DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a portable telephone having a multi-faceted lighting function.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, portable telephones have been increasingly used and will continue to be used in the future.

[0003] Portable telephones have no restrictions on the time zone in which they are used, and are used in various places.

[0004] For this reason, it is often used at night or in a dark place.

[0005] In such a case, it is extremely convenient to make the portable telephone have a multi-faceted lighting function, but in the past, the portable telephone has used a display lamp for indicating the operating status or illumination of the dial. However, there has not been provided a configuration that can also be used for ambient lighting or that can provide lighting that makes the use of a mobile phone more convenient.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention focuses on the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and has a structure which has a function of illuminating the surroundings and which makes the use of a portable telephone more convenient by using the illuminating function. The task is to provide.

[0007]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, according to the structure of the present invention, a lighting bulb is connected to an anode and a cathode of a battery provided in a portable telephone by wiring, and is turned on by a switch. And a portable flash phone based on the fact that the light bulb can be illuminated at least in the direction of the front side of the mobile phone that is in contact with the ear.

[0008]

FIG. 1 shows a basic configuration of the present invention. The present invention includes a light bulb 1 having a lighting function such as a flashlight, and the light bulb 1 is a portable telephone. The battery is connected to the anode and the cathode of the battery 2 by wiring, and ON / OFF is selected by the switch 3.

By providing such an illuminable light bulb 1, the user can use the light bulb for surrounding lighting as well as the flashlight as necessary, and also as the portable telephone 2 as necessary. According to the present invention, the two functions of the flashlight and the mobile phone 2 can be shared.

In the present invention, when the side where the light bulb 1 is in contact with the ear is the front side, at least the front side is installed in a direction in which illumination can be performed. Usually, when the user holds the mobile phone 2 in his hand, the rear side, which is the side in contact with the mouth, is gripped by hand, and the side in contact with the ear is often directed to the front side of the body. are doing.

Hereinafter, specific examples of the present invention will be further described with reference to examples.

[0012]

Embodiment 1 Embodiment 1 is basically characterized in that the position and irradiation direction of the bulb 1 can be adjusted.

FIGS. 2 to 6 show a specific example of the configuration of the first embodiment. As shown in FIG. 2, in the first embodiment, the mobile phone 2 includes a movable bar 4 which can expand and contract in the front-rear direction. The light bulb 1 is installed on the front side (mostly the tip) of the moving bar 4.

When the portable telephone 2 is used as a flashlight by arranging the light bulb 1 at such a position, the user can illuminate a considerably front position, and the user's hand can be illuminated. It is also possible to illuminate local positions that cannot be reached.

In the first embodiment, as shown in FIG.
By providing the rotary joint 5 on the front side or the tip of the moving bar 4 and installing the light bulb 1 on the front side of the rotary joint 5, the angle of illumination can be adjusted.

As shown in FIG. 3, when one rotating joint 5 is provided, it is possible to select a left-right direction (angular direction) along a one-dimensional direction (for example, the surface of the mobile phone 2). However, as shown in FIG. 4, two rotating joints 5 are provided, and the bulb 1 is moved from the moving bar 4 to the second rotating joint 5.
, The total illumination angle in two dimensions can be adjusted.

As described above, by adjusting the position and the direction in which the light bulb 1 illuminates, the user of the portable telephone 2 can operate the portable telephone 2 even in the dark as shown in FIG.
The transmission can be performed by irradiating the part of the push button 21.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 6, by irradiating a book, reference material 8 or the like from an appropriate position and angle in the dark, communication can be continued while referring to the book or reference material 8. It becomes possible.

[0019]

Embodiment 2 Embodiment 2 is basically characterized in that a reflecting mirror 7 for reflecting the light emitted from the bulb 1 is provided, and the position and angle of reflection are adjustable.

FIGS. 7 to 11 show a specific example of the configuration of the second embodiment. As shown in FIG. 7, in the second embodiment, the mobile phone 2 includes a movable bar 4 that can expand and contract in the front-rear direction. In addition, the reflection mirror 7 is installed on the front side (in most cases, the tip) of the moving bar 4, and can adjust the position in the front-rear direction for performing reflection.

In the second embodiment, as shown in FIG.
By providing the rotary joint 5 on the front side or the front end of the moving bar 4 and installing the reflecting mirror 7 on the front side (in most cases, the front end) of the rotary joint 5, the angle of reflection can be adjusted.

As shown in FIG. 8, when one rotating joint 5 is provided, it is possible to select a left-right direction (an angular direction) along a one-dimensional direction (for example, the surface of the mobile phone 2). However, as shown in FIG. 9, when two rotating joints 5 are provided and the reflecting mirror 7 is installed on the second rotating joint 5 from the moving bar 4, the two-dimensional total reflection angle can be adjusted. .

As described above, by adjusting the position and direction in which the reflection mirror 7 reflects light, the user of the mobile phone 2 can operate the push button 21 of the mobile phone 2 even in the dark as shown in FIG. Transmission can be performed by illuminating the portion.

Further, as shown in FIG. 11, by reflecting books and reference materials 8 from appropriate positions and angles in the dark, communication can be continued while referring to the books and reference materials 8. It becomes possible.

[0025]

Embodiment 3 In Embodiments 1 and 2 described above, the moving bar 4
Is shown irrespective of the antenna 6 used in the mobile phone 2, but it is naturally possible to use the antenna 6 as the moving bar 4 as well.

That is, the light bulb 1 is installed at the front side or the front end of the antenna 6 as in the first embodiment, or the reflection mirror 7 is installed as in the second embodiment, whereby the first embodiment is performed.
In addition, the same operation and effect as those of the second embodiment can be exhibited, whereby the antenna 6 can be used in various ways.

[0027]

According to the present invention, not only a flashlight and a portable telephone can be used together but also transmission in the dark is possible. Furthermore, the portable telephone can be used while referring to books and reference materials in the dark. The fact that communication by a telephone is also possible has multiple effects.

As described above, although the present invention has a relatively simple configuration, it has very significant uses, and its value is enormous.
