Abstract

In terms of input for Chinese-language electronic devices, the double Pinyin system is an ideal input method that reflects phonological structures of the Chinese language. However, it is difficult to assign twenty-one initials and thirty-five finals to a computer keyboard comprising three rows and ten columns, even with the exclusion of the special syllable "er". As such, there has been a method involving a conventional method of automatically switching between an initials keyboard and a finals keyboard during input, wherein one set of two perfectly complementary finals in terms of the relation to the immediately preceding initial is assigned to the same key, thereby achieving simultaneous input with a single press of the key. However, in this method, there is no complementary relation in finals connected to a so-called zero initial, i.e., finals not connected to an initial, and no one-to-one correspondence between pronunciation and keystroke sequence can be established. The present invention is configured such that, in the case of a so-called zero initial, one of the initials of the set is invoked when an initial code key for instructing input of a zero initial is pressed once, and the remaining final is invoked when the key is pressed twice in succession. This achieves perfect one-to-one correspondence between the pronunciation of a Chinese character and a keystroke sequence.

Description

Chinese electronic device input method

The present invention relates to an input method for a Chinese electronic device.

Currently, in Chinese electronic devices, when inputting Chinese based on phonemes, there are roughly two methods.
The linguistic principle on which the first relies is that Chinese is used with its own phonetic code, which is divided into broad consonants (vowels) and broad vowels (finals). Even in this case, a unit of phonemes is collectively displayed by one code, which is called a sound injection method.
In this sound injection method, each unit was initially expressed by a unique code. However, at present, a method is generally used that is expressed in a Romanized manner by alphabets or alphabets that basically correspond to this code. Is called the “pin” method in the broad “pin” sound method.
The characteristic of the double pin in this broad phonetic system is that, in principle, all the vowels are understood as a combination of broad consonants (vowels) and broad vowels (finals). Adopting this double pin method.
The second is a method that displays the phonetic alphabet using Chinese alphabets and inputs the alphabet used for this phonetic as it is, and this is the whole “Pin” method in the broader “Pin” sound system. That's it.
Actually, the whole pin method is derived from the sound injection method at the stage of this double pin method, and is not a method having an original phonological basis.
These two input methods have quite different personalities in terms of human interface.
In the bi-pin method, b, p, m, f (lip sounds), d, t, n, l (lingual sound), g, k, h (lingual root sounds), j, q, x (lingual sound) ), Zh, ch, sh, r (rolling tongue sound), z, c, s (toning tooth sound), and a group of vocals having a certain phonological characteristic, In the case of a final denominator, a single vowel is first a according to the degree of opening, arranged in the order of o, e, i, u, u, followed by a double vowel in the order of ai, ei, ao, ou, then ending in n and ng in the order of an, en, ang, eng, ong Single vowels are lined up, followed by i (note y or i) in front of these vowels, followed by these vowels. The phoneme with the same character is one, such as u (notation is w or u), u (notation is yu or u, u, or v. In the present invention, v is used) continues. After being summarized, the phonemes are arranged regularly, paying attention to the tendency of the phoneme to change to another phoneme.
That is, the bi-pin method is a phonetic method corresponding to the Chinese phoneme system, and the arrangement of the alphabet is also arranged according to the phoneme system.
On the other hand, in the all-pin method, each alphabet is treated as the smallest unit of homogenous pronunciation regardless of the Chinese phoneme system, and the initial is 1 to 2 It is usually expressed in alphabets, 1 to 4 alphabets, and arranged on the keyboard according to the qwerty method regardless of the Chinese phoneme structure.
In other words, in the all-pin method, each character unit is treated as an atom that does not directly correspond to the phonological structure, whereas in the double-pin method, each character unit is Is treated as a molecule that has a corresponding relationship with the phonological structure.
Thus, in terms of the human interface, in principle, the superiority of the twin pin system is clear.
However, in an actual input action, there are 21 (two when er is added) and 36 (37 when er is added) finals, and there are 21 finals. It was a difficult task to arrange the 3 on the keyboard of a 3 × 10 personal computer.
Therefore, in general, the all-pin method is overwhelmingly dominant.
However, ideally, as can be seen in the following three types of Japanese patent documents, the broad consonant (vocal) and the broad sense are based on the Romanized double sound method. A method has been established in which all the initials and finals are arranged on the keyboard of a personal computer having 3 rows and 10 columns by a method in which vowels (finals) are automatically changed according to keystrokes.
Each of these methods is an excellent method that produces the same effect as doubling the number of keys of a single real keyboard at a time, but they are actually released as promising products. Absent.
A common feature of these patent documents is that two or more finals are set in duplicate on one key and input simultaneously.
The basis for this is that, in the second patent document described later, in the bi-pin method, even if “vowels that are exclusive to the connection relationship with the immediately preceding consonant” are placed in the same key, In the third patent document, the same problem is regarded as a problem of complementarity in the connection between the initial and final.
Both are substantially the same problem, but as can be inferred from the combination of finals set by these three documents in common, for example, ong and yang, or yang and wang, Therefore, it is more reasonable to think of phonetics as complementarity or exclusivity produced by complementarity, because the similar finals cause the opposite situation in connection with the initials.
The problem commonly seen in these three documents is that when two sets of finals are set for the same key on the basis of this “exclusiveness” or “complementarity”, the connection between the initial and final Although the relationship is unambiguously determined, if it is not connected with the initial, a complementary relationship is basically not established between the two finals.
For example, when yang and wang are input at the same time, 100% exclusivity or complementarity is seen when this final is connected to the initial, but when this final is input without being connected to the initial (so-called zero). In the case of consonant, that is, zero phoneme), there is no unambiguous correspondence between the syllabary and the keystroke sequence, and at least 33 kanji for yang and at least 16 kanji for wang correspond. Needs to make a manual decision with reference to a pre-registered dictionary.
Therefore, in the case of these three Japanese patents, the bi-pins used there are not completely compatible with the all-pin methods in any case, It is necessary to prepare unique software for each selected final combination.
In the case of these three documents, software that removes ambiguity as a system is prepared, and further manual determination is required. The basic problem that causes such a situation is the problem in these inventions. This is because there is no unambiguous correspondence between kanji sounds and keystroke sequences.
Patent Document 4 described later solves the problem that a unique correspondence is not established between the kanji sound and the keystroke sequence.
In this patent document, in 36 finals of the twin-pin method, the initials of the note values i, u, u placed at the beginning of the alphabet spelling of the finals are respectively y, w, v, so to speak, Formally incorporated into the side of the vocal.
In the present invention, by setting the keystroke of the semi-vowel key to be an exception to the automatic alternation system of the vocal vowel keyboard and the final vowel keyboard, the basic automatic alternation system of the vocal vowel keyboard and the final vowel keyboard is not disturbed. Is set to
In the case of this method, three keys that are turned to the vowel side as half vowels increase as y, w, and v on the vowel keyboard, but a total of 21 vowel keys can be omitted, so The keyboard can be composed of 15 final keys, and the voice keyboard can be composed of a total of 26 keys including 24 voice keys, one voice key, and one key er.
This method has a great meaning as a realization of a dual-pin input method in which Kanji characters and keystroke sequences correspond one-to-one.
This is because, in the all-pin method, a technique and a dictionary for determining a specific character sound have already been realized by a specific key stroke sequence. This is because, by replacing it with a specific keystroke sequence of the “pin” method, this dual pin method can realize a new input method without developing new technologies in the programming language and machine language stages.

