1a, 1b, 1c figure show mobile phone 100 of the present invention, it comprises a main frame 10, a flip 20, a start assembly 30, a magnetic force generation component 40, a hinge 50 and a circuit board 60, and wherein start assembly 30, magnetic force generation component 40 and hinge 50 constitute opening device of the present invention.

Main frame 10 is the basic modules for mobile phone 100, is provided with the required basic function of mobile phone in it, and is formed with one first hole 11 and one the 3rd hole 12 thereon; Flip 20 is arranged on the main frame 10 in rotating mode, and is formed with one second hole 21 thereon.

Start assembly 30 comprises a switch 31 and a button 32, and wherein switch 31 is positioned on the circuit board 60 and button 32 corresponding positions, and couples with magnetic force generation component 40, after button 32 is pressed, is activated thereupon and transmits signal; Button 32 to be can being arranged at main frame 10 sides with the mode that switch 31 separates, and is positioned at and switch 31 corresponding positions, and button 32 is required assemblies of pressing when desiring to open flip 20 as the user, which is provided with a post 321 and uses starting switch 31; That is under general state, button 32 separates with switch 31, and when desiring to open flip 20, but user's pressing keys 32 makes button 32 contact with switch 31, and then starting switch 31, and after external force removed, button 32 separated with switch 31 again.

Magnetic force generation component 40 is arranged on the circuit board 60 in the main frame 10, and be positioned at hinge 50 belows, and couple with the switch 31 of start assembly 30, after flowing through magnetic force generation component 40, electric current can produce magnetic field, required magnetic repulsive interaction in the time of can providing first cams 51 in the hinge 50 to move axially will be appreciated that magnetic force generation component 40 can be a coil.

Circuit board 60 is arranged in the main frame 10, and be provided with magnetic force generation component 40 and switch 31 thereon, its function is that the electric signal of mobile phone 10 is handled, and is included in to push button after 32, starting switch 31 transmits signals, distributes the electric current magnetic force generation component 40 of flowing through to produce magnetic fields.

Hinge 50 can provide flip 20 to open required torsion, that is, when magnetic force generation component 40 produces magnetic force, hinge 50 can make flip 20 rotate and open with respect to main frame 10, and with reference to 2a, 2b, 2c figure, hinge 50 comprises one first cam 51, one second cam 52, one first spring 53, a hinge cover 54, one second spring 55, a bar 56 and two E shapes ring 57.

First cam 51 is arranged in first hole 11 of main frame 10 in the mode that can move between a primary importance (shown in 2b, 3,4a figure) and a second place (shown in 4b figure), first cam 51 has a wedge-shaped slot 511 and a highlight bar 512, and wedge-shaped slot 511 is formed on the highlight bar 512, shown in Fig. 2 a; Again, will be appreciated that first cam 51 has magnetic, and the setting of its magnetic pole as shown in Figure 3, is identical with magnetic force generation component 40,, produce mutual expelling force with when magnetic force generation component 40 produces magnetic force.

Second cam 52 is with can be in one the 3rd position (as 2b, 3, shown in the 4a figure) and one the 4th position (shown in 4d figure) between the mode of rotating be arranged in second hole 21 of flip 20, second cam 52 has a wedge shape projecting block 521, one hollow bulb 522, and one second accommodation section 523, the highlight bar 512 of hollow bulb 522 wherein in order to hold first cam 51, and formation one hypotenuse 523a in second accommodation section 523, its can with end 531 butts of first spring 53, and hypotenuse 523a is towards hinge cover 54, with when flip 20 is closed, first spring 54 is pushed back in first accommodation section 541 of hinge cover 54, this will be in following explanation; Again, second cam 52 does not have magnetic.

First spring 53 is arranged in the hinge cover 54, in order to second cam 52 by the 3rd rotated position to the four positions, this will be in following explanation; Hinge cover 54 is arranged in the 3rd hole 12 of main frame 10, and has one first accommodation section 541.

Second spring 55 is arranged in first cam 51, and with so that first cam 51 is got back to primary importance, this will be in following explanation; Axle 56 passes second spring 55, first cam 51, second cam 52, first spring 53 and hinge cover 54 in regular turn, and by E shape ring 57 is arranged on the axle 56, makes axle 56 be fixed in hinge cover 54.

The formation of mobile phone 100 of the present invention below illustrates its operating principle as mentioned above.

With reference to 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d figure, when mobile phone 100 shown in Fig. 1 c, when being in closed condition, first cam 51 is positioned at primary importance, and second cam 52 be positioned at the 3rd position and with 51 driving fits of first cam, shown in 4a figure, this moment first spring 53 be in the pretwist state, and its end 531 is against in first accommodation section 541 of hinge cover 54, shown in Fig. 2 b; When desire is opened flip 20, behind button 32 trigger switches 31, it transmits the process chip (not icon) of signal to the circuit board 60, then sends electric current, the electric current magnetic generation component 40 of flowing through, and generation magnetic field, first cam 51 of hinge 50 produces mutual repulsion effect with the magnetic field of magnetic generation component 40 at this moment, and along moving axially to the second place, second spring 55 is compressed, shown in 4b figure, it should be noted that first cam 51 does not produce relative rotation with main frame 10; Then, because first cam 51 moves to the second place, make and become released state by initial closed state between second cam 52 and first cam 51, wedge-shaped slot 511 on first cam 51 contacts with the wedge shape projecting block 521 of second cam 52 at this moment, and second cam 52 is rotated a little, shown in 4c figure, and first accommodation section 541 of hinge cover 54 is left in the end 531 of first spring 53, and move in second accommodation section 523 of second cam 52, make first spring 53 discharge torsion by the pretwist state, and second cam 52 is produced relative rotation to the 4th position, shown in 4d figure, and then drive flip 20 rotations until stopping, and first cam 51 is because the resilience force of second spring 55 is got back to the state with 52 driving fits of second cam again.

Because the mode of flip 20 closures that will open is with known identical, seldom explain at this, it should be noted when making second cam 52 get back to the 3rd position shown in 4a figure by the 4th position shown in 4d figure, be arranged in the end 53 1 of first spring 53 of second accommodation section 523 of second cam 52, can be by the hypotenuse 523a of second accommodation section 523 and forced back towards in first accommodation section 541 of hinge cover 54, shown in Fig. 5 a～5c.

According to formation of the present invention, the user can open the flip of mobile phone easily by magnetic force, and is very convenient.

Will be appreciated that in the above description opening device is to be applied in the mobile phone, but is not limited to this, also can be applicable to the folding type electronic installation that other has flip.

Though the present invention with preferred embodiment openly as above; yet it is not in order to limit the present invention; any those skilled in the art; without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention; when the change that can do some permission and retouching, so protection scope of the present invention is worked as with being as the criterion that claim was defined.
