In addition, the portable terminal is an electronic device commonly used anywhere in the world, men and women, and is being recognized as a necessity to carry around at all times.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Conventional portable devices are classified into various types in appearance. For example, portable devices are classified as bar-type, flip-type, or folder-type communication devices according to their appearance. The bar-type communication device means that the single housing is configured as a bar-type, the flip-type communication device means that the flip is rotatably configured by the hinge device in the bar-type housing, the folder-type communication device is It is meant that the folder in a single bar-shaped housing is configured to be rotatably connected and folded by a hinge device.

In addition, portable devices may be classified into either a neck wearable type or a wrist wear type according to a body wearing position or a wearing manner. A necklace-type communication device refers to a portable method of wearing a terminal around a neck using a string, and a wrist-wear type communication device refers to a portable method of wearing a terminal around a wrist.

In addition, portable devices may be classified as rotation-type or sliding-type communication devices according to the opening and closing method. The rotation-type communication device means that the two housings are rotatably connected and opened while remaining facing each other, and the sliding-type communication device means that the two housings are opened and closed by sliding movement in the longitudinal direction. it means. The variously classified communication devices listed above will be readily understood by those of ordinary skill in the art.

In addition, conventional portable devices are being converted into structures capable of communicating high-speed data in addition to voice communication functions. That is, as the needs of consumers increase, the service will be provided using a wireless communication technology that transmits high speed data.

At present, the camera lens is adopted in the conventional portable device and the transmission of the video signal and the like is in progress. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In general, portable devices are equipped with a camera lens module externally or internally so that video call with a counterpart or photographing a desired subject can be performed.

However, when the bar-type portable apparatus is described as an example in the conventional portable apparatus, there are disadvantages as follows. The conventional bar type portable device has a structure in which a speaker device, a display device, a plurality of keys and a microphone device are sequentially arranged on a bar type main body, and in particular, considering the ergonomic distance between the user's ear and the mouth, the top of the main body And a speaker device at the bottom of the main body and the main body, respectively. In other words, the conventional portable device required a body length of at least 10 cm or more. This is because the distance between the average user's ear and the mouth is 10 cm or more. Due to such a requirement, the conventional portable device has a disadvantage in that the main body vertical length is downsized.

The folding type portable device has appeared due to the disadvantages of the miniaturization of the bar type, which is advantageous for miniaturization of the main body, in particular, the miniaturization of the main body up and down, but the thickness of the main body and the folder is overlapped. have. Such a structure is easy to hold in a hand, but is inconvenient to carry in a pocket, and has a problem in that the hinge device connecting the main body and a folder is easily exposed to damage when dropped.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a portable device having a folding receiver, which is advantageous for miniaturization.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a portable device that is foldable toward the bottom of the main body to reduce the upper and lower lengths of the main body, which is advantageous for miniaturization.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide a portable device which has been miniaturized to improve portability.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a portable device,

A main body including a display device on a top surface, a plurality of keys, and a battery pack on a bottom surface thereof; And

And a folding receiver including a receiver rotatably connected to an upper side of the display device and folded toward the bottom of the main body to be adjacent to the battery pack, or extended to an upper surface of the main body and spaced apart from an upper end of the main body.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in detail a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