Patent document JP2012-85249

As described above, in the invention using the complementarity found in the connection between the initial and final letters found in the

prior art documents

1, 2, and 3, there is a complete 1 between the kanji sound and the keystroke sequence. Whereas the one-to-one correspondence is not seen, in the method in which the letters y, w and v found in the prior art document 4 are made independent as semi-vowels, a complete one-to-one correspondence between the kanji and the keystroke sequence is used. Therefore, when the two are compared, the superiority of the latter is obvious.
However, in the invention of this prior art document 4, it is said that the kanji sound is input as a final vowel placed on the final vowel keyboard after inputting a vowel or a vowel or semi-vowel placed on the vowel keyboard. When the input is performed in accordance with the basic rule of automatic keyboard change (input of 1 kanji with 2 keystrokes), after entering the initial on the vocal keyboard and then entering the final vowel of the vocal keyboard again In case of input that does not comply with the basic rule of inputting the final key placed on the keyboard and automatically changing the voice key keyboard and the final key keyboard (input of one kanji with three keystrokes), two input methods are set. Become.
Adopting these two input methods at the same time not only puts a certain psychological burden on the input person, but the fact that the input of 1 kanji with 2 strokes and the input of 1 kanji with 3 strokes is mixed It becomes a factor that goes crazy.
There are a total of 421 Chinese kanji sounds, that is, syllables representing kanji, excluding special examples such as fiao, ng, hm, hng, etc. However, when this method is adopted, er is 1 Entered by keystrokes, vowel + final vowel 225, voice vowel + final vowel 15, half vowel y + final vowel 10, half vowel w + final vowel 8, half vowel v + final vowel 3, subtotal 262 is two keystrokes, final vowel + half vowel y + final vowel 79 , Vowel + semi-vowel w + final vowel is 69, vowel + semi-vowel v + final vowel is 11, subtotal 159 is input with 3 keystrokes.
That is, for all Chinese syllables 421, 0.24% is input with one keystroke, 61.999% is input with two keystrokes, and 37.77 is input with three keystrokes. %.
That is, in the present invention, the input of the two-stroke key is basic, but the input of the three-stroke key is also close to 40% of the whole and has a specific gravity that cannot be neglected.
The method that appears in this prior art patent document 4 has a high degree of completeness, and further improvement seems impossible.
On the other hand, the methods shown in

Patent Documents

1, 2, and 3 have room for improvement.
In particular, in the method that can be seen in Patent Document 3 and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2010-267237, a set of two finals set there shows complete complementarity when they are combined with the initial, so that they are If this is solved by some method for the lack of complementarity when input as a single final, it is possible to achieve a perfect match between the sound and the keystroke sequence.
In the connection relationship with the immediately preceding initials determined by Patent Document 3 and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2010-267237, the finals having complete complementarity are on and yong, ya and wa, yo and wo, yang and wang, ying and weng. , Wei and yue, wan and yuan, wen and yun, 16 sets of 8.
Therefore, when these finals are input without being connected to the immediately preceding initials, that is, in the case of input with a so-called zero initial, it is determined in the keystroke sequence which one of these two finals is input. If possible, even in this method, the kanji sound and the keystroke sequence correspond one-to-one.

