Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to the input technology of keyboard, particularly relate to a kind of keyboard and input method and device that Chinese and English mixes input that carry out.
Background technology
SMS (short message service) is very popular as a kind of communication modes of literal easily, but some trouble of the input of the literal on the mobile phone, at present, Chinese character coding input method on the mobile phone reaches thousands of kinds, the mobile phone literal input of the non-American-European family of languages all can run into similar input method problem, wherein the most frequently used have a T9 Chinese and English input method, the Chinese pinyin input method, Chinese stroke input method or the like, wherein the T9 input method can be formed English word or Chinese spelling according to the input of button automatically, highly beneficial to the input English word, the Chinese pinyin input method is very convenient to the relatively more accurate user of pronunciation, but groups of people limit because of cacoepy is subjected to some in the use, stroke input method is imported according to the mode of the order of strokes observed in calligraphy, can import as long as can write, but to the order of strokes observed in calligraphy require higher, these input methods have his own strong points, in order to make full use of the characteristics of these input methods, when mixing input, pinyin stroke just need between these input methods, switch, when running into a word and can not read, just need the stroke input method input, when running into a word and can not read, the mode that can switch to phonetic is imported.In addition, flourishing day by day and externally open day by day along with economy in the life, in line with international standards deepening continuously, foreign word especially English alphabet is also very general in daily life, such as PK, and WTO, IPO, PC, GDP, DVD, VCD, MP3, TV, DC, DV, COOL, PS2, XO, KTV or the like, the occasion that need mix input digit and English on SMS is also more and more, because button is very limited on the mobile phone, also will frequently switch in the input of Chinese and English numeral or punctuation mark again, therefore, the problem that exists is that the switching of various input methods bothers very much in input process now, to switch input method by switch key earlier, just can import normally then, so in Chinese and English numeral or pinyin stroke mixing input, because the frequent trouble of being brought by the input method switch key, therefore a lot of people refuse to use short message, make the widespread use of short message be subjected to some influences.
Adopt the mode of handwriting input can solve many problems, but touch-screen need be set on mobile phone, cost is than higher, need bimanualness in addition, one holds mobile phone, and an other manual manipulation writing pencil is if writing pencil is lost, can serve influence to input tape, so hand-written popularization also is faced with some difficulties.The another one problem of handwriting recognition is to have write whole word could discern in addition, and as long as existing stroke input is input beginning strokes, the word that needs may be just shows in below the menu and can select, especially when word stroke is many, such as " numerous " word, handwriting input just seems that input is slow and loaded down with trivial details by contrast.
Prior art provides the literal on a kind of numeric keypad to import quick handoff technique (China Patent No.: 200410058330.2), be used for realizing the mixing input of Chinese, English, arabic numeral and punctuation mark.Method is: English, numeral and punctuation mark and Chinese character input are combined together, outside under the sign indicating number input state, increase " English upper screen key ", " digital upper screen key " and " punctuation mark key " three switch keys, and it is arranged side by side to switch to the switch key that selects the repeated code state to use when importing with Chinese character, constitutes quick switching system.Before not pressing switch key, a whenever defeated outer sign indicating number is temporary transient earlier to be handled by the outer sign indicating number of Chinese, and up to pressing switch key, the character that just defeated outer sign indicating number is determined according to switch key is handled.Therefore, under the Chinese character state, input is English, can directly import when numeral or punctuation mark, in advance and all need not manually change input mode afterwards.The problem of this scheme is the characteristics when not thinking over these input methods mixing inputs, cause wasting some button resources, the problem that does not have repeated code such as part numeral and punctuation mark, but this scheme special secondary school door knob numeral is handled as a class input mode, a lot of button resources have been wasted, and this scheme is not considered the switching between the Chinese input methods, so phonetic is imported and the stroke input still needs to switch.
In this scheme, " # ", " * ", " upturning key " that are set to switch key all have other purposes in addition, if adopt these keys to be used as switch key, certainly will other function that these keys have be impacted.
