  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a configuration of a mobile phone terminal device according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

  The mobile phone terminal device according to the first embodiment includes a system control unit 1, a transmission / reception unit 2, a storage unit 3, an operation unit 4, a calling unit 5, a display unit 6, an interface unit 7, a vibration detection unit 8, and an antenna. 9 is provided.

  The system control unit 1 controls the transmission / reception unit 2, the storage unit 3, the operation unit 4, the calling unit 5, the display unit 6, the interface unit 7, and the vibration detection unit 8. The walking safety mode determination means 11 that determines whether or not the provided walking safety mode is on, and whether the vibration detection unit 8 detects walking vibration when it is determined that the walking safety mode is on. A walking vibration detection determining means 12 for determining whether or not, and an operation action presence / absence determining means 13 for determining the presence or absence of an action of the operation by the operation section 4 after it is determined that the vibration detecting section 8 detects a walking vibration. When it is determined that there is an action for the operation, the operation is locked, and a warning message is displayed on the display unit 6 indicating that the operation cannot be performed because the person is walking and dangerous. Stationary in a safe place if desired operation to display an indication message to use the mobile telephone terminal apparatus and an operation lock / message display unit 14.

  The transmission / reception unit 2 demodulates a communication signal (call signal) received via the antenna 9, extracts a digital signal addressed to the terminal device from the multiplexed digital signal obtained by demodulation, and converts it to an analog signal Then, the digital signal is supplied to a receiver (not shown), or a voice signal from a transmitter (not shown) is converted into a digital signal, and the digital signal is multiplexed and radio frequency is modulated and transmitted. Further, when the communication signal is a mail signal, the transmission / reception unit 2 transmits the mail signal and receives the mail signal by predetermined mail signal processing.

  The storage unit 3 stores a phone book indicating the telephone number and name of the other party, an address book indicating the mail address and name of the other party, and character data for displaying characters on the display unit 6. The operation unit 4 has a plurality of various operation keys, and performs key operations for executing telephone transmission, telephone reception, mail transmission, mail reception, and other various functions. The calling unit 5 is for notifying the incoming call by voice, by vibration, or by light. The display unit 6 displays a phone book, address book, time, incoming call number, and other various function items. The interface unit 7 is for transmitting and receiving data to and from an external personal computer. The vibration detection unit 8 detects walking vibration when the user is walking with the mobile phone terminal device.

  FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the vibration detector 8. In FIG. 2, the vibration detection unit 8 includes a contact detection unit 81 and a contact check unit 82, and which of the three types of conductive wires L2, L3, and L4 connecting between them is grounded. If there is no change in the grounded conductor detected by the contact check unit 82, the mobile phone terminal apparatus determines that the mobile phone terminal is in a stationary state, and if there is a change in the type of the grounded conductor, vibration occurs. Since the axis of the detection unit 8 changes with respect to the direction of gravity, when the user carrying the mobile phone terminal is walking, vibration due to walking is detected by the vibration detection unit 8.

  FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing the outer shape of the vibration detection unit 8. The description will be made assuming a rectangular coordinate axis such that the cube is a cube as shown in FIG. 3 and the upper surface of the cube is the XY plane. FIG. 4 shows a cross-sectional view of the cube shown in FIG. 3 divided into two equal parts on the YZ plane (cut along the AA plane). FIG. 5 shows a cross-sectional view of the cube shown in FIG. 3 divided into two equal parts on the YZ plane (cut along the BB plane).

  3, 4, and 5, G1 is a spherical cavity formed in an insulator, and G2 is a spherical conductor that is movably held in the cavity G1 (only the surface of the sphere needs to be a conductor). L1 is a conducting wire grounded in advance, and L2, L3, and L4 are each extended in a circular shape along the inner surface of the spherical cavity G1. The relationship between the radius of the cavity G1, the radius of the conductor G2, and the conductors L1, L2, L3, and L4 is such that when the position of the conductor G2 in the cavity G1 is determined by the direction of gravity, the conductors L2, L3, and L4 Any one of these and only one is dimensioned to be shorted to the grounded conductor L1 via the conductor G2.

  Therefore, if the contact check unit 82 detects which of the conductors L2, L3, and L4 is grounded, it can detect where the conductor G2 is located with respect to the cavity G1, and the ground If the type of the conducting wire does not change for a predetermined time, it can be determined that the mobile phone terminal device is stationary. If the type of the grounding conducting wire changes, the user carrying the mobile phone terminal device walks. In particular, it can be determined that the vibration due to walking is detected by the vibration detection unit 8.

  FIG. 6 is a flowchart for explaining the processing in the walking safety mode in the first embodiment. The walk safety mode process will be described with reference to this flowchart and FIGS.