The present invention pays attention to this point, and in Patent Document 3, when the key key set for input with a so-called zero phoneme key is pressed once, two key keys set to one key key are set. One of the finals is called, and the final is not called by one keystroke of the vocal key of the two finals that is set as one key with two consecutive keystrokes. Is set to be called, thereby realizing a perfect one-to-one correspondence between kanji sounds and keystroke sequences.
Therefore, in the present invention, for the final keyboard that is called immediately after the voice key is input, basically, the method that appears in Patent Document 3 and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2010-267237 is inherited. We will propose a unique method for the final keyboard that is called immediately after it is played.
First, the final keyboard that is called immediately after a voice key is input takes the following form.
In the right half of the 3 rows and 10 columns keyboard, a, o, e, i, u, u. ai, ei, ao, ou. an, en, ang, eng. Set each final of.
The specific arrangement is ai in the first row and the sixth column of the keyboard of 3 rows and 10 columns, ei in the seventh column, ao in the eighth column, and ou in the ninth column. 2nd row 6th column a, 7th column o, 8th column e, 9th column i, 10th column u. 3rd row 6th column an, 7th column en, 8th column ang, 9th column eng, 10th column u. It becomes the one that puts.
In the left half of the 3 rows and 10 columns keyboard, ya and wa, yo and wo, ye, yao, and you. yan, yin, yang and wang, ying and weng, yang and ong. wai, wei and yue, wan and yuan, wen and yun. Set each final of.
The specific arrangement is as follows: yan in the first row, first column, yan in the second column, yang and wang in the third column, ying and wing in the fourth column, and ong in the fifth column. And yong. The second row, the first column, ya and wa, the second column, yo and wo, the third column, ye, the fourth column, yao, and the fifth column, you. Wai in the third row and first column, wei and yue in the second column, wan and yuan in the third column, wen and yun in the fourth column. It becomes the one that puts.
That is, the final vowel keyboard called immediately after the input of the voice vowel key of the present invention is arranged such that a final vowel containing no semi-vowel is arranged in the right half of the keyboard of the 3 rows and 10 columns, and a final vowel containing a semi-vowel is arranged in the left half. The most basic phonemes are arranged in the second column of both the right half and the left half, but the principle of the overall arrangement basically follows the arrangement of the standard Chinese phoneme table.
As already described, in the final keyboard that is called immediately after this vocal key is input, one set of two final characters that are simultaneously set to one key is one of them according to the input initial. Is automatically selected.
For example, when a key that sets both ong and ong is pressed after the initial letter zh is input, ong is automatically selected and input, zhong, that is, Chinese characters such as the middle and the public, and the initial letter x is input. Later, when a key with both ong and yong is set at the same time, yong is automatically selected and input, and xiong, that is, a kanji character such as male or elder brother is input.
Next, a unique method of the present invention is proposed for a final keyboard that is called immediately after a vocal key is pressed.
In the present invention, in the case of inputting 8 sets of 16 finals showing complete complementarity in connection with these immediately preceding initials by inputting the initial key and using the so-called zero initial key, A method is used to specify which of the finals of each set is selected depending on whether the key is pressed twice or consecutively, and the central problem here is 16 sets of these 8 sets. Which one of the finals is called by one keystroke of the phonetic key, and which one is called by two consecutive keystrokes of the phonetic key.
Of course, it is expected that it is reasonable to call a frequently used final in Chinese with a single keystroke key, but there are 8 sets of 16 finals. Since the situation that perfect complementarity appears in relation to is defined by the Chinese phonological structure, it is desirable in this case as well to adopt a method corresponding to the entire Chinese phonological structure.
Now, as a guideline for measuring the frequency of the appearance of these 8 groups of 16 characters in Chinese, these characters are listed in the Chinese-Japanese dictionary jointly edited by the Chinese business stamp library and the Japanese Shogakukan. When counting the number of pages that occupy only ng0 and ong34, ya36 and wa16, yo4 and wo21, yang33 and wang16, ying52 and weng16, wei84 and yue29, wan37 and yuan45, wen24 and yun10.
The order in which the 8 sets and 16 letters are expressed in each set is based on the order of the standard Chinese syllable arrangement.
That is, among the 8 sets of 16 finals, the standard Chinese syllable arrangement order matches the order of appearance frequency of the finals in Chinese. Ya36 and wa16, yang33 and wang16 , Ying52 and weng16, wei84 and yue29, wen24 and yun10.
In the case of ong0 and ong34, the former does not appear as Chinese syllables at all, and the basis of the standard syllable arrangement of Chinese is that the vowel y is superior to the vowel w In this case, when taking the degree of lip as a reference, it can be determined that the resistance of the input person is small even if the arrangement of ong 34 and ong 0 is taken.
Therefore, among the 8 sets of 16 finals, 5 cases in which the order of the standard Chinese syllable arrangement matches the order of appearance frequency of those finals in Chinese and 1 case in accordance with it. As a criterion for judgment, the combined finals were arranged in the order of standard Chinese syllable arrangements, and the previously arranged finals were called with one keystroke key key and arranged later. Let's call the other final key with two keystrokes of the vocal key.
As described above, the skeleton in the case of inputting 8 sets of 16 finals, which show perfect complementarity in the connection with the immediately preceding initials in the present invention, by inputting the vocal key key instead of the vocal key and inputting them by the so-called zero vocal key has been shown. Hereinafter, the final keyboard composed of this skeleton will be specifically shown for each case where the key key is pressed once or continuously twice.
First, a final keyboard in the case where one of these eight sets of 16 finals is called by one keystroke of a vocal key is shown first.
In the right half of the 3 rows and 10 columns keyboard, a, o, e, i, u, u are provided in the same manner as the final keyboard that is called after the input of the voice key. ai, ei, ao, ou. an, en, ang, eng. Set each final of.
The specific arrangement is also exactly the same as the final keyboard that is called after the input of the voice key, and ai in the first row, sixth column of the keyboard of 3 rows and 10 columns, ei in the seventh column, and in the eighth column ao, ou in the ninth column. 2nd row 6th column a, 7th column o, 8th column e, 9th column i, 10th column u. 3rd row 6th column an, 7th column en, 8th column ang, 9th column eng, 10th column u. It becomes the one that puts.
In the left half of the 3 rows and 10 columns keyboard, there are ya, yo, ye, yao and you. yan, yan, yang, ying, ong. wai, wei, wan, wen. Set each final of.
The specific arrangement is as follows: yan in the 3rd row, 1st column, yan in the 2nd column, yang in the 3rd column, ying in the 4th column, and ong in the 5th column. The second row, the first column, ya, the second column, yo, the third column, ye, the fourth column, yao, and the fifth column, you. 3rd row, 1st column, wai, 2nd column, wei, 3rd column, wan, 4th column. It becomes the one that puts.
Next, the final keyboard in the case where a portion that is not called by one keystroke of the vocal key key is called by two consecutive keystrokes of the voice key key among all the final symbols including these eight sets of 16 finals. Indicates.
In the part belonging to the right half of the final keyboard of the present invention, there is no setting of two finals in one key, so all the finals in this part are called by one keystroke of the vocal key. Become.
In the left half of the 3 rows and 10 columns keyboard, wa and wo were not called by one keystroke of the vocal key of the 8 groups and 16 finals. wang, weng, ong. yue, yuan, yun. Set each final of.
The specific arrangement is as follows: wang in the first row and third column of the keyboard of 3 rows and 10 columns, wing in the fourth column, and ong in the fifth column. Wa in the second row and first column, wo in the second column. 3rd row 2nd column yue, 3rd column yuan, 4th column yun. It becomes the one that puts.
Next, the structure of the initial keyboard of the present invention is shown, which basically coincides with Patent Document 3 and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2010-267237.
That is, it is b, p, m, f, vocal note on the right half of the keyboard. d, t, n, l, er. g, k, h. To the left half of the keyboard, j, q, x. zh, ch, sh, r. z, c, s. It becomes the one that puts.
Its specific arrangement is the right half of the keyboard of 3 rows and 10 columns, that is, b in the 1st row and 6th column, p in the 7th column, m in the 8th column, f in the 9th column, and the first note in the 10th column. . D in the second row, sixth column, t in the seventh column, n in the eighth column, l in the ninth column, er in the tenth column. G in the third row and sixth column, k in the seventh column and h in the eighth column. The left half of the 3 rows and 10 columns keyboard, that is, j in the first row and first column, q in the second column, and x in the third column. Zh in the second row, first column, ch in the second column, sh in the third column, r in the fourth column. 3rd row, 1st column, z, 2nd column, c, 3rd column, s. It becomes the one that puts.
