MULTI-FUNCTION FOLDER STYLE PORTABLE PHONE}

The present invention relates to a multi-functional clamshell cell phone, and more particularly, to provide a clamshell cell phone that can be used with an external device such as a digital camera, an MP3 player, a game pack, etc., thereby maintaining the performance, size and shape of the basic cell phone. The present invention relates to a multi-functional foldable mobile phone that can implement various multimedia with extended additional functions.

In general, a mobile phone refers to a mobile phone that can randomly move in a mobile communication service area and talk to a general subscriber or another mobile phone through a base station.

Due to the rapid technological development, these mobile phones are becoming more diverse and faster.

In particular, recently released mobile phones are capable of communication of various video multimedia in addition to a call function, including additional functions such as data transmission and reception, electronic notebooks, etc., are recognized as a necessity of modern people.

In addition, the size of mobile phones is gradually becoming smaller, and due to the development of multimedia technology, it is possible to take pictures and store pictures by using games, e-mails, and digital cameras on mobile phones, and to send pictures to others. Are gradually being added.

In this way, consumers' demand for mobile phones with highly developed functionality and practicality has become more and more preferred. Since these additional functions applied to conventional mobile phones are mostly configured directly inside the mobile phone device, the mobile phones are inevitably growing. It is taken as a natural phenomenon.

Moreover, the new phones that are recently released make people more mentally alienated, who rarely use complex additional functions, and the high-performance phones, which are unnecessary at all, are economically damaging to consumers who purchase them. It is pointed out as a problem to be caused.

Moreover, due to the limitations of technology, the additional functions currently applied to mobile phones are not only difficult to reduce any more, but also have a problem in that the performance of the added devices is extremely limited and the effectiveness of use is not felt.

The present invention is devised to solve all the problems of the prior art as described above,

An object of the present invention is to provide a folding mobile phone, by forming a predetermined mounting portion having an opening and closing means to enable the use of the external device (digital camera, MP3 player, game pack, etc.) on the upper surface of the cover, It is to provide a multifunctional folder type mobile phone that can realize various multimedia environments with additional functions.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a multi-functional clamshell cell phone which can reduce the manufacturing cost by maintaining the shape and size of the basic cell phone as it is, and excluding additional functions added in the cell phone device.

The present invention for achieving the above object is a cover with a liquid crystal display that can be folded, rotatably coupled to the main body and a variety of parts built-in with the substrate, one end of the main body is hinged, In the clamshell mobile phone comprising: a predetermined mounting portion provided on the cover to selectively mount a separate external device and a protective cover, the mounting portion for selectively opening and closing the external device and protective cover It is characterized by including the opening and closing means.
