Description

一种双面键盘组件 技术领域
本发明涉及一种键盘， 尤其是涉及一种可广泛应用于计算机、 掌上电脑、 电子词典、移动电话、多媒体电视、遥控器等所有需要使用键盘的电子设备的 双面键盘组件。 背景技术
目前， 公知传统计算机键盘必须平放， 有支撑（桌面等） ， 因此体积过大 不利于携带， 操作方式受限。
而对于移动电话键盘来说， 由于受到移动电话自身体积限制，导致移动电 话键盘上可设置的键位数有限，且每个键位必须设置多种功能，使得重码率高， 录入速度无法提高到传统键盘的录入速度。
为了提高移动电话键盘的输入速度， 如中国专利 ZL200420049780.0所揭 露的一种具有双面输入键盘的移动电话，如图 1所示，其移动电话键盘 6为双 面键盘， 正面为数字通信键盘， 背面为用于输入汉字、编辑各种信息、 多媒体 操作的普通计算机键盘，且所述键盘 6可绕上翻转轴 7和自旋转轴 8转动和自 旋， 当人们通过移动电话进行通信时， 键盘 6翻转至正面， 通过数字通信键盘 输入电话号码通话， 当人们需要输入汉字、 编辑各种信息、 上网或玩游戏时， 可将键盘 6翻转至背面， 通过普通计算机键盘输入。
但是，这种具有双面输入键盘的移动电话在使用时，需要反复旋转转换至 不同使用状态，操作繁琐，而且由于移动电话自身体积的限制，使得背面键盘 按键太小， 不便于输入。 发明公开
本发明所要解决的技术问题在于提出一种输入方便且速度快的双面键盘 组件， 无需转换即可实现如普通计算机键盘一样的功能。
为了实现上述目的， 本发明提供了一种双面键盘组件， 包括： 正面键盘， 其上设置有第一键区， 用于与双手的拇指配合输入； 背面键盘，其上设置有第 二键区， 该第二键区分成左手键区和右手键区两部分，其中， 该左手键区从所 述背面键盘一侧由外向内依次排列成多列键列，用于与左手除拇指外的其他四 指配合输入； 该右手键区从所述背面键盘另一侧由外向内依次排列成多列键 列， 用于与右手除拇指外的其他四指配合输入。
上述的双面键盘组件，所述左手键区的多列键列分别与普通计算机键盘上 由左手除拇指外的其他四指负责的键区按列对应排列，并错开布置；所述右手 键区的多列键列分别与普通计算机键盘上由右手除拇指外的其他四指负责的 键区按列对应排列， 并错开布置。
上述的双面键盘组件，其中，所述左手键区从所述背面键盘一侧由外向内 依次设置有第一左键列， 自上而下依次排列有 、 "V"、 "C"、 "X"、 "Z"键； 第二左键列， 自上而下依次排列有 "G"、 "F" 、 "D" 、 "S" 、
"A"键； 第三左键列， 自上而下依次排列有 "T"、 "R"、 "E"、 "W"、
"Q"键； 所述右手键区从所述背面键盘另一侧由外向内依次设置有第一右键 列， 自上而下依次排列有 "N"、 "M"、 "< ,"、 "> ."、 "？ /"键； 第二右键列， 自上而下依次排列有 "H"、 "J"、 "K"、 "L"、 "： ； "键； 第三右键列， 自上而下依次排列有 "Y" 、 "U" 、 "Γ 、 "O" 、 "P"键。
优选的， 上述的双面键盘组件的所述左手键区还包括： 第四左键列， 自上 而下依次排列有 "％ 5"、 "$ 4"、 "# 3 " 、 "@ 2" 、 "！ 1 "键； 所述右手键区还包括：第四右键列， 自上而下依次排列有" Λ 6"、 "& 7"、
"* 8" 、 "（ 9" 、 "） 0"键。 并且， 所述左手键区的第一至第四左键列 的最下端还依次排列有 "shift"、 "Caps lock"、 " { ["、 "〜 、"键； 所 述右手键区的第一至第四右键列的最下端还依次排列有 " shift" 、 "，， 、 ") ]，， 、 "―一，，键。
根据本发明的双面键盘组件，所述背面键盘可分解成左键盘和右键盘，所 述左键盘上设置有所述左手键区，所述右键盘上设置有所述右手键区，并且所 述左键盘和右键盘可分别展开至位于所述正面键盘的左右两侧，与所述正面键 盘共同组成传统模式的普通计算机键盘。并且，所述左键盘与右键盘通过连接 线或接口与所述正面键盘连接成兼容传统模式的普通计算机键盘。
