Key layout suitable for pinyin input and keyboard

Abstract

The invention discloses a key layout suitable for pinyin input and a keyboard. The keyboard comprises a first row of letter key positions, a second row of letter key positions and a third row of letter key positions, wherein the first row of letter key positions comprise an I key position and an O key position which are adjacent to each other left and right, the second row of letter key positionscomprise a U key position and an A key position which are adjacent to each other left and right, and the third row of letter key positions comprise a V key position and an E key position which are adjacent to each other left and right. In this way, the structure is simple, the invention discloses a key layout suitable for pinyin input and a keyboard. Concentrated key position limitation of singlefinals in pinyin is carried out, common final N key positions and G key positions are distributed close to single finals key positions, Z key positions, S key positions and C key positions are arranged close to H key positions, the key positions serve as common combinations of initial consonants in the pinyin input method, and the Chinese character input speed can be increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of keyboards and key layouts thereof, in particular to a key layout and keyboard suitable for pinyin input. Background technique [0002] The key position distribution on the existing computer keyboard hardly has any change since adopting the mode of QWERTY English alphabet keyboard arrangement, but QWERTY keyboard exists many unscientific places owing to directly continuing to use the key position arrangement of typewriter. [0003] In fact, when Larson Shoals originally designed the keyboard layout of the printer, he arranged the 26 English letters in a standard order. After the typist became familiar with the keyboard layout, as the typing speed increased, the internal rotating rods of the printer often stuck together. Due to the limitations of the times and technology, Sholes re-adjusted the alphabetical order of the keys and designed the QWERTY keyboard layout to limit the keystroke speed. [0004] With the adva...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0002] The distribution of keys on the existing computer keyboard has hardly changed since the arrangement of the QWERTY English alphabet keyboard was adopted, but the QWERTY keyboard has many unscientific places because it directly follows the arrangement of the keys of the typewriter.

[0003] In fact, when Larson Shoals originally designed the keyboard layout of the printer, he arranged the 26 English letters in a standard order. After the typist became familiar with the keyboard layout, as the typing speed increased, the internal rotating rods of the printer often stuck together. Due to the limitations of the times and technology, Shoals re-adjusted the alphabetical order of the keys, designed the QWERTY keyboard layout, and limited the keystroke speed.

[0004] With the advancement of science and technology, the above-mentioned technical barriers no longer exist, but most of the physical keyboards and virtual keyboards still use the QWERTY keyboard that restricts typing speed, and the letter layout of the QWERTY keyboard is designed with English input as the background. Chinese input, especially Chinese Quanpin input, has the problem of inconsistency with the word frequency of Chinese pinyin letters, which is not conducive to the rapid input of pinyin and needs to be improved
