Abstract

본 고안은 휴대폰이나 팜컴퓨터 등의 소형 휴대기기를 사용함에 있어서 하나의 버튼을 세부분으로 나누어 각각의 개별 버튼으로 사용할 수 있도록 함으로서, 기존의 일반 컴퓨터 자판과 같이 다양한 문자나 기호를 단 한번에 신속 정확하게 입력하여 쓸수 있는 3분할 키버튼에 관한 것으로서, 종래에는 원하는 문자를 입력하기 위하여 같은 버튼을 여러번 반복하여 눌러 원하는 문자를 찾아내어 입력해야 하는데 따른 많은 시간낭비와 반복동작에 따른 손가락 통증등의 많은 불편한 점이 있었으며, 또한 한개의 버튼에 여러개의 문자나 기능 입력 스위치 접점 누름대를 장착할 경우에는, 이웃한 문자나 기능 입력 스위치 접점이 잘못 눌려서 입력 오류가 발생하는 등의 많은 문제점이 있었다.The present invention divides one button into subdivided parts and uses them as individual buttons when using small portable devices such as mobile phones or palm computers. The present invention relates to a three-part key button that can be used for writing. In the related art, a user needs to repeatedly press the same button several times in order to input a desired character to find and enter a desired character. In addition, when a plurality of characters or a function input switch contact pusher is mounted on a single button, there are many problems such as an input error due to an incorrect press of a neighboring character or a function input switch contact point.

이를 해결하기 위하여 1개의 버튼에 3개의 접점 누름대를 형성시켜 각각의 누름위치에 따라 고유의 문자나 기능을 부여함으로서, 한번만의 누름동작으로 원하는 문자를 신속하게 입력시킬 수 있도록 하여, 시간 절약 뿐 만 아니라 누름 동작 횟수를 훨씬 줄여주어 신체의 피로를 감소시키며, 또한 잘못 눌림 방지 지지대를 설치하여 이웃 문자와의 입력 오류를 최소화할 수 있는 특장점 등을 지닌 3분할 사용가능 키버튼에 관한 것이다.In order to solve this problem, three contact points are formed on one button to give unique characters or functions according to each pressing position. In addition, it is possible to reduce the fatigue of the body by significantly reducing the number of pressing operation, and also provides a three-segment available key button with the feature that can minimize the input error with the neighboring characters by installing a mis-press support.

소형 키패드용 3분할 사용가능 키버튼{Keybutton with Three Input Parts in Small Keypad}Keybutton with Three Input Parts in Small Keypad}

본 고안은 휴대폰이나 팜컴퓨터 등의 소형 휴대기기 이용시 문자나 기능을 입력하기 위하여 사용되는 키버튼에 관한 것으로서, 종래에는 원하는 문자를 입력하기 위하여 같은 버튼을 여러번 반복하여 눌러 원하는 문자를 찾아내어 입력해야 하는데 따른 많은 시간낭비와 반복동작에 따른 손가락 통증 등의 많은 불편한 점이 있었으며, 또한 한개의 버튼에 여러개의 문자나 기능 입력 스위치 접점 누름대를 장착할 경우에는, 이웃한 문자나 기능 입력 스위치 접점이 잘못 눌러져서 입력 오류가 발생하는 등의 많은 문제점이 있었다.The present invention relates to a key button used for inputting a character or a function when using a small mobile device such as a mobile phone or a palm computer, and in the related art, it is necessary to find and input a desired character by repeatedly pressing the same button several times to input a desired character. There are many inconveniences such as waste of time and finger pain due to repetitive operation. Also, when one letter or function input switch contact pusher is attached to one button, the adjacent character or function input switch contact is incorrect. There have been many problems such as an input error caused by being pressed.

이를 해결하기 위하여 1개의 버튼에 3개의 접점 누름대를 형성시켜 각각의 누름위치에 따라 고유의 문자나 기호를 부여함으로서, 한번만의 누름동작으로 원하는 문자나 기능을 신속하게 입력시킬 수 있도록 하여, 시간 절약 뿐 만 아니라 누름 동작 횟수를 훨씬 줄여주며, 또한 잘못 눌림 방지 지지대를 설치하여 이웃 문자와의 입력 오류를 최소화 하는데 있다.In order to solve this problem, three contact presses are formed on one button, and a unique letter or symbol is assigned according to each pressing position, so that a desired character or function can be promptly inputted by a single pressing operation. Not only saving, but also significantly reducing the number of pressing operations, and by installing a support to prevent the wrong pressing to minimize the input error with the neighboring characters.

6. 입력 접점 스위치 누름대6. Input contact switch pusher

기존의 원형 또는 사각형태의 키버튼을 중앙 상부에 기본 누름위치(2)와 좌우 하부 양쪽에 각각 좌측 누름위치(3)와 우측 누름위치(4)의 세부분으로 나누어 놓은 후, 각 누름위치의 바로 아래에 입력 접점 스위치 누름대(6)를 설치하고 각각의 누름위치에 문자나 기호를 부여해 줌으로서, 기존의 일반 컴퓨터 자판과 같이 단 한번만의 누름 동작으로 원하는 문자나 기호를 신속하게 입력시킬 수 있도록 하며, 아울러 이웃 문자나 기호와의 동시 눌림 또는 잘못 눌림을 최소화하기 위하여 좌측 누름위치(3)와 우측 누름위치(4)의 사이에 다른 입력 접점 스위치 누름대보다 길이가 다소 긴 잘못 눌림 방지용 지지대(5)를 설치함으로서, 비록 정확한 누름위치를 다소 벗어난 위치를 누른다 할 지라도, 이웃 문자의 누름대가 영향을 받지 않도록 함으로서 다른 문자 또는 기호의 입력 오류를 최소화 할 수 있도록 고안된 3분할 사용가능 키버튼임.After dividing the existing round or square key button into the details of the basic pressing position (2) on the upper center and the left pressing position (3) and the right pressing position (4) on both the left and right lower sides, respectively, By installing the input contact switch presser 6 directly underneath and giving letters or symbols to each push position, you can quickly input the desired characters or symbols with a single push operation like a conventional computer keyboard. In addition, in order to minimize simultaneous or mis-press with neighboring characters or symbols, a misalignment prevention support longer than the other input contact switch presses between the left push position (3) and the right push position (4) ( By installing 5), even if you press a position slightly outside the exact push position, the other characters will not be affected by the press bar of neighboring characters. Lim is divided into three key buttons available designed to minimize input errors sign.

1개의 버튼에 3개의 접점 누름대를 형성시켜 각각의 누름위치에 따라 고유의 문자나 기능을 부여함으로서, 한번만의 누름동작으로 원하는 문자를 신속하게 입력시킬 수 있도록 하여, 시간 절약 뿐 만 아니라 누름 동작 횟수를 훨씬 줄여주어 신체의 피로를 감소시키며, 또한 잘못 눌림 방지 지지대를 설치하여 이웃 문자와의 입력 오류를 최소화 하는 등의 특장점을 지닌 3분할 사용가능 키버튼임.By forming three contact presses on one button, each character has its own character or function according to each push position, so it is possible to input the desired character quickly by one push operation. It is a three-part key button that has many features such as reducing the number of times, reducing the fatigue of the body, and minimizing the input error with neighboring characters by installing an anti-press support.