There are three types of keys on the keyboard: a vocal key, a vocal key, and an input key for the character er. When the vocal key is pressed, the initial set voice is input and the final key is called. When the initial key is pressed, the final key is called in a zero initial state. When the input key of the letter er is pressed, the letter er is input and the vocal keyboard is called again.
After the total of 23 keys of these three types are set on this vocal key keyboard, 7 keys remain. In the present invention, input of a code is set for each of these 7 keys.
More specifically, they are, (comma). (Punctuation), (reading),? (question mark),! (Exclamation point), <<>> (double parenthesis), (round parenthesis), but these codes are similar to the input of the letter er, and when these input keys are typed, these codes Is set so that the initial keyboard is called again.
In the case of the final keyboard, there are two keys that remain after the voice key is input and the key that is called after the key key is input. In the present invention, the voice key and er key are set on the voice key. No input is set for the key at the specified position.
This is because when a key key is pressed twice in succession on the voice key keyboard, if any function is set to the key key at the same position, confusion occurs, and the er key can be called immediately after the key is pressed. This is because the final key cannot be set.
In setting the initial keyboard, further, the complementary relationship between the initials already established in the connection relationship with the final name immediately proposed by the aforementioned Patent Document 3 and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2010-267237, that is, the initials g and j, k and q, A complementary relationship established between h and x can be used.
The vocal keyboard of the present invention using the complementary relationship established between the initials g and j, k and q, and h and x is as follows.
That is, it is b, p, m, f, vocal note on the right half of the keyboard. d, t, n, l, er. g and j, k and q, h and x. Zh, ch, sh, r in the left half of the keyboard. z, c, s. It becomes the one that puts.
Its specific arrangement is the right half of the keyboard of 3 rows and 10 columns, that is, b in the 1st row and 6th column, p in the 7th column, m in the 8th column, f in the 9th column, and the first note in the 10th column. . D in the second row, sixth column, t in the seventh column, n in the eighth column, 1 in the ninth column, er in the tenth column. Place g and j in the third row and sixth column, k and q in the seventh column, h and x in the eighth column, the left half of the keyboard of 3 rows and 10 columns, that is, zh and second in the first row and first column. Ch in the row, sh in the third row, r in the fourth row. Z in the second row, first column, c in the second column, and s in the third column. It becomes the one that puts.
In this case, since the key for setting the initial, j, q, x becomes empty, three more codes can be set for the initial keyboard.
More specifically, they are: (Period),-(hyphen), "" (European parenthesis), there are three types corresponding mainly to European input, but these codes are also input when these input keys are typed. At the same time, the voice keyboard is set to be called again.
The present invention described above uses a double-pin method, and in the input of a Chinese electronic device having an automatic alternation system according to the input of a vocal keyboard and a final keyboard, it is completely in the connection relationship with the immediately preceding vocal. When a pair of two finals having complementarity is placed on the same key, this complementarity does not hold in the case of input with a so-called zero voice initial, so it is provided for input with a zero initial. Depending on whether the voice key is pressed once or twice, it is determined which one of the set of two finals should be selected, so that 1 between the input Chinese character and the keystroke sequence is determined. A one-to-one correspondence is realized.
Also, in Patent Document 4 and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2012-85249 cited above, an important technique for designing a 3 × 5 small input keyboard is shown.
In this input method, the y, w, and v sounds whose preconditions are placed at the beginning of the final vowel are made independent as semi-vowels, and the preconditions are different from the present invention. This is useful when designing the following input method for a 3-by-5 keyboard of the present invention.
At the core of this technique is a small electronic device with a 3-row, 5-column keyboard that uses a double-pin method and has an automatic alternation system according to the input of the voice keyboard and final keyboard. When applied to the input electronic device, each of the voice keyboard and the final keyboard has a three-row, five-column basic and final vowel keyboard and a basic and final vowel keyboard. The basic keyboard and the continuation keyboard are connected by using the final keyboard continuation key, and the overall operation corresponds to a keyboard of 3 rows and 10 columns.
The present invention adopts the basics of the input method disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2012-85249 when applying the above-described input method for a 3 × 10 keyboard to a 3 × 5 keyboard. However, since the present invention adopts a method in which the y, w, v, placed at the beginning of the final mother are made independent as semi-vowels, which are placed on the vocal vowel keyboard, as a prerequisite. When entering xianqian in a word, the key keyboard is: x (vowel) i (formal phonetic) an (phonetic) q (vowel) i (formal phonetic) an (phonetic) As an exception to the automatic alternation system according to the input of the final keyboard, it was necessary to set the voice keyboard to be input twice.
However, in the case of the present invention, as in the same manner, a 3 by 5 column initial key keyboard and initial vowel continuation keyboard and final vowel basic keyboard and final vowel continuation keyboard are set, and a separate prepared vowel keyboard continuation key and final vowel keyboard continuation key are used. Prepare and connect this basic keyboard and the continuation keyboard to operate as a 3 × 10 keyboard as a whole, but here there is no semi-vowel setting, so input at this point Rhythm collapse can be prevented.
The central point of the difference between the present invention and the input method disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2012-85249 is the difference in the handling of semi-vowels, and in the present invention, the final keyboard that is called when a voice is input on the vocal keyboard. When a souvenir key is input with the voice keyboard and so-called zero-vowel input is set, the final keyboard to be called is distinguished.
Therefore, in designing the 3 × 5 input method, it is necessary to design a final keyboard corresponding to the initial input and a final keyboard corresponding to the initial input.
The specific form of the 3 × 5 keyboard of the present invention designed based on the preconditions as described above is as follows. The present invention can be applied to both a vocal keyboard and a final keyboard. The right half of the 3 rows and 10 columns keyboard is the basic keyboard and the left half is the continuation keyboard, which are connected by a separate keyboard continuation key.
The basic key keyboard is b in the first row and first column, p in the second column, m in the third column, f in the fourth column, and the first note in the fifth column. , D in the second row, first column, t in the second column, n in the third column, l in the fourth column, er in the fifth column, g in the third row, first column, K in the 2nd row and h in the 3rd row.
The vowel continuation keyboard has j in the first row and first column, q in the second column, x in the third column, d in the second row and first column, and d in the second column. t, n in the third column, l in the fourth column, g in the third row and first column, k in the second column, and h in the third column.
Then, at the beginning of input or when a final is input, this basic initial keyboard is automatically called, where the initials b, p, m, f, d, t, n, l, g, k, When any one of h is input, the final keyboard is automatically called, and when the vocal note is pressed, the final keyboard with the zero initial is called.
When it is necessary to input a vocal key other than these vocals and vocal vowels, when the basic key keyboard is called, when a separate vocal key continuation key is pressed, the vocal continuation key is called and placed on this keyboard. When any of the stored initials, j, q, x, zh, ch, sh, r, z, c, s, is input, the final keyboard is automatically called.
The configuration of the final keyboard of the present invention is also made by playing the final keyboard with the right half of the 3-row 10-column keyboard of the present invention as the basic keyboard and the left half as the continuous keyboard. Connect them together.
At this time, in the case of 3 rows and 5 columns, it is necessary to set a keyboard that is almost twice as large as the keyboard of 3 rows and 10 columns. The left half of the keyboard is called the initial key keyboard, the right half is called the continued voice keyboard, and in the case of a 3x10 keyboard, the keyboard corresponding to the right half of the final keyboard that is called after the initial is input. The keyboard corresponding to the left half of the basic keyboard corresponding to the initial pronunciation corresponds to the right half of the final keyboard that is called after the first key is typed in the case of the continuous pronunciation final keyboard corresponding to the initial pronunciation and the 3 rows and 10 columns keyboard. The keyboard corresponding to the voice note is referred to as the key keyboard corresponding to the left note, the keyboard corresponding to the left half is referred to as the vowel key corresponding to the voice note, and the key keyboard that is called after the voice key is consecutively pressed twice is referred to as the key keyboard corresponding to the heavy voice. .