根据本发明的双面键盘组件，所述第一键区可设置有数字键。或者， 还可 设置有上、 下、左、右方向键和其它功能键。 并且， 本发明的双面键盘组件可 广泛应用于计算机、 掌上电脑、 电子词典、移动电话、遥控器或多媒体电视等 需要使用键盘的电子设备 附图简要说明

本发明的键盘组件分为正、 反两面， 将传统键盘中双手由食指、 中指、无 名指和小指负责的按键放置在键盘背面，而将数字键及其他一些功能键放置在 键盘正面，与双手的拇指配合输入。如此，使用时可双手呈自然握姿握住键盘， 采用正面和背面输入相结合的方式进行输入。
下面结合图 2〜5， 以应用于计算机的键盘 100为例， 说明本发明的键盘组 件的结构。
本发明的计算机键盘 100为双面键盘，其键盘组件可包括正面键盘 10 (如 图 2所示） 和背面键盘 20 (如图 3所示） ， 并且， 与普通计算机键盘一样， 本发明的计算机键盘 100可通过 USB接口、 连接线、 红外接口、 无线网口等 方式与计算机连接输入。 如图 2所示， 正面键盘 10上设置有第一键区 101， 其中的按键可包括有数字键、 方向键和其他一些功能键， 如设置在正面键盘 10上部的 "Fl " ~ "F12"功能键， 设置在下部的数字键 "0~9"键和 " esc " 等功能键， 以及设置在中部的方向键、 鼠标、和其它功能键等， 这些按键可通 过双手的拇指配合输入。 如图 3所示， 背面键盘 20上设置有第二键区 201， 其中的按键可包括普通计算机键盘中由双手除拇指外的其他四指负责的键区 内的按键， 这些按键呈多列分别由背面键盘 20的两侧由外向内错开排列， 并 由上到下布置， 以供双手四指呈自然握姿配合输入。
较佳的，如图 3所示，该第二键区从背面键盘 20中心线 I-I分成左手键区 21和右手键区 22两部分。 所述左手键区 21从所述背面键盘一侧由外向内依 次设置有：第一左键列 211， 自上而下依次排列有 "B"、 "V"、 "C"、 "X"、 "Z"、 "shift"键； 第二左键列 212， 自上而下依次排列有 "G" 、 "F" 、 "D" 、 "S" 、 "A" 、 "Caps lock"键； 第三左键列 213， 自上而下依次 排列有 "T"、 "R"、 "E"、 "W"、 "Q"、 " { ["键； 第四左键列 214， 自上而下依次排列有"％ 5"、 "$ 4"、 "# 3"、 "@ 2"、 "！ 1 "、 "〜 、"键。所述右手键区 22从所述背面键盘 20另一侧由外向内依次设置有： 第一右键列 221， 自上而下依次排列有 "N" 、 "M" 、 "< ," 、 "> ." 、 "？ /"、 "shift "键； 第二右键列 222， 自上而下依次排列有 "H" 、 "J"、 "K" 、 "L"、 "： ；"、 "，， ，"键； 第三右键列 223， 自上而下依次排列 有 " Y"、 "U"、 "1" 、 "0"、 "P"、 " } Γ，键； 第四右键列 224， 自 上而下依次排列有" Λ 6"、 "& 7"、 "* 8"、 "（ 9"、 "） 0"、 "― -"键。 由于左手键区 21和右手键区 22采用传统键盘键位的排列方式， 因此， 不需改变双手手指原来的按键习惯，会使用传统键盘的使用者无须学习即可通 过左右手 31、 32配合使用本发明的键盘组件实现快速输入， 如图 4所示。 并 且， 左手键区 21和右手键区 22中的各键列， 由外向内依次降低错开排列， 以 更符合人体工学设计， 使按键动作更顺畅。
如图 5所示， 较佳的， 所述背面键盘 20可分解成左键盘 25和右键盘 26， 所述左键盘 25上设置有所述左手键区，所述右键盘 26上设置有所述右手键区， 并且所述左键盘 25和右键盘 26可分别展开至位于所述正面键盘的左右两侧， 通过连接线或接口，如通过设置在正面键盘左右两侧的 USB接口 15、 16分别 与设置在左键盘 25上的 USB接口 251、 右键盘 26上的 USB接口 261连接， 从而与所述正面键盘 10连接成传统模式的普通计算机键盘， 以满足使用者使 用传统方式输入的需求。另外，还可在左键盘 25与正面键盘 10左侧之间、右 键盘 26与正面键盘 10右侧之间设置固定装置（图中未示）， 以进一步加强左 键盘 25和右键盘 26与正面键盘 10之间的连接。
