Patent number: 10871899Abstract: An input accepting device includes operation keys, a character receiving unit, a converting unit, an operation key state detection unit, a timer, and a conversion control unit. The converting unit converts a combination of characters corresponding to the operation keys sequentially operated into another character or word. The operation key state detection unit detects a first timing and a second timing while the user operates the operation key. The first timing is at which a state of the user becomes a state of touching the operation key from a state of not touching the operation key. The second timing is at which a state of the user becomes a state of not touching the operation key after the first timing. The timer detects an elapsed time from the first timing. The conversion control unit causes the conversions with different contents depending on the elapsed time at the second timing.Type: GrantFiled: February 7, 2019Date of Patent: December 22, 2020Assignee: Kyocera Document Solutions Inc.Inventor: Michiko Tashiro
