Problems solved by technology

However, the appearance of this type of equipment tends to be miniaturized and personalized. Due to the restriction of the appearance and structure of the product, too many buttons cannot be configured, which makes it inconvenient for text input; for example, most of the equipment in these product fields When using less than 13 keys to input 26 English letters, no less than 3 key operations are required to input an English letter, which is not only inconvenient for the user to operate, but more importantly, affects the text input speed

Embodiment 1

[0036] Embodiment 1, if the text input is 26 English letters, the text input keys of the text input unit 30 of the electronic device 10 are five, as figure 2 As shown, the text input unit 30 includes five input keys: an upper key 301, a left key 302, a middle key 303, a right key 304, and a lower key 305. In the control unit 40, the parameter values ​​of the above-mentioned input keys Set as KEY1, KEY2, KEY3, KEY4, KEY5 respectively, the specific workflow of this embodiment is as follows Figure 5 shown.

[0037] The twenty-six letters of the input text are divided into five groups consistent with the number of the input keys, such as five groups such as "ABCDE", "FGHIJ", "KLMNO", "PQRST", and "UVWXYZ". Of course, The above-mentioned grouping is only one of the ways, and can be grouped in a variety of permutations and combinations, such as "KMNPQ", "FICDE" and other modes; the text grouping is displayed on the display unit 20 according to a certain orientation or rule, such ...

Embodiment 2

[0048] In the second embodiment, the input text is twenty-six English letters, and the text input unit 30 of the electronic device 10 has six text input keys, and the text input unit 30 includes six input keys: key one, key two, Key 3, key 4, key 5, and key 6. In the control unit 40, the parameter values ​​of the above-mentioned input keys are respectively set as KEY1, KEY2, KEY3, KEY4, KEY5, KEY6.

[0049] The twenty-six letters of the text to be input are divided into six groups consistent with the number of the input keys, such as "a", "e", "bcdfgh", "ijklmn", "opqrst", "uvwxyz" and other six groups. Group (refer to the statistical arrangement of the frequency of occurrence of English letters), such as Figure 6 shown. Likewise, the grouping described above is only one of the methods, which can be grouped in various permutations and combinations, and the grouping of characters is displayed on the display unit 20 according to a certain orientation or rule, which is a first-...

Embodiment 3

[0051] Embodiment three, suppose the text of input is English 26 letters, the text input key of the text input unit 30 of electronic equipment 10 is four, and described text input unit 30 comprises four input keys: upper key 301, left key key 302, right key 303, and down key 304. In the control unit 40, the parameter values ​​of the above-mentioned input keys are respectively set as KEY1, KEY2, KEY3, and KEY4.

[0052] The twenty-six letters and space characters of the text to be input (27 text information in total) are divided into four groups consistent with the number of input keys according to the frequency of use of letters, such as "ace (space character)", "ilno ", "rstu", "bdfghjkmpqvwxyz" and other four groups, such as Figure 7 shown. Likewise, the grouping described above is only one of the methods, which can be grouped in various permutations and combinations, and the grouping of characters is displayed on the display unit 20 according to a certain orientation or r...

Abstract

This invention provides a hierarchical word-input method for portable electronic devices, which divides words to be input into several groups in the same number with the input keys and sets up corresponding relation between the input keys and the word groups then divides the activated groups into the next stage word groups according to the number of the keys till the word of the next stage word group corresponding to an input key can be input by one key, which can input words in less times to reduce the key number.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a character input method, in particular to a method for hierarchically inputting characters in a portable electronic device. technical background [0002] At present, with the continuous development of technologies such as language learning machines, mobile phones, MP3 players, MP4 players, and game consoles, great improvements have been made in text input, such as inputting different text or letters by setting more buttons , or input different text or letters by setting different switching keys. However, the appearance of this type of equipment tends to be miniaturized and personalized. Due to the restriction of the appearance and structure of the product, too many buttons cannot be configured, which makes it inconvenient for text input; for example, most of the equipment in these product fields When using less than 13 keys to input 26 English letters, no less than 3 key operations are required to input an English letter, whi...