Therefore, the basic key keyboard corresponding to the initials is ai in the first row, first column, ei in the second column, ao in the third column, ou in the fourth column, and ou in the second row. A in one column, o in the second column, e in the third column, i in the fourth column, u in the fifth column, an in the third row, first column, en in the second column , Ang in the third column, eng in the fourth column, and u in the fifth column.
The phoneme-compatible final continuation keyboard has yan in the first row, first column, yin in the second column, yang and wang in the third column, ying and weng in the fourth column, In the fifth column, long and long, in the second row, the first column, ya and wa, in the second column, yo and wo, in the third column, ye, in the fourth column, yao, in the fifth column, you, In the third row and first column, wai is placed, in the second column wei and yue, in the third column wan and yuan, and in the fourth column wan and yun are placed.
The keynote key keyboard corresponding to the phonetic note is ai in the first row, first column, ei in the second column, ao in the third column, ou in the fourth column, ou in the second row, first in the third row and fifth column keyboard. A in the column, o in the second column, e in the third column, i in the fourth column, u in the fifth column, an in the third row, first column, en in the second column, Ang in the third column, eng in the fourth column and u in the fifth column.
The phoneme note corresponding final continuation keyboard has yan in the first row, first column, yin in the second column, yang in the third column, ying in the fourth column, and ong in the fifth column. In the second row, first column, yo in the second column, ye in the third column, yao in the fourth column, you in the fifth column, wai in the third row, first column, Wei is placed in the second column, wan is placed in the third column, and wen is placed in the fourth column.
The key keyboard corresponding to a heavy voice note has wang in the first row, third column, wing in the fourth column, ong in the fifth column, wa in the second row, first column, In this case, wo is placed in the second column, yue in the third row and second column, yuan in the third column, and yun in the fourth column.
More specifically, the kanji sound input according to the present invention as described above is shown in FIG. 1. It is a key that is input when the input is started or when the final character is input, and then the main key is input and the final character is input. In the first case of entering the keyboard and at the stage when the basic key keyboard is called, enter the vocal keyboard continuation key and enter the vocal continuation keyboard. There is a second case.
In this case, whether it is a vowel key continuation key or a final key continuation key, the action is to cancel the basic keyboard that hits the input order and place the continuation keyboard at that position. These are expressed as a basic key keyboard (voice key continuation key), a vowel key, or a final key keyboard (keyboard continuation key).
In the first case,
1. Main key keyboard → Main key keyboard
2. Vocabulary basic keyboard → Vocabulary compatible final key keyboard (Femother key continuation key)
3. Main key keyboard → Final key keyboard corresponding to the initial note,
4). Basic key keyboard → Final key keyboard corresponding to final note (Final key keyboard continuation key)
5. There are five cases: main key keyboard → main key basic keyboard → female key keyboard corresponding to heavy vocals.
For example, 1 is input to the initial key keyboard corresponding to the initials by inputting f on the basic key keyboard, where a is input to input fa (modulus) as a whole, and then lu (temperament) is input in the same procedure. This is the case.
2 is input to the basic key keyboard corresponding to the initials by inputting b on the basic key keyboard. ) Is input, and then jian 疆 is input in the same procedure.
No. 3 is a key key keyboard that is used to key in a voice key note once, and then enters a key note-compatible final key key keyboard, where a is input, a (a) is input as a whole, and yi ( This is the case where 姨) is entered.
No. 4 is used to enter the final key keyboard corresponding to the initial note by keying the final note once with the basic key keyboard, and then entering the final note key corresponding to the final note key by entering the final key corresponding to the final note key. This is a case where “ye” is input and then “you” is input in the same procedure.
No. 5 is a basic key keyboard that is used to key the vocal vowel twice in succession to enter the key keyboard corresponding to the heavy vocal vowel, where wang is input and wang as a whole is input, followed by the same procedure. This is a case where yue (about) is input.
In the second case,
1. Continuation key keyboard → Vocabulary basic key keyboard,
2. There are two cases: a vowel continuation keyboard → a vowel-supported vowel basic keyboard (a vowel keyboard continuation key), a vowel-supported vowel continuation keyboard.
For example, 1 is input to the initial key keyboard corresponding to the initial pronunciation by inputting r on the continued voice keyboard, where i is input and ri (date) is input as a whole, and then qi (period) is input in the same procedure. This is the case.
2. Enter zh on the vowel continuation keyboard and enter the vowel-compatible final vowel basic keyboard, where you enter the vowel keyboard continuation key and enter the vowel-compatible vowel continuation keyboard, where you enter ong and zhong (middle) as a whole Followed by jian (interval) in the same procedure.
In addition to this basic input method, the present invention also provides g, j, and k that have perfect complementarity in the connection relationship with the final term shown in Patent Document 4 and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2012-85249. An input method is also proposed which combines input methods in which q, g and x, each of three sets of six initials are set to the same key.
When this method is applied to a personal computer, the three keys for inputting g, k, h, or j, q, x are omitted. Can be added.
Furthermore, if this method is applied to the 3 × 5 keyboard of the present invention, more effective results can be obtained.
In this case, in the input method using the 3 × 5 keyboard, the initial g and the initial j are input simultaneously using the same key, and the initial k and the initial q are input simultaneously using the same key. h and phoneme x are placed on the same key and input at the same time. By this, three phonetic keys j, q, and x can be transferred from the phoneme continuation keyboard to the phoneme basic keyboard. Therefore, when inputting these initials, it is not necessary to input the initial keyboard key.
The basic keyboard of this method is a keyboard of 3 rows and 5 columns, b in the first row and 1 column, p in the second column, m in the third column, f in the fourth column, and the phoneme in the fifth column. D in the second row and first column, t in the second column, n in the third column, l in the fourth column, er in the fifth column, g in the third row and first column j, k and q in the second column, and h and x in the third column.
The vowel continuation keyboard has zh in the first row and first column, ch in the second column, sh in the third column, r in the fourth column and r in the second row and first column. z, c in the second column, and s in the third column.
Then, when the input is started or when the final is input, this basic initial keyboard is automatically called, where the initials b, p, m, f, d, t, n, l, g When any one of j, k and q, and h and x is input, the final keyboard is automatically called, and when the final note is played, the final keyboard with zero initial is called.
When it is necessary to input a vocal key other than these vocals and vocal vowels, when the basic key keyboard is called, when a separate vocal key continuation key is pressed, the vocal continuation key is called and placed on this keyboard. When one of the entered initials, zh, ch, sh, r, z, c, s, is input, the final keyboard is automatically called.
In this input method, the composition of the final keyboard, that is, the basic key keyboard corresponding to the initial pronunciation, the final pronunciation keyboard corresponding to the initial pronunciation, the basic basic keyboard corresponding to the final note, the continuous final pronunciation keyboard corresponding to the final note, and the final note keyboard corresponding to the heavy note. The correspondence relationship between the initial key keyboard, that is, the basic key keyboard and the initial continuation keyboard is the same as that in the case where the above-mentioned one vocal key is set as one vocal key.
The principle of the arrangement of the vocal key and the final key on the keyboard of the present invention is to follow the sequence of the arrangement of the Chinese syllable table as much as possible for both the initial and the final. In some cases, the arrangement starts with the right hand part of the right half, and in the case of a 3 × 5 keyboard, it starts with the basic keyboard that enters first.
However, the above arrangement has some problems when viewed from the human interface.
