Embodiment
Embodiment to the input media of portable terminal of the present invention describes in detail further below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.At this,, the detailed description that it is carried out will be omitted to relevant well-known parts and function.
Fig. 2 is to use portable terminal 20 synoptic diagram of input media of the present invention, as shown in the figure, being provided with renovating of display screen 26 and loudspeaker 27 22 combines with terminal fuselage 21 by hinge portion 28, and in the front of above-mentioned terminal fuselage 21, the keypad combination 30 that is provided with function key 34 and constitutes by a plurality of numerical keys 32 and voice sending part 33, and the hinge portion 38 of above-mentioned keypad combination by terminal fuselage 21 belows links together with fuselage and can free folding, in addition, and below above-mentioned keypad combination 30, touch-screen 31 is set on the terminal fuselage 21.
Above-mentioned keypad combination 30, when above-mentioned keypad combination 30 closed to attachment surface 37 1 sides, the height on above-mentioned keypad combination 30 upsides and plane, above-mentioned functions key 34 place should be identical substantially, makes above-mentionedly to renovate 22 when closing, and any slit can not occur.
Simultaneously, the certain position of above-mentioned keypad combination 30 both sides also is provided with and holds groove 35, also opens backward so that hold above-mentioned keypad combination 30.
Above-mentioned keypad combination 30 should free folding, and when closing, should play the effect that to use above-mentioned touch-screen 31, so its folding mode both can adopt the mode of the hinge portion 38 that is provided with as shown in this figure below terminal fuselage 21, also can hinge portion (not shown) be set, thereby realize above function in any side of terminal fuselage 21 both sides.
Above-mentioned keypad combination 30 can also be made the form that slides up and down with respect to above-mentioned terminal fuselage 21.At this moment, also should possess and to make the guide rail that the keypad combination slides with respect to the terminal fuselage and be limited to the draw runner parts such as (not shown) that move guide rail inside.
Be elaborated below in conjunction with 3 pairs of above-mentioned keypad combinations 30 of accompanying drawing.
Fig. 3 is the A-A line sectional view according to Fig. 2.
What perforation formed on the keypad framework 41,42 about numerical key 32 was arranged at is provided with between the hole 46,45, and above-mentioned numerical key 32 and key main body 50 move up and down along leading wall 48, and possess can with the raised brim 52 that is arranged on anti-drop device 44 collocation in the above-mentioned keypad framework.In addition, also possess and to carry out the touch projection 51 that physics contacts with following touch-screen 31 to lower convexity.
In addition, above-mentioned touch projection 51 by its two ends by the bottom surface of above-mentioned raised brim 52 with when being formed at the spring 53 that the holding tank 47 on the bottom keypad framework 42 supports, can be arranged on hole 45 guidings being set and moving up and down in the above-mentioned bottom keypad framework 42.
In addition, between keypad combination 30 and touch-screen 31, keep certain distance, on combination 30 or terminal fuselage 21, form spacer 43 in order to make between above-mentioned keypad combination 30 and the touch-screen 31.
Therefore, when pressing numerical key 32 when press...withing one's finger, above-mentioned touch projection 51 will descend and contact with touch-screen 31, thereby then can be input in the control part (not shown) with above-mentioned touch point information corresponding.
And when finger left, by means of the elastic force of spring 53, above-mentioned numerical key 32 just returned to original position.
Below, with in conjunction with the accompanying drawings 4 and the effect of 5 pairs of present embodiments of accompanying drawing be described in detail.
Fig. 4 is the keypad closing state that shows the portable terminal that uses input media of the present invention, synoptic diagram when using the keypad input, and Fig. 5 is the state that demonstration uses the keypad of the portable terminal of input media of the present invention to open, the synoptic diagram when using the felt pen input.
As shown in Figure 4, if keypad combination 30 is in closed condition, for input characters or the numeral use the mode of numerical key 32 identical with existing flip-type portable terminal.Just, it is not directly to control in numerical key 32 inside, and passes through the contact input corresponding digital information of the touch-screen 31 of below.
For example, when the user presses numerical key " 1 ", the touch projection in the above-mentioned numerical key will with the below touch-screen in accurately contact with the corresponding position of button " 1 ", thereby to the information of control part input " 1 ".
That is, under keypad combination 30 closing state, touch-screen 31 can receive and the corresponding literal in numerical key 32 positions or the numerical information that are arranged in the keypad combination 30, thus the button input mode identical functions of realization and existing flip-type portable terminal.
As shown in Figure 5, if keypad combination 30 is in the state of opening, then becomes the state that directly to import, thereby use felt pen 60 or point input digit/literal or internet usage function easily to touch-screen 31.
At this moment, the state the when state of touch-screen 31 is closed with above-mentioned keypad combination 30 is different, is in the state that can import various literal, numeral and figure.
As mentioned above, portable terminal of the present invention gets input media, when realizing key-area inputting ways, can also use touch-screen, therefore can utilize the button input mode simply to import, can also when the needs input is served than long text or applying Internet etc., use the touch-screen input mode, thereby realize the improvement of input mode.
In addition, because touch-screen of the present invention is arranged on the below of keypad combination, so the problem of the mistake input that takes place because of face's contact can also effectively avoid utilizing the flip-type portable terminal to converse the time.
Certainly; the present invention also can have other various embodiments; under the situation that does not deviate from spirit of the present invention and essence thereof; those of ordinary skill in the art work as can make various corresponding changes and distortion according to the present invention, but these corresponding changes and distortion all should belong to the protection domain of the appended claim of the present invention.
