Abstract
Description
Bezeichnung : -(Einhand-Taschengeräte)-Beschreibung Zlektronische Taschengeräte bieten den Vorteil, daß sie-im çegensatz zum Rechenschieber etwa - mit einem Finger bedient werden können und daß die andere Hand frei bleibt, um Ergeonisse zu notieren oder für den jeweiligen Arbeitsgang sonst erforderliches zu tun.Description : - (One-hand pocket devices) -description Zlektronic pocket devices offer the advantage that they can be operated with one finger - in contrast to the slide rule, for example - and that the other hand remains free to write down results or to do anything else required for the respective operation .
Voraussetzung dafür, daß die Hand frei bleibt, ist allerdings das Vorhandensein einer geeigneten Auflage- u. Haltefläche für das Gerät. Alle bisherigen Gerätekonstruktionen gehen m. W.However, this is a prerequisite for keeping the hand free Availability of a suitable support and holding surface for the device. All previous Device constructions go in my opinion
davon aus, daß eine solche Fläche vorhanden ist. Sobald diese Voraussetzung aber fehlt, z. B. an der schrägen Platte einer Zeichenmaschine, unterwegs usw., müssen diese Geräte dann mit der einen Hand gehalten werden, um sie mit der anderen Hand bedienen zu können.assume that such an area is present. Once this requirement but missing, e.g. B. on the inclined plate of a drawing machine, on the way, etc., these devices must then be held with one hand and operated with the other To be able to operate by hand.
ns wäre nun ein Fortschritt, wenn auch in solchen Fällen für die benutzung der Geräte nur eine Hand erforderlich sein würde.ns would now be a step forward, albeit for use in such cases only one hand would be required of the devices.
Der Gebrauchswert der Geräte könnte dadurch wesentlich erhöht werden.This could significantly increase the utility value of the devices.
Gegenstand der erfindung ist der Vorschlag, die Bedienungselemente so anzuordnen und das Gerätgehäuse so auszubilden, daß es möglich sein wird, solchermaßen gestaltete Geräte mit nur einer Hand gleichzeitig zu halten und zu bedienen.The subject of the invention is the proposal, the controls to be arranged and to design the device housing so that it will be possible in such a way to hold and operate designed devices with just one hand at the same time.
Für eine diesem Ziel entsprechende Gestaltung der Geräte gibt es verschiedene Möglichkeiten. Entsprechend dem anatomischen w aer Eand dürfte allen jedoch gemeinsam sein, da die 4 Handfinger die Geräteauflage bilden und die Geräte halten und daß der Daumen die Gerätetasten bedient.There are different designs for devices that meet this goal Options. However, according to the anatomical w aer Eand, they should all have one thing in common because the 4 hand fingers form the device support and hold the devices and that the thumb operates the device buttons.
Als Atefinger Kommt grundsätzlich jeder der 4 Handfinger bei entsprechender Gestaltung der Geräte infrage, ei der 'anl des kleinen Fingers als Haltefinger würde die größte Spanne zwischen den fingern einer Hand ausgenutzt werden (Daumen-sleiner Finger). Mittels einer entsprechenden Vorrichtung an den Gerätegehäusen - wie Fingerloch, Fingerschlaufe oder dgl. - liege sich die Geräte außerdem im Zusammenwirken mit den anderen 3 Mittelfingern, die die Geräte dann stützten und ihnen als Auflage dienten, leicht in die Lage bringen, die zur bedienung jeweils am günstigsten wäre.In principle, each of the 4 hand fingers comes as an Atefinger with the appropriate Design of the devices in question, if the little finger would act as a holding finger the greatest possible span between the fingers of one hand can be used (thumb-sleiner Finger). By means of a corresponding device on the device housing - such as a finger hole, Finger loop or the like - the devices are also in interaction with the other 3 middle fingers, which then supported the devices and used them as a support served, easily put in the position that would be most convenient to operate.
3ei der Gestaltung der Geräte ist weiterhin zu bedenken, daß sie auch als Einhandgeräte unverändert gut als Tischgeräte benutzbar bleiben müssen und daß sie als Taschengeräte keine Vorspringenden Teile erhalten sollten0 anmerkung Anstelle von Zeichnungen werden Modelle eingereicht, weil soWhen designing the devices, it must also be borne in mind that they also as one-hand devices must remain usable as table-top devices and that As pocket devices, they should not have any protruding parts0 note instead of drawings, models are submitted because so
