Problems solved by technology

It is precisely because this design can reduce people's typing speed, because the typewriter technology at that time was not very good, if the typing speed is too fast, the mechanical arm will jam
And later, because people got used to using this kind of keyboard from the beginning, the keyboard production had to adopt the QWERTY style all the time.
[0004] Some shortcomings of the current QWERTY keyboard and mouse: two-handed operation, separation of the keyboard and mouse, one hand must frequently switch between the keyboard and the mouse when operating the mouse, and when one hand stops, the other hand can only be in position In the standby state, it is impossible to complete the input work alone, the number of keys is large, and the positioning is difficult. These factors lead to the low efficiency of the traditional keyboard
Moreover, after operating the keyboard with both hands, you cannot use your hands to do other things while typing the keyboard, such as turning pages, drinking water, answering the phone, writing with a pen, gesturing, etc.
[0005] At present, the notebook products of IBM and other companies have the mouse nested in the keyboard, but it is still not very convenient, mainly because it cannot be input when positioning, and cannot be positioned when inputting
And when positioning, the other hand must stop working and wait for the positioning to end, and likewise, there is no way to complete positioning and input with one hand
[0006] The current mobile phone keyboard is affected by the size of the mobile phone. The number of keys on the mobile phone is small, and one key has multiple functions. There are many ways to press a key, such as short press, long press, and quick double-click. They all have different functions and can be operated with one hand. , you can also input a variety of texts in various ways, but there are many repeated keys, and it is difficult to locate. When entering a short message, it is difficult to select due to repeated codes in the input text. You can only use the direction keys to move up, down, left, and right. The positioning operation can only be moved in one step in four directions, up, down, left, and right, and the mobile phone is a handheld device, which is affected by the need for other fingers to hold the mobile phone. Therefore, only one or two fingers can be used for general operations, which also affects the slowness of text input on the mobile phone. A factor of , this factor causes a considerable number of people not to use mobile phone text messages
Although some smartphones use a stylus to solve this problem, it is necessary to use both hands to operate the stylus, which is very inconvenient for people who go out. They think that people who go out usually carry bags, so it is very inconvenient to operate with both hands.
[0007] In addition, the keyboard and mouse that need to be operated by both hands are also very inconvenient for people with one-handed disabilities.

example 1

[0064] Example 1: Personal computer keyboard and mouse, the layout of keyboard keys is as follows: figure 2 As shown (take the right-hand keyboard and mouse as an example, the left-hand keyboard is similar). Table 1 is the frequency table of keyboard letters, Table 2 is the frequency table of the first letter, and Table 3 is the frequency table of the last letter; Table 4 is the most commonly used combination of double-letter English letters; Table 5 is the most common combination of three-letter English letters . At design time, key locations are determined from these tables.

example 2

[0097] Describe example two below: mobile phone keyboard and mouse, image 3 It is a schematic diagram of a mobile phone keyboard and mouse according to an embodiment of the present invention. This is to add a mouse positioning part mechanism on the back of the mobile phone on the ready-made mobile phone keyboard. Wherein, a mouse position recognition device is included, which is used to move the cursor according to the position of the mouse. The processing device is used to determine the operation of the mobile phone according to the movement of the mouse positioning and the input of the key, such as moving the cursor 5 grids to the right according to the movement of the mouse positioning; the judging device is used to determine whether to accept the operation of the mouse or the keyboard. In the embodiment, the mobile operation mouse takes precedence over the keyboard.

[0098] The cursor movement of most of the current mobile phones can only be moved up, down, left, and r...

Abstract

The present invention provides a kind of keyboard-mouse device and its realizing method. The keyboard-mouse device includes keys with at least one function each; mouse locator for determining mouse position change; key and mouse identifier for identifying the location of keys and mouse; key switching unit for determining the function of key operation; and combining unit for combining the mouse position change and key operation to determine the user required operation. The method includes the following steps: reading the parameter of each key click; reading mouse locating parameter; determining the switching between key and mouse; combining the key click parameter and mouse locating parameter; and determining the user required operation. The present invention can realize single hand operation and realize simultaneous input and locating to raise work efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to electronic equipment and a computer device, in particular to a combined keyboard and mouse and a realization method. It specifically relates to a keyboard and mouse operated by one hand, which can be used in PCs, mobile phones, PDAs, intelligent terminals, instruments and meters and other systems that require text input and position positioning. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of computer and electronic technology, the speed, capacity and performance of computers have made breakthroughs by leaps and bounds, but the development of personal computer input devices, keyboards and mice has not changed much. We have been using mice and keyboards for many years. , input methods, and other aspects have not been greatly improved. This is because the current computer QWERTY keyboard is inherited from the English typewriter. Because the typewriter’s consideration of position positioning has led to some positi...
