Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a mobile phone cover and a mobile phone having the same, and a mobile phone cover and a mobile phone having the same, which enable a mobile phone operation by performing a touch input or a motion input on an input portion of the mobile phone cover mounted on the mobile phone main body.
본 발명의 배경기술은 대한민국 등록특허공보 제 1102087호(2012. 1. 4 공고)에 개시되어 있다. Background art of the present invention is disclosed in Republic of Korea Patent Publication No. 1102087 (January 4, 2012).
터치스크린 또는 터치 패널이란 키보드를 사용하지 않고 화면(스크린)에 나타난 문자나 특정 위치에 사람의 손 또는 물체와 같은 입력수단이 접촉(터치)하는 경우, 터치 위치를 검출하여 저장된 소프트웨어를 사용하여 특정 처리를 할 수 있도록 하는 유저 인터페이스 장치를 말한다. Touch screen or touch panel means that when input means such as a person's hand or an object touches (touches) a character displayed on the screen (screen) or a specific position without using a keyboard, the touch position is detected and stored using software. A user interface device that allows processing.
터치 패널의 예로서 압력식(Resistvie Overlay), 표면초음파 방식(Surface Acoustic Wave), 정전용량방식(Capacitive Overlay) 및 적외선 방식(Infrared Beam)의 터치 패널이 있다. 최근에는 보다 복잡하고 다양한 인터페이스를 가능하게 하기 위하여, 여러 터치 포인트들을 추출하는 멀티 터치 입력 방식이 등장하였다.Examples of the touch panel include a resistive overlay, a surface acoustic wave, a capacitive overlay, and an infrared beam. Recently, in order to enable more complex and various interfaces, a multi-touch input method for extracting several touch points has emerged.
그런데, 터치패널을 구비한 종래의 휴대폰에서는, 사용자가 문자를 입력하거나 어떤 아이콘을 선택하여 특정 명령을 실행하는 등의 작업을 함에 있어 다소의 불편함이 존재하거나 잘못된 입력 작업이 이루어지는 등의 문제점이 있었다. By the way, in the conventional mobile phone having a touch panel, there is a problem that the user enters a character or selects an icon and executes a specific command, such as some inconvenience or wrong input operation is performed. there was.
종래의 휴대폰에서는 화면을 이동하거나 특정 아이콘을 선택할 때, 사용자가 주로 오른속 엄지를 사용하여 비교적 넓은 영역의 전면 터치 패널을 두루 옮겨 다니면서 작업을 수행해야 했다. 그에 따라 사용자는 자신이 원하는 아이콘이 아닌 다른 아이콘을 선택하는 실수를 범하기가 쉬웠고, 또한 전편 패널의 상부 가장자리 부근에 있는 아이콘을 선택하고자 하는 경우 때에 따라서는 엄지 부분이 아닌 손의 다른 부분에 터치패널이 접촉되어 원하지 않는 어플리케이션이 수행되는 등의 문제점이 있었다. 그리고, 이러한 문제점은 휴대폰의 패널 크기가 증가하면서 더욱 두드러지게 나타나고 있다.In a conventional mobile phone, when a user moves a screen or selects a specific icon, the user has to move around the front touch panel of a relatively large area by using his right thumb. As a result, it was easy for the user to make a mistake in selecting an icon other than the one he wanted, and in some cases, when the user wanted to select an icon near the upper edge of the front panel, the touch panel was placed on the other part of the hand instead of the thumb. There was a problem such that an unwanted application is performed by contact. This problem is more prominent as the panel size of the mobile phone increases.
또한, 종래의 휴대폰 커버는 휴대폰에 장착되거나 설치되어 단순히 휴대폰을 외부의 충격이나 타격으로부터 보호하는 기능만을 수행하였다. 이에 따라, 사용자가 휴대폰 커버를 휴대폰에 장착한 상태에서 휴대폰을 조작하는 데에 있어 다소 불편함이 존재하고 사용자에게 휴대폰 사용상의 편의를 제공하는 데 한계가 있는 등의 문제점이 있었다.In addition, the conventional mobile phone cover is mounted on or installed in the mobile phone to perform only a function to simply protect the mobile phone from external impact or hit. Accordingly, there is a problem that the user is somewhat uncomfortable in operating the mobile phone while the mobile phone cover is mounted on the mobile phone and there is a limit in providing the user with convenience in using the mobile phone.
