Abstract

The present invention relates to a keyboard, and more particularly, a keyboard including a sliding type delete key or a reverse delete key to prevent a typo when a delete key or a reverse delete key is input and to delete a previously input character.
According to the present invention, the user can feel as if the character is erased by an eraser when the character is deleted by pushing the delete key or the reverse delete key in a sliding manner, and the input method is different from the adjacent keyboard keys, which are normal pressing methods. There is an effect that can prevent the occurrence of typos.

Description

Keyboard comprising delete key or backspace key of sliding type}

The present invention relates to a keyboard, and more particularly, to a keyboard that prevents a typo when an erase key or a reverse delete key is input and deletes a previously input character.

Keyboard input is required for text input of electronic devices such as computers and mobile phones. Such a keyboard includes a delete key or a backspace key for deleting previously input characters.

As shown in FIG. 1, the delete key 10 or the reverse delete key 20 is located at the upper right side of a conventional rudder type keyboard, and presses the delete key 10 or the reverse delete key 20 with a finger like other keys. Pressing the corresponding circuit pressure point in the keyboard will delete the characters previously entered. Therefore, in order to input the key, the key must be pressed more than a predetermined pressure in the vertical direction by using the right-hand finger.

However, in this case, there is a problem in that a typo that frequently presses another key (eg, an insert key, a \ key, etc.) adjacent to the key occurs frequently.

In order to solve this problem, a keyboard was designed to allow the user to press the delete key or the reverse delete key at the bottom of the space bar to press the user's thumb. In this case, the user may press the delete key incorrectly. The problem still exists and this causes a new problem that the user cannot move his thumb freely.

In addition, the touch screen type electronic keyboard also has a keypad arranged on the screen so that the user can input the corresponding character when the user touches the key lightly. There is still a problem that a typo occurs by touching.

The problem lies in that the delete key or the reverse delete key is inputted in the same manner as a normal key, and the present invention adopts a delete key or a reverse delete key different from the conventional press method. An object of the present invention is to provide a keyboard that prevents a typo when a delete key is input.

The present invention is characterized by a keyboard comprising a delete key or a reverse delete key that is input by sliding movement in order to delete previously input characters.

According to the present invention, the deletion key or the reverse deletion key is processed by the sliding method, and when the character is deleted, it feels as if the character is erased by an eraser. There is an effect that can prevent the occurrence.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description of the present invention, if it is determined that a detailed description of a related known function or configuration may unnecessarily obscure the subject matter of the present invention, the detailed description thereof will be omitted.

In addition, the keyboard described below means all character input devices including a pressure-sensitive or capacitive touch screen keyboard in addition to the usual keyboard type unless otherwise specified.

Electronic devices to which the present invention can be applied include all electronic devices requiring character input, such as a desktop, a notebook, a mobile terminal, and the like.

FIG. 2 illustrates a rudder type keyboard 1 in which a delete key 10 and a reverse delete key 20 are separated and input in a sliding manner according to an embodiment of the present invention. However, in the present invention, the deletion key 10 and the reverse deletion key 20 are not necessarily all input in a sliding manner, and any one of them may be input in a sliding manner.

In addition, even if the deletion key 10 or the reverse deletion key 20 is present in a sliding manner, it is assumed that the pressing deletion key 10 'or the reverse deletion key 20' is excluded from a normal position. Therefore, the user may optionally use the delete key or the reverse delete key.

A groove support part 13 engaged with the groove 3 formed in the case 2 forming the exterior of the keyboard 1 is formed in the delete key 10 and the reverse delete key 20 to form the groove 3. Accordingly, as the delete key 10 is slidably moved, the corresponding circuit pressure point 4 inside the keyboard 1 is pressed, thereby deleting the previously input characters and the like. Similarly, the reverse erase key 20 is slid in the same manner and presses the corresponding circuit pressure point 4.

In addition, when the sliding movement to the user's hand to form the locking jaw 21 to the delete key 10 or the reverse delete key 20 to prevent the delete key 10 or reverse delete key 20 in the user's hand. Can be.

The groove 3 is usually located at the bottom of the space bar of the keyboard to facilitate the sliding by using the user's thumb, but is not necessarily in that position.

3 is an enlarged cutaway view of a portion of the reverse erase key 20 of the keyboard 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention. The erasing key 20 has a circuit pressure point corresponding to the protrusion 3 connected to the reverse erasing key 20 while the groove 3 formed in the case 2 and the groove support 13 are slid and engaged with each other. 4) is pressed, the circuit pressure point (4) can be located under the protrusion 11 of the reverse delete key 20, as shown in Figure 3, or is located perpendicular to the direction of movement of the protrusion (11) protrusion It may be pressed by the end of (11). That is, the circuit pressure point 4 is naturally belonged to the present invention in any position where it can be pressed by the sliding movement of the protrusion (11).

In addition, the reverse deletion key 20 may add elasticity by connecting the spring 30 for a natural return after the sliding movement, and for this purpose, a portion of the spring 30 may be contained in the keyboard case 2. A support 12 for supporting the spring 30 may be formed in the space 5 and the reverse deletion key 20. In addition, various elastic bodies such as rubber may be used in addition to the spring 30 to impart the elasticity.

Similarly, since the sliding method of the deletion key 10 is configured and moved as described above, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

FIG. 4 is a front view of the rudder type keyboard 1 in which the integrated delete key 40 integrated with the delete key and the reverse delete key according to another embodiment of the present invention is input in a sliding manner. When the delete function is expressed, and the sliding movement to the other side, the backspace function is expressed.

In this case, only the integrated delete key 40 in which the delete key and the reverse delete key are integrated is different from the above, and the corresponding pressure point is pressed as the sliding movement is as described above.

5 is a front view of the electronic keyboard 1 according to another embodiment of the present invention. The electronic keyboard 1 refers to a touch screen keypad of a pressure sensitive or electric shock type recently applied to a smartphone or the like. There is an integrated delete key 40 in which a bar-shaped delete key and a reverse delete key are integrated on the screen, and the user deletes a corresponding key when the integrated delete key 40 is touched by sliding to a predetermined length or a predetermined length. Or reverse deletion function is expressed. As described above, the delete key and the reverse delete key may be present separately. In addition, this technical implementation is a technology that can be applied to a conventional touch screen will not be described herein.

The technical feature of the present invention is that the corresponding function is expressed by slidingly moving a delete key or a backspace key, and thus, a delete key or a backspace key. Unlike conventional conventional keys, a sliding method is used to prevent typos. There will be advantages.