并且，可以理解的是，正面键盘和背面键盘上的按键可根据实际需要对其 位置、大小以及功能进行不同设计， 这些并不作为对本发明的限制。例如， 可 以将正面键盘中的鼠标放在背面键盘上。
由于本发明的键盘组件的键位分布于键盘的正反两面，从而实现键盘的小 型化，所以本发明的键盘组件不仅可以应用于掌上电脑，也同样可应用于移动 电话、 电子词典、遥控器等需要使用到键盘的电子设备。 并且， 本发明的键盘 组件的外观形状和体积可根据需要制作成相应形状和大小，如制作成只有游戏 手柄大小或传统直板移动电话大小。 也可以设计成分体嵌入式键盘（如图 5 所示） ， 平放于桌面， 从而可采用与传统键盘相同的输入姿势进行输入。
下面结合图 6〜8， 以本发明的键盘组件应用于移动电话 300上为例， 进一 步说明本发明的键盘组件的结构。
如图 6所示， 在移动电话 300的正面外壳 31上， 设置有移动电话显示屏 301和正面键盘 302，正面键盘 302包括有设置在显示屏 301下方的方向键 304、 空格键 305、以及数字键 0~9及其它一些常用的功能键，如、 "esc"键、 "tab" 键、 "Ctrl"键等； "F1 F12"键设置在显示屏 301上方； 这些按键可根据正 面外壳的空间和人们的使用习惯进行合理布置。并且， 为了便于操作， 正面外 壳 31上靠近中部位置的两侧还设置有用于供双手拇指握持的区域 308， 区域 308上方设置有与鼠标左右键功能一样的按键 309, 用于与鼠标 307 (如图 7 所示）配合操作。
如图 7所示， 移动电话 300的背面外壳 32由左键盘 321和右键盘 322组 成， 左键盘 321上设置有传统计算机键盘中由左手四指负责的键区， 如包括： 第一左键列 3211， 自上而下依次排列有 "B"、 "V"、 "C"、 "X"、 "Z"、 "shift"键； 第二左键列 3212， 自上而下依次排列有 "G" 、 "F"、 "D" 、 "S"、 "A"、 "Caps lock "键；第三左键列 3213， 自上而下依次排列有 "T"、 "R"、 "Ε"、 "W" 、 "Q"、 " { ["键。 而右键盘 322上设置有传统计 算机键盘中由右手四指负责的键区， 如包括： 第一右键列 3221， 自上而下依 次排列有 "Ν"、 "Μ"、 "< ," 、 "> ." 、 "？ I" 、 "shift"键； 第二 右键列 3222， 自上而下依次排列有 "H"、 "J"、 、 "L" 、 "： ；" 、
"，，， "键；第三右键列 3223， 自上而下依次排列有 "Y"、 "U"、 T、 "0"、 "Ρ"、 "} ]"键。 移动电话背面还设置有摄像头 303和鼠标 307。
如图 8所示， 移动电话 300的背面外壳 32的左键盘 321和右键盘 322同 样也可拆卸组装在正面外壳 31左右两侧， 通过连接线或接口， 如通过设置在 正面外壳 31左右两侧的 USB接口 313、314分别与设置在左键盘 321上的 USB 接口 323、 右键盘 322上的 USB接口 324连接， 从而与所述正面外壳 31构成 传统模式的计算机键盘， 采用传统输入方式输入。
当然，本发明还可有其他多种实施例，在不背离本发明精神及其实质的情 况下，熟悉本领域的技术人员当可根据本发明作出各种相应的改变和变形，但 这些相应的改变和变形都应属于本发明所附的权利要求的保护范围。 工业应用性
本发明的双面键盘组件通过将传统计算机键盘中由双手食指、中指、无名 指、小指负责的按键设置在背面， 与正面键盘一起，采用正面和背面相结合的 输入方式，不需频繁进行正反面转换和放置于桌面等支撑物上即可实现与传统 计算机键盘相同的输入功能， 不仅使用方便， 输入速度快， 而且可减小键盘的 体积， 便于携带。
另外，本发明的双面键盘组件也可展开组成传统计算机键盘， 以采用传统 输入姿势输入， 具有多种输入模式， 满足不同习惯的人群需求。
