Novel human engineering keyboard layout

Abstract

The invention discloses a novel human engineering keyboard layout. According to the novel human engineering keyboard layout, a keyboard is divided into five functional areas, namely a function key area, a main keyboard area, an editing and control key area, a navigation browsing key area and a function locking key area. The function key area comprises function keys which are divided into a left row and a right row; the main keyboard area comprises figure keys 1 to 0, alphabet keys A to Z and symbol keys according to a 104 key layout standard; the editing and control key area comprises editing keys in a left row and a right row, control keys which are horizontally symmetric in a left group and a right group, and a PrintScreen located in a central axis; the navigation browsing key area comprises direction selection keys, a space key, and page navigation keys. By means of the novel human engineering keyboard layout, the layout structure of the keys on the keyboard is adjusted reasonably so that the balance of operating frequency of the keyboard can be effectively improved; the layout of key positions meets human engineering, so that occupational diseases caused by long-time bad operation gestures are avoided; meanwhile, the keyboard is convenient to store and carry, the text processing efficiency of the keyboard is improved practically, and the multimedia operation experience of a user is enriched.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an ergonomic keyboard layout, in particular to a computer keyboard layout with reasonable division of functional areas, ergonomic key layout, suitable deployment and mobile device platforms, and convenient storage and carrying. Background technique [0002] The traditional 104 keyboard with QWERTY layout as the main layout, except the main key area, the layout structure of the function area, editing area, and number area is relatively far away from the center key position. Low, unable to meet user needs. [0003] At the same time, the touch-typing fingering method inherited from the typewriter is not ergonomic, in which the little finger with weak physiological function is burdened with excessive input pressure, and needs to control the frequently used editing keys, and most of these keys are far away from the little finger Basic keys (Home Keys), the operation span is large, and it takes a long time to reset after t...

Problems solved by technology

[0002] The traditional 104 keyboard with QWERTY layout as the main layout, except the main key area, the layout structure of the function area, editing area, and number area is relatively far away from the center key position. Low, unable to meet user needs

[0003] At the same time, the touch-typing fingering method inherited from the typewriter is not ergonomic, in which the little finger with weak physiological function bears excessive input pressure, and needs to control the frequently used editing keys, and most of these keys are far away from the little finger Basic keys (Home Keys), the operation span is large, and it takes a long time to reset after the operation is completed, which affects the efficiency of input and editing; in contrast, the left and right thumbs are only responsible for the space bar, and are idle most of the time

[0004] The needs of modern computer users for keyboards have become more and more diversified, and the design and layout of traditional desktop computer keyboards are gradually unable to meet the needs of users on laptops, tablets and smartphones.

Especially in the trend of computers gradually becoming integrated, miniaturized and portable, the aspect ratio of the traditional 104 keyboard is close to 4:1, which is difficult to match with the common display screen with a ratio of 16:9, and it is not easy to deploy in various new At the same time, it also causes difficulties in storage and carrying, which has become a bottleneck restricting the development of keyboards.
