Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a portable wireless communication device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art While a portable radio telephone is used while being carried, it is often placed on a desk or the like when waiting for a call from the other party or frequently calling. However, since the conventional portable wireless telephone attaches importance to portability, the main body has a thin and flat shape and is rounded as a whole, and is often laid down on a desk.

Next, the portable radio telephone may be dropped due to the user's carelessness, such as during a telephone call or in / out of a pocket. A conventional portable wireless telephone is provided with a hand strap in which one end of a ring-shaped cord is attached to the main body of the apparatus, and the portable wireless telephone is prevented from falling by hooking the hand strap on a hand or a finger.

[0004]

The above-mentioned conventional portable wireless communication device becomes very unnoticeable when placed on a desk or the like, so that it is necessary to use it or it is necessary to pick it up or to receive a call. Even when a need arises, it is difficult to see and there is the inconvenience of being stumped and confused.
Further, in the conventional example, there is also one in which the device body is made foldable and the opening / closing lid is used as a leg portion, but this causes an increase in the size of the hinge portion for rotatably coupling the device body and the opening / closing lid. It was

Further, when the hand strap is used, it is necessary to unfold this string and place it on the arm, which is troublesome, responsive, and storable.

An object of the present invention is to provide a portable wireless communication device which has good holding property and storage property when being carried and has a stand which can be installed on a desk, a hand strap having good responsiveness, or both. Especially.

[0007]

According to the present invention, in order to achieve the above object, a bumper portion, which also includes a grip portion made of a cushioning soft material for preventing falling, is provided on the peripheral side surface of a portable wireless communication device, and further, A hinge part is provided at one end of the bumper part, and the bumper part is provided with a function as a stand that allows the bumper part to rotate and supports the device main body upright, or from a cushioning soft material on the peripheral side surface of the portable wireless communication device. A bumper part that also serves as a grip part for preventing fall is provided, and a hinge part is further provided at one end of this bumper part, and the bumper part is rotatable, and as a hand strap for preventing fall when carrying the device body. Has the function of.

[0008]

In the portable wireless communication device of the present invention, since the stand or the hand strap is also used as the bumper portion attached to the peripheral side surface of the device body, the storability and the quick response are improved. Also, since the main body of the device can be made to stand on its own, it is easily noticeable and can be placed in a state ready for use. Further, the hand strap or the grip can prevent the main body of the apparatus from falling, and the shock can be softened by the bumper section even if the apparatus falls.

[0009]

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 and 2 are perspective views showing a portable wireless communication device as one embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 1 is a state diagram during carrying and talking, and FIG. 2 (a) is mounted on a desk or the like. FIG. 2B shows a state diagram when the hand strap is used, and FIG. 2B shows a state diagram when the hand strap is used.

In these figures, 1 is a device body, 2 is a microphone, 3 is a receiver, 4 is a display, 5 is an operation button, 6 is a bumper, 7 is a grip, 8 is a fulcrum between the bumper 6 and the device body 1, 9 is a stand and 10 is a hand strap.

The bumper 6 rotates around a fulcrum 8 in an arc, and when carrying the device 1 or when making a call, the bumper 6 moves along the peripheral side surface of the device 1 as shown in FIG. The device 1 is protected from an impact caused by dropping the cover.

Further, when actually talking with the device 1 by hand, the bumper 6 has a function as a grip 7 for preventing falling.

Next, when the apparatus 1 is placed on a desk or the like, the bumper 6 rotates about a fulcrum 8 as shown in FIG. 2 to make the apparatus main body stand on its mounting surface. And is used as a stand 9. At this time, the bumper 6 can be rotated in either direction as shown by an arrow A in FIG. 2, and the hinge portion has an angle adjusting function so that the bumper 6 can be adjusted to a position where it is easy to perform a key operation and display confirmation.

FIG. 3 shows a state in which the bumper 6 is used as the hand strap 10. By rotating the bumper 6 around the fulcrum 8 to a position where it can be caught in the hand, the hand strap 10 is formed and the device body 1 can be prevented from falling.

[0015]

In the portable wireless communication device of the present invention, since the bumper portion also serves as a stand or a hand strap, the storability and quick response are good, and the fall prevention and shock resistance are better than those of the conventional portable wireless telephone. Is excellent.