  First, the walking safety mode determination means 11 of the system control unit 1 determines that the walking safety mode is on because the walking safety mode is set to on as a default (step S1), and the walking of the system control unit 1 The vibration detection determination means 12 determines whether or not the vibration detection unit 8 has detected walking vibration (step S2).

  Here, when the user starts walking, the vibration detection unit 8 detects walking vibration and outputs a vibration detection signal by the operation described with reference to FIGS. Thereby, the walking vibration detection determination means 12 of the system control unit 1 determines that the vibration detection unit 8 detects the walking vibration by inputting the vibration detection signal. Then, the operation action presence / absence determination means 13 of the system control unit 1 determines whether or not there is an operation action by the operation unit 4 (step S3).

  When it is determined that there is an action for the operation, the operation lock / message display means 14 of the system operation unit 1 locks the operation, and the display unit 6 indicates that the operation cannot be performed because it is walking and dangerous. A warning message is displayed, and a message for instructing to use the mobile phone terminal device at a safe place is displayed if an operation is desired (step S4).

  On the other hand, when the walking safety mode determination unit 11 of the system control unit 1 determines that the walking safety mode is OFF in step S1, the system control unit 1 does not perform the walking safety mode processing and performs normal operation. Processing (processing for a telephone, which is the original function of the mobile phone terminal device) is performed (step S5). Note that the default for setting the walking safety mode is on. Thus, unless the user sets the walking safety mode to OFF, the walking safety mode is ON and the walking safety mode is working.

  Although it is desirable that the walking safety mode is always turned on forcibly if possible, it is possible to switch the walking safety mode from on to off because there may be a malfunction of the vibration detector 8 or the like. For example, when making a phone call while walking indoors, if the walking safety mode is on, the vibration detection unit 8 detects the same walking vibration as when the user is walking outside. This is the same as the false detection of the vibration detection unit 8, thereby stopping the original function of the mobile phone terminal device and making a telephone call. Therefore, when the user is in the room, if the walking safety mode is turned off, it can be used as a normal mobile phone terminal device.

  In addition, after the operation of the phone and mail is finished with the walking safety mode turned off, the user may turn on the walking safety mode, but if you forget to switch it on, even if you walk outside, Since the walking safety mode does not work, if the target operation is completed after turning off the walking safety mode, if the system control unit 1 has a function to turn on the walking safety mode after a predetermined time, it is automatically There is no problem because the walking safety mode can be switched from off to on.

  In step S2, when the walking vibration detection determination unit 12 determines that the vibration detection unit 8 has not detected walking vibration, the system control unit 1 performs normal operation processing on the mobile phone terminal device. Control is performed as follows (step S6). That is, even if the walking safety mode is on, if the user carrying the mobile phone terminal device is not walking, the vibration detection unit 8 will not detect walking vibrations. Perform operation processing.

  As described above, according to the first embodiment, if the walking safety mode is turned on and the user carrying the mobile phone terminal is walking, if the user operates the mobile phone terminal, The operation is locked, and a warning message is displayed on the display section indicating that it is impossible to operate because it is walking and dangerous, and if you want to operate it, you can use the mobile phone terminal device in a safe place. An instruction message is displayed, and the user can no longer operate the mobile phone terminal device while walking. Also, if the message is viewed, the user can understand why the operation cannot be performed now and prevent dangerous actions. This also leads to improvement of the user's walking manners.

  FIG. 7 is a block diagram showing a configuration of a mobile phone terminal apparatus according to the second embodiment of the present invention.

  The mobile phone terminal device according to the second embodiment includes a system control unit 1, a transmission / reception unit 2, a storage unit 3, an operation unit 4, a calling unit 5, a display unit 6, an interface unit 7, a vibration detection unit 8, and an antenna. 9 is provided. 7, components corresponding to those shown in FIG. 1 are given the same reference numerals, and descriptions thereof are omitted.

  The system control unit 1 controls the transmission / reception unit 2, the storage unit 3, the operation unit 4, the calling unit 5, the display unit 6, the interface unit 7, and the vibration detection unit 8. Vehicle safety mode determination means 15 for determining whether or not the provided vehicle safety mode is on, and whether the vibration detection unit 8 detects engine vibration when it is determined that the vehicle safety mode is on. Engine vibration detection determining means 16 for determining whether or not, and an operation action presence / absence determining means 17 for determining whether or not there is an action of operation by the operation section 4 after it is determined that the vibration detecting section 8 detects engine vibration. When it is determined that there is an action for the operation, the operation is locked, and a warning message is displayed on the display unit 6 indicating that the operation cannot be performed because the vehicle is driving and dangerous. , And an operation lock / message display unit 18 to display a message instructing to use the mobile phone terminal off the engine in a safe place if desired operation.