That is, when viewed from the input of the initial, the right-handed stake in a personal computer or the basic keyboard stake in a 3-row, 5-column keyboard is 1 for a phonetic, b, p, m, f, 12 of d, t, n, l, g, k, h, er, or b, p, m, f, d, t, n, l, g and j, k and q, h and x, er, In the left hand or 3 rows and 5 columns keyboard, the continuation keyboard has 10 shares of j, q, x, zh, ch, sh, r, z, c, s, or Since there are seven zh, ch, sh, r, z, c, and s, the input action burdened by the right hand is heavier than that of the left hand.
However, when viewed from the input of the final, the right-handed stake in a personal computer or the basic keyboard stake in a 3-by-5 keyboard is ai, ei, ao, ou, a, o, e, i, 14 in u, u, an, en, ang, eng, or 8 in wang, weng, on, wa, wo, yue, yuan, yun, on the left hand or 3 rows and 5 columns The stakes in continuation keyboards are: yan, yin, yong, on, yang, wang, ying, weng, ya, wa, yo, wo, ye, yao, you, wai, wei, yue, wan, yuan, Wen, yun, 22 or yan, yin, yang, ying, yong, ya, yo, ye, yao, you, wai, wei wan, wen, a fourteen, because the responsible syllable is large, the input act of the left hand of the burden, the left hand of heavier than it.
Of course, the selection of the part of the final key connected to the initial that has two syllables assigned to one key is automatically made by its complementarity, but it becomes almost unconscious. However, since it is necessary for the input person to input that many syllables, it becomes a potential psychological burden.
In consideration of this point, the present invention also proposes a keyboard having an arrangement slightly different from the above syllable arrangement.
First, in the case of a personal computer, the syllable is arranged from the upper left to the lower right in both the case of the initial and the final. To do.
In the case of a vocal keyboard, the code is placed in the first column of the left half of the keyboard, the symbols b, p, m, and f are placed in the second column, and the symbols d, t, n, and l are placed in the third column. Furthermore, g and j, k and q, h and x, zh, ch, sh, r, er are placed in the second column in the first row of the right half of the keyboard, and z, c, s, code, voice note.
More specifically, in the case of a vocal keyboard, the left half of the keyboard, i.e., the first row, first column to fifth column of the keyboard receives input of codes, and b in the second row, first column. , P in the second column, m in the third column, f in the fourth column, code in the fifth column, d in the third row and first column, t in the second column, n in the third column, and n in the fourth column l.
The right half of the keyboard, that is, g and j in the first row and sixth column of the keyboard, q in the seventh column k, h and x in the eighth column, code in the ninth column, code in the tenth column, second row 6th column zh, 7th column ch, 8th column sh, 9th column r, 10th column er, 3rd row 6th column z, 7th column c, 7th column s , The code in the 9th column and the vowel in the 10th column.
That is, in the case of a final keyboard, the left half of the keyboard that is called after the input of the initial is ai in the first row, first column, ei in the second column, ao in the third column, ou in the fourth column, U in the fifth column, a in the second row, first column, o in the second column, e in the third column, i in the fourth column, u in the fifth column, an in the third row, first column, the second column , En in the third column, eng in the fourth column, the right half of the keyboard is yan in the first row, sixth column of the keyboard, yin in the seventh column, yang and wang in the eighth column, 9th column, ying and weng, 10th column, long and ong, 2nd row, 6th column, ya and wa, 7th yo and wo column, 8th column, ye, 9th column, yao, 10th column, you , Wai in the third row and sixth column, wei and yue in the seventh column, wan in yuan in the eighth column, and wen and yun in the ninth column.
In the case of a final keyboard, the left half of the keyboard that is called after a single input of a vocal note is ai in the first row, first column, ei in the second column, ao in the third column, ou in the fourth column U in the fifth column, a in the second row and first column, o in the second column, e in the third column, i in the fourth column, u in the fifth column, an in the third row and the first column, The second column is en, the third column is ang, the fourth column is eng, the right half of the keyboard is the first row, sixth column, yan, seventh column, yin, eighth column, yang, 9th column, yong in the 10th column, ya in the 2nd row, 6th column, yo in the 7th column, ye in the 8th column, yao in the 9th column, you in the 10th column, 3rd row, 6th The column is wai, the seventh column is wei, the eighth column is wan, and the ninth column is wen.
In the case of a final keyboard, only the right half of the keyboard is called after the second continuous input of the initial, and the first row, eighth column of the keyboard is wang, the ninth column is wing, the tenth column is ong, The second row and the sixth column are wa, the seventh column is wo, the third row and the seventh column are yue, the eighth column is yuan, and the ninth column is yun.
Also in this case, the code and er placed on the vocal keyboard are set so that the vocal keyboard is called immediately after it is input.
In the case of the present invention, the arrangement of codes is in the left half of the vocal keyboard, in the first row and first column of the keyboard,, (comma), in the second column, (reading marks), in the third column. (Punctuation), in the fourth column,. (Period), 5th column, • (middle black), 2nd row, 5th column,-(hyphen), 3rd row, 5th column,-(bar), right half of the keyboard, keyboard first The first row, the ninth column, () (paren), the tenth column, <<>> (double square brackets), the third row, the ninth column, "" (European parentheses), and also the sign FIG. 1 shows the drawing.
The following is a keyboard configuration of a small input electronic device of 3 rows and 5 columns based on the syllable arrangement of the personal computer.
In this case as well, basically, the right half of the above-mentioned personal computer's voice keyboard and final keyboard are the basic keyboard, the left half is the continuous keyboard, and they are connected by the vocal keyboard continuous key and the final keyboard continuous key. However, there is a difference that the key input function cannot be set for the key of the vowel continuation keyboard at the position where the er is placed and the position where the vowel note is placed on the basic key keyboard.
The first key of the main key is g and j in the first row and first column, q in the second column k, h and x in the third column, () (parentheses) in the fourth column, << in the fifth column >> (double square brackets), zh in the second row and first column, ch in the second column, sh in the third column, r in the fourth column, er in the fifth column, z in the third row and first column, C in the second column, s in the third column, "" (European parenthesis) in the fourth column, and the vowel in the fifth column.
The vowel continued keyboard is in the first row, first column of the keyboard,, (comma), second column, (reading), third column. (Punctuation), in the fourth column,. (Period), the fifth column receives the input of (middle black), b in the second row and first column, p in the second column, m in the third column, f in the fourth column, D in row 3, column 1, t in the second column, n in the third column, and l in the fourth column.
In the case of a final keyboard, the basic key keyboard called after the input of the initial is: yan in the first row and first column, yan in the second column, yang and wang in the third column, ying and weng in the fourth column, 5th column, ong and ong, 2nd row, 1st column, ya and wa, 2nd column, yo and wo, 3rd column, ye, 4th column, yao, 5th column, you, 3rd row, 1st row The column is wai, the second column is wei and yue, the third column is wan and yuan, and the fourth column is wen and yun.
The final base continuation keyboard called after the input of the initial is ai in the first row, first column, ei in the second column, ao in the third column, ou in the fourth column, u in the fifth column, second row A in the first column, o in the second column, e in the third column, i in the fourth column, u in the fifth column, an in the third row, first column, en in the second column, ang in the third column , Eng, in the fourth column.
The final key keyboard that is called after a single entry of the phonetic note is yan in the first row, first column, yan in the second column, yang in the third column, ying in the fourth column, ong in the fifth column, 2nd row 1st column ya, 2nd column yo, 3rd column yo, 4th column yao, 5th column you, 3rd row 1st column wai, 2nd column wei, 3rd The column is “wan” and the fourth column is “wen”.
The final continuation keyboard that is called after one input of the phonetic note is ai in the first row and first column of the keyboard, ei in the second column, ao in the third column, ou in the fourth column, u in the fifth column, 2nd row 1st column a, 2nd column o, 3rd column e, 4th column i, 5th column u, 3rd row 1st column an, 2nd column en, 3rd column Place ang in the row and eng in the fourth row.
The final continuation keyboard that is called after the second continuous input of the initial is wang in the first row and third column, weng in the fourth column, ong in the fifth column, wa in the second row and first column, and second column Wo, third row second column yue, third column yuan, and fourth column yun.
In these cases as well, the code and er placed on the initial key keyboard are called immediately after they are entered, and the code placed on the continued voice keyboard is also entered. Then, immediately after that, it is set so that the initial key keyboard is called.
In both the case of the vocal keyboard and the final keyboard, the letters and symbols of the 3-by-5 keyboard that sets the letters to be input to the basic keyboard from the latter half of the syllable table are shown in FIG. .

