ㅣ) Stroke added

② 'ㅇ', 'enter', '<-', '->' sign

The 'ㅇ' sign is used only at the consonant position and is used to make 'ㅇ' and 'ㅎ' when used in consonants, and to make a sound (ㄲ, ㄸ, ㅃ, ㅆ, ㅉ) combined after the completed flat consonant. .

'enter' sign allows you to input syllables or vowels composed of five signs. And when it is input alone without any consonant input, it deletes and inserts letters between sentences with '<-' and '->' sign.

The '<-' sign is used to move the cursor and in combination with the 'enter' sign to delete a character.

The '->' sign is used to move the cursor, and it is used to float between letters in combination with the 'enter' sign. When a syllable is completed, it is used to distinguish between syllables and syllables.

2. Detailed embodiments of consonants and vowels according to the present invention are as follows.

① Consonant-Refer to Table 1

② Collection-Refer to Table 2

3. A detailed embodiment of several syllables according to the present invention is as follows.

Sense = a + enter , b + enter , b + ㄱ + enter , ->

A ㅏ ㅁ Completion of syllables

Horn = ㅣ + ㅣ + ㅇ + enter , a + ㄱ + enter , a + ㅡ + ㄴ + enter , ->

ㅃ ㅜ ㄹ Complete syllables

Tue = ㅣ + ㅇ + enter , ㄴ + ㄴ + ㄴ + enter , ->

ㅎ ㅘ syllable completion

Chicken = Ao + b + enter, b + enter, Ao + b + b + enter, b + enter, ->

C ㅏ ㄹ a a syllable completion

4. A detailed embodiment of floating between letters and letters according to the present invention is as follows.

① Delete letters

When you delete the 'a' in 'apple'

First move the cursor to the 'ah' using the '<-' and '->' buttons and then press the 'enter' button. Press the '<-' button to delete a letter.

② Float between letters

When you float between 'e' and 'eating' in 'eating rice'

First move the cursor to the 'eat' using the '<-' and '->' buttons, then press the 'enter' button. Press and use the '-＞' button to float between letters.

As described above, according to the present invention, an electronic device that previously could not input Korean due to lack of a button, an electronic device without a Korean input method, or an electronic device that is inconvenient to input Korean by combining a Korean by simply moving a cursor. With eight keys, all consonants and vowels can be combined consistently to provide an input button and a method for entering Korean characters easily and quickly.

Claims (2)

In the electronic device having a limited number of keys, the eight buttons have the symbols 'l', 'b', 'ㅡ', 'ㅣ', 'ㅇ', 'enter', '<-', '->' Input button for Hangul input, characterized in that the arrangement. The method of claim 1, wherein 'a', 'b', 'ㅣ', 'ㅡ' when the consonant position and the vowel position is different from the role of representing all the consonants and vowels to represent the Korean characters Character input method of the electronic device.