  In the first embodiment, the vibration detection unit 8 detects walking vibration when the user is walking with the mobile phone terminal device. In the second embodiment, the user detects the mobile phone terminal device. If the engine is running when you are in the car and carry the engine, you will detect engine vibrations. A distinction between walking vibration and engine vibration can be made by frequency. That is, when a human is walking, the vibration pattern is due to the body moving up and down, but in the case of an engine, the vibration pattern is due to movement up, down, left and right, and the engine vibration is per unit time. The frequency is much higher than walking vibration. Therefore, if the frequency of the vibration detection signal from the vibration detection unit 8 is equal to or higher than a predetermined frequency (a frequency in an idling state of the engine), the engine vibration detection determination unit 16 of the system control unit 1 It can be determined that engine vibration has been detected.

  FIG. 8 is a flowchart for explaining the processing in the vehicle safety mode in the second embodiment. The vehicle safety mode process will be described with reference to this flowchart and FIG.

  First, the vehicle safety mode determination means 11 of the system control unit 1 determines that the vehicle safety mode is on because the vehicle safety mode is set to on as a default (step N1), and the engine of the system control unit 1 The vibration detection determination means 16 determines whether or not the vibration detection unit 8 detects engine vibration (step N2).

  When the user starts the engine, the vibration detection unit 8 detects engine vibration and outputs a vibration detection signal. Thereby, the engine vibration detection determination means 16 of the system control unit 1 determines that the vibration detection unit 8 has detected the engine vibration by inputting the vibration detection signal. Then, the operation action presence / absence determining means 17 of the system control unit 1 determines whether or not there is an operation action by the operation unit 4 (step N3).

  When it is determined that there is an action for the operation, the operation lock / message display means 18 of the system operation unit 1 locks the operation, and the display unit 6 indicates that the operation cannot be performed because it is in operation and dangerous. A warning message is displayed, and if an operation is desired, a message instructing to turn off the engine and use the mobile phone terminal device in a safe place is displayed (step N4).

  On the other hand, when the vehicle safety mode determination unit 15 of the system control unit 1 determines that the vehicle safety mode is OFF in step N1, the system control unit 1 performs normal operation without performing the vehicle safety mode processing. Processing (processing for a telephone, which is an original function of the mobile phone terminal device) is performed (step N5). The default for setting the vehicle safety mode is turned on. Thus, unless the user sets the vehicle safety mode to OFF, the vehicle safety mode is ON and the vehicle safety mode is working.

  Although it is desirable to always turn on the vehicle safety mode forcibly if possible, it is possible to switch the vehicle safety mode from on to off because there is a possibility of malfunction of the vibration detector 8 or the like. For example, when making a phone call when the engine is running but the car is stopped, if the vehicle safety mode is on, the vibration detection unit 8 detects engine vibration as engine vibration during operation. This detection is similar to the false detection of the vibration detection unit 8, thereby stopping the original function of the mobile phone terminal device and making a telephone call in the car. Therefore, when the user is in the vehicle while the vehicle is stopped even if the engine is running, the vehicle can be used as a normal mobile phone terminal device if the vehicle safety mode is turned off.

  In addition, after the operation of telephone and e-mail with the driving safety mode turned off, the user may turn on the driving safety mode, but if the user forgets to switch it on, the driving safety mode If the system control unit 1 has a function to turn on the driving safety mode after a predetermined time after the driving safety mode is turned off after the driving safety mode is turned off, the driving safety mode is automatically set. Can be switched from off to on.

  In Step N2, when it is determined by the engine vibration detection determination means 16 that the vibration detection unit 8 has not detected engine vibration, the system control unit 1 causes the mobile phone terminal device to perform normal operation processing. (Step N6). That is, even if the vehicle safety mode is on, if the engine is not running, the vibration detection unit 8 does not detect engine vibration, so the mobile phone terminal device performs normal operation processing.

  As described above, according to the second embodiment, if the vehicle safety mode is turned on, the mobile phone terminal device can be operated when a user who is carrying the mobile phone terminal device is driving. If the operation is performed, the operation is locked, and a warning message indicating that the operation cannot be performed because the operation is dangerous is displayed on the display unit. If the operation is desired, the engine is turned off in a safe place and the mobile phone terminal device A message instructing the user to use the phone is displayed, and the user cannot operate the mobile phone terminal device while driving. This can also improve the driving manners of the user.

  In addition, although walk safety mode was demonstrated in 1st Embodiment and vehicle safety mode was demonstrated in 2nd Embodiment, the mode of both walk safety mode and vehicle safety mode is provided in the mobile telephone terminal device of this invention. The effects of both embodiments can be obtained if the walking safety mode is set when the user walks outside and the vehicle safety mode is set when the user drives the vehicle.
