A novel keyboard

Abstract

The invention provides a novel keyboard comprising a first input area, a second input area, a third input area, a fourth input area and a functional area. The first input area includes the keys of S, D, A, G, H, I, N and J. The second input area includes the keys of <, >, L, Y, E, U, O, T, P, Q and B. The third input area includes the keys of M, F, K, R, :, and W. The keyboard key positions are reasonably optimized to make the load of the left hand and the load of the right hand basically the same; the load of the right hand is slightly heavier than the load of the left hand; the average moving distance of the fingers is reduced, so that the keyboard is more suitable for Chinese pinyin spelling input; the keys of the most frequently-used letters are moved to the positions where the most flexible fingers can touch most easily; the positions of the punctuation marks are optimized; the load of the left hand is reduced ; the letters forming the common pinyin combinations of Chinese are clicked by the left hand and the right hand in turns, so that single-hand clicking is prevented and the fatigue of the fingers is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of input devices, in particular to a novel keyboard. Background technique [0002] For a computer office worker, the keyboard is still the fastest feasible input method for a computer or other data processing equipment. The origins of the modern keyboard as the primary method of entering text from man to machine can be traced back to typewriters in the early 1800s, and the QWERTY keyboard was designed in this unerrought layout because older typewriters would break out if typed too quickly. The phenomenon of stuck keys, so maximizing typing speed is not its explicit purpose. Using the QWERTY layout of typewriter keyboards as the layout of computer keyboards was adapted to the society at that time. With the advent of computers, this layout was naturally used on computer keyboards. The problem of low input efficiency has always been throughout the entire history of computer keyboards. [0003] However, in the developme...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The design of the keyboard is still in accordance with the most original design scheme, which greatly slows down the work efficiency of the computer.

[0004] During the development of the keyboard, a k-type keyboard (mainly referring to splitting the keyboard into two halves) appeared, which increased the movable distance of the hands and ensured the arms were opened naturally, but did not make any adjustments to the original keyboard key layout, and not easy to carry

Later, the Frenchman Dvorak made an adjustment to the keyboard, experimented with more than 250 keyboard layouts, and confirmed that the DVORAK keyboard has a certain improvement in the efficiency of English input, but because its starting point is to seek to improve English input, English input and Chinese input there is an essential difference

[0005] Therefore, there is currently no keyboard suitable for Chinese pinyin input that is suitable for the public and considers improving the balance rate of both hands and the alternation rate of both hands, thereby improving typing speed and typing accuracy.