The following is a brief comparison of specific input situations between the dual input method of the present invention and a general all-pin input method.
In the personal computer of 3 rows and 10 columns described at the beginning of the present invention, a case in which characters to be input are arranged on the keyboard from the right half according to a general syllable table will be specifically examined.
In other words, in this method, the right half of the vocal keyboard of the 3 × 10 keyboard inputs b, p, m, f, d, t, n, l, g, k, h, er, and a vocal note. The left half is applied to the input of j, q, x, zh, ch, sh, r, z, c, s, and the right half of the final keyboard is ai, ei, ao, ou, a , O, e, i, u, an, en, ang, eng, u, the left half is yan, yin, yang and wang, ying and weng, ong and on, ya and wa, yo And wo, ye, yao, you, wai, we and yue, wan and yuan, and wen and yun.
For example, when the Chinese People's Republic Constitution is input in Chinese by this method, the vocal keyboard of the present invention is a, the final keyboard that is called immediately after inputting the initial on the initial keyboard is b1, and the initial key is once on the initial keyboard. When the keystroke of the present invention is represented by ab1, ab1, ab1, a key keyboard of the present invention is expressed as b2, a final key keyboard called after keystroke is b2, and a final key keyboard called immediately after the voice key is pressed twice on the voice key keyboard. ab1, ab1, ab1, ab1, ab1, ab1, and the total number of keystrokes is 18.
On the other hand, in the case of the all-pin method, zhonghua rengin gonheguo xianfa is obtained, and the total number of keystrokes is 29. In the present invention, 18 ÷ 29≈0.6206 over By that, it becomes a little over 62%.
Similarly, in the case of inputting the notification of the first examination opinion of the National Intellectual Property Office of the People's Republic of China, the present invention is ab1, ab1, ab1, ab1, ab1, ab1, ab1, ab1, ab1, ab1, ab1 , Ab1, ab1, ab1, ab1, ab2, ab1, ab1, ab1, ab2, ab1, ab1, ab1, ab1, a total of 48 times, in the case of the all-pin method, zhonghua rengin ongheguo gujojia zhishi In the case of the present invention, 48 ÷ 74≈0.6486, that is, a little less than about 65%, which is chanquan diyici schencha yijian tongshishu.
Thus, the present invention has a great advantage over the conventional all-pin method in the number of keystrokes. However, the present invention basically reflects the structure of the Chinese phoneme. Since one kanji is input by keystroke, it is suitable for the phonological sense of the input person, is psychologically safe, and also has a large rhythm compared to the conventional all-pin method in that a constant rhythm is maintained in the input. Take advantage.
This rhythm breaks down only 8 times during the total 421 syllables, wang, weng, ong, wa, woo, yue, yuan, yun, which are called by continuously striking the vocal key twice. The ratio of all syllables is less than about 2% given by the equation 8 ÷ 421≈0.019, which is about once every 50 times.
Also, this rhythm disruption is not a heavy burden on the input person because it is the difference between hitting the vocal key one time or hitting it twice in succession.
Of course, there is a slight discrepancy between the reasoning based on the specific gravity in the syllable and the reality of Chinese input, but it does not affect many people.
Another feature of the present invention is that the arrangement of the alphabet basically follows the order of the arrangement of the Chinese syllable table.
The meaning of this can be easily understood by referring to the ease of use of mail on Japanese mobile phones.
As is well known, the use of e-mail on mobile phones in Western countries is extremely low, but it can be inferred that the reason is that the input method does not reflect the phonological structure of the language.
If only keystrokes are considered as a problem, in Europe and the United States, there are 26 types corresponding to 26 letters of the alphabet. In the case of Japanese mobile phones, it is possible to deal with stuttering and prompting sounds based on the Japanese syllabary. Including the case of small character input, there are 80 types.
Therefore, the reason why Japanese input with such a handicap is actually easier is that it corresponds to the Japanese phonological structure, which improves the human interface. .
In this case, the correspondence to the Japanese phonological structure is that the syllable unit is composed of 1 consonant + 1 vowel, and secondly, the letters to be input are arranged in the order of the Japanese syllabary. The two points are asked.
Similarly, the input method of the present invention that basically inputs a kanji sound as a combination of one initial and one final, and the input method according to the present invention in which the arrangement of the initial and the final corresponds to a Chinese syllable table include a human interface. Is greatly improved.
Next, a 3-row, 5-column keyboard with the right half of the above keyboard of the personal computer as the basic keyboard, the left half as the vowel continuation keyboard, the right half of the final keyboard as the vowel basic keyboard, and the left half as the vowel continuation keyboard. About the specific input of the portable input electronic device you have.
That is, in this method, for example, when inputting a kanji character by a combination of initials and finals, the initial basic keyboard of the 3 × 5 keyboard is b, p, m, f, d, t, n, l, g , K, h, er, and the initial note keyboard, the initial continuation keyboard is applied to the input j, q, x, zh, ch, sh, r, z, c, s, Are applied to the inputs of ai, ei, ao, ou, a, o, e, i, u, an, en, ang, eng, u, and the final continuation keyboard is represented by yan, yin, yang and wang, ying And weng, yong and on, ya and wa, yo and wo, ye, yao, you, wai, wei and yue, wan and yuan, and wen and yun.
Now, the basic keyboard key of the 3 rows and 5 columns is a1, the initial keyboard key is sj, the continuous voice key is a2, the initial basic keyboard key is b1, the final keyboard key is yj, and the final keyboard key is b2. Suppose that the basic key keyboard corresponding to the vocal note is b3, the continuous key keyboard corresponding to the vocal note is b4, and the final keyboard corresponding to the heavy voice note is b5, and the number of keystrokes when Chinese is input is examined.
In this input method, when the constitution of the People's Republic of China is input, the Chinese (sja2yjb2), the Chinese (a1yjb2), the people (a1yjb2), the people (a1yjb2), the sum (a1b1), the country (a1yjb2), the constitution (sja2yjb2), the law (a1b1) ), And the total number of keystrokes is 27.
This is 29 times in the case of the normal personal computer all-in-one method seen earlier, but it is slightly over 93% according to the formula 27 ÷ 29 ≒ 0.9310. Yes.
Similarly, when it is input as a notice of the first examination opinion of the National Intellectual Property Office of the People's Republic of China, the present invention is based on the (a1yjb2) sum for the Chinese (sja2yjb2), the Chinese (a1yjb2), the (sja2b1) people (a1yjb2). (A1b1) Country (a1yjb2) Country (a1yjb2) Home (sja2yjb2) Knowledge (sja2b1) Knowledge (sja2b1) Product (sja2yjb2) Authority (sja2yjb2) Station (sja2b1) First (a1b3) 1 (b1) ) Review (sja2b1) intention (a1b3) view (sja2yjb2) communication (a1yjb2) knowledge (sja2b1) book (sja2b1) 72 times in total, in the case of the all-pin method, 74 times as already seen In the case of the present invention, it is approximately 97% according to the formula of 72 ÷ 74≈0.9729. To become.
In other words, the 3 × 5 input method of the present invention corresponds to the Chinese phoneme system when compared with the case of the general “pin” method of a normal personal computer. Not only does it improve the interface, it also wins slightly in keystrokes.
Next, in the above-described portable input electronic device of 3 rows and 5 columns, j is simultaneously placed on the key where g is placed on the third row of the basic key keyboard, q is simultaneously placed on the key where k is placed, and h is placed. The effect of the input method in which x is simultaneously placed on the key will be specifically examined.
Therefore, with this input method, the number of keystrokes when the Constitution of the People's Republic of China is entered is x as the initial of the constitution's constitution, and when inputting this sound, the keystroke of the keyboard continuation key is As a result, one key can be omitted from the number of keystrokes that was 27 keystrokes, resulting in 26 keystrokes, which was 29 times in the case of the all-in-one method of a normal personal computer seen earlier. On the other hand, it is just over 0.8965, that is, less than 90%.
In addition, when this form is used to input the notification of the first examination opinion of the National Intellectual Property Office of the People's Republic of China, the present invention is a three-letter sound of a house (jia), a right (quan), and a look (jian). In addition, it is not necessary to input the keyboard continuation key for 3 times to input the letters including the initials j and q, and the number of keystrokes is 69 times less than 72 times in the case of the above input method. In the case of the pin method, the total is 74 times, which is slightly higher than 0.9324, that is, slightly higher than 93%.
Next, from the left half of the personal computer, the arrangement of the letters to be input basically starts according to a general syllable table, and g and j, k and q, h and x, zh, In the case of a personal computer in which the input of ch, sh, r, er, z, c, s, and a vocal note is set, this keyboard is an input that starts syllable arrangement from the right half of the keyboard of the personal computer already described. Since the arrangement of the right and left halves of the method keyboard is simply changed, there is no change in the number of keystrokes when inputting Chinese.
More precisely, this keyboard is set to input two letters simultaneously to one key for three sets of g and j, k and q, and h and x. There is a slight difference from the personal computer described above, but there is no change in the number of keystrokes specified in the relationship between the voice keyboard and the final keyboard.
The above is the effect of the present invention in a personal computer. In the following, for example, when inputting a kanji character by a combination of a initial and a final, a three-row and five-column basic keyboard is g and j, k and q, h and x, zh, ch, sh, r, z, c, s, er, phonetic note input, and the initial continuation keyboard inputs b, p, m, f, d, t, n, l And the final key keyboard is yan, yin, yang and wang, ying and weng, yang and on, ya and wa, yo and wo, ye, yao, you, wai, wei and yue, wan and yuan, wen Mobile input electronic that is applied to the input of ai, ei, ao, ou, a, o, e, i, u, an, en, ang, eng, u About the effects of equipment Described.
Since the input method using these keys is the same as that of the 3 rows and 5 columns keyboard already described, the number of keystrokes when inputting the Chinese Constitution in Chinese has been described so far. In the same format, the initial key keyboard is a1, the initial key keyboard continuation key sj, the initial key continuation key a2, the final key keyboard basic key b1, the initial key keyboard continuation key yj, and the initial continuation key b2. To do.
When entering the Constitution of the People's Republic of China, the Chinese (a1b1) Chinese (a1b1) People (a1yjb2) People (sja2b1) Common (a1b1) Sum (a1yjb2) Country (a1b1) Constitution (a1b1) Law (sja2yjb2) The total number of keys is 23, which is slightly higher than 0.7931 of 29 keys of the personal computer already described, and more than 79%.
Similarly, if you enter the notification of the first examination opinion of the National Bureau of Intellectual Property of the People's Republic of China, the (a1b1) Chinese (a1b1) People (a1yjb2) People (sja2b1) (a1b1) Sum (a1yjb2) countries (A1b1) Country (a1b1) House (a1b1) Knowledge (a1yjb2) Knowledge (a1yjb2) Product (a1yjb2) Authority (a1b1) Office (a1yjb2) First (sja2yjb2) Next (a1yjb2) Next (a1yjb2) Next (a1yjb2) ) Intention (a1yjb2) Look (a1b1) Communication (sja2b1) Knowledge (a1yjb2) Writing (a1yjb2), 65 keys, 0 keys of 74 keys of the all-pin method in the case of the 3 rows and 5 columns keyboard already described. It becomes a little over 8783, that is, a little less than 88%.
In other words, the 3 × 5 input method of the present invention described here is considerably superior in the number of keystrokes as compared with the case of the all-pin method of a normal personal computer. At the same time, it supports the Chinese phoneme system and improves the human interface for input.
More specifically, in the case of input using a 3 × 5 keyboard according to the present invention, the arrangement of letters on each keyboard is almost the same as that of a 3 × 10 keyboard. Therefore, the input person can easily grasp the position of the key, and if it is limited to the input of each keyboard, the input is basically a total of two strokes of one vocal key and one final key. Input is possible.
This rhythm breaks down only when the keyboard key continuation key and the vowel key continuation key are selected for selection of the basic key keyboard and the vowel continuation keyboard, the final key keyboard and the vowel continuation key. Is a choice between the first half and the second half of the syllable table, so it has a certain significance and is relatively easy for the input person to accept.
As described above, the number of keystrokes in the case of the present invention is greatly superior in the case of a personal computer with 3 rows and 10 columns, and slightly superior in the case of 3 rows and 5 columns, compared with a general all-pin method. I understand that.
In the case of 3 rows and 10 columns, the present invention completely corresponds to the Chinese phoneme system, and in the case of 3 rows and 5 columns, basically, the corresponding alphabet arrangement is used. Learning is easy, and even after learning, there is little resistance to input actions.
This is an input method that does not have an explicit phonological system, and therefore corresponds to the characteristics of Asian languages different from the Indo-European system that does not reflect any phonological system in the alphabetical arrangement.
The present invention is superior to conventional all-pin personal computers and portable input terminals in terms of the number of keystrokes, but the most important advantage is that it has 3 rows and 10 columns and 3 rows and 5 columns. Within the frame of the double-pin method, the simplest input method that has a one-to-one correspondence between the keystroke sequence and the sound is established.
In this respect, the present invention greatly improves the human interface of Chinese input electronic devices.

