Abstract

The end station has a first plate (1) pivoting on a second rectangular plate of the same size. The first plate has a display system, a loudspeaker and a keyboard. A swiveling joint at the center allows the first plate to turn relative to the second plate. Normally the first plate covers the second plate. When the plates are aligned at 90 degrees to each other, extra keyboards on the second plate are uncovered.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Kommunikationsendgerät mit zwei übereinanderliegenden im Wesentlichen quaderförmigen länglichen Einheiten, die über ein Drehgelenk im Zentrum des Kommunikationsgeräts drehbar miteinander verbunden sind.The The present invention relates to a communication terminal having two superimposed ones essentially cuboid elongated Units that over a hinge in the center of the communication device are rotatably connected to each other.

Speziell bei sehr kleinen Kommunikationsendgeräten fehlt eine ausreichend große Fläche zur Unterbringung von notwendigen Bedien- und Funktionselementen, besonders da deren Zahl mit dem immer größer werdenden Anwendungsmöglichkeiten immens ansteigt. Daher sind Kommunikationsgeräte vorgeschlagen worden, welche aus zwei übereinanderliegenden im Wesentlichen quaderförmigen länglichen Einheiten bestehen, die über ein Drehgelenk im Zentrum des Kommunikationsgeräts drehbar miteinander verbunden sind.specially with very small communication terminals is missing a sufficient size area for the accommodation of necessary operating and functional elements, especially since their number with the ever-increasing application possibilities immense increases. Therefore, communication devices have been proposed which from two superimposed essentially cuboid elongated Units exist that over a hinge in the center of the communication device rotatably connected to each other are.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es nun, ein Drehgelenk anzugeben, welches zwischen den zwei Einheiten angeordnet ist und diese mit möglichst geringem Abstand zusammenhält.task the present invention is now to provide a rotary joint, which is arranged between the two units and this with preferably keeps small distance together.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine in den 4 – 10 beschriebenen Konstruktion gelöst, bei der beim Verdrehen beide Einheiten auseinander rasten (sich voneinander entfernen) und nach der Drehung wieder einrasten (wieder in ihre Ausgangshöhe zurückrasten).This task is done by a in the 4 - 10 in which, when twisted, both units snap apart (move away from each other) and re-engage after rotation (snap back to their original height).

Das Drehgelenk wird über Kunststoffteile und/oder Stanzbiegeteile zusammengehalten und verriegelt. Das Drehgelenk ermöglicht auf einfache Weise die Durchführung notwendiger elektrischer Leitungen.The Swivel joint is over Plastic parts and / or stamped and bent parts held together and locked. The swivel joint allows easy to carry out necessary electrical lines.

Durch eine Verbindung über ein flaches Kunststoffteil wird über Noppen der Hub zwischen den zwei Gelenkplatten gewährleistet. Unter oder zwischen beiden Gelenkplatten ist eine Feder mit einem Verriegelungsteil eingesetzt um das Einschnappen zu erzeugen. Der Anschlag „90°" ist über Dome und Nut oder über Blechlaschen verwirklicht.By a connection over a flat plastic part is over Nubs of the stroke ensured between the two hinge plates. Under or between two hinge plates is a spring with a Locking part used to create the snap. Of the Stop "90 °" is above dome and Groove or over Metal plates realized.

Durch die flache Aufbauweise des Gelenks wird erreicht, dass über und unter dem Gelenk Komponenten platziert werden können, so dass ein sehr flacher Aufbau eines zweiteiligen Kommunikationsgerätes möglich ist.By the flat construction of the joint is achieved that over and under the joint components can be placed, making a very shallower Structure of a two-part communication device is possible.

Zusätzlich kann das Drehgelenk, welches in einer Plattenseite fest montiert ist, noch spielfrei in die andere Plattenseite eingerastet oder eingeschnappt werden.In addition, can the hinge, which is fixedly mounted in a plate side, locked or snapped into the other side of the plate without any play become.

Dieses Drehgelenk ist ein platzsparendes Bauteil, welches zwei Einheiten eines Kommunikationsgerätes miteinander verbindet und mit einem Hub aus- und wieder einrastet.This Swivel is a space-saving component, which has two units a communication device connects to each other and with a hub and then locked again.

Nachstehend wird das erfindungsgemäße Kommunikationsendgerät anhand eines in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels dargestellt.below the communication terminal according to the invention is based on an embodiment shown in the drawing.

Das Kommunikationsendgerät besteht aus einer oberen Einheit 1 und einer unteren Einheit 2, die über das erfindungsgemäße Drehgelenk miteinander verbunden sind.The communication terminal consists of an upper unit 1 and a lower unit 2 , which are connected to each other via the rotary joint according to the invention.

Durch eine Verbindung über ein flaches Kunststoffteil wird über Noppen der Hub zwischen den zwei Gelenkplatten gewährleistet. Unter oder zwischen beiden Gelenkplatten ist eine Feder mit einem Verriegelungsteil eingesetzt um das Einschnappen zu erzeugen. Der Anschlag „90°" ist über Dome und Nut oder über Blechlaschen verwirklicht. Durch die flache Aufbauweise des Gelenks wird erreicht, dass über und unter dem Gelenk Komponenten platziert werden können, so dass ein sehr flacher Aufbau eines zweiteiligen Kommunikationsgerätes möglich ist. Zusätzlich kann das Drehgelenk, welches in einer Plattenseite fest montiert ist, noch spielfrei in die andere Plattenseite eingerastet oder eingeschnappt werden. Dieses Drehgelenk ist ein platzsparendes Bauteil, welches zwei Einheiten eines Kommunikationsgerätes miteinander verbindet und mit einem Hub aus- und wieder einrastet.Through a connection via a flat plastic part, the stroke between the two hinge plates is ensured by nubs. Below or between both hinge plates, a spring with a locking part is used to create the snap. The "90 °" stop is realized via dome and groove or via metal plates.The flat construction of the joint ensures that components can be placed above and below the joint, thus allowing a very flat construction of a two-part communication device is. In addition, the hinge, which is fixedly mounted in one side of the plate, can still be snapped or snapped into the other side of the plate without play. This swivel joint is a space-saving component, which connects two units of a communication device together and with a hub off and then locked.