Patent Documents

1, 2, etc. have already established techniques for automatic replacement of a vocal keyboard and a final keyboard, and the simultaneous assignment of two letters to the same key. In the shift method, since a technique for manually switching keys is established, a new input method can be realized by combining the present invention with these techniques.

FIG. 1 shows the intention of a keyboard in which the letters are arranged in the order of the Chinese syllable table from the upper left to the lower right of the keyboard in the 3 rows and 10 columns keyboard, both in the vocal keyboard and in the final keyboard. .
Fig. 2 shows the basic Chinese syllable from the upper left to the lower right of the keyboard, starting with the continuation keyboard and ending with the basic keyboard, in the 3 rows and 5 columns keyboard. This is the intention of the keyboard with the letters arranged in the order of the table.

Chinese input personal computers and mobile input terminals such as mobile phones.

The implementation of the present invention greatly improves the number of keystrokes and the human interface in the input operation of a Chinese input personal computer. In this case, it is established by the all-pin method that was dominant in the conventional input method. The technology and dictionaries in the machine language and programming language can be used, so there is no major obstacle to migration.
In addition, the Chinese input performance of the portable input terminal according to the present invention has reached a level equivalent to or higher than that of a conventional all-pin personal computer, which opens the way for the widespread use of portable input terminals.
